German Trailer for Stone's WTC Now Online
Filed under: Drama, Trailer Trash, DIY/Filmmaking, Movie Marketing
Okay, so it's not exactly the first look we were expecting but, nevertheless, a trailer for Oliver Stone's World Trade Center is now online ... in German. However, even if you don't speak the language, there's no doubt about it -- this film looks beautiful.
Not long ago, the website for WTC went live with a brief featurette that blended interviews with the two Port Authority officers the film is based on with still photographs from the pic. After hearing that a majority of the film was shot out west and not in New York City, I was curious to see how well Stone pulled it off. Folks, after watching the trailer, you would have no idea this thing was shot on some sound stage. In fact, it feels as if Stone had cameras there, on the street, as it all went down. As far as Nicolas Cage goes, well, the guy looks as if he weighs 90 pounds, if that.
I urge each and every one of you to go watch this trailer right now. We knew it was coming any day now, and seeing this German version hit means the English one should be here at any moment. As always, when it arrives, we'll let you know.

UPDATE: Unfortunately, it appears the trailer has been removed. As usual, when a trailer hits the net like this, there's always a small window of time it is available before the studio gets word. The official trailer is bound to hit real soon, so stay tuned for further info. Sorry folks!
UPDATE 2: The US trailer went live today (5/17); it's here. Thanks, Roy._thumbnail.jpg)

Yeah I think they just took it down again... they probably put it up too early or something.

On a different note, I don't know if I'm quite ready for this yet. Not to be overdramatic, but is 5 years enough time for everyone? I'm not sure it is for me. I may have to wait for WTC and United 93 to come out on DVD before I'm ready.

Man it hurts everytime, i can't even get through the trailer without crying, let alone a full length feature film. Does anyone else feel like its kind of wrong that a movie studio is profiting off of this tragedy, i would be much more comfortable if these studios that were making all these 911 movies, donated a substantial (almost all) amount of the profits to the families of those who lost/donated their life. Another concern of mine is rural idiocracy, ppl think they know what happened that day, and these types of movies get internalized as the truth to alot of ppl. I still won't watch passion of the christ, purely because it appeals to the emotional aspect of man, and to truly make an educated decision about something you can't have an emotional bias.
