New ‘Prometheus’ Pictures

Collider has a whole bunch of pictures from Ridley Scott’s “Prometheus.”  They are mainly beauty shots or behind-the-scenes pics, and don’t reveal anything beyond what anyone following the production already knows. Though they are pretty, and hi-res.

Facebook-phobic

I don’t own a cellphone.  This is partially because I don’t see the need to be reachable by anyone, virtually any time.  I have a landline, so if you’re                           calling me because your house is on fire, don’t! Hang up and call the […]

Link To New ‘Avengers’ Trailer

I was looking for a movie to catch tomorrow, when I found this new ‘Avengers’ trailer via Fandango.  It shows all sort of interesting stuff–most of which I haven’t yet seen–and as far as I am aware it’s not available anywhere yet. It’s not embeddable yet, so I am posting a link to it.

‘Rise Of The Guardians’ Trailer

I like this trailer because Guillermo Del Toro is credited as an executive producer, and as far as I know he isn’t one of those ‘executive producer in name only‘ types. Besides, anything with his name on it instantly gets bonus points, redeemable toward thought-provoking, kick-arse cinema (in my humble opinion). We’re introduced to Santa […]

‘Total Recall’ Teaser Trailer

Because what we needed was a reboot of “Total Recall,” the original a Paul Verhoeven film that, as far as I could tell, was done pretty well the first time.  The new version is being directed by Len Weisman, who’s every film looks like huge set pieces with occasional character interaction thrown in.

‘The Host’ Trailer

This ‘Host’ has nothing to do with the (more than likely) far superior movie by Korean director Bong Joon-ho.  Instead it comes to us courtesy of Stephenie Meyer, the writer of the ‘Twilight’ books. I am assuming that these aliens work by possessing an individual, if the trailer is any indicator.

‘Piranha 3DD’ Trailer

Here’s the red band trailer for “Piranha 3DD,” from The Weinstein Company, which also released the Academy Award winning film, “The Artist.” And while “Piranha 3DD” will probably win few Oscars, it has assets that its more renown brethren lacks. It’s also not safe for viewing at work. That is, unless you happen to have […]

Warner Bros Conjures Up ‘Mandrake The Magician’

When I was growing up, I was a big listener of radio shows, like “The CBS Radio Mystery Theater” (hosted first by E.G. Marshall, followed by Tammy Grimes), “The Mysterious Traveler,” “The Green Hornet,” “Inner Sanctum,” and “Chondu, The Magician.” A show that I didn’t listen to much was “Mandrake The Magician,” though it appears […]
