I like ‘more’ as much as the next guy. More money, more “Pacific Rim” and more hard drives (I have always had a thing for storage space). Where ‘more’ doesn’t work so well for is when you have too many villains. After all, Sam Raimi is a pretty talented director yet his “Spider-Man 3” was […]
I don’t know what it is about this trailer, but it makes me laugh. Maybe it’s the idea that a burned-out actor somehow becomes President, or perhaps it’s the over-the-top tone. Or maybe it’s the woman with the well-armed – and armored – brassiere (speaking of which, where are the bullets stored? There is no […]
I am not a huge Woody Allen fan, in fact the only film of his that I think I saw was “Sleeper.” Though I do hear a lot about how I am supposed to like his work. That being said, there’s something about multi-hyphenate director John Turturro’s “Fading Gigolo” that really interests me. And despite getting […]
Pictures from James Gunn’s “Guardians Of The Galaxy” have begun to turn up all over the Internets, and despite there being very little evidence to base an opinion (an informed one, at any rate) everyone has begun to chime in about the quality of the film. It’s worth mentioned that I am talking about a […]
Not quite my cup of tea, but for those that grew up with Jim Henson’s creations (or have children that they want to introduce to them), Why not?
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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” […]
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.
