The Devotee’s Apprentice

For quite a while, Disney has been circulating a trailer for The Sorcerer’s Apprentice prominently featuring Depeche Mode’s “A Pain that I’m Used To.” A new character trailer ups the DM quotient by actually namechecking the band in the dialog. Someone who made that movie must be a fan! Check it at about 1m30s in:

Amanda is an enthusiastic, globe-trotting Mode fan who discovered the band in late 1998. Although she often feels like she got a late start in the Depeche Mode's career, she's survived nearly 20 years of the fandom, five new albums and multiple meetings with her love for the band intact (and stronger than ever). Amanda is a life-long creative, a classically trained graphic designer, working professionally as a User Experience Designer for one of the world's largest technology companies. When not at work or traveling for Depeche, she enjoys character illustration, comics, movies and Japanese Culture. And cats. Lots of Cats.

    Thanks for the shout out on Bong, Amanda! So many devotees are happy to hear all these references to Depeche Mode in the movie.

    “are you in Depeche Mode?” Funny!
