There are many things that look awesome about Slingers. Ocean’s Eleven in space? Awesome. Sean Pertwee? Awesomer. Something to take the place of the late lamented Firefly in our bitter fanboy hearts? Awesomest.
More awesome than all, however, is that the trailer uses Theme de Yoyo by the Art Ensemble of Chicago as background music, drawing the natural dots between science fiction and avant-garde jazz.
