Apocalypto -- the trailer's now online!


Mel Gibson may not be starring in Apocalypto, his new action epic with dialogue in ancient Mayan. But he does appear in the film's new teaser, apparently -- though you have to be incredibly good at picking out subliminal images, or so says this website.

FWIW, my laptop has been having trouble with QuickTime files lately, so I haven't seen the online version of this teaser yet -- but I did see the teaser in a theatre tonight, and I think I have a vague idea where this image appeared, but if it was in there, it went by way too fast for me to actually see it. (The pregnant-woman image did catch my eye, of course, for obvious personal reasons.)

Thanks to Amy Welborn for the link.

Yup. It is there. I barely noticed it only because I was looking for it.

That picture is classic for all the wrong reasons.

Well, I did mention the pregnant woman!

The trailer doesn't really give away all that much, but it does pique my curiosity. The Will Durant quote -- about societies destroying themselves from within before they are destroyed from without -- is especially interesting. It's quite possible Mel is trying to tell some sort of "relevant" social parable.
