Behold the Trailer for Alexander Payne's new film The Descendants!

Payne goes gunning for Oscar along with George Clooney. Take a look:

-Joey's Two Cents: I like the look of this a lot more than I was expecting to. It could very well with the Academy, but we shall see...thoughts?

  1. Perhaps this is a bigger Oscar contender than I previously thought...

  2. Ugh, yet another trailer that gives away way too damn much.

  3. Not really actually...the book jacket of the novel gave away more.

  4. Really? It seemed like there was a huge twist that got spoiled for me.

  5. Indeed, it's literally revealed in the second sentence.

  6. I think what everyone is afraid to say is that it kind looks like a let down. Clooney is reprising the same role he played in Up In the Air, the old sap, And honestly I feel like this is rather a rental yikes, hopefully once reviews come in and maybe they are positive I'll eat my words and go see it, but for now, I wouldn't hold my breath for this.

  7. Trust me, no one on this site is afraid to say anything.

    I can only go by what I think, and I think it looks good.

    How is an aging playboy anything like a father? The roles aren't even close.

  8. Yeah I don't see the similarity at all there. This could be anything, who knows from the trailer. The daughter looks good though.
