Hmm. That was a great trailer - for a Verhoevan horror movie. If I had never heard of the toyline or cartoon series, I'd be led to believe this movie was another Starship Troopers, with a parade of victims getting impaled by pointy monsters and aliens.
I certainly don't begrudge them for taking the film in a different direction or focusing on a new generation of fans, rather than mining nostalgic 30 somethings like me for an audience, but I was surprised by the complete lack of character or heart shown in that trailer. Wait and see, I guess.
