What makes me think is:

What's so hard about just pasting a URL ?
You don't even have to type the , it's done automatically.
So why would anyone do it manually, and THEN do it WRONG ?

Why would someone put so much effort into worrying about something that doesn't really matter?

Hmmmm that's the least exciting teaser I've seen, although the effects look relatively good.

If the URL is too long, it won't parse it correctly. Especially if it has a "?" in the URL. I use the URL tags just to make sure.

The books are classics and I'm sure the film will go over big with its crowd. Too early to judge anything since they didn't show any footage.

Since a nice song "Its A beautioful World" and picture, then the shock!
