In case you haven't heard, there is a lot of hype regarding January 18th, 2008. This is because of a 2 minute clip/teaser shown before the "Transformers" film. Apparently J.J. Abrams, producer of "Lost", is coming out with a movie. In true "Lost" fashion, the clip shows something but reveals nothing. The premise appears to be like any other action movie teaser trailer - Hunky-Dory one second and people running from fireballs the next. What makes this clip so affective though is the same reason why "The Blair Witch Project" got so much hype - it feels real and forces you to want to know more. We HATE not knowing what's happening! I can guarantee there are thousands of hacker-nerds codenamed "Floppy Disk", "Ctrl-Alt-Delete" and "Wireless Mouse" vying to be the first to uncover this mystery. Much of the speculation seems to revolve around obvious choices - Godzilla or Voltron. As much as I'd love to see a Voltron movie, I wouldn't put it past Abrams to be making a live-action "Care Bears" movie. I mean, he does seem to like to f*ck with people. Even when you go to the "movies" website (http://www.1-18-08.com/), which contains only two pictures, can you see a weird creature between the two women? What the hell is that??? Well, without further ado...check out the trailer and judge for yourself:
