Hopefully The Movie Is As Good As The Trailer

I gotta say, whoever is cutting the trailers for The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button seriously knows what he's doing. There's currently 9 different trailers out there now, but two of the best ones are actually the TV spots (which are usually pretty lame compared to the theatrical trailers). Specifically, spot #3 and #6, which unfortunately Paramount is not letting people embed for blogging, so you'll have to go to YouTube to see them. For real, these are two of the best cut trailers I've seen in a looooong time. From the visual cues to the background music, these things are great, and have got me jonesing to see this during Christmas. Here's the links:

TV Spot #6

TV Spot #3

The story is based of an F. Scott Fitzgerald short story, about a man who grows physically younger with every year and how it affects his life. I'll be surprised if Brad Pitt doesn't walk away with the Oscar for it (unless Heath Ledger gets it for The Dark Knight).

Both could win Oscars...Mr. Pitt for lead actor, Heath would be supporting actor.
