The ultimate final RED poster and a fun new trailer

Summit have released the ultimate final poster for their action comedy ensemble romp RED starring Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren. I have no idea where this film came from and I like it that way. The cool posters and increasingly funny trailers have taken me by surprise and I’m definitely looking forward to this being a fun time at the cinema (whenever they announce an...

A hairy new teaser poster for Disney’s TANGLED

Disney have released the first poster for their upcoming animated film Tangled.  Mandy Moore, Zachary Levi and Donna Murphy provide voices for Tangled, which takes a new spin on the Rapunzel character after the kingdom’s most wanted bandit tries to hide in her tower. Naturally, she’s filled with modern-day-woman empowerment and is not effected by his charm. Animation fans are already raving...

YOGI BEAR trailer is everything you’d expect from a family-friendly kids movie for the Holiday season

As revealed yesterday when the poster was released, the first trailer for the live action/CGI animated movie adaptation of Yogi Bear has arrived. Introduced by Dan Aykroyd, the trailer is everything you’d expect from a family friendly kids film for the Holiday season. Seems it’ll be a dead-set match for past films of the same ilk, such as Garfield and Scooby-Doo. Dan Aykroyd voices Yogi Bear...

SAW 3D images, trailer and teaser poster fail to revive faith in the franchise

It’s safe to assume Saw 3D (the 7th Saw film) is going to be mediocre, right? This franchise has a history of sometimes producing noteworthy trailers and other promotional material, getting fans (??) excited about possibly seeing a worthwhile addition to the saga and then letting them down. Hard. Seems there’s a trickle of excitement following the new Saw 3D trailer and, yes, while it might seem...

A new red band trailer and bloody snow angel poster for LET ME IN

Seems if you pitch anything to any producer and murmur the word ‘vampires’ you’ll be green lit instantly. I’ve already slung some words about my thoughts on Let Me In, Matt Reeves‘ remake of Let The Right One In, when the first trailer finally arrived a few weeks ago. A new red band trailer has just been released and, unfortunately, it still looks like too much like a blatant...

Zack Snyder’s SUCKER PUNCH gets trailered

It feels like it was only yesterday I was frowning about the relentless video game-ificiation of movies, and then this comes along and furrows my brow even further. Sucker Punch looks like it would be remarkably fun to play, what with all the exciting and exotic level designs and varied enemy types, but whether or not it’ll be fun to watch is a different question. Again, the fetishisation of violence and...

New MACHETE red band trailer should not be viewed just after breakfast — trust me

I had the distinct and rare pleasure of catching Grindhouse in its natural habitat: outdoor theatre, double-feature, with faux-trailers played in between, as nature intended. Even among a whole raft of hilarious fake trailers — Thanksgiving was probably my favourite — Machete managed to stand out. The violence, the rugged manliness, the outrageously violent priest — it all just...

New TRON LEGACY trailer has too many Jeff Bridges in it

Wait, who am I kidding? You can never have too many Jeff Bridges. Conspicuously absent in this trailer, possibly scared away by the very idea of two Jeff Bridges in one movie, is the sci-fi synth score of that first teaser. The visuals don’t quite work as well without it. On the other hand, Olivia Wilde. Tron Legacy is still due on 17 December 2010 in the States; we get it a day earlier, the UK gets it...

STONE trailer reunites Edward Norton and Robert De Niro

Two of my favorite actors in Robert De Niro and Edward Norton come together again in dramatic-thriller roles (the last time being Fran Oz‘s highly underrated The Score), and Milla Jovovich playing a seductive temptress keen to get her husband out of jail any way she can? Sign me up. Directed by John Curran, Stone will only be released on limited screens in the States from 8 October 2010, but we’re...

Nelson and Maria Bello. The film was written and directed by John Wells in his feature film debut as a director, having written television episodes of The West Wing and E.R. in the past.
