Anticipation


The movie I was most looking forward to seeing this year was The Wrestler. While I still can't wait to see it and think it's probably going to be my favorite film of this year, there's another film I'm eagerly anticipating.

When I first saw the trailer for this new Liam Neeson film, Taken, I was spellbound. I literally could not look away. Thanks to DVR, I rewound and watched the ad about five more times. Not only does it look good (though, admittedly, retread territory) I haven't seen a movie advertisement done this well in quite some time. Bravo, folks.

I've made J-Mom come and watch the ad a couple of times. Maybe it's me, but this is how ads should be done. I hope the movie lives up to the trailer.
