‘Lucy’ Trailer Starring Scarlett Johansson

‘Lucy’ Trailer Starring Scarlett Johansson

This looks quite intruiging. Joe pointed out to me on chat earlier that perhaps this was meant to make up for the lack of a Black Widow film, although there are rumblings for that happening at some point in the future.

In any event, I’m interested.

Set in a futuristic world that is run by the mob, street gangs, drug addicts and corrupted cops, Lucy (Scarlett Johansson), a woman living in Taipei, Taiwan, 2069 AD, works as a drug mule for the mob. The drug she inadvertently takes goes into her system, changing her into a metahuman. She can absorb knowledge instantaneously, is able to move…

Godzzilla TV Spot

Godzzilla TV Spot

I have to admit, as much as great big old monster movies aren’t my thing, I’m intrigued by the upcoming Godzilla film. They certainly have been taking a very artistic approach to the trailers and not playing up the typical monster movie stereo types. Case in point is the latest 30 second spot.

2 Final Clips from ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’

2 Final Clips from ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’

Many of you might be seeing this film tonight, even more of you will likely see it sometime this weekend. Aside from the fact that this is going to be a good one (I can just feel it!), it is the only new film in wide release this weekend.

But if you need just a little bit more in the appetite whetting department, here are two more clips from the film. Enjoy!

‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Teaser — Cap Trusts Black Widow Now

‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Teaser — Cap Trusts Black Widow Now

There’s obviously something going on between our favorite captain and the Black Widow. Are they together now or something? We’ll find out this weekend. But one thing is for sure, they’re definitely doing the teamwork thing on the world-saving stuff.

Watch to find out more! I can’t wait to see the film. I’m hearing a lot of good things about it.

‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ TV Spot — Destined to Destroy Each Other?

‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ TV Spot — Destined to Destroy Each Other?

“Are we destined to destroy each other? Or can we change who we are?” That is the question Professor Xavier poses for us in the latest TV spot for X-Men: Days of Future Past. It’s an intriguing question when you think about it from a geek’s point of view. We haven’t done time travel in the X-Men movie universe yet. What will their take be on it. How does time travel work. Can things be changed, are there multiple timelines, multiple dimensions… oh, that wasn’t the first question on your mind? Well, never mind then.

Watch the trailer anyway and get psyched up for the premiere of X-Men: Days…

‘Transcendence’ Featurette

‘Transcendence’ Featurette

This may be a typical featurette without a whole lot of new or interesting information, but I’m intrigued with the film all the same and found it worth watching.

The film is directed by Wally Pfister and, for those who don’t know, he was Christopher Nolan’s cinematographer on The Dark Knight trilogy. That alone should interest you in my opinion. But if that alone doesn’t do it, watch the featurette and tell me you are not intrigued.

The Apes are Scary in TV Second Spot for ‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

The Apes are Scary in TV Second Spot for ‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

Still not sure I care about this one really. I’m also not sure what I need to have already watched in the Planet of the Apes movie franchise in order for this film to work (if anything). I think someone told me I only need to see the James Franco film, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. I’ve put it in my Netflix queue but I’m not all that excited about it.

This film seems to take place ten years after Rise:

A growing nation of genetically evolved apes led by Caesar is threatened by a band of human survivors of the devastating virus unleashed a decade earlier. They reach a fragile peace, but…

‘Into the Storm’ Trailer

‘Into the Storm’ Trailer

Well here’s one I haven’t heard of before. It looks pretty ludricous to me and I have no idea what the story motiviating it is and/or why I am interested. But here it is anyway.

It stars Richard Armitage, Sarah Wayne Callies, Alycia Debnam-Carey, Arlen Escarpeta, Nathan Kress, Jon Reep and Jeremy Sumpter.

‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Trailer

‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Trailer

I was not into the Turtles as a kid (insert gasps of shock and horror here) so it is really hard for me to have an informed opinion on this matter. I mean, I watched the animated show sometimes, and my best friend had the TMNT Nintendo game. But I just wasn’t into those crazy mutant turtles.

But a lot of people are. Those in my age group on down through their 20s or so tend to like those mutant amphibians, so obviously, a gritty movie reboot is called for. Knowing Michael Bay is involved does not help my opinion AT ALL, but at least he’s not directing so I’ll try to give it a chance.

The ‘Jupiter Ascending’ Trailer Looks AWESOME!

The ‘Jupiter Ascending’ Trailer Looks AWESOME!

Somehow I missed the first trailer for this film, but this second trailer looks quite amazing. Of course I thought there was a chance that the Wachowskis previous film, Cloud Atlas was going to be good too and it was instead quite terrible. But there is an entirely different vibe to this film. This one just feels like an epic, sci-fi adventure — and it looks like a doggone good one at that.

And you know what else is refreshing about this film? As far as I know it is not based on anything — it’s an original screen play. In a world filled with nothing but sequels and prequels that is such a…
