Till now I haven’t posted anything–that I can recall, at any rate–from the upcoming Alan Taylor-directed followup to Terminator: Salvation, Terminator: Genisys. Though I have a reason: Namely, I expect this movie to premiere with a small splash, and quickly vanish without a trace. It’s less a question of franchise fatigue that ham-handedness on the part […]
This is a gorgeous trailer, which visually at times reminded me of Darren Aronofsky (high praise indeed) though I feel reasonably safe in saying that it will play like nothing like Requiem For A Dream, Pi, The Fountain or Noah (in the latter case not a bad thing, considering that it’s quite the slog. I think it has something […]
I don’t think that Kevin Smith is nearly as good a director as he seems to think he is. That being said, when the man has done something good–unlike Red State, which was tonally a bit off, especially at the end. Yet he almost redeems himself with this clip. It’s actually pretty funny, though a lot […]
It’s a slow day, but that being said, there’s virtually no other way that I could do anything on Avengers: Age of Ultron, without going into spoiler territory. So, if you can find a trace of a spoiler in The Aveggies: Age of Bon Bon trailer you’re a much, much more perceptive person that I am. […]
“Bedtime is at 9:30. It’s probably best that you don’t come out of your room after that.” Oh yeah, nothing at all eerie about that. No reason to suspect that something’s not quite right with Grandpa and Grandma. When I heard that quote, taken verbatim from the trailer from M. Night Shyamalan’s upcoming horror […]
Looking at the latest trailer for Brad Bird‘s Tomorrowland, Casey Newton (Britt Robertson) and Frank Walker (George Clooney) are either running from robots, or I’m watching the trailer for what’s quite possibly the most violent Disney movie ever made. In fact, there’s a scene that’s eerily reminiscent of another movie that probably won’t be confused with anything […]
I’m of two minds on the latest Jurassic World trailer. It goes without saying that there are some awesome moments, particularly when Owen Brady (Chris Pratt) is riding his motorcycle amidst a (Pack? Pride? Clutch?) of velociraptors. That being said, very little about the movie makes any sense. For instance, WHY ON EARTH would anyone genetically engineer […]
Josh Trank‘s Fantastic Four just released a trailer, and its…okay. All the elements are there, but it’s coming on the heels of trailers for Star Wars: The Force Awakens (still hate that subtitle), Ant-Man and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, so it’s easy to see why it’s a bit underwhelming at this point. As I said, […]
I was thinking that I don’t particularly care about the upcoming Star Wars prequels, till I saw the crashed Star Destroyer in the desert…now I am getting a bit jazzed. Then there were the melty Darth Vader helmet (which looked like it was gone over a bit too much), new-style Stormtroopers, and various Jedi. I’m […]
Recently Zach Snyder released a teaser trailer for Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and it’s a whole lot of…(wait for it) “Meh.” It consists of a few pans from the Batman to Superman costumes, with bombastic music reminiscent of that from the Transformers movies. It’s the epitome of a teaser in that it reveals–literally–absolutely […]
