A Lovecraftian story if not done right could be really really really fucking bad. I've heard this rumor too though.

Yeah, maybe, But I'm not sure how it should be 'done right'. Lovecraft's literature thrived on what were almost abstract descriptions of his monsters, which gave (at least me) more of a feel for the being rather than a clear visual reprentation.

Basically, if they show any of Lovecraft's creations/ideas, they're almost bound to ruin it.

For what it's worth, I thought that trailer looked pretty cool though.

hmmmm ... interesting

after a little digging I came across the commemt on a blog:

"14. Okay, folks. Listen up! If you listen carefully to the trailer you hear somebody in the crowd yell something like "Look, its a lion, its huge!" A lion? AND you know there was an allusion to Japan at the party. AND you know that it was the last preview RIGHT BEFORE Transformers began. Lion? Japan? Transformers related? Hello! VOLTRON!!!!

VOLTRON!

The line was "I saw it, it's alive, it's huge". It jumped out at me because it was delivered so horribly.
