There are way too many cool things to talk about there, but for starters, how about:
- just how amazing everything in that trailer looks?
- the title forming the same way Alien's did, over 30 years ago?
- the briefly-glimpsed giant statue head
- the grainy video toward the end, again suggestive of earlier Alien films
- the scale of several of the shots
- "You don't understand" / "It was so wrong" / "I'm so sorry" / "Please!"
- Charlize Theron!
- the throbbing sound effect, suggesting an alarm sounding as well as your heart pounding!
This is just about a perfect trailer, if you ask me. It's provocative without giving anything away, and it makes me want to see the movie... like, now! This is the way studios used to promote their flicks before somebody decided that it would be a good idea to tell the entire story over the course of the trailer.
Cannot wait!!
