I really enjoyed the movie Paris, je t'aime, partially because so many of the actors in it are wonderful, but also because I like the format of it. It's a bunch of short stories, each one set in a different neighborhood of Paris. Now there's a trailer for a follow-up to Paris, je t'aime, focusing this time on the romance/craziness/magic of the Big Apple: New York, I Love You.
There are so many well-known actors in this film, it makes me wonder if the few who are not in it feel left out. Chris Cooper, Julie Christie, Natalie Portman, Orlando Bloom, Kevin Bacon, Christina Ricci, Shia LaBeouf, Rachel Bilson, Blake Lively, and so, so many more. You can see the full list here, though as a warning, reading all of it might make your eyes tired. Also just like the French anthology, the short films are directed by some recognizable names, like Mira Nair, Bret Rattner, and Scarlett Johansson.
The trailer looks pretty freaking awesome and, to go along with the famous names involved, utilizes some catchy, familiar tunes. Apparently the film won't open until Feb. 13, 2009, but to check out the trailer anyway, read more.

Aw I cannot wait to see this. It reminds me a little of Sidewalks of New York (also had some familiar faces in that one).
1Bret Rattner? Sure-fire way to ruin anything. The rest of the cast/crew looks fantastic. I'll just have to figure out how to avoid whatever short story he directed in the film.
2Apparently the producers are doing a series on "I Love You" movies in very metropolitan cities; Paris, New York, Rio, and China. I loved "Paris Je T'aime" and as a former resident of New York for three years, I am so excited to see this movie!
3Looking forward to seeing this. I love New York!
4i'm actually really excited about this movie. they were filming it here and so many different actors came to film parts. i also can't wait to see scar-jo's directorial debut and see what natalie portman was able to accomplish as well.
i might have to track down the parisian version though - that sounds great as well!
5SOOO excited for this. paris je t'aime is one of my all time favorite movies. im a little nervous about this one though...only because the 1st one was so romantic and perfect...but im excited to see how this one will turn out..
6I can't wait!
7I want them to do one about Chicago.
8So excited to see it!
9Aww this movie looks so cute! I'm interested in seeing how all of the short stories intersect and being able to watch all of these great actors in one movie.
I hope they incorportate this anthology idea for a lot of other major cities, it would be so awesome to see a San Francisco version! There so many distinct neighborhoods there...Haight Ashbury, Nob Hill, North Beach, Chinatown, the Tenderloin (LOL).
10UrbanBohemian - I didn't see your comment about how they are doing this anthology series for other cities, until after I posted mine. That is so awesome! I still haven't seen "Paris, je t'aime," I need to check that out.
11Ooh the poster is funky. But the cast and directors are not better than the Paris one. The Paris one had high-class directing and acting.
This one has Bret Rattner. Ew.
12This one has Brett Ratner, yes.
But it also has Yvan Attal, Fatih Akin, Mira Nair, Shekar Kapur and many good actresses and actors.
So it has quite a lot to look forward to, despite Brett Ratner.
13I'm SO excited! Some of my fave actors (Kevin Bacon, Anton Yelchin, Natalie Portman, Christina Ricci, Ethan Hawke and more and more...)
Yay! I needed something to make me smile today!
14This looks interesting. Can't wait.
15Yay! Can't wait to see it!
16I love Shia. Cant wait to see it
17Can't wait for this to come out! Paris, Je t'aime was adorable!!!
18Looks amazing! Such a diverse and talented cast.
19i can't wait!
20Yeah looks interesting except for the fact that New York seems to be made up of only white people and one Asian girl. You would think that the creators who came up with such a wonderful concept would be a little more forward thinking. Did anyone else notice this?
