I'm really excited about City of Ember. It's based on a young adult book that seems reminiscent of The Giver, has a neat concept - a city shrouded in darkness that's perhaps the only inhabited place left in the world - and stars Bill Murray in what looks like a terrific turn as the untrustworthy mayor. The trailer just came out, which you can check out for yourself below. The music goes a little overboard, but the look of the film seems terrific. It gives away one massive detail that in the book is a secret, but I have a feeling that there are plenty more surprises waiting to be discovered.
Also released today is the teaser trailer for Baz Luhrmann's Australia, starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. I can't make heads or tails of the story, but as with all of Luhrmann's work, it looks pretty epic:
Finally, there's the first trailer for The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. It actually doesn't look half bad if you liked the first two, which a large pile of money says you did. How will it compare to Indiana Jones? Decide for yourself...
