‘Wolfman’ Trailer Plays Second Fiddle to ‘Avatar’

It’s too bad that the people behind Wolfman are stupid, and failed to realize the Avatar trailer was debuting today, or they could have been the top story. But regardless, both debuted, and surprisingly enough, Wolfman holds its own against the blue skinned aliens.
It reminds me a bit of From Hell, but Del Toro looks great, as do the wolf-transmorphing effects. I haven’t really heard anything about this project since its inception, but I think it will end up being a pretty welcome treat. Don’t you?

i agree. and while it may have been foolish to release footage the same day as avatar, i think it could in the end help wolfman a bit assuming buzz lasts.
avatar was pumped up to be revolutionary and no matter how much you still want to see it, i doubt the trailer was better than you expected. i still think it’s gonna be an amazing viewing experience, but to be honest i’m having to convince myself it will be better with hd, 3-d, etc etc etc
wolfman trailer on the other hand far exceeded my expectations. it looks historical, but with a fantasy otherworldly feeling. benicio del toro definitely looks the part (can’t resist flashing back to big top pee-wee) . the glimpses of the transformation look fantastic and i’m thrilled they stuck with makeup/costumes for him and not full blown cgi
This has Hugo Weaving. That right there is enough to make this a must see for me.
I was excited about Wolfman back when Romaneck (sp?) was attached to it..nice to see that it’s still got a very cool look. This may end up being great.
