The trailer can be found all over the net on many sites on the official movie site.

If you want to be frustrated even more...checkout this blog site with behind the scenes photos of the lake scene.....

Trust me....these shots are NOT in the final cut of the film at all.....when you look at the massive crane they set up by the lake to film these shots....you have to ask yourself...why bother....cos.they probably spent all day filming this lake arising scene, and in the end they never used any of the footage and only used 4 seconds of this scene on the film.....so what a waste of time to set up all those camera rigs and spend all day filming a scene...and only use 4 seconds of it, and not show any decent shots in the final cut at all.

But I guess when when you make several hundred million dollars at the box office...you can afford to waste money and throw away footage and not use it in the final cut.

FYI...this is commonplace in mainstream movies....cos a friend of mine is an underwater cameraman on many mainstream Hollywood films and he has filmed lots of A list actresses in water scenes such as Keira Knightley in Atonement and Angelie Jolie in the Lara Craft movie and he also shot the wetlook pool scene with Angelina in her 1995 film Hackers too. He tells me that in most cases he spends 3-4 days filming many hours of footage as a 2nd unit director but the main director has final cut approval for editing and normally throws away 98% of his footage and only uses less than 2 minutes of the hours of footage he shoots....so this is normal in Hollywood.

A Wetlook "un"tip - saving you the agony

....of wasting your money and having your ear drums burst. and your head explode....watching the new "Twilight Eclipse" movie.

You have probably seen the new movie trailer For TWILIGHT ECLIPSE where loads of clothed people rise from the lake....but you pondered over the same problem I have with films of this nature.....i.e. being forced to sit thru a movie where the entire audience consists of 12 year old girls....which is a form of torture worse than anything in hell. I once had a girlfriend in the 1970's who "dragged me" to a Bay City Rollers concert in the UK....which was sheer hell....2hrs of screaming 12 year olds....I think I would have preferred to have put a gun to my head instead....ha ha.

Anyway.....thanks to Russian dvd torrents, the movie is all over the net already, so they save us from the punishment of having to sit thru chic flick films, and so it only takes 15 minutes to download a film and scan it for wet clips these days.

Anyway...I can save you the trouble...the wetlook scene you see in the trailer, is totally worthless...cos the wetlook scene in the actual film occurs at 1hr 23 mins....and is no different to the 4 second scene you see in trailer...thats all you see...4-6 seconds and no money shots, and then a cutaway....nuttin at all.

BTW....this is not a negative posting....but meant as a useful tip to avoid your head exploding and having to sit in an audience of screaming 12 year old girls for 1hr 55 mins......all for nothing.

I think I would rather sit thru a Bay City Rollers concert again.... than having to endure watching this movie in a movie theater....ha ha....so kudos to the Russian dvd rippers...they saved my life.
