Hurry up and check this out!

This may not be up for long, so watch it while you can! While the trailer more than likely won’t officially be released online for another week, if you caught the new Indiana Jones, you probably saw the trailer for David Fincher’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button - and wow, does this thing look brilliant. If you already saw this, watch it again. If you haven’t, quit reading and watch it now! It’s one of those rare trailers that just captures something really special.

The movie will be released December 19, 2008 and I have a feeling this movie will make up for the shameful Oscar snub Fincher received for Zodiac.

If this trailer gets you excited, read the entire short story it’s based on, written by one of America’s finest F. Scott Fitzgerald, right here.

The Curious Case of Benjaming Button

This was shown in Front of Indy IV. Slick looking trailer, but there were some very creepy ‘uncanny valley’ moments in there. May be a dealbreaker for the film if they can’t bridge this gap in post production!

I’ve been waiting for this for what feels like 5 years. Looks like a Gilliam or maybe Burton film. I was one of those that was a bit underwhelmed by Zodiac, so I’m looking forward to this even more.
