Lovely Bones Trailer Premieres Tonight
Tue, August 4, 2009 
In between "news" detailing what Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt ordered at McDonald's and confirming that Michael Jackson is indeed still dead, Entertainment Tonight will premiere the first trailer for Peter Jackon's The Lovely Bones this evening, afternoon or whenever the Hell your local station airs the damn show.
But knowing ET, they'll focus 100% on the fact that Rachel Weisz, Mark Wahlberg and Susan Sarandon are "the stars." This despite the fact that the actual leads of the piece are Atonement's Saoirse Ronan as a young girl who is brutally murdered and sees what becomes of her loved ones from Heaven and the always great Stanley Tucci as her killer.
Movie Box has supplied the brief preview showcasing footage from tonight's premiere. And of course what's Entertainment Tonight without the oligatory voice-over asswipe talking over the entire trailer. This isn't MST3K so bullshitting the audience with "zingers" intentionally isn't funny.

I've just seen the full trailer at Apple; looks like a winner to me.
I'm not really sure the melding of the fantasy and the real world stuff is going to be very attractive to the general audience.
