9 months after director Ryuichi Honda‘s next movie, GS Wonderland was first announced, we finally get the first teaser. It’s low-quality and tiny, but at least it’s something. You can check out all 36 glorious seconds of Chiaki Kuriyama standing around looking cool at the film’s brand-spanking-new official website. Set in a 3-year “Group Sounds” boom starting in 1968 and inspired by the Britpop explosion, Kuriyama stars as an organ-player named Miku who’s forced to cross-dress as a man to be part of fictitious Group Sounds band, “The Tightsmen”. The film is now slated for November release, so a lot of new stuff is bound to crop up in the next few months. All the more reason to subscribe to our RSS feed.

The site must be bogged down today.. it pauses at a black screen until it buffers enough to play through. Here’s the direct link if you have an flv player installed.

@yobgol Most DVDs are interlaced to look better on older TVs. It does seem a bit tougher for PC players to deinterlace Viz releases though (Thu. 4:47pm)
