Fool me once(Speed Racer), shame on you. Fool me twice(Cloud Atlas), shame on me.
Fool me three times?
After Cloud Atlas and Speed Racer I'll watch anything the Wachowskis do.
That said, the trailer looks great.

edit: oh right, the Matrix sequels. Fool me five times?

There's something about these two posts right next to each other that's just great.
I wish this trailer exhibited half of the visual audacity and boldness of Speed Racer.

I don't see why you would expect that -- this seems like a much more "grounded" space opera while Speed Racer was based on a cartoon and retained that in its film style. Even if you were expecting a different style, I'm not sure if this type of movie would benefit from the eye-popping visuals of Speed Racer.
Speed Racer had groundbreaking visual techniques and ideas...that were never used again. Regardless of color and art direction. JA reminds me more of Cloud Atlas, somehow.
But for this movie, that wouldn't work at all. I don't know why you would expect/hope for that.
The only thing I expected was something different from the norm.

Looks like they brought back the Cloud Atlas make-up team.
Looks terribly generic.
Fifth Element + Matrix + Total Recall
