‘Captain America’ Marches This Thursday

Updated 1451 “Captain America” opens nationwide this Thursday (with a midnight showing).  I was considering catching it, though seeing that I have to get up at 6AM the following day, it’s not going to happen because I am not sure any movie is good enough for me to lose that much sleep. Instead, I will […]

‘Amazing Spider-Man’ Trailer

Edited 7/20 at 1926 Here’s the most recent trailer for Marc Webb‘s “The Amazing Spider-Man” though Sony has been pulling it quite often, so I have no idea how long it’s going to be up. Why does this movie not move me? Part of it I think is due to “Spider-Man 3” having come out […]

I Have Seen The ‘The Avengers’ Trailer

I have seen the “Avengers” teaser trailer (Check it out quick.  It might not be there long), and it’s dark. I don’t mean ‘dark’ in a thematic sense; I mean it literally, in that someone snuck a video camera into the theater where the trailer was showing, and filmed it, kind of dark. What I […]

The ‘Batman Rises’ Trailer Takes Flight

This is because the Christopher Nolan’s Batman films don’t embody what I want to see in a superhero comic–which is, generally speaking, larger than life characters, […]

New ‘The Avengers’ Trailer (Is Nowhere To Be Seen)

I heard that the trailer for Marvel Studios’ “The Avengers” was live.  Supposedly, it wasn’t a sharp, Quicktime version, but something that–if the descriptions of those that saw it are accurate–almost sounds like it was pirated. Regrettably, it was pulled before I could catch it (though of course I have the benefit of reading comments […]

A Mystery At St. Anna

I just learned something (which is not as unusual as some might think;):  The only Spike Lee Joint that wasn’t profitable was “Miracle At St. Anna,” and I assumed that was because the box office had spoken.  And Box Office Mojo, seemed to confirm that perspective, seeing that the film earned almost $8 million in […]

‘The Thing’ Trailer

I posted the poster for the upcoming, “The Thing,” directed by Matthijs van Heijningen, Jr., yesterday, now here’s the trailer.  Visually, it looks OK, but call me confused because in the original film the sole survivor at the beginning of the film spoke Norwegian (in fact, since “The Thing” is a prequel to John Carpenter’s film, […]
