Teaser Poster & Trailer for Paul Thomas Anderson's THERE WILL BE BLOOD!!!

First? by Marv Spaulding	Sep 6th, 2007 06:31:54 PM
Probably not. Cool poster though, can't wait to see Daniel Day Lewis in something again.
Looks good to me. by eggbeater	Sep 6th, 2007 06:32:49 PM
Can't wait for this movie
Here's a teaser trailer by aceattorney	Sep 6th, 2007 06:38:59 PM

What the hell is this about?
Got my copy of Boogie Nights sitting right next to me by s0nicdeathmonkey	Sep 6th, 2007 06:42:07 PM
however, Magnolia isn't that great. Still, the opening of that film is one of the best ever. And the musical number wows me for sheer, WTF-ness.
First Scorsese, then Altman... by Blue Meanie 1138	Sep 6th, 2007 06:43:03 PM
Now he's aping Malick. But DDL's involvement gives me hope.
I hope it's as good as Resident Evil by sean bean	Sep 6th, 2007 06:47:30 PM
and Alien vs Predator. I'd even settle for as good as Mortal Kombat. What video game is this one based on?
Blue Meanie 1138.. wha? by hegele	Sep 6th, 2007 06:53:33 PM
Ok, i get it. Boogie Nights - Scorsese, Magnolia - Altman, This - Malick. Ha, you are clever! O, oh Whats Punch Drunk Love? Sydney? To simplify his films like that is incredibly dismissive to his talent.
I like the Andersons. Even Anthony. by kikuchiyoboy	Sep 6th, 2007 06:56:02 PM
Just leave out Paul W.S. Hell, I'll trade him for Loni.
As for the poster by hegele	Sep 6th, 2007 06:56:42 PM
Its great, just great! Only wish the official web page they provided at the bottom was real.
looks like the 4 disc Pearl Harbor packaging by Jugdish	Sep 6th, 2007 07:01:22 PM
Don't ask...Disney sent it to me when they wanted a review of it.

Smurfette, thanks, I enjoyed that.
Bill the Butcher 4EVAH by SamBluestone	Sep 6th, 2007 07:09:50 PM
Dear lord in Heaven, I still have not forgiven PTA for PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE. Rarely have I ever hated a film as much as I hated that. That said, I rather liked BOOGIE NIGHTS and am interested in rewatching MAGNOLIA, but PUNCH-DRUNK LOVE raped my soul. But I will see THERE WILL BE BLOOD simply and only for the triumphant return of Daniel Day Lewis and his mighty Bill the Butcher 'stache.
nice by pipergates	Sep 6th, 2007 07:17:52 PM
classy
that is beautiful by The Real MiraJeff	Sep 6th, 2007 07:32:18 PM
what a great poster love the tagline and i thought i couldn't be more excited for this one... by the way, the opening ten pages of the script are a doozy
i think there was a trailer on like some german site by Charlie Murphy	Sep 6th, 2007 07:34:31 PM
or some such place a few months ago, and it (i hate to say, as most talkbackers really liked it) bored me to tears. nice poster, though. maybe i'll revisit that trailer.
that looks awesome-o by couP	Sep 6th, 2007 07:34:48 PM

"When Ambition Meets Faith" by CountryBoy	Sep 6th, 2007 07:50:20 PM
So is this bashing Christianity AND the oil industry? It's a leftist two-fer!
good one sean bean by prunkhaft	Sep 6th, 2007 08:01:39 PM
it is unfortunate that two directors on the the opposite ends of the quality spectrum have a similar name. Daniel Day Lewis is a favorite of mine and I'm anticipating yet another great performance.
Interesting poster & tagline by Yeti	Sep 6th, 2007 08:04:56 PM
What's the movie about?
this script blew me away by welbrick	Sep 6th, 2007 08:05:41 PM
i thought "there's no way any actor can do justice to this character." then he cast daniel day lewis and i realized i was wrong. can't wait.
plot: the story of a girl's first period by The Only Woj	Sep 6th, 2007 08:13:31 PM
with Lewis playing the lead female
Everything he's done has been great? by Flim_	Sep 6th, 2007 08:28:52 PM
PUNCH DRUNK LOVE notwithstanding, of course.
BOOGIE NIGHTS by THE KNIGHT	Sep 6th, 2007 08:41:30 PM
WAAAAAAAAAS THE SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT!
That is a great poster. by LoneGun	Sep 6th, 2007 09:37:51 PM
I bet this will be one of the year's big event films. PUNCH DRUNK LOVE is one of my favorite American movies of the past five years.
"Oh yes, there will be blood..." by Osmosis Jones	Sep 6th, 2007 09:55:38 PM
Where the fuck is Jigsaw on this poster?!
should sweep the oscars by Winterchili	Sep 6th, 2007 09:56:21 PM
and rightly so i hope. PTA is the best working american director. fact. by the way, punch-drunk love had beautiful mis-en-scene and great character study and it was just excellent.
I can already relate to the guy in the trailer by Guy Who Got A Headache And Accidentally Saves The World	Sep 6th, 2007 10:18:21 PM
Just from looking at these talkbacks

