Behold the Trailer for Steven Spielberg's Oscar hopeful War Horse!

Take a look:
-Joey's Two Cents: It certainly looks like it's going for the gold, but I can't help feeling like this doesn't look as good as it potentially should...thoughts?

  1. Don't get me wrong, it looks gorgeous and hits all the right notes, but it didn't give me the "got to see it" chill I was hoping for...

  2. It looks like a Best Picture film to me.

  3. Indeed, but one more along the lines of The King's Speech to me...it feels like it's missing something.

  4. I got that feeling too Joey. For me, I think a lot of my anticipation has shifted from this film onto his upcoming Lincoln project, so I'm not really over the moon to see this one.

  5. That could be part of it for me. I also want to see looks at more of the big contenders before anointing this the front-runner or anything.

  6. as Baity as it gets...btw, this means two chistmas releases for Spielberg. He is eyeing for two slots in the line up.

  7. This is true. It's going to be interesting, though I doubt Tintin will make it.

  8. I thought the trailer was actually pretty hot. Strings are overused though, and sentimentalize the action a bit too much. But the visuals are on point, as you'd expect from 'berg... the man knows how to tell a story like none other

  9. Indeed. Time will tell about the final product, but the ingredients are certainly there...

  10. They'll cut another one of these right? This seems teaser-ish to me. Although, I agree the strings are a bit overwrought, I like that a lot of the story is not yet revealed...Kinda with most of us, I want to see more...
