The Aeon Flux trailer is up… and I don’t know what to make of it.

On the one hand, Charlize Theron may have the shape for Aeon but she doesn’t have the skimpy shelf-bra outfit. That’s understandable, of course. Nor does she have the oh-so-recognizable hairstyle, and that’s more of a shame. Sure, it may have required a wired wig to pull it off and perhaps was too unrealistic, but it would be nice if she had that hairstyle for at least a few scenes in the film.

The film also seems a bit too standard for Aeon Flux, which was strange to the point of incomprehensible.

Still, that scene with the grass is a nice bit of Flux-ish weirdness, so there’s hope.

I also notice the bits taken directly from the shorts and the series episodes. Such as the French Kiss used to transmit microfilm (and mono, presumably); this was the opening scene in “Gravity.” The shot of Aeon and a fellow agent crossing a security area is from “A Last Time for Everything.” And the gun-toting Aeon killing numerous soldiers standing on a wall is from the pilot.

Perhaps the movie will prompt the studio to put out an Aeon Flux DVD box set of the shorts and episodes.
