Oh, come on, I thought 'directed by Terrence Malick' basically implied that.
Haven't you read the poster? It's Terrenial Maliik dammit!

Funny? It's despair at this point.

Still no official mention of Voyage of Time.

Still no official mention of the pre-historic segments in The Tree of Life, either.
I suspect they'll come at the same time.

If the sci-fi stuff isn't in the first trailer, I'm gonna lose my mind. Foreplay is one thing, but this is just teasing.

Would you knock it off already? How many times do you have to repeat the same thing? Enough.

Didn't they announce a realse date already? I think it's May 27th 2011. So let's all simmer down, the time'll go by like that.

Only 211 more sleeps and you're there.

I normally don't like complaining about these things, but ugh, the font on the poster.

Fox Searchlight confirms the trailer will be attached to prints of "Black Swan" this weekend (and probably will be online this week too).

...which reportedly won't be officially posted online for two-weeks, if not months longer. C'mon, Fox, get real.

Ah, the wonders of smart phones with video capability.

Blown away by the trailer; not much to say other than bring on the full 1080p version tomorrow.

Okay - one brief first impression - this feels like a return to The Thin Red Line in terms of the almost nostalgic tone (the flashback "home" sequences of that film, I mean) and use of poetic/philosophical voiceover. Not that it was absent in The New World, but it had a slightly different sensibility.
