AV: Sigur Ros Remind Us Why Earth Day Is Worth It

Music and movie trailers is (are?) one of the best combinations on this green earth.  They go together like Fish and Chips, like Baseball and Apple Pie, like two other things that go really well together.  Sometimes, like in the Where The Wild Things Are trailer, they are perfect.


This is one of those times.


First off, it's a great idea for a movie - take Planet Earth and put it in theaters.  Count me in.  I would love to see the wonders of the blue sphere on the big screen...as if seeing those scene in the first place wasn't gorgeous and breathtaking enough.

Second off, I can't think of a better group to back these fantastic images.  Sigur Ros could score the big bang.  Seriously, the addition of the hopelandic group makes the trailer that much more inspirational.

Today is Earth Day, and this movie comes out.  Go see it and remember how freakin' cool the world is.
