I really think we should have a separate vote this summer for top 10 of the decade.
Falling in love is the greatest joy in life. Followed closely by sneaking into a gated community late at night and firing a gun into the air.

No man, it's DEKA this summer (I hope)

Or maybe we could do some kind of film Olympics... each country having a representant (or a couple depending on the country etc) and then a vote? we could figure it out... we need to get some high-brow stuff in there, some films some of us will have never seen

for petes sake

As P mentioned the trailer category is really solid this year.  Interesting to re-watch them now, knowing how the actual movie came out ('sides Inception).   Sure WTWTA is the most ebullient, but Up in the Air is most reflective of the film while still building intrigue.

Also, was anyone else struck by how much they de-gayed the Single Man trailer?  You'd think it was a straight up Firth/Moore romance with all Tom Ford's model friends in bit parts.

Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

He held on. The dolphin and all the rest of its pod turned and swam out to sea, and still he held on. This is it, he thought. Then he remembered that they were air-breathers too. It was going to be all right.
