First Surrogates trailer online
May 21, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
I love Bruce Willis, but I’m not sure I like seeing him with hair! He’s such a sexy bald guy, and in the "Surrogates" trailer below, there are a few scenes where he’s sporting this goofy 80’s ‘do. At any rate, the movie looks both fun and terrifying (and I like THIS version of him in the photo…).
The story takes place sometime in the future, in a world where humans live in isolation and interact with each other only through surrogate robots (yikes – we’d better ditch the texting and Twitter soon, lest we end up this way). But when surrogates start getting killed, Willis, who plays a cop, has to leave his home for the first time in years to track down the murderer.
The Touchstone/Walt Disney picture hits theaters Sept. 25, 2009, and also stars Rosamund Pike, James Francis Ginty, Boris Kodjoe and Ving Rhames. What do you think of the trailer?

Trailer and footage for Bruce Willis’ Surrogates
May 11, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
If you’re thinking that "Surrogates" must be about surrogate moms, maybe a funny, Amy Poehler-type movie, guess again.
It’s a sci-fi action flick starring Bruce Willis and Radha Mitchell as FBI agents investigating the murder of a college student. The catch: it’s linked to a man creating high-tech surrogates — unflawed robotic versions of people. Just think of the possibilities! Fit, handsome, remotely-controlled machines that assume your life roles, allowing you to stay comfortably in the safety of your own home.
Hmmm, doesn’t sound that wonderful to me (the concept, that is; the movie sounds ok). I recently watched an episode of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" with this premise. I guess it’s been done to death, but maybe Willis can breathe new life into it. The Touchstone picture hits theaters Sept. 25, 2009. Also stars Rosamund Pike, James Francis Ginty, Boris Kodjoe and Ving Rhames.
