Surrogates Trailer

The trailer for the Bruce Willis sci-fi actioner Surrogates has been released



Curious that they would acknowledge the graphic novel source in the marketing considering it's a relatively new publication, and as such hasn't had time to establish a fanbase of any significant size...you'd think comic books were in vogue or something.

Overall the trailer looks pretty solid, and the basic idea is potentially enthralling, inviting complex sociological debate; or prompting various news outlets to compare it to Second Life; or to say it's basically Wall-E's 'go out and play' message for grown ups; or all of the above. But clearly the most potent question is: will directors ever tire of getting Bruce Willis to wear wigs? Probably not. And dude is completely cool with it.

I really like the premise, almost the next obvious step up fromi Robot and Willis looks like he's taking this seriously rather than getting on the blower as he seems to have done recently.
