Damn, that trailer was kick-ass. What an amazing cast. Is there a european release date yet? I must see this movie!!
 
Sry if this has been asked, but i didnt read all the pages... Is this movie only in limited release???? It says October 27,2006 (Limited) on teh Comingsoon.net page. Is it only limited?
 
Limited on that day I believe, then it will get a full release on a day not yet specified
 
How many years pass over the course of the story?
 
Thanks Cine & hey guys for those that read the book is there more to this story then simply a guy going nuts because he does not know a magic trick :confused:

Their rivalry lasts over 20 years in the book. Their entire history is framed by the story of their 2 great grandchildren's meeting, but the movie doesn't seem to include them. I only bought the book 2 days ago and couldn't put it down till I finished, if anyone is wondering whether or not to read it, you definitely should. I don't read often and this book restored my love of literature (at least for a while). I can't wait for the movie now.
 
I have finally seen it, 15 times.

Well, I think it will be the best movie 2006, trailer made me even more hyped, so I am so hyped that cant wait for next trailer!

:up:

Yeah, it is intersting how they will begin the movie without including grandchilds of the main characters.

And as what I have already seen, I think Nolan will change some details and include some his own stuff in the movie.

I think it will work, because there was nothing new or changed in DVC and Narnia, and that is why I hated DVC and was just fine with Narnia.

To put it simply, yes. The magic tricks aren't even the root of their problem but just a result of their constant attempts to one up each other.

I trust Nolan will make the best adaptation of the book possible, books just can't be directly translated to movies without being 7 hours long. The one thing I'm really curious about is how Nolan is going to show the different perspectives of the same events between Angier and Borden

Well, there were enough doubts about BB, but this movie became one of the best superhero movies, so I trust Nolan.

He proved that he is worth and great director.

I think he will make the one movie, in which all events will be translated from both sides. For example, there will be one event from the point of view of Borden and another from Angier's side.
 
Wow. I was so apathetic about this movie... then I saw that trailer. I'm totally blown away.
 
Cool trailer, can't wait for this.
 
PEOPLE!

It wasn't real Borden's moustache,
I remeber that Borden masked himself to know the secret of Angier's new trick of transportation
:eek:
 
He proved that he is worth and great director.

lol...He was considered a great director when Memento came out...long before BB.
 
Awesomeness sensory overload! :up:

Hot damn, that was a sweet trailer. Bale looked fantastic.
 
I found the shot with the water and kid's body in it from the trailer.

So it looks like there will be some stuff about their grandchilds.
 
i must be the only one not really ... impressed by that trailer :(

Well, it is your opinion, but how can you deslike trailer which has everything like: story, excellent and mysterious music, perfect editing, great dialogues and monologue, one of the best casts and awesome vissual effects?
 
I never read the book, but i plan to after seeing the amazing trailer!, so i have a question. Are Scarlette and Piper there wives? n r there roles big? Does Piper die? it looked like she drownd in the trailer. gosh i hope not...
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the trailer says "a friendship becomes a rivalry" but they were never friends in the book
