Via BigGator5 comes the first trailer for Vin Diesel’s The Last Witch Hunter.
I will admit, Vin Diesel’s dialog comes across as a little choppy and flat, but that’s a common problem with trailers. The concept looks awesome, and Diesel’s good at these kinds of roles. Hopefully the next trailer will be able to do better at highlighting his character.
And then there’s the Deadpool trailer.
:pause:
…And that’s the green band trailer. The red band trailer is… well. Marvel is unlikely to market this one to McDonald’s for the Happy Meal tie-in, is all I’m saying. Unless they do. Because MARVEL WILL NOT BE DENIED ITS DUE, or something.
Seriously, though: I wanna see both, but I ain’t bringing my kids to either.
I could see Deadpool marketing tie-ins for avocados. Or topographical maps of Utah.
I can’t place my finger on why, but something makes me want to say “you know nothing, Vin Diesel”.
Well, until I can get a Dresden Files movie, I have to say The Last Witch Hunter will have to do for filling that niche. It definitely has the film noir meets gothic horror vibe of Harry Dresden. Though I don’t think Vin Diesel can do snark nearly as well as Jim Butcher.
Still, not without promise.
