clips and trailers: Super 8 (2011)

No Comment

Well, well, well… what have we got here? It’s been a couple of years but J.J. Abrams has finally come out with a new film. Super 8 is actually only his 3rd film but with Steven Spielberg all over the promotional materials, you can rest assured this is a biggie.

Ok, to be fair, they’ve all been biggies…

Anyone else think it’s kind of strange that this guy went from directing a few random TV show episodes to directing Tom Cruise in a Mission: Impossible film? Just me? Not that I’m particularly complaining. I never saw M:I3 but I really liked Star Trek so it’s fine by me.

None of this tells you about Super 8 though. Basically, it’s about a bunch of kids in 1979 who go out to make a short film and randomly find themselves in the middle of some alien madness. I can’t really say fairer than that without giving anything away. I was lucky enough to see it the other day and I really do think you should go see it too. It’s great. Well, I think it’s great. You might not. I don’t want to big it up too much….

Anyway, it’s already out in the US and it’s out in the UK and Ireland today so, judging by my analytics, most of you should be able to go see, right now. Do it.

But if you can’t, here’s some clips and trailers to tide you over. Undoubtedly some of the clips are quite spoilerish but I’ll leave that up to you.
