I just got done watching the two trailers for the Snow White (2012) films. ... The two of them are like night and day.
Yes, I've seen the trailers for both and you're right - they couldn't be more different. Though in their case that's probably a very good thing as both are likely to find an audience and those audiences may not cross over with each other very much.
And not that I'm jealous. No, not at all. But Entertainment Tonight has been running behind the scenes set visits/interviews for
Snow White and the Huntsman. No, that shouldn't phase any of us in the least. Not at all. I mean, just because that film is shooting at Pinewood and granted ET access to all sorts of things and we didn't get a single thing when it came to DS while it was shooting there. Nope, no jealousy at all. Not one single bit.
But seriously, once we learned of the confidentiality agreement, which we honestly suspected was in place long before we actually heard it for sure, we knew we weren't going to get coverage from the entertainment shows while shooting was going on. With Burton & Co., I suppose we should actually feel lucky that we've at least gotten two official articles so far and seen three official stills. And obviously more isn't going to come our way until Burton & Co. decides it's the right time, whenever that may be...
Snow White and the Huntsman is dark and serious. And Mirror, Mirror is... I don't know what it is to be honest. Anyway, it is everything I hope Shadows WON'T be. It appears to be a very bad comedy. I hope that when we get a trailer for Shadows it looks more like Huntsman does, because I feel if it looks anything like Mirror, Mirror, nobody is going to be very happy.
I suspect DS won't be like either of them. We pretty much know that it won't be as serious as
Snow White and the Huntsman, and I doubt it will be as comedic as
Mirror, Mirror seems to be.
