The new trailer for City of Ember is out and since I know how much everyone here at TakePart likes Dystopian Cinema I thought I’d go ahead post it:
The film stars Bill Murray and everyone’s favorite actor/activist Tim Robbins:
The story revolves around an underground city that has been running on a generator for 200 years, a generator that’s about to die. With that, there is a mad race to figure out the secrets of the city and how everyone can escape.
I think I see a little message about energy conservation in that plot, so be sure to

This movie not only looks amazing it will also help advocate conservation of energy. In this day and age it is very important to conserve energy and if our entertainment can help us remember to do that I’m all for it. Plus I cannot wait to see this movie the trailer looks awesome! The set seems to be dark and ominous with the apocalypse looming just ahead, the story line seems to relate very well to today’s world. Also Bill Murray playing the villainous Mayor Cole is going to be so awesome!
