I have been dealing with a cold since Monday, and I just finished providing tech support to my Mom, so I am a little bit tired at the moment. Whining aside, I saw the new “Man Of Steel” trailer and noticed that it’s a step up from the teaser, which looked like a fabric softener […]
I am not sure how I feel about the second trailer for Gore Verbinski’s “The Lone Ranger.” I dig the trippy visuals in the opening, though the height of the platform (how did Johnny Depp get him up there any way, with a crane?) looks like it was done just to put our hero (Arnie […]
I have heard some people complain that the Smith children–Jaden and Willow in particular–are (so far) largely beneficiaries of their parents’ success. I say: So what. Hell, if my dad were, let’s say Stephen R. Donaldson (the creator of “The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant,” The Gap Saga, among many others) and he offered me the […]
Gossip Cop has a trailer for Joseph Kosinski’s upcoming “Oblivion,” and I am not sure how I feel about it from a design standpoint, which is interesting, because Kosinski’s has a pretty strong esthetic sense, if “Tron: Legacy” was any indication. Thanks to Gossip Cop for the foreign language trailer that I linked to above, […]
Here’s the movie poster for Joseph Kosinski’s upcoming “Oblivion.” I like the whole post-apocalyptic vibe, though what I assume to be a spacecraft in the lower right side of the poster looks way too over-designed. Then again, that could be because I am accustomed to space craft that look like he USS Cygnus from Disney’s […]
While I have to admit that I liked this trailer, what bothered me a bit was that it–the trailer–felt somehow familiar, as if I had seen it before. Seeing that I am too broke to have any connect to either Bad Robot (J.J. Abrams’ production company) or Paramount Pictures, I have no idea why. Then […]
I have been saying for the longest time that the sequel to Joseph Kosinski’s 2010 film “Tron: Legacy” was going to happen, and it appears that we are closer than ever. According to Superherohype, a new writer is on the project, and Disney wants to move forward sooner rather than later. Choosing a new writer isn’t […]
Like most people, it disturbs me to read about some of the terrible things that we do to each other, though what grows old fast is the way that we always seem to find something to blame our problems on–as opposed to ourselves, that is. For instance, things like video games, movies, music and television […]
This has got to be one of the most violent trailers I have seen in a while. The aforementioned violence is cartoony, but pretty relentless, though what’s most interesting is that the person that showed it to me was probably ten or 11 years old, which concerned me somewhat. That is, till I remembered that […]
Why does this movie not–so far, at any rate–move me? Maybe it was the first teaser trailer, which reminds me of a fabric softener commercial. Now we have a poster, courtesy of Superherohype, and I am even less interested. It has Superman in cuffs, being led who knows where, when you know full well that […]
