It’s a Good Week for Made-Up Movie Trailers
So apparently some Serbian animated movie called Technotise that’s supposedly pretty good. Someone bought the rights to it and now wants to make a live-action version of it. That same someone hired Jared Pitts, the creator of that jaw-droppingly awesome fan-made Green Lantern movie trailer — you know, the one cobbled together from a bunch of different movies but layered together with awesome CG to truly look like a real GL movie — to work his magic on Technotise. This is the result.
I’ve seen about a third of the footage used in this trailer, and I still can’t believe it’s not totally original. I don’t even want to see another live-action version, I just want Pitts to make this movie. (Via /Film)
