J.J. Abrams SUPR 8 Trailer to show in Theaters this Weekend?
Hey gang! It looks like this weekend we'll finally get to see a full two-minute trailer for J.J. Abrams new sci-fi film Super 8. This is one of my most anticipated films this year, and I have a feeling it's going to be good. I love everything I've seen from it so far.
According to an unconfirmed report from Comic Book Resources the new trailer will show before Battle: Los Angeles and Red Riding Hood. The Government of Alberta also has a recent listing for a new Super 8 trailer running 2:11 that's on the way.
I'm really looking forward to seeing more of what J.J. Abrams has created for us!
The film is about three siblings who discover footage of an alien in some Super 8 footage they shot. It will also will be a tribute to Spielberg’s 1970’s/1980’s Amblin films, like Close Encounters of a Third Kind and E.T. It's like combining these amazing films with the characters, mystery and supernatural spin of J.J. Abrams.
Here's a description of the film:
The Paramount Pictures release is set in Ohio in 1979 and introduces a troupe of six youngsters who are using a Super 8 camera to make their own zombie movie. One fateful night, their project takes them to a lonely stretch of rural railroad tracks and, as the camera rolls, calamity strikes — a truck collides with an oncoming locomotive and a hellacious derailment fills the night with screaming metal and raining fire. Then something emerges from the wreckage, something decidedly inhuman.
The film project stars Kyle Chandler, Elle Fanning, Ron Eldard, Noah Emmerich, Joel Courtney, Riley Griffiths, Ryan Lee, Zach Mills, Gabriel Basso and AJ Michalka.
The movie will be released in theaters on June 4th 2011. Here's the short TV sport the aired during the Super Bowl.
