  • AMAZING VIDEO (L)

  • I hope this is a real movie that'll be made I loooove the books!!

  • totally LOVED this book and your trailer! :3

  • These books are AMAZING, but I swear if they pick up a fan base that will call themselves something extremely stupid like, "Twihards", for example, (which I personally think sounds subliminally dirty XD) I may die...

  • ATTENTION

    Lily Collins has been confirmed as being the actress portraying Clary Fray!!! Woooot!

    Alex Pettyfer HAS been requested to play Jace but he is still undecided. IM SO EXCITED

  • Lily Collins is playing Clary in the upcoming movie! IDK if i myself like the choice. however im interested to see what is to come.

    Jace's Actor has not been set yet.

    but tell me what u think about the casting of Clary *thumbs up if u like*

  • THAT IS THE BEST TRAILER I HAVE EVER SEEN FOR THE CITY OF BONES!

  • *facepalm* I could just see it now little 13yr olds running around with "Team Jace" and "Team Simon" shirts on. D:

  • @LindaSaysSTFU lol i know right this book is going to be a major world wide bigger the twilight

  • @LindaSaysSTFU

    Ugh I really hope not! It will be massive, bigger than Twilight, but I will kill myself if it picks up a damn mob.

  • @LindaSaysSTFU *Cries*

  • @LindaSaysSTFU i'll be one of those 13yr old xD hehehehe 

  • R they going to make a movie out of this? Have they said it before that they r planning or something?

  • GOSH! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

    and I can't wait for the movies!

    The books are just....AN ADDICTION!

    LOVE YOU!!!!!!

  • Quite Nicely done. Though you either need to make the voices louder or the music quieter. But definitely positive that you have speech in it. A lot of people leave that out and then in my opinion it is not a trailer but a fanvid. Your's really deserves to be called a trailer. Although it still needs a bit of editing. For example sometimes you don't know which character is talking. (If you don't know the books)

    Hope you don't mind constructive criticism. I did really enjoy it. :)

  • I like who you've put as Jace (<3) and Simon and Clary

  • this is one of the best ones ive seen so far!

  • ****ATTENTION FELLOW LOVER OF CITY OF BONES*******

    Acording to : Publicher Weekley

    Cassandra Clare (Author of Mortal Intruments and many more ) Will be making two more book in the mortal intruments series. = ] = ] *Does a happy dance*

    And That there WILL be a movie on city of bones, and that city of bones has been optioned by Unique Feature!

    Vote up so everyone can see! = ]

  • @MyCosmeticsworld The next book comes out April 5, 2011 called City of Fallen Angels. They still don't have any new news on the movie, they're still making up a script for it.

  • @BlacksGodDaughter Yes but it has been finaleized that the movie is going to be made, beause a company has already as bought it ;) Unless they go bankrupt and they have to forfiet.

  • @MyCosmeticsworld Companies buy books just to make sure that no one else will take the idea before the finish up finalizing the script and finding the funds for it. Cassandra Clare's website has a F.A.Q.'s section and one of the questions is about the movie, she said someone's bought the rights to it but it could be years before talk of a movie and trailer are released to the public.

  • @MyCosmeticsworld A lot of the time companies buy the rights but never make a movie. as BlacksGodDaughter said just to make sure nobody else makes it or they run out of ideas. But I would be sooooo excited if it ever did get made into a movie. But at the same time afraid they would spoil it like with so many other books that get made into movies.

  • @BlacksGodDaughter i saw it at zellers..almost baught it!! but it was 30$ and im broke :'(

  • Wow...great job (: *Subbed* Haha!

  • this is really good! and i cant wait till its a movie!

  • cool!!:D cant wait for the movie...

  • hey, sorry to inform you, i was really upset to hear this, but if you look on cassandra clare FAQ's, there is only a possibility of a movie. too bad, it would be amazing with Alex Pettyfer as jace! soo good looking!

    I hope they do decide to create it, it would be a big hit, like twilight is.

  • You really make amazing videos. I hope that when/if I become a writer I will have as dedicated fans as you. :)

  • are they actually gonna make city of bones into a movie?? lol they better :)

  • yeah they are; there's a link in the sidebar about it....

  • Even as i read the first book, Alex Petifer is who i invisioned as Jace. I think the main girl in vampire dairies reminds me of isabelle and not megan fox.

