When will Hollywood create brand new quality characters and franchises again
Just like they did in the past.
I’m tired of adaptations, sequels, superheroes, prequels, remakes, rehashes, reboots, requels, midquels, British accents, etc.
 
I was a big fan of MURDER, and I think this trailer looks terrific. Very stylish.

And the plot -- assuming they haven't changed it around too much -- is one of Agatha Christie's best.

I hated the last one - because it was played as a farce rather than serious.
This trailer makes it look deadly serious (and good) but I'm not being burned twice, will see what the first reviews say.

I didn't feel MURDER was played as farce at all, but fair enough!

That trailer is nothing but a bunch of glamour posing shots... I don’t know make anything of it at all...!
The glamour is all I need at this point!

They may just be treading carefully in terms of giving away too much of the plot, which -- even by Christie standards -- is pretty packed with surprise developments and turns.
