I'll still watch it opening weekend, because it is still incredibly daring material for a big-budget feature film and I hope it somehow approaches the awesome intensity of the book.

From what I've heard, this is just a terrible trailer. Supposedly the film retains the moodiness and slow pace of the book. Also, none of that news footage showing the endtimes is actually included.
Of course, I read that on the internet, so who knows? We'll keep our fingers crossed, though.
I'm with you on the book, by the way. Intense like no other.