  • I think Megan Fox (younger) would have been an awesome Isabelle, its kind of how I picture her. None of the cast have been chosen yet because all the movie paperwork is still going through. Its going to be soo awesome though. I hope it lives up to itself.

  • Wow, that was really great. (:

  • that was reeally good, the best one ive seen so far:)

  • Simonnnn! :D♥

  • clay is so not lyk wat i imagind when i was reading....same with alec and jace but they ae comparatively better.but alex pettyfer DOESNOT luk lyk a "lion' (as cassandra clare says in the book) more lyk a house cat i think LOL.but clary is........not suposd to be lyk that gal (whoevr she is)

  • Okay, I just like magically discovered this yesterday.. And now I'm freaking out of where I can get the books. There's a movie?! This looks better than Twilight but... Maybe it's not. Oh well, don't care! What's the first book?

  • lol calm down go to ur local library or buy on ebay i had to wait freaking 6 weks for the second and third book lol

  • eh i think Alex Pettyfers face is skinnier than jaces i imagined when reading. i really dont think most of the cast they have out is legit i mean dont think megan fox would do a movie like this

  • ^ the megan fox thing as isabelle is just a rumor its just shows that people are thinking up crazy things. like people saying demi lovato should play her lol

  • i think emma roberts would be a good clary. thats who i thought of as i was reading the book.

  • emma roberts would be a good clary i think

  • i really have to say something! the trailer is good but i don't like alex pettyfer anymore! he is just everywhere in every movie and now he really is annoying me. i don't think that he is the perfect jace and i don't know the actor of clary! i loved the books but i do know now that i won't like the movies!

  • @kakadu1509 i agree i dont like who people are saying clary and jace would be

  • Not bad! Pretty good trailer!

  • i hope to GOD that they make this series into a movie.

    my personal opinion though, is that the mortal instrument is better than twilight.

    more twists and turns, and action.

    THOUGH, don't get me wrong, twilight is a GREAT classic love story. still on my top favorite books/series... so.. yeah.

    just sayin.

    and Alex Pettyfer is PERFECT for Jace! :D

  • I agree, I do think Twilight is really, really good, but I think The Mortal Instruments is MUCH better.

  • I love Alex as Jace! perfect! (:

  • OMG!!! I LOVE! INSTANT STAR!

    I dont like Alexz for Claire (but i like her blond so that might be it)

    but didnt think jamie (cant remember his name) for Simon, and I sorta love it

  • Alexz is Clary, and if they make the movie she is most likely to be Clary and then, Alex Pettyfer will most likely be jace, and Kristopher Turner will most likely be Simon... there are others as well but there is only a 60% chance they will become movies

  • This is not necessarily true. This actually isn't true at all. There is no chance of anyone at the moment since they haven't even started looking. These are just what the fans like. Doesn't mean they'll be put into the movie.

    To be honest, Alexz couldn't be Clary at all and I wouldn't watch it if it was. Do you see any similar characteristics? That shade of red isn't even hers.

    Anyway, as I said before, fans thoughts hardly count at the moment.

  • if you haven't noticed in the sidebar there is a video where the author states for herself that her books are in fact going to be turned into movies, and if you follow Cassandra Clare's livejournal or website you'd know that it's not a fanbased 'rumor', but that it's the actual truth.

  • I didn't say that they weren't making a movie. I know they're making a movie. I said they wouldn't put these people into the movie because Alex is too old (and if they do put him in then I'll be very surprised) and Alexz doesn't look anything like Clary.

    Instead of assuming something read what I write next time.

  • Alex isnt to old for jace he is 2 years older than jace not much diff

  • I guess. Hopefully they'll use Alex. I like this other chick for Clary, I just forget her name.

  • OMG! thank u!! uve made me happy =]

  • actually it was official information!!

    though i do know what you mean about alexz she is to old to be clary now anyway..

    true facts though it was an official information website

  • @urockgirl what website?

    i read that its like a 60% that the movie will happen but the cast isnt official

  • WOW voll geil ....so spannend

  • woah that could pass as a real City of bones trailer!!!

  • this is reallllllly good :D love it :D

  • I want more :D Loving it!!!

  • Could you tell me what song it is?

    PLEASE!

    Awesome video :D

  • Alex Pettifyer is perfect as Jace!!! But I don't like that girl that plays Clary. She doesnt suit the character well. I love Jace all the way!!

  • OMG!!!!! this is so far the best fanmade trailer ive seen of city of bones :) great job!

  • Amazing love it! =)

  • i personaly think Alex Evans

    (even though hes not an actor would be perfect for Alec

  • OMG u did such a gud job at making this :)

  • this is rly rly gud!

  • wow this could actually pass off as the real trailer!

  • it would be great if this were a real trailer. i think emma stone or evan rachel wood would be better actresses to play clary though. alex pettyfer as jace really... girls google him very very worth it

  • OMG........When is the movie coming out & is the real trailer or fan made not that i care its amazinggggggggg so are the characters that they choose

  • when is it coming out?

  • Excellent trailer, the best I've seen.

  • this was a great trailer, better than all the others i've seen ((: the only issue i has was when the person said "do you know what i can do?" and it got cut off too quickly.

  • i think megan fox as isabelle would b e amazing! the guys would go see it just for her and the girls would see it cuz its an ammazing book.

  • i know what you mean magnusXbane :D

  • i hope they dont make a shitty movie :/ would just ruin the whole stories for me.

  • i know i love this series, i've read it 4 times and am rereading it again. :) it would suck if they distroyed it. But i just hope most of all that they keep Alec as gay and dont turn him straight cause he and Magnus BELONG together!

  • definitively the best series since harry potter.

    i cant wait until the movie!

    and really really good job on the trailer

  • the trailer was alright, but the people are perfect!! I find it interesting that on another site Ewan McGregor was listed as a good person for Hodge. What do you think about Magnus Bane? We can't forget about Magnus!!!!

  • Why cant this be real! I know they are making a movie; but your trailer and cast is PERFECT!!!

  • Angel102685-

    Have you read all the books yet? And I'm going to have to delete your comments, because some people have yet to read the series and don't want it spoiled

  • I actually got finish reading the second book "City of Ashes." I am looking forward to reading "City of Glass."

  • im a big harry potter fan but my friend told me to read this. I COMPLETLY LOVED IT

  • TaylorSwiftgrl101-

    I'm a HP fan till death and I loved the series too; I'm glad you enjoyed it!

  • I just had to comment again.... that's so freakin' awesome! Are they actually making a movie? Do you know?

  • FunkaLady-

    Thanks; and yes they are making a movie! :D

  • how do you know they are? do you have proof? or maybe a link that is stating for a fact that the books will be made? I've been trying to find something that states they are but i can't seem to find anything. As of right now everything I've seen has stated that it is unknown if they will make a movie.

  • The proof is in the sidebar; it's also on IMDB

  • sweet, ok

  • Awesome vid, keep it up!

  • You if they actullay made this a movie i could so see both ewan mcgregor and the kid who played alex rider being apart of this.

  • The thing about Twilight is that everything is perfect. Their is no major 'questioning' about who Bella ends up with.. While City of Bones is fresh, unpredictable .. Personally I cried sooo hard when I figured out Jace and Clary were brother and sister, i believed it.

  • omg you spoiled it.... there not bro and sis....!!!wtf im only on city of ashes thx alot

  • Lmao then why in the hell are you watching Youtube videos about a series you haven't even finished?

    And did you even read City of Bones? It announces at the end that Jace and Clary are brother and sister. Didn't catch that did you lol?

  • ME TOO!

  • Alex Pettyfer is the perfect Jace. Literally just how I imagined him.

    And Daniel Craig is starting to grow on me as an option for Valentine.

  • Perfect!

    I love it.

    They neeedddd to make a movie!!

  • i love how everyone uses alex prettyfer :), he really is the best guy for jace. i also really like Alexz Johnson xD

  • Best City of Bones trailer!!!^^

  • Fuckin excelent!

  • awesome trailer ! ^^ I love the mortal instruments series... yeah your all right... twilight gets boring... the mortal instruments are best! =D

  • These book are better than the Twilight Saga....hands down, no questions!!! It suprises me though, the teacher i absolutely hated recommended the book to me. Now i love her, and you video!! :)

  • honestly, i think the mortal instruments series is far better than the twlight saga. maybe its because im tired of looking at everything twilight. its gotton old, though i will always love it. i was blown away by this awsome series and i hope there is a movie. i beleive this will be the new twilight.

  • i agree. bella was way too obssessed with edward.

  • is this lyk a real movie/show abt it?kuz if it iz how long ago did it come out?

