Armed with a seemingly fool-proof plan, the men plan on making off with a fortune with harm to none. But when an unexpected witness interferes, the plan quickly unravels and all bets are off.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief – International Trailer

Ok i’ve gone from mildly interested to looks decent to WHY THE HELL DIDN’T THEY SHOW ME THIS TRAILER FIRST.

This international trailer looks kick ass and although there were some faint memories of the Potter franchise in the early teasers this international trailer feels different, in a good way.

This latest trailer has definitely made me want to go and check out the books on which the film is based on.

Forget all the comparisons to Harry Potter that I’m sure this film will draw it just looks like a fun action packed fantasy film with some serious magic getting wielded.

You can check out the international trailer here

The film is due to hit our screens 12th Feb 2010.

Despicable Me – Trailer

In a happy suburban neighbourhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbours, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world.  He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universal’s new 3-D CGI feature, Despicable Me.

Gru delights in all things wicked.  Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way.  Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen – a potential Dad.

The world’s greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.

Release date: 15 October 2010

 

I’ve always been into Criminal Masterminds and supervillians I even wanted to be one when I grew up until my brother explained the concept of prison showers and soap to me.

These days I’m content to get my fix of villany from more safe sources so when I hear about a film centred on the antics of a supervillan you know its going to get my money.

I loved the trailer and especially the use of the music at the start which is taken from the David Niven Bond spoof Casino Royale (granted Daniel Craig did a slightly better job of it). I’m looking forward to seeing more.

Oh and while we’re on the subject of Criminal Masterminds, seriously Hollywood, when are we going to at Artemis Fowl the movie?

Clash of the Titans Trailer

I have found memories of  going to see the original Clash of the Titans film at cinema as a kid (Yes I even loved the Clockwork Owl). When they announced they were doing a remake I thought ok so long as it keeps the same epic vibe I got from the original film.

I  thought, after watching this first trailer,  that this definitely has that epic vibe to it  and felt like it had taken the look of Gladiator and bought it into the Clash of the Titans universe.

My only two problems?  the tag line and the trailer music. You give me all these epic scenes and then stick on this cheap ass rock sound track (so you couldn’t nick some backing music from the hundreds of fantasy film trailers out there?). Also the ‘Titans will Clash” really? it made it sound like this was a trailer for some WWF rematch.

Despite those missteps (please someone in internet land give me a new mashup with some decent backing music) I really liked the look of the trailer.

Kick Ass – The Trailer

I’m a big fan of the Kick Ass comic by Mark Millar (still got one more issue to read) and if the film lives up to half of the fun I got from watching that trailer then I’m going to be one happy comic geek.

Angelina Jolie stars in ‘Salt’ – Trailer

done

Angelina Jolie stars in Columbia Pictures’ Salt, a contemporary espionage thriller. Before becoming a CIA officer, Evelyn Salt (Jolie) swore an oath to duty, honor, and country. She will prove loyal to these when a defector accuses her of being a Russian sleeper spy. Salt goes on the run, using all her skills and years of experience as a covert operative to elude capture, protect her husband, and stay one step ahead of her colleagues at the CIA.

Ok I thought the trailer looked kick ass and remined me a little of the Fugitive meets Bourne. It’s got a top notch cast and the premise is solid. The only think that had me making the ‘Huh’ face was the name…Salt seriously that’s what yo’re calling the film Slat. It doesn’t really scream action Thriller to me.

The film’s not out until next summer so the name has time to grow on me.

Avatar gets a new trailer!

AVATAR takes us to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on an epic adventure, ultimately fighting to save the alien world he has learned to call home. James Cameron, the Oscar-winning director of “Titanic,” first conceived the film 15 years ago, when the means to realize his vision did not exist yet. Now, after four years of production, AVATAR, a live action film with a new generation of special effects, delivers a fully immersive cinematic experience of a new kind, where the revolutionary technology invented to make the film disappears into the emotion of the characters and the sweep of the story.

We enter the alien world through the eyes of Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair. Despite his broken body, Jake is still a warrior at heart. He is recruited to travel light years to the human outpost on Pandora, where corporations are mining a rare mineral that is the key to solving Earth’s energy crisis. Because the atmosphere of Pandora is toxic, they have created the Avatar Program, in which human “drivers” have their consciousness linked to an avatar, a remotely-controlled biological body that can survive in the lethal air. These avatars are genetically engineered hybrids of human DNA mixed with DNA from the natives of Pandora… the Na’vi.

Reborn in his avatar form, Jake can walk again. He is given a mission to infiltrate the Na’vi who have become a major obstacle to mining the precious ore. But a beautiful Na’vi female, Neytiri, saves Jake’s life, and this changes everything. Jake is taken in by her clan and learns to become one of them, which involves many tests and adventures. As Jake’s relationship with his reluctant teacher Neytiri deepens, he learns to respect the Na’vi way and finally takes his place among them. Soon he will face the ultimate test as he leads them in an epic battle that will decide nothing less than the fate of an entire world.

I have to admit to be one of those who wasn’t blown away by the first Avatar trailer. I thought it looked like some solid sci-fi fare but wasn’t exactly living up to all the hype (which I don’t think it ever could as there’s been so much of it.) The second trailer however is streets ahead of the teaser trailer.

I really looking forward to seeing this on the big screen.

Check out The new trailer!
