New Tron Legacy Trailer (Daft Punk)

The Tempest Trailer

Im a huge fan of fantasy films, but this one just has “dud” written all over it. Visually, it looks good, but I don’t see it living up to the Shakespeare Classic. Looks more like a made for television type of film rather than something I would pay for at the cinema. Your thoughts?

In her big-screen adaptation of Shakespeare’s mystical thriller The Tempest, Academy Award-nominated Julie Taymor brings an original dynamic to the story by changing the gender of the sorcerer Prospero into the sorceress Prospera, portrayed by Oscar winner Helen Mirren. Prospera’s journey spirals through vengeance to forgiveness as she reigns over a magical island, cares for her young daughter, Miranda, and unleashes her powers against shipwrecked enemies in this exciting, masterly mix of romance, tragicomedy and the supernatural.
