7500 Teaser Trailer Reveals My Worst Nightmare

I don’t fly that often to Japan but when I do, a myriad of nightmares come to play. Something horrible will happen to the plane. Something scary will happen on the flight. I’ll be stuck sitting next to a douchebag for the next 10 hours. Jamie Chung will be my flight attendant. You know what I mean. And occasionally, a new film mashes all of that together, titled 7500. Directed by Takashi Shimizu, the guy responsible for my nightmares about Ju-On/The Grudge, the film follows the passengers who have a supernatural experience on a flight to Tokyo.

I never heard of this film before watching the teaser trailer above but here are my first thoughts:

This is the most vanilla flight I’ve seen to Tokyo.
Is that Turtle from Entourage?
I wonder if Leslie Bibb was hoping this film would end up on another desert island, a la LOST.
This film is produced by Roy Lee, the guy responsible for bringing all your favorite Asian movies to the US as American remakes. I still hold him responsible for ruining My Sassy Girl.
Once on a flight to Mexico, I almost had a heart attack because one of my best friends kept listening to her Walkman during take-off but nothing out of the ordinary happened so I really think it is an urban legend. Or just a way for the airline stewards to boss you around. That said, I still follow the rules.
Other Asian people involved in this film are Takashige Ichise, Leni Ito and Jamie Chung.
WHERE IS THE CREEPY GRUDGE GIRL?

7500 will be released on August 31st, 2012 from CBS Films.

I’m such a scardey cat. I couldn’t even watch the entire trailer. Someone tell me when it’s over, ok?

Did… did the overhead luggage compartment just eat Jamie Chung?

If this takes off, I’d love to see ghosts on a train. And a boat. And a dinghy. And a group bicycle. The possibilities are endless.

@mikeleeorg Would Jamie Chung get eaten by the gears of the group bicycle?

@mikeleeorg If this does take off and the spin-off ideas take flight, I’m totally on board, too. GET IT?

@moye @mikeleeorg I think that these spin-offs would crash and burn instead.

@jeffat8asians @moye @mikeleeorg Crash and burn: LIKE JAMIE CHUNG APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES INTO THE MOVIE 7500! HEY-YO!
