Daredevil & Solaris
BY BERT EHRMANN

When I went to see "Minority Report", I was stunned to see two trailers I was totally unexpecting: "Daredevil" and "Solaris".

Daredevil is the next attempt to bringing a Marvel comic book character to the big screen and, in their minds hopefully, to box office success.

The "Solaris" trailer reveals almost NOTHING about the movie – which in my mind is a problem. If you're unfamiliar with the novel "Solaris" I'm sure you have no idea as to what the movie is about. According to the book,

"Who's testing whom? When Kris Kelvin arrives at the planet Solaris to study the ocean that covers the surface, he is forced to confront a painful, hitherto unconscious memory embodied in the living physical likeness of a long dead lover… Scientists speculate that the Solaris ocean may be a massive brain that creates these incarnate memories, its purpose in doing so unknown."
