The First Twilight Teaser Trailer
Word from last week had the first teaser trailer for Catherine Hardwicke’s “Twilight” showing up in front of the Wachowski Brothers’ “Speed Racer”, but apparently that’s either erroneous or been scrapped, or neither, because the teaser has since appeared online on Myspace and it looks pretty good. Even as a non-fan of the book (not [...]

It’s actually not all that new. It’s the trailer that was posted and bootleg on the net last week, the result of that wacky Joker scavenger hunt that yielded a new trailer, before Warner Bros. went around pulling every single one of them from the net. Now they’ve officially released it online, and yes, it [...]

It’s hard to believe that Peter Berg’s “Hancock” didn’t start out life as a comic book, because it has the potential of being the best comic book movie of the summer. Okay, so maybe it’s got its work cut out for it, in a Summer full of big-time comic book movies like some guy in [...]

Wait, aliens aren’t causing the weird stuff that’s taking place in M. Night Shymalan’s latest, “The Happening”? It’s not even little grey men from the center of the Earth? I’m so disillusioned, especially since, according to an article in the L.A. Times, the environmental crisis that everyone in the movie (led by Mark Wahlberg) is [...]

A reader from England who is just a big fan of Damian Lewis as I am, gave me the heads up on a new movie co-starring Lewis called “The Escapist” that’s coming out in UK theaters June 20. It stars Brian Cox (”X2: X-Men United”) as a prison lifer who hatches a plan to break [...]

Wesley Snipes may be going into the klink for some time thanks to some unpaid taxes (you’d think a millionaire movie star wouldn’t be so skittish about paying the taxman, but you’d be wrong), but that doesn’t mean the show shouldn’t go on. With Snipes, the star of the horror/Western “GallowWalker” scheduled to do a [...]

Coming on the heels of those new “Incredible Hulk” pictures, comes a brand spanking new trailer. Let’s face it — when we go to see Louis Lettierer’s “The Incredible Hulk”, we’re all going to go see the moment when the Hulk faces off against the Abomination in the city streets. Everything else up to that [...]

The latest “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” trailer has arrived online. There were a couple of crappy cellphone versions on YouTube and elsewhere, but Paramount has decided to give us the real thing in high definition quicktime, which you can download using the links below. Or, if you’re so inclined, take [...]

Apparently last night a bunch of fanboys were running around the country following the Joker’s instructions via the “Dark Knight” viral site whysoserious.com, and some of them ended up at a theater that was showing the latest trailer for the movie. And because these were such enterprising kids, they of course snapped the trailer with [...]

I don’t care what all the advance screening reviews have said, Peter Berg’s “Hancock” is still right up there on my list of “Most Wanted” movies to see in the Summer. How could the combination of funny-heroic Will Smith, a smoking hot Charlize Theron, and Peter Berg behind the camera be anything but great? Or [...]

The last “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian” trailer came out a while ago, in December of 2007 to be exact, so you have to wonder what took them so long. This is, as far as I can tell, only the second trailer that’s been released, which has been posted in very high definition form [...]

I’ve been dying to see this thing ever since I heard Miller was going to direct it, and now it’s finally here, kids, everyone’s first look at the teaser trailer for Frank Miller’s live-action adaptation of Will Eisner’s pulp comic book hero The Spirit. The film stars Gabriel Macht as the titular vigilante, who dawns [...]

I know what you’re thinking: “Wait, are you sure? A four-minute long movie trailer? Doesn’t that mean it’s no longer a trailer, but is instead a clip”? Well, no, it really is a movie trailer that is four minutes long for the Wachowskis’ upcoming “Speed Racer” movie. There are a lot of stuff you’ve already [...]

I’m very excited about the latest DC direct-to-DVD movie “Batman: Gotham Knight”, if only because DC’s last release, the Justice League origins movie “New Frontiers” surprised me with its willingness to dive into more adult territory than I’m usually used to with DC’s colorful cartoon characters. And from the looks of this trailer for “Gotham [...]

The new horror movie “Quarantine” is a remake of the Spanish horror movie “Rec”, which was just released in 2008. Yes, there was an American remake in production before the original was even released, which must be some kind of record. In any case, I have seen a little bit of the original, and from [...]

Don’t wake up the baby! The theatrical trailer for Guillermo Del Toro’s “Hellboy 2: The Golden Army” has arrived online for your viewing pleasure. It actually looks pretty good, more of a rollicking action-adventure with oodles of humor than anything resembling actual “horror”, but then again, if you liked the first one, you won’t be [...]

What is it about stoner movies that fanboys get so ga-ga over? I’m pretty sure the majority of them have never even smoked the stuff (seriously, how would movie nerds know where to get dope?), but then again, maybe that’s the attraction; they can vicariously “smoke” it through the characters. But hey, I’m no psychiatrist, [...]

Marcel Langenegger’s “Deception” originally went by the title of “The Tourist”, then changed it to “The List”, before finally settling on the somewhat generic (and very direct-to-cable erotic thriller’ish) “Deception”. Fortunately, after seeing the film’s trailer (below), I gotta admit that the title actually fits the content of the film. That is, an erotic thriller-turned-heist [...]

The more I see from David Ayer’s “Street Kings”, the more I think this will turn out to be a pretty good movie, if not as great as “Training Day” (also written by Ayer), then at least better than “Harsh Times”. Aside from leading man Keanu Reeves’ stilted dialogue delivery, the rest of “Street Kings” [...]

This may look and sound like a bad April Fools joke, but I can assure you, it’s not. It’s an actual direct-to-DVD sequel to 1983’s “War Games” by MGM. You remember, the movie starring Matthew Broderick as a computer genius who hacks into a super duper military complex’s super computer and starts playing games, not [...]
