In the novel, the male character in future segment is suppose to be an Asian character, more specifically, Korean.

Now they are portraying a white guy as Asian character?

Seriously, this kind of hollywood douchebaggery needs to stop.



Because the Wachoski's are known for only letting white people play roles in their films, are you retarded? Just by looking at the trailer, I saw everything but a fucking midget, I don't think they have any prejudice. You are the type of person who cries when you see a black jesus aren't you?

You really aren't bright, are you?

This movie is suppose to be an adaptation of the novel. In the novel, the character is suppose to be Asian. If Star Wars was a novel and the movie was an adaption of the novel, and George Lucas decided to portray Luke Skywalker as a brown Indian man. Then yes I would have a big fucking problem with it.

And who said anything about black jesus? Are you stupid or simply retarded? Which one? Choose one, you must.

Cinematography looks AMAZING from the trailer. While this movie probably isn't for everyone I'll definitely be seeing it.

Yay, thanks to the person who posted the alternate trailer link. Looks kinda silly to me. Not into love as some kind of epic phenomenon transcending time and space. Movie seems a bit too hippy-dippy like that for my tastes, buttttt.. I might like it, and I think my girlfriend would, if it's a decent movie all around. Kinda hard to tell because it's one of those modern cliche trailers with the epic music and scene barrages, snippets of lines to carry it through, packed with hollywood faces. Hollywood films are rarely a success with me, but the wachowski brothers have made it work for me a few times so we'll just have to see.

kaisen you need to chill out.

For once I was actually surprised by a trailer in terms of plot, rather than ooo pretty graphics. Debating whether or not to read the book first now xD

It's "Tom Tykwer", by the way.

But yea, "Tom Hanks, Halle Berry". No thanks. Don't like the two at all.

Give it a read! The book is definitely entertaining, one of the few contemporary novels I was forced to read in undergrad that I've gone back and re-read voluntarily. AND you'll be able to make snide comments about how the film wasn't "true" to the novel on the way out of the theater, which will wow your friends and intimidate your enemies.

I'm looking forward to seeing Frobisher and Ewing on the big screen. I also think that the bad guys from the post apocalyptic storyline look perfect. I predict an awesome movie all-around.
If it were not so, I would have told you.

Damn, how do these directors get a budget like this after speed racer... Movie looks like another clusterfuck aka the fountain. There is no way this movie isn't going to be a bomb.

the book reminds me of if on a winter night a traveler. the movie looks fucking epic though, and i agree it might be better than the dark knight rises...

I am prepared for the awesomeness, the book is good, nothing groundbreaking but the perfect stuff for film treatment. If they get the book right, I'm expecting some Fallout-made-cinema mixed with The Fifth Element and that's legit.

It seems the book was awarded 2 times... Is it worth a read before it comes out ? I don't really trust Hollywood to make good adaptation.

"Dare I say, this movie will triumph Dark Knight Rises for movie of 2012."
You mean this movie will "trump dark knight" or "triumph over dark knight" probably the former.
