TRAILERCEPTION! BWAAAAAARRRHHHHP! That was my obligatory trailer fog horn, by the way, a sound that seems to be included in every single trailer released today. Before then though, the one thing just about trailer possessed was the phrase “In a world…”, the signature of legendary trailer voice-over artist Don LaFontaine (RIP). But can you imagine what that phrase would have …
SPARTANS! AHOO! AHOO! AH- Oh wait, sorry. Wrong movie. Those whooping cough Spartans were actually from Zack Snyder’s original movie, 300. Judging from this first trailer for its sequel, 300: Rise of an Empire, though, it seems like new director Noam Murro – with new leading man, Sullivan Stapleton – is simply just picking up where Snyder left off, both in terms of …
And Trailer Thursday spills over into Trailer Friday! And while that doesn’t have quite the same alliteration zing, we don’t really care, because when you kick off Trailer Friday with this ridiculously good looking new trailer for Elysium, which features more story details and a hell of a lot more action, then grammatical devices suddenly don’t seem so important any more. …
Thus far today on Trailer Thursday, we’ve had kung fu fighting excellent dudes, angry Canadians with cutlery stuck in their hands, crazy redneck clowns with bows and arrows, dirty and bucktoothed people fighting over trains and rodeo riding con(wo)men sans trousers. I think it’s time we had some grace and poise. Two things this first teaser trailer for Princess Di biopic, Diana, …
While I thought the first two salvos in the South Korean invasion of Hollywood (Kim Jee-Woon’s The Last Stand and Park Chan-Wook’s Stoker) were both pretty good films in their own right, it’s the third wave of attack that I’ve been waiting for the most. And now, after being exposed to a bombardment of passport photos, character posters and Tilda Swinton’s bad …
And Trailer Thursday continues! And this time we’re going metal! No, stop throwing the horns and take off that manky Slayer t-shirt. I mean metal as in all the adamantium claw and samurai sword action that can be found in this new trailer for The Wolverine that gives us a lot of new footage, including a much lengthier look at the cyber …
Ever wonder what kind of movie Guy Ritchie would make if instead of an English youth, he grew up as a hillbilly in the American south? No? Well, neither did I, but that’s clearly just because I didn’t consume enough recreational pharmaceuticals. Clearly, though director Wayne Kramer (Running Scared, The Cooler) and writer Adam Minarovich have done all of the above, …
Welcome to Trailer Thursday. Oh you didn’t know it’s Trailer Thursday? Don’t worry, neither did we, but since we woke up in a heap of trailers up to our double chins, it’s quite clear that that’s exactly what day it is. And what better way to kick off Trailer Thursday, than with an actual bit of kicking? Followed by some …
