Bad Trailers and Great Movies

Interesting perusal of my iGoogle pages today. On one hand, David Pogue pointing out a new completely bogus practice of including shots in a big-budget action movie trailer that never appear in the actual movie.

On the other hand, Sol showed us Once, and like many thousands of others fell in love the with timeless story, the genuine (and well-recorded) music, and the great sense of possibility created not just by the movie's story itself, but by the fact that John and his mates made this movie for a low cost, on digital video.

That's a good news story.
