A Kraftwerk Orange.

Not exactly the Avatar story we're all waiting for, but nonetheless: In the near future, where cybernetics has advanced by leaps and bounds but hairpiece technology isn't doing so hot, Bruce Willis tries to catch a murderer "offline" in the new trailer for Jonathan Mostow's Surrogates, also with Radha Mitchell. Even before you throw in rasta Ving Rhames and (the underused) Rosamund Pike as the age-inappropriate wife -- she's 24 years Willis' junior IRL -- this screams "what's on TNT after the game" B-movie to me. (Then again, that pretty much sums up all of Mostow's oeuvre. But, hey, ya never know.)

And, speaking of "the return of Bruno," this has been out for awhile but has recently been officially released domestically -- the trailer for Sasha Baron Cohen's Borat follow-up, Bruno. It looks like Ron Paul needs better advance people.
