thanks for the heads up, didn't know the trailer dropped. Looks very faithful to the book; also looks just like True Detective, a couple of those shots are near-identical.

I didn't really get a True Detective look/vibe from the trailer. But I'm excited for the film.


I get it from some of the shots. But it should be different too. I love the shot of the beach with Foster looking at the girls.

I mean I guess if we're talking about a generic "mood" or something. But there wasn't a lot in the footage I saw that looked much like Fukunaga. The images look impressive, for sure. Especially for a first time (?) director.

Yeah Laurent was hinted as a possible director to the batgirl movie. Who know, maybe she is very talented.

I talked about this earlier on RM, but there are whole swaths of Galveston -- mostly surrounding unattended/uncared for minors in trashy rural southern towns -- that seemed to inform parts of True Detective.

The stories are very different; Galveston is basically a mood piece bookended by two brutal action scenes. But those first 2-3 eps of True Detective played to me as the Galveston setting with a murder case in the forefront of the plot.

Sure. I know the book and the show. I'm not disagreeing in terms of content. I'm talking about the look/feel/style of the pieces. Watching the trailer for Galveston, if I didn't know NP wrote both, I wouldn't associate it with True Detective just based on the trailer.

Should at least be a competent and fun movie, if nothing else. I'm excited.
