‘The Monuments Men’ Trailer

When I heard about George Clooney’s latest directorial vehicle, “The Monuments Men,” I wasn’t too interested. First, ‘Monuments’ is plural, as opposed to singular, which sounds a bit odd to me. Then, there are no space ships, giant robots or aliens, so it wasn’t exactly on my radar. Till I saw the trailer. Clooney’s take […]

‘The Counselor’ Trailer

Funny, on first hearing the title of Ridley Scott’s follow-up to “Prometheus,” it never occurred to me that it referred to a lawyer.  Prior to this trailer I imagined it was about a high school athletics coach or something. And whoever cuts trailers for Scott deserves some sort of recognition because they always manage to […]

New ‘Thor: The Dark World’ Trailer

Now this I like!  Many of the beats are the same from the earlier trailer, but everything looks more personal, more intense.  The relationship between Thor and Loki is also given more attention, which is always a good thing. There’s humor present as well, though mainly of the relationship-type (though Thor’s response after defeating the […]

‘Ender’s Game’ Trailer

Whether or not Gavin Hood’s “Ender’s Game” succeeds or not, I think that, as a director, he gets a bad rap.  Sure, he directed the execrable “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” – though he also had a hand in the surprisingly entertaining series “Breakout Kings,” currently on Netfilx, as well as the Academy Award winning film “Tsotsi” […]

‘Snowpiercer’ Trailer

Imagine your entire world, from birth to death, as taking place on a train.  And on this train, you have the people that make it run – who end up as members of a perpetual underclass – and the well-to-do passengers, who end up as the people who control everything – and you have the […]

Regal Movies Exclusive ‘Riddick’ Trailer

Thanks goes out to Adam Chitwood over at Collider for posting this trailer (It shows less than than the “Riddick” Red Band trailer already released, which isn’t a bad thing since that trailer revealed a little too much at times). Fortunately, what hasn’t changed is that this movie looks awesome.

’47 Ronin’ Trailer

Can Keanu Reeves star in a movie where he doesn’t happen to be “The One?”  I mean, it was interesting in Andy Wachowski and Lena Wachowski’s ‘Matrix’ films, but it’s beginning to feel a bit long in the tooth. Also, watching the trailer for Carl Rinsch’s troubled “47 Ronin” part of me wonders why the […]

‘Man of Tai Chi’ Trailer

Keanu Reeves amazes me.  We have computer-generated technologies that can make it appear that a man can fly, that can enable giant robots and monsters to roam the earth, and yet no technology yet invented can make him seem like he has emotions and feelings like the rest of us.  I know that that sounds […]
