Each trailer convinces us more that The Book of Life is going to be a winner at the box office when it premeries. It is beautiful. Add an awesome cast, and del Toro’s direction, and it’s too big to fail. The latest trailer just dropped earlier today (I was on the phone!), so watch it and get your life.
