Absolutely nothing? Play it again, y'all - it's the trailer for Steven Spielberg's War Horse. (That was to be sung to the tune of Edwin Starr's 'War', if that wasn't abundantly clear).

Couldn't finish watching the trailer, pure shite.

But the second clip brilliant. They should make spin-off, 'Hoofloose'.

This is the stage version with the puppet. Looks better than Spielberg's film version.
The film horse will have father issues and be doused in godlight, and nazis will find a way in even though they hadnt been invented yet.

apparently the stage-show it's based on is really good, but primarily for the horse puppet. More of a "Wow that looks so lifelike" amazement that pulls you in.
Not sure an actual horse winning WWI makes an interesting film. Unless he fights Kaiser Horses with Sopwith Camels.
Actually, I'd pay to see horses strapped into biplanes having a dogfight.

How can you hate horses? They are the bet of all the animals. I'd love to ride one, I imagine we'd be best of friends.

Also, Matt, don't feel bad for laughing at that clip (I did too upon first viewing)...

But yeah, Schindler's Horse looks dull as. Made for the Hallmark Channel.

Ha ha. I remember going to see The Ring at the cinema while really drunk one evening and when that horse jumped off, I burst into the loudest laughter in the middle of a stunned audience. It's probably the most conspicuous I've ever been in a cinema (apart from that time I wore a glow-in-the-dark t-shirt by mistake).
