Hard to tell from the this first trailer, but it certainly leaves us wanting more. Be sure to queue this one for it’s Thanksgiving release.
Oh, and if...

10 things I Learned: Harold & Maude
“The penultimate sequence, with Maude in the hospital, was originally much longer and filled with dialogue, but in postproduction, Ashby (himself an Oscar-winning editor, for In the Heat of the Night) and editors William A. Sawyer and Edward Warschilka decided to structure it as a montage and set it to Cat Stevens’s “Trouble,” thereby creating a truly classic scene in American cinema....

Go Watch Prometheus
Fans of Ridley Scott and Alien will have a lot to chew on, and look at. And, if you have daddy issues, you will find yourself in good company and on a cosmic scale. Parts of the movie feel like a John Carpenter film on a larger scale; and the characters, with the exception of Michael Fassbender’s David, feel kind of knocked-off and predictable.
