Thanks for posting.

My first reactions are...

Will there ever be a Carrie who actually resembles the Carrie in the book? She's supposed to be somewhat overweight with acne. Not beautiful!

Some of the scenes in this trailer seem almost to be exactly lifted from the original movie.

As someone who was bullied just about every day of all 4 years of high school, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Carrie White and will probably see this movie and it will break my heart, just as the book and first movie did and still do.

I, am of course, delighted that one of Mr. King's stories is be re-filmed, but I just recently saw a remake that was no where near as good as the original and I don't think this new one can be better than the first.

I would go back and re-read Carrie and get so much more pleasure from the words than any so-called special effects.

I dunno...Brian DePalma is gonna be a tough act to follow.

Another generation of people judging SK for horror.

It looks good -- however, is this the version of the trailer that's essentially "Carrie in 2 minutes"? Why do they do that -- show the entire film in the trailer?

[bryantburnette]

They do that because it works. Give people a good idea of a movie's story, and they typically respond to it (if it's any good).

By the way, here's a trailer for the '76 film that's even more egregious in the show-the-whole-film department:
