UPDATE 2 - Paramount and David Fincher himself, oddly enough, have put the smack down. Finch wants nothing but the most pristine HD version online first and has politely asked we remove our flash version. Since the guy made FIGHT CLUB after all we obliged. We're assured the HD version will be up at Apple's trailer site very soon. Very, very soon...

UPDATE - Paramount still hasn't formally released the BENJAMIN BUTTON trailer to the interwebs but we got our sneaky little hands on a clean, English-language version! Hear Brad Pitt speak! Actually see what's going on! Excitement! Updated video link is below...

Perhaps one of the best surprises in going to see INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL this weekend is the trailer debut of THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON. The fantasy epic is the long-awaited reteaming of Brad Pitt and David Fincher and follows the story of a man who ages backwards (he's born and old man and presumably dies a baby). This morning a JoBlo scooper sent us a copy of the international trailer for the film to share with everyone. It's in Spanish I believe but since there's hardly any narration at all, it doesn't detract from the experience. Just look at the visuals, listen to the music and bask in one of the finest trailers I've set my eyes on in some time. Can't wait to see this sucker in HD!

The POINT, my friends, is that when someone who saw this post earlier in the day RETURNS at night (or the next day), they tend to WONDER what happened, if the article is completely GONE, hence the explanation for those people.

Also, other sites will LINK to such articles sometimes, so again...out of courtesy to them, we leave the story up, but with an explanation, so that everyon...

Do you see the point now?

I probably get flamed for this but my most anticipated film of 2008 is NOT..
The Dark Knight
House of Lies
Revolutionary Road
Burn After Reading or
Quantum of Solace

It's Benjamin Button.

Great Short Story
If you're ok with spoilers I suggest you read the short story - about a 30min read. Really really great. This movie is going to be amazing.

Amazing!
I didn't even know until now that this was directed by Fincher. Of course it'll be fantastic! I'm there.

I've been Waiting since Zodiac...
Damnit, this will be yet another great film from Fincher, and perhaps his best since "Fight Club". It has Brad Pitt in it, so there is already the first sign that it is a pre-determined masterpiece.

I seriously can't wait, the trailer blew my mind and took me by suprise when I went to go see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the yadda-yadda... My girlfriend didn't understand why I...

I seriously can't wait, the trailer blew my mind and took me by suprise when I went to go see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the yadda-yadda... My girlfriend didn't understand why I exploded over a trailer, I wanted to slap the hoe afterwards (I'd like to clarify that I'm just joking). But anyway, yeah, can't f'n wait.

The trailer for this movie ran before the Indy movie. It looks really good. Too bad it does not come out this summer.

If I didn't know any better...
I'd think this was directed by Tim Burton. But either way, this looks INCREDIBLE. I'm there.

Fincher, Pitt, and the Holy Ghost
Whoa.

Absolutely stunning, that color palette of his. And the whimsy mixed with dread, the score, those long shots. . .

What can you say but. . .whoa.

Brilliant. I thought the Pineapple Express redband was easily going to be the best trailer of the year. This just surpassed it.

If the movie lives up to the trailer which it most likely will, this just may be the best movie of the year. 12/19/08 cannot get hear soon enough.

I Can NOT wait for this movie. What a fascinating idea, Dorian Grey with a twist! Who better than Fincher/Pitt to tackle it?