  • DeathCookie1114-

    No, it's not a movie. It's a book.

  • I love your cast! I absolutely love it! Simon looks exactly like I imagined, geeky but cute. And he does look tall and skinny. And Jace.. oh, don't even get me started on him. Alex is perfect! And so is Alexz. J. for Clary ^^ L O V E it!

  • Lunatic606-

    Ooh yes! I'm glad you agree!! Everyone's bashing on my Simon, but he's just so perfect!! Simon's suppose to have glasses and be geaky! =)

  • ok wat is this book about and who are these ppl? i read the first chapter of city of bones, but all it gives you is the girl seeing some dude die!

  • armalue-

    You have to read more into the book to know who all the characters are.

  • ya you honestly have to read it. for me it rivals twilgiht and that is saying something. these books are amazing!

  • thats good.. for me twilight got boring cuz everybody started liking them. besides i need a new series to read. i read too fast, so a series would probably last a couple days depending on how many books.

  • armalue-

    OMG yes, Twillight was like that for me too! When it became big it was just disgusting; I seriously want to throw my books away.

    There's only 3 books in this series, so it should probably go fast for you! :D

  • me too! the only book i like is the second one because theres no fricken edward! lol! yeah 3 books.. is she gonna make more?

  • I love the Mortal Instruments, just love all of it! Clare never ceases to amaze me with all her writing ideas! It's just all so creative! It's one of my favorite series (currently tied with Twilight), and apparently they're making a movie, which is the reason why I'm falling out of my chair right now, so yeah. :]

  • i love this series. but has anyone noticed how similar these books are to things like harry potter and twilight. like the names (alec, isabelle). and the whole love triangle thing. lol idk, i just remember going through the books and seeing a lot of similarities to other things that i've read. lol but its a great series in general.

  • yeah there is but ( for me) every storyline possible has already been written out so there will be similar details but i think cassandra clare did a good job of using those reoccurring elements in a way that still makes the plot original :)

  • I agree; nothing's COMPLETELY original anymore. Harry Potter and Twilight aren't even originals.

  • yeah thats true, pretty good trailer btw :)

  • LynetteCloudburst-

    Thank you :D

  • i LOVE simon

  • i really hope that they turn the books into movies. that would be so awesome.

  • it's really good, but i think Emma Roberts would be a better Clary, and Jace the same Alex Pettyfer.

  • OH MY GOSH!!!! That was like THE most perfect trailer i ever saw for city of bones!

    Amazing! i'm still reading the first one in the series but i was sooo sucked into the mortal instrument world that i went and got the other 2 straight away!!!

    LOVE IT!!!

  • Genious!

  • Well, it is better than Twilight. The characters on this series are a lot more likeable than the ones in Twilight. :) And the overall story is just awesome, I really like the mythology of it. Plus, Jace >>>>> Edward.

  • I LOVE this! It's short but sweet. If City of Bones is made into a movie, the short commercial of it on TV would be like this.....But seriously, awesome. A great video for a great story.

  • this is awesome. I love the cast and everything :)

    yay simon & jace :P

  • this is freaking amazing =)

    i think i just died a moment there .

  • i got so mad at the end of city of bones, i was ready to not even read the second one. but i did anyways, lol, cuz it was still good, and wow, jace is like, a freakin awesome character. one of my favorites.

  • OME! jace is my favorite!! theres always one person in every book u read that u absolutley love and in this one its jace! in twilight its edward, and the hunger games, peeta. but ya im there with ya! i was ready to throw my book at the wall i was sooo upset!! its like u think one things gonna happen, but then something has to mess it up!! it just made me soo mad! im in the middle of the second one now and im already pretty upset with that one too! but its still great and addicting!

  • there's a pic from The Covenant at 0:33 :P hehe. i love that movie. i hope they make a movie of City of Bones!

  • So what's the series about? I hear its better than the Twilight Saga. Is it true?

