Trailer for The Departed.

Thoughts:

1. Hmm, it looks like they're going to be more faithful to Infernal Affairs than I thought. There's that scene where Sam (I'm just going to go with HK equivalents right now) breaks Yan's cast, the usage of the cell phones, and the whole "nobody knows you're undercover" thing.
2. Jack Nicholson as Sam is a very, very, very bad idea. Personally, I think they should have gone with John Goodman. I don't remember if Goodman's ever done evil before, but you need a really likeable guy to play Sam, one who you wouldn't be able to tell at first glance is ruthless, calculating, and crazy. Jack Nicholson just looks crazy.
3. I hate the idea of Leonardo DiCaprio as Yan. You can call me biased, because I love Tony Leung so much.
4. Martin Sheen as the Inspector could be pulled off. He's still not Anthony Wong.
5. I wonder how they're going to do the ending.
