Frequently I see terrible trailers for upcoming films and feel the need to whine and moan like a little girl about how shit they look but I also don't want to start a thread just for a bad movie. Here's a place to share said trailers.
First up, Marlowe:
A review online informs me that this is the 11th iteration of the knight in tarnished armour. I can only remember half a dozen off the top of my head. None of them nailed the character. Gould probably got closest but there was a bunch of hippie nonsense in his characterisation that didn't sit well with me, much as I may like the movie.
I think we can all agree though that Liam Neesom is not the best choice. Of the current crop I'd probably go with Miles Teller but theres a few names I'd call before I got around to offering it to elderly Irishmen. Fuck me gently with a chainsaw...
Anyway, not based on a Chandler book but some more recent writers authorised Chandler knockoff. Reviews are diabolical and it is bizarrely ugly. So many streaming shows have done 40s LA that I'm used to it looking great and not at all like this. What's with that yellow wash over the night time shots? Looks like a student's first effort in Davinci Resolve.
One of the very annoying trailers where i know that a) I'm going to hate the film and b) I'm definitely going to see it.
