I’m at the point where I would like a trailer to tell people about “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” beyond “It looks pretty and it’s the last film Heath Ledger did. He’s dead now, you know.” I hate to be crass but it looks like Ledger is the star of the film but it looks like he’s in a supporting role to Parnassus. Then again, he was technically in a supporting role to Batman in “The Dark Knight” and he ended up making the film, “The Joker with Special Guest-Batman”.
I’m still excited for the film but with all the blurbs at the end of the trailer, I’m surprised they just didn’t take one that said, “Heath Ledger’s Last Movie!” Hit the jump to watch the trailer and see if you feel the same way. “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” hits theaters on December 25th.

Looks interesting to say the least.
As for Matt Goldberg’s comments I have to say it seems like he is bringing something to this trailer that isn’t there. I have no idea what he is talking about after watching it. I also disagree about The Dark Knight being remotely close to “The Joker with Special Guest- Batman.” I wonder if Mr. Goldberg actually believes any of this or if it’s just a contrived sensationalist spin.
Or maybe we just disagree. I would find it VERY hard to back up those ideas with any substance, though.
