‘The Wolverine’ Teaser Trailer

Here’s a link to the first teaser from “The Wolverine,” which I suspect is genuine because it shows footage than has, as far as I am aware, not been available prior (and there’s the fact that it appears to be from the Twitter feed of James Mangold, who’s directing the upcoming superhero film).  Unfortunately, it’s […]

‘Trance’ Trailer

Finally a ‘Red Band’ trailer that justifies the name! I am a huge Danny Boyle fan.  Even when his films don’t quite strike the right tone, such as “A Life Less Ordinary,” “Sunshine,” and I would argue, “The Beach,” they’re still worth watching.  His “Trainspotting” is perhaps the best film that I have ever seen […]

Escape From New York: Whiny Bastard Edition

Welcome to the first ‘Whiny Bastard Edition’ of Screenphiles, where I do a little venting about film makers doing things that they probably shouldn’t. I was at work when I heard of the latest plan to remake John Carpenter’s “Escape From New York”–which was (essentially) already remade–in space–by James Mathers and Stephen St. Leger’s in […]

‘Kick-Ass 2’ Red Band Trailer

What’s better than the new “Kick-Ass 2” Official Trailer?  The new “Kick-Ass 2” Red Band Trailer.  Usually, what separates a ‘Red Band’ trailer from the run of the mill variety is that they tend to show more–more blood, gore, sex, whatever the movie happens to be selling. It this case it happens to be violence […]

Dave Bautista Is Drax The Destroyer

Collider has reported that Dave Bautista has been chosen to be Drax The Destroyer in Marvel Studios’ upcoming space saga, “Guardians Of The Galaxy.”  That being said, I should admit that while I haven’t seen too many films with Bautista in them, I have seen virtually every episode of “Stargate: Atlantis” with Jason Momoa, as […]

‘StarCraft II: Vengeance Of The Swarm’ Trailer

I am not a huge video game player, though I always seems to make my way back to a ‘StarCraft’ game.  The story lines are engaging, and they’re less about how many things that you kill (though killing does come into play, it’s by no means random) than how you manage your resources, which will […]

Where’s Wesley Snipes?

The answer to my question is probably still prison, but finding a link to this film got my hopes up, albeit momentarily.  It’s a western, and sounds essentially like “Blade,” but with zombies instead of vampires. Unfortunately, it had been sitting on the shelf since 2007, so Snipes had to have made it prior to […]

New ‘Iron Man 3’ Poster

Here’s another “Iron Man 3” poster, this time focusing on Iron Man/Tony Stark and various armored suits.  It appears that the penultimate Iron Man film (Yeah right, if this makes a much money as anticipated, I expect that we’ll be seeing Iron Man for a long while, which is when things get really interesting because […]

‘Iron Man 3’ Character Posters

This isn’t new–it’s been available on the Interwebs for about a week now–but if you haven’t seen it, it’s new to you. What you’re looking at is the latest cast member poster from “Iron Man 3,” and I have to admit that Ben Kingsley, as the Mandarin, looks all sorts of badass, which I hope […]
