this looks like a ridiculous amount of fun.

[Hedji]

I'm looking forward to it. Really was impressed with District 9.

I liked it when it was called Short Circuit, I imagine I'll like it again.

I'm confused...

The first trailer they made it out to look like a light hearted Disney type flick.

Then the second trailer...it shows a much darker theme.

So which is which?

I've only seen one and it looks like a Sci-fi black comedy. I guess you could say the same about District 9 which I loved.

[Hedji]

Yeah, I've seen both trailers. It's weird when they don't quite know how to market something, so they spin it multiple ways.

[Hector]

Yeah, exactly.

It's not usually a good sign when the marketing of a movie seems to swing in opposite directions. I saw a TV commerical for the film and it's hard to tell if the Hugh Jackman character is a good guy or not.

[YoungOnce]

I remember Land of the Lost being marketed like that: commercials that played on Nickelodian and such made it look like a kids flick; other commercials showed the edgy enuendo that the film contained.

Regardless, I liked District 9 so I will see it eventually.