AWESOME by TheDohDoh	Sep 6th, 2007 10:40:50 PM
Best poster in a long time.
Hey... wasn't this movie called Giant? by Russman	Sep 6th, 2007 11:30:36 PM
huh? huh?
why is this poster "awesome" by Russman	Sep 6th, 2007 11:38:42 PM
can someone fill me in?
Still but full of movement? by arrangedletters	Sep 6th, 2007 11:47:05 PM
You mean stupid yet full of pretension?
I'm sure it will be interesting by krushjudgement	Sep 6th, 2007 11:47:53 PM
It will make you look at things in a new way. And at the end you will feel like shit, and have no hope for humanity. That's what his movies do for me anyhow.
I hate people too! by Geek Sodomizer	Sep 6th, 2007 11:51:43 PM
this movies gonna rock!
and I'm not gay by Geek Sodomizer	Sep 6th, 2007 11:55:44 PM
but I would suck Daniel Day Lewis' dick if he asked me to.
WOW by Kingdaddy	Sep 7th, 2007 01:19:13 AM
One of the most effective trailers I've seen in a long time (EVER?)...Lord knows if the movie will be as good, but that trailer makes me weep that I spend so much money on shite like the Halloween remake...
what about the film's venice appearance by AllieJamison	Sep 7th, 2007 01:42:26 AM
we talked about that trailer before + that poster is awesome. the great thing about that red line IS that it's straight and doesn't look as you'd expect it...or something. I love it. but what about the film's alleged venice screening? what became of that? Got it canceled? I guess I missed some news...
I saw this trailer 6 months ago by Andy Warhol Jr	Sep 7th, 2007 01:48:41 AM
New record for AICN.
Yeah, I had this trailer in June by deanamatronix	Sep 7th, 2007 03:37:34 AM

Boogie Nights and Magnolia 2 of my fave films ever, also have alot of time for Punch drunk love, Daniel Day Lewis, its gonna get messy, or bloody, oh and saw this trailer a looooooooong time ago. still cannot fucking wait, the oscars have dissed him many times, not that anyone cares about those things anymore
It has the feel of HEAVEN'S GATE... by Flim_	Sep 7th, 2007 06:26:04 AM
...and that's high praise indeed.
Baby humping... by jfp2007	Sep 7th, 2007 06:31:14 AM
It looks like DDL is fucking the baby in that one shot. I know he's not but look at it again. That dirty Butcher.
deanamatronix by captainCAPSLOCK	Sep 7th, 2007 07:16:15 AM
get over yourself...AICN posted a link for the trailer way back too. it's thrown in here as an addendum to the poster news. if you can call this 'news'.
Count me excited! by Jakes Nel	Sep 7th, 2007 07:17:44 AM
Fuck!
Punch Drunk Love... by BrooseTheScharuk	Sep 7th, 2007 08:36:14 AM
...is my favourite PTA film. I generally prefer his smaller efforts, such as PDL and Hard Eight (Sydney, whatever). Boogie Nights is really good too, but I think Magnolia -- while it has moments of real resonance and is beautifully cinematic -- does a little too much flailing around, crying and wringing its hands, for my tastes. I have to say that There Will Be Blood is about as hyped for a PTA movie as I've ever been, and that has more than a little to do with Daniel Day Lewis: Untouchable Thespian Genius (I think the official AICN talkback spelling is actually "thesbian", but I'm just a crazy rule-breaker). If this movie sucks, it will remain eminently watchable because of his presence. But, judging by the ominously ambiguous trailer, it's not going to suck. And I loves me a good period piece -- western or no -- so I'm there for sure.
best american filmmaker of the last 10 years. by Robstar	Sep 7th, 2007 08:59:33 AM
Seriously, when I heard about this movie last year, I ran to the library to pick up the Upton Sinclair book that its based on "Oil", hoping to get some movie spoilers. Sadly, thats what it takes for me to read a book. not to get culture, but to maybe find some inside info on a movie. The book is a bit of a hard read,(cuz of its old-timeyness) but it holds up VERY well for a work of political/religious satire that was written after the turn of the century. Few months back, I got the script off someone on the IMDB boards. It is a bit of a reimagining of some of the things in it, and it begins and ends at different places than the book did. Without spoiling anything, i can say that 1. DDL's character "Plainview" is present in every single scene of the script. From his days of starting a small oil empire to the time he becomes a big shot oil baron. 2. There is a nice little mining scene about a third of the way in that reads like it COULD be one of PTAs long one-take shots. Im crossing my fingers. 3. The title dosent just refer to blood as in oil. There are a some gory deaths, (a few of them by guns) I guess saying anything more might piss people off but if i guess if you want to know anything else just let me know.
Needs more Photoshopped Heads by KneelBeforeZod	Sep 7th, 2007 09:16:56 AM
Throw in a Mandy Moore head or a Jennifer Garner head on DD-L's body, and you have got yourself an audience!
Wait - can't I at least get a small amount of credit? by aceattorney	Sep 7th, 2007 09:17:17 AM
for the vid link? Thanks!
HOLY SHIT. by Kurzinski Valentine	Sep 7th, 2007 11:24:32 AM
that is all.
I saw this trailer months ago... WTF? by Sad_Lieutenant	Sep 7th, 2007 11:36:50 AM
Looks awesome. Don't see how PTA can fuck this up. Of course, even a Brett Ratner-directed Daniel-Day Lewis vehicle couldn't be all that bad.
Punch Drunk Love by Shigeru	Sep 7th, 2007 12:43:48 PM
is a perfect movie. p e r f e c t
An inky, oily black book? by Barry Egan	Sep 7th, 2007 02:06:52 PM
I'm pretty sure that's supposed to look like a worn, old Bible.
PT Anderson by Jaws Wayne	Sep 7th, 2007 02:09:16 PM
Truly looking forward to the man's new movie,probably my favourite US director and yes, Punch Drunk Love is a unique film and a true classic.

Check out the new trailer in shitty version-o-tron at ComingSoon - I just saw it before 3:10 to Yuma too...it gave me chills...
hmmmm, an oil tale, really? by Icky Thump	Sep 7th, 2007 05:46:46 PM
I love PT - so I am excited about this, even though it's about oil????
poster is well designed. by Icky Thump	Sep 7th, 2007 05:48:09 PM
I like the cross the type makes on the book as well, good design.
