Aug 26 2008'Brothers Bloom' Trailer is Really Good but Now Old
A month or so ago, The Brothers Bloom trailer charmed me with its Dirty Rotten Scoundrels/Shooting Fish caper by way of Wes Anderson feel, because I'm a sucker for that kind of crap. Somehow I forgot to post it then, so here it is now, aged but still worth spending two minutes with, like grandma. It's by the guy who did Brick!
Thanks to Mike for the reminder.

She did this but didn't do The Mummy 3? I want to be her boyfriend now.

oh wow. i just watched the trailer, but all i could think about was the fact that both Mark Ruffalo and Rachel Weisz are on my celebrities-i-can-fuck-and-my-boyfriend-can't-say-shit-about list. This movie will be the perfect spank bank filler for me. CANTWAIT! definate 3some potential. ya know, in my fantasy that is.

You had me until:

Nothing against this movie, but the trailer seems like someone just copy-and-pasted these scenes into the trailer template for Ocean's 11-13.

Also: is it a rule that in every con-men-based movie, its always their "one last job?" Always?

The first 5 seconds felt like I was watching Darjeeling Limited with a Ruffalo where a Wilson should be. The funny zooms and pans, probably some fast cut scenes being narrated by a deadpan Ruffalo. Probably even a slow motion scene at the end where they're all walking slowly to David Bowie.. but in the background is an exploding Ferrari.
It's like Wes Anderson and Steve Soderbergh had a kid.
But that kid is a douchebag, but his mom is hot. (So I'll watch it.)

What's with the Soderbergh comparisons? The Ocean's films were an abomination; all style and absolutely no substance. A million cameos with too many recognizable actors to distract with the completely shitty and weak storyline. (And I will forever hate Soderbergh for forcing Don Cheadle to put on that horrific Cockney accent.)
This film reminds me more of the Coen Brothers crossed with Wes Anderson - which is something I would definitely see.
