Movie Trailers to watch, enjoy and critique

The trailer for The Exploding Girl seems to push all the buttons on the typical "indie romance" setup - a friendship that could be more, quirky moments, a ton of quotes regarding emotional performance and an unknown issue that may or may not rear its dramatic head at some point during the film. The thing is, it works.. totally hooked and want to see it. I doubt it will have the quiet moments it seems to have in the trailer but it's a nice thought. This is the sort of wacky movie setup we've all been missing as of late - one actor (Edward Norton) playing two parts.. and carrying the film in doing so! Sure, we had Adaptation with Nic Cage but this is a comedy and it looks all sorts of wacky. As much as I enjoy Edward Norton that is something hilariously unbelievable whenever he plays a character with a thick southern / redneck accent.. regardless, I'll probably still see this. Watch the trailer for Leaves of Grass.
