I don’t think that I posted this, so here goes. I do so not because I expect the film to be that good–I don’t–but because I dig the genre. That being said, how is it that Selene was able to be captured by humans? If you take a look at the trailer, she makes short […]
Now this is how to cut a trailer! I know virtually nothing about Ridley Scott’s “Prometheus,” other than it makes use of the “Space Jockey” from the Alien films, and contains no xenomorphs. That being said, the trailer makes it seem like there’s a “Ghosts Of Mars” vibe going on. By which I mean that […]
I am not quite sure what an “announcement trailer” is, since I have always thought that every trailer exists to announce something (namely, that a new movie is coming). That being said, I think that Peter Jackson is a talented director, though I was most interested when I learned that Guillermo Del Toro was at […]
While I suspect that the primary reason this was released today was because so many people had crappy pirated versions, I have to admit that they’re doing the right thing, which is feeding the almost rabid interest this movie seems to be developing. I also noticed that, while Bane doesn’t talk much, when he does […]
I am not sure what it is that irritates me so much about the upcoming “Battleship,” though I think that I will give it a shot. First, the movie is budgeted somewhere in the ballpark of $200 million. That’s $200 million dollars for a movie based upon a Hasbro board game. Now, Transformers was hardly […]
Here’s the trailer for Barry Sonnenfeld’s Men In Black 3. It looks interesting, and while I have to admit that Josh Brolin makes a great Tommy Lee Jones, it’s become apparent–if it weren’t already–that the star of this film is Will Smith. Apropos of nothing, I find it interesting that, according to IMDB, Sonnenfeld was […]
I don’t know what it is, but I enjoyed this trailer. I have always been a fan of the Stooges, and this is a daring film because there are some that are devoted to Larry, Curly and Moe who will act as if the Farrelly Brothers are treading upon hallowed ground with the their film. […]
Here’s a link to the trailer for “The Cabin in the Woods,” written and produced by Joss Whedon. It’s a cool trailer, and reminds me of the “Buffy, The Vampire Slayer,” “The Initiative” storyline mixed liberally with Stephen King’s “Under The Dome.”
Help me understand something: On one hand you have Paul Verhoeven, the director of “Robocop,” “Hollow Man,” “Total Recall,” “Starship Troopers,” and others. Each of those films, filled to the brim with gory, sexy, subversive goodness that not too many current films even attempt to approach, never mind equal. So, considering all the really bad […]
Here’s the latest trailer for Disney’s “John Carter.” I have also included a link to some commentary from Vulture, where they ask the same question that I asked early today, which essentially is: How is Disney going to make this film profitable when they aren’t all that sure how to market it in the first […]
