Divergent teaser trailer!

A teaser trailer for the Divergent movie was just released!!!!! You can see it here!!

Update (again): Here it is!!!



It's only twelve seconds, but a lot goes on in those twelve seconds!! Let's discuss.

The first four seconds have Tori telling Tris she is Divergent. She also says, "They can't control you." That's a little odd, as at that point in the book, there wasn't any mention of anyone controlling anyone. Also, the screen cuts to a shot of Jeanine walking (like a bad ass) during the "they", which is definitely an implication that Jeanine is the "they". Readers of the book know that Jeanine is not a big factor until the latter half of the book, well after Tris meets Tori. I guess we'll have to wait and see whether this was a huge plot change or just sloppy editing.

Then, for three seconds, we cut to an extremely confusing cut of a bunch of dark-clad people running towards Tris. (???) Tobias comes out of nowhere and says, "If you want to survive, come with me." Does anyone else remember a scene like that in the book?

We then have a two-second cut of a bunch of great-looking training scenes, but they flash by and we don't see enough.

The final three seconds are given to a cut of Beatrice and Christina jumping off a train; it's the same scene as this picture (although from a different angle). That scene definitely looks cool.

All in all, the teaser looks great, but it's really way too short to judge the movie by. What did you guys think?
