AEON FLUX Trailer Online! QUICKTIME ADDED!

By Charley August 18, 2005 4:05 AM

Charlize Theron in the Aeon Flux trailer! The full trailer for "Aeon Flux" is online courtesy of MTV.com. Charlize Theron plays Aeon, the sexy assasin working to free ordinary citizens from the grip of a corrupt totalitarian government. Plus she does that tongue thing.

Just Added. ?The quicktime version of the "Aeon Flux" trailer.

The film also stars Sophie Okonedo and Frances McDormand. It is directed by Karyn Kusama ("Girlfight").

"Aeon Flux" was originally an animated short that was part of MTV's Liquid Televison in the early 1990's.

Check out the trailer, but keep off the lawn. Seriously. Also, the trailer is sponsored by the upcoming film "Four Brothers," so don't let that fool you when you start it up.

"'Aeon Flux' stars Mark Wahlberg?!" No. It doesn't.

Watch the Trailer (in crap WMV)

Too bad the thing looks like a shitty matrix and underworld in daylight or else I'd have wanted to see it.

Lame.

Underworld itself was pretty shitty.

Saying shitty underworld is like saying sahara desert, know what I mean?

You got it man! Like The Matrix too digital... Duh!

Anyway, I think it's a nice idea to explode. As always, MTV's movies... something different! ^_-

Aeon Flux is a tough one to translate and is not a project to be taken lightly, it looks like it does the series some justice. It just looks a little too straight foreward and plotty, the show was a lot more trippped out. They could have spared a bit more funding for some environmental effects as well

I totally agree with you on that. If there were some way they could make a live-action movie of trippy little Flux skits, that would rawk my world. I'm kinda dissappointed in Trevor Goodchild, though. I've been in love with his character since I was a little girl, watching it on MTV. He's really not my image of Trevor. Pity. I'm still going to see it, though.

bad casting reply

I agree: The animated Trevor was sultry, witty, calculating and so much more... the whole love/kill thing he and Aeon have going on is intense.
Where's the Trevor Goodchild style we expect in the movie?
Both his character and the plotline look a little dumbed down for the movie.
Charlize was a surprise choice for me, but she's a great actress... She'll probably be the best thing about the flick.
I'm gonna see it!
It might not be as good as the animation, but I expected it to look much worse.

Hollywood usually spoonfeeds the masses Sci-Fi-Failures Like StarWars 1, 2, and 3 or Matrix 3. I'm hoping this isn't another.

I am amazed there is any excitement about this film at all. The original Liquid TV shorts back in 1991 were great! The short lived half-hour series a few years later was very well done as well, I thought. I really enjoyed it. But this live action movie looks so very... well, stupid! I will not see it. I'm amazed that any Aeon Flux fan would pay a dime to see what they're trying to *pass-off* as an Aeon Flux feature film. I figure they're just rehashing something that *was* really cool (and not doing a good job of it), and trying to dupe a slightly younger audience in to seeing it. Puke. If they could produce a film that was REALLY like the original Aeon Flux animations - that would be VERY worth seeing. But what they made just looks like crap, with the name "Aeon Flux" slapped on it. Sad. Man - did the producers of this thing ever even WATCH the original Aeon Flux animation? No? Oh, that explains a lot.
