The Book of Life

Recap of the Comic-Con panel. It doesn't sound like anything new was shown. On the other hand, I never thought I'd see the words "Xibalba" and "sweetheart" used in the same sentence. It's sounding more and more like he's gonna do a Heel–Face Turn at the end. Also, can we get some fanart of him being all cutesy with his snake friend?

A bigged Lipped Biz Marke moment!

The explanation of the trailer doesn't really tell me much what the new trailer has to offer.

This one talks about it a little. It sounds a bit like the trailer we already have plus "Creep" and a line from the Candle Maker. Hopefully it'll be put online.

Oh, good! character development. :) Especially from the candlemaker.

An interview. It's not the greatest, but it's something. I think Channing might be the only one who actually wants to be there.

New images, possibly from an upcoming trailer. I sense major Power Trio asskicking on the way.

I love how Ron Perlman's acting so sleepy. His voice seems deep here.

Yeah, like the last visual. Wonder what's going on in the last picture...

Something about the setting and the way they're all standing and looking makes me think it's from a point towards the end.

Aren't they suppose to be a Love Triangle?

I don't think it'll be a Love Triangle in the way YA novels have been abusing it. Maria's not there just to be conflicted about which guy to choose, and she actually makes her choice early on. On top of that, they're all childhood friends who have known each other for years. I'm pretty sure that part of the story will involve Manolo and Joaquin learning not to let pointless drama undermine that connection.

I think the romance is second handed to Manolo's decision about himself either being a musician or bullfight, to be honest. *shrug*

Which video is this from?

Not sure. I went looking for it on You Tube and didn't find anything.

Bumping because I just found out that they're showing a sneak peek during some awards show on MTV tonight.

I hope somebody puts those clips up. Really want to find out anything I can on this film(just as much as Regular Show).

Agreed. It's been a while since I was this excited for a film. Heck, the last time was probably Pirates, and y'all know how I feel about that movie.

MTV sneak peek with lots of new footage!

x6 It's an interview from the Entertainment Weekly.

Too fast! I need to freeze frame every single frame of this goddamn thing!

I fully expect to see every shot screencapped and rendered in HD within a few days. Also, pretty sure we got a shot or two from the ending in there. Specifically that shot where they're doing the Three Musketeers-y pose. You can clearly see several of the spirits standing behind them.

Found it.

Say, do you guys remember how Gutierrez said this was partially based on a student film he did?

Beautiful short. No wonder he won a award for it.

I'm so confused by this name change.

It's likely a reference to La Calavera Catrina.
