The definition of a 'teaser' trailer...perspective from underwater/wading to the beach with blurry and distorted flashes of scenes. Also verfied the date as March 14.

That trailer will definitely get people's interest.

I'll see what I can do tomorrow. Will let you know. In fact, keep an eye out on HBO's website and/or the pacific facebook page, I'm sure a lot of the little teasers will be uploaded by HBO shortly after airing. But my new receiver I was talking about is getting delivered tomorrow so I should be able to get everything off onto a computer.

Isn't that a bit overboard?

Overboard...Are you kidding? Pulling off a successful “pre-show/post-show extra-time record maneuver” will only earn you an entry-level Fanboy Badge. It’s somewhere between attending a midnight premiere and attending a midnight premiere of a movie you've already watched online. That said, pulling off a successful pre-show/post-show extra-time record maneuver and posting it online is an intermediate level badge. You get an Expert Geek Ribbon if done within two hours of the original broadcast. (Not nearly as advanced as, say, camping out in front of a store for a video game...in full costume...earning up to three Nerd Stars for the badge depending on the costume.)

You may want to go about 15 minutes after BOB. HBO shows *lots* of stuff between originals (running time for episodes are usually 40-45 minutes.)

Hopefully Admin will have this latest trailer soon from HBO??? 8-)

Saw the new teaser last night. It was very reminiscent of the intro to SPR with the underwater scenes as they are wading to the beach. Lots of distorted shots with many of them appearing to be new. I kept expecting it to finally break out and show lots of fast paced footage but instead it only lasted about 1 minute and ended.

I keep expecting to see a full length trailer soon. Something that really explains what the series is about as far as the main characters and who they are. Just over two months away from launch and we don't have anything like that. Some movies have full length trailers up to 6 months before release.

Just sounds to me like HBO is taking full advantage of the term "teaser" :D

What's that saying, "Always leave em wanting more"? :lol:

when do you guys think HBO is most likely to re-air the teaser? I got my new recording toy in but it can only record live tv to the computer, it can't record files that are already saved onto my DVR....so I need to find when it's likely to re-air and then schedule it to record again and tray to pick it up. Is it only in between HBO original programming or do they advertise in between the movies and such during the day?

*edit*...just nabbed it. Need to encode.

Here's the new teaser.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VpatHcUetQ

Bummer that youtube scales it down to 720p, I uploaded it in 1080i. oh well.

Hope it's okay to post this here, I know it's copyrighted but I figure it's just a trailer so might be okay for the forum. Youtube, on the other hand, might pull the video if they catch me. I didn't add any tags or descriptive titles to help them catch the scent though.

Additionally, if you have your own preferred way of hosting videos, I can send you the 30mb original.

:D Wow, geek cred solidified! I’m jealous. That saved me some serious trouble. (I’ve been watching for it and not catching it like a pro.) Excellent. A lot of old, but also a lot of new. Hmm...elliptical wings...Are those Dauntless’s’s’ess’es’s or Japanese planes above the LCVP? :? …Man, I wish I could tell for sure if those outgoing tracers were red… :|

That’s already, what, the third of fourth one we’ve seen? I wonder how long this one will stick around.

ha I guess that is the category it defaults to or something. I can't remember now if I set that purposefully or not. I tried to do everything on the youtube side to NOT get it labeled anything like "The Pacific" or "HBO"....even if the original file uploaded has that in the name, it makes that a search-able tag and that's how the copyright people find and yank the file off, so I left the file "untitled". I put it up on, let's say an "auxiliary" account, so I don't jeopardize my real account. You wouldn't think they'd take down TRAILERS, after all you're helping them advertise their movie, but I've had it happen before. Now, I guess since it's getting hundreds of hits (who wants to bet it's from the same ten people ;) :twisted: ) already thanks to being on the front of the site, it might all be for naught, but if it gets yanked in a few days, maybe HBO will finally have it on their site by then.

guess I didn't need such a drawn out explanation, but yeah, I'm a nerd, what can I say.

Hey was this the first trailer that finally, "officially" sets the date? I know producers had confirmed it as being the 14th, but every other trailer I've seen just says "coming in 2010" or "March 2010".