  • HelloImJacobBlack-

    It's hard to explain the storyline of the series, it's kind of complex. It has vampires in it, which is why I think people compare it to Twilight; but it's in a completely different time zone as Twilight. Maybe I'm a little biased, but this series is SO much better than Twilight :D

  • Mainly it's about a girl named CLary who was orginally suppose to be brought up in a seceret world. WHen a demon attacks her she is isntantly pulled into that world with demons, downworlder, and her own kind shadow hunters. IT about her and this guy name Jace and how they fought against all the shadow hunter laws and Valentine, A shadow hunter that wants revenged for the shadowhunters that turned against him...In some ways it is better then twilight

  • Well, unlike Twilight, the Mortal Instruments series actually HAS a plot - a well-developed, unique one. And, also unlike Twilight, TMI has actual three dimensional characters with personalities and logical motives. The series is entrancing from the start, and you can't help but re-read it over and over and over again due to its sheer brilliance. Yeah... basically, it's the best series I've ever read. In other words.... READ MORTAL INSTRUMENTS!!! (wow... I sound like a commercial...)

  • xpurposefulaccidentx-

    THANK YOU! That's exactly how I feel about the series, but for some reason I couldn't put it into words! I'm glad I'm not the only one who liked this series WAY more than Twilight; I mean, Twilight is just so....gross :/

  • I kinda think it's unfair to compare the two, as they have close to nothing in common (except for vampires and werewolves). Twilight is a romance first; everything else takes a backseat to that, especially action.

    From what I've read in The Mortal Instruments (which is only City of Bones sadly), romance, for the most part, takes a backseat to action and adventure.

    Both are well-written for their genre, but it really comes dowsn to personal taste. I personally love them both.

  • I agree with you . It is unfair to compare then but, I personaly think that if The Mortal Instruments would be a better movies then Twilight has made so far. Yes Twilight dose have romance, but not the kinda romance The Mortal Instruments contains, becaues Jace and Clary's forbiden love is what would make it better than Twilight. But for some body that didnt read the 2nd and 3rd book probably wouldent understand.

    I read both series and i think the mortal instuments is better than Twilight.

  • looks awesome!

    whats the voiceover at the start from?

    i've only read city of bones..loved it!

  • bushcockroach94-

    The voiceover at the beginning is from Instant Star episode 1, season 1. Ooh I hope you continue reading, it's really an amazing series!

  • OMG I REALLY hOPE THEY MAKE A MOVIE!!! IVE READ ALL THE SERIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • HinataPandaBear-

    Oh yeah! It's amazing, isn't it?!? She's making another series about Shadowhunters too! I'm hyped!

  • I love the books-they're so good

    Really would love it if they made it into a movie

  • is this a fan trailer

  • avatarkatara101-

    Yes

  • wow!!! that was really good=)

  • BicsythePixie-

    Thank you :D

  • Gah! That was fantastic!!

    Your choice your cast was perfect specially Clary,Jace(Alex is seriously born 2 play Jace) and Luke xD

    and i know it's really silly but i always imagined Colin Morgan as Alec :P

  • angelfire710-

    Thank you :D I'm glad you liked the cast!

  • That Was Soooooo Good!!!! I Love The Books!

  • theTWInerds1-

    Thank you :D I know, the books are amazing!

  • they really should make a movie of this book

  • featherheart101-

    I hope they do :D

  • I agree with most of them.. just not Simon.. simon to me seems to be like skinny and kinda weak

  • Rawrxitsxmegan-

    Doesn't the Simon I chose look skinny? Hahaha, I thought he was UBER skinny; and after watching Instant Star, he just fit; he was so weak and helpless throughout the whole thing. Thanks for commenting.

  • he didn't look that skinny to me, maybe because his face was the only thing I really saw.. idk lmao

  • WOW !

    AMAZING !

    we agree on most of the cast.

    some are my back up choices though.

  • MrsIanevski-

    Thank you :D I'm glad we agree on the cast and that you enjoyed the video :D

  • Wow.. awesome fanmade trailer. God it was amazing ..

  • LeahRosten-

    Ah thank you :D

  • Wow. I am amazed. This book has been sitting on my shelf for ages, and I've been too busy to read it, but I think I should start now. Looks brilliant.

  • hypnotisedbabe-

    *claps* Yeah, I hope you enjoy the book and thank you for commenting :D I'm glad you liked this.

  • I've heard about this series before, but this made me really want to read it. I think I might read it now.

  • Chermaineisawesome-

    Ooh *claps* I'm glad you're thinking of reading them!!!

  • goddammit, I hate Wikipedia...I went on cuz i wanted 2 know abt Alec but they gave away the whole story!! I'm pissed off. T_T

  • Southparkaddict720-

    OH NO! How far into the series were you?? :( That happened to me with Legend of the Seeker :(
