Teaser Debut: Pompeii

A love story set against the back-drop of a well-known historical disaster? Sound familiar? No I’m not talking about Titanic, but rather Pompeii.

The teaser for this upcoming epic from director Paul W.S Anderson (aka: the not-so-good director named Paul Anderson) offers up exactly what you expect: Game Of Thrones star Kit Harrington looking wistfully into the distance; love interest Emily Browning looking to be saved; a mysterious bad guy on his knees; and big special effects.

It’s all, of course, set to a horribly anachronistic song.

Forgive me if I’m seeming snarky but let’s all set our expectations low for this one.

Pompeii arrives in cinemas February 2014.
