Jesus Christ, Cruise sticks out like his stiff dick in the men's lockerroom in these period pieces. Didn't these people learn anything from Far & Away?
He is rocking that i-patch, however. Emilio Largo would be proud.
Actionman seems very excited about it, so that means the chances of it sucking as bad as Domino are roughly 1:1.
hmmm......this still looks pretty bad to me.....a festival of accents and none of them german.....and cruise really does seem out of his league here.....
y'know, they can dick around with the trailers until the cows come home but i'm not sure this one can overcome all that early bad wom......
Scooter, why should they be speaking German-accented English? Unless they are going to actually speak german, I see no point in having a pointless accent there. This seems to be an attack that people who just want to think this movie will suck pull out of thin air.
You yourself don't hear yourself as speaking in accent, though everyone has one. Therefore, because the movie is in english for the sake of clarity for an english speaking audience (and not because they are german speaking characters who are, for some reason, speaking in English), and Germans do not hear themselves having an accent when they speak German, the actors in this movie should speak english in their natural accent, be it American, English, or otherwise.

I like the usage of Charlie Clouser's "Saw" theme. Very classy.
Only kidding. But I'll still see this film (I actually really liked trailer #2)

Was that Richard LaFontaine's voice at the end of the trailer?

I wasn't bothered by the "festival of accents" at all. Good trailer.
