Hey folks, Harry here... below is a link to the first teaser trailer for M. Night's THE VILLAGE trailer. Every trailer he has ever had for a film has instantly grabbed me. Instantly told me that I was going to be seeing the movie. Told me that in fact... I HAD to see the movie. This time, the only thing telling me to see the movie is my faith in M. Night as a filmmaker, but not in what I'm seeing. The script reviews have not been good. Matter of fact, they've been abysmal. I have deliberately not read them, but from conversations with Moriarty, he not only agrees with the consensus that the script sucks, but believes it so bad that it can not possibly be real. After watching the teaser I'm afraid that this film may not be as the other films have been for me. I am not jazzed or pumped after the trailer. BUT... I am just hoping that perhaps this isn't an easy thing to sell... that perhaps it is just not as instantly iconic as his previous ideas. I hope... well, I want to love this film like I have his others, but this isn't looking too promising.
