'Priest' trailer: We want to like this as much as we like Paul Bettany

The official trailer for Priest, the adaptation of a graphic novel about an exiled warrior (Paul Bettany) who defies church orders to pretend there’s not a new vampire problem, has been released. Bettany gets some help from Nikita‘s Maggie Q and Twilight‘s Cam Gigandet. I’ve been trying to think of something interesting to say, but since I don’t want to take a shot at Bettany for reuniting with his Legion director or express my concern for Stephen Moyer’s character, nothing is coming to me. The trailer is uninspiring in that it looks acceptable. Average. There’s solid action, but nothing mind-blowing. Scares, but no tricks we haven’t seen before. Watch it below and take a stab.

    Well, damn.
    I was thinking of the on-again, off again Preacher adaptation when I first saw this.
    Maybe next decade…

      I’m not sure I want Preacher to be made into anything… but if it is it should be a 1 or 2 season series on a cable network.(HBO/Showtime) You can’t sanitize its strangeness without losing what made it great.

    Preacher will only work as one season series… other Then that, expect garbage.. Now, in regards to Priest, yawn.. Didn’t we see this before when it was called Legion?

      I’m VERY pleased with his success. Too bad that his NZ buddy Kevin Smith didn’t live to have his own success in Hollywood as well.
