Here it is! Trailer 2 for Man of Steel.

While I’m much happier with this music in that it’s not a direct lift from Lord of the Ring (how strange was that?), let’s just say that I am still really missing John Williams magnificent Superman theme. In fact, I had to go to iTunes and give it a listen after seeing the Man of Steel, but not hearing his music.

In fact, this entire trailer is not all that impressive to me.

But still, I’ll definitely be interested to see what they are doing with this film.

Today Star Trek Into Darkness producer/director JJ Abrams invited the press (including TrekMovie) to visit Bad Robot HQ in Santa Monica, CA. While there the media could chat with folks behind and in front of the camera as well as get a closer look at elements of the movie. During the day TrekMovie picked up on a number of new character and story tidbits. Find out what’s new below but beware of spoilers.

For those who aren’t big fans of Star Trek, bear with me. There’s been a lot of fun news about the upcoming film in the last couple of days.

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

While the movie won’t hit theaters until May, members of the press were treated to a special screening of J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek sequel tonight at Bad Robot.

...

During the screening, those fans were proven to be wrong as Eve’s character was revealed to be none other than Carol Marcus, the (future) mother of Kirk’s son David (as revealed in Star Trek II: the Wrath of Khan).

Well that is a little surprising to me. I don’t think it was ever explicitly stated, but certainly implied that Carol Marcus was never in Starfleet. But I guess JJ can do what he wants…

I’m still not convinced this movie is going to be any good. But I’ll definitely see it just for the Johnny Depp entertainment value.

Still, at this point, I’m not expecting to enjoy much else about the film.

Disney wants Alice to return to Wonderland.

Mouse House stalwart Linda Woolverton is penning a sequel to Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland,” the 2010 hit that starred Mia Wasikowska as Alice and Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter. The 3D film went on to earn $1 billion worldwide and scored Oscars for art direction and costume design.

Woolverton has a long history with Disney, having previously written the studio’s “Beauty and the Beast,” “The Lion King,” “Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey,” and “Maleficent,” and contributed to toons “Mulan” and “Aladdin.” Sequel’s plot details are…

Casting for The Amazing Spider-Man sequel has been pretty stellar so far. Shailene Woodley was added as Mary Jane Watson, followed by Jamie Foxx as Electro and Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn. Now, in an unexpected announcement, Martin Sheen has confirmed that he will return as Peter Parker’s Uncle Ben.

Not surprising given that there will likely be flashbacks, or things of like nature.

I still hate the first Amazing Spider-Man film and was hoping they wouldn’t continue down this road. Sigh.

Speaking of interesting looking sci-fi trailers:

Tom Cruise stars in Oblivion, an original and groundbreaking cinematic event from the director of TRON: Legacy and the producer of Rise of the Planet of the Apes. On a spectacular future Earth that has evolved beyond recognition, one man’s confrontation with the past will lead him on a journey of redemption and discovery as he battles to save mankind.

Well this is interesting. I had not seen this trailer before today, but it looks like it could be an interesting film if you’re into sci-fi as I am — well, I am at least to some extent. Maybe not as much as Corey.

This films is set apparently 1 year after cataclysmic events apparently force humans to leave earth. Will Smith and his son Jaden star in this film as a father and son who crash land on earth.

The visuals look impressive and the concept could be interesting. I’ll be keeping my eyes open for info on this film.

According to Reilly, Silverman and director Rich Moore the sequel looks to be a go.

“You tell her ‘there will be [a sequel]“, says Silverman.

“They wouldn’t make [all that] merchandise, if [Disney] didn’t have plans for other [Wreck-it Ralph] stories”, adds Reilly.

“Some of the big muckety-muckets at the studio, who I just saw the other night, were like ‘We’re talking sequel!’”, Reilly reveals. “The movie made $150 million dollars in eleven days, it broke the box-office record for Disney animated movies on opening weekend. If that’s any indication that we’ll be doing a sequel… I bet…
