Right now, Marvel has the world’s attention — certainly, they have my attention as they are producing some of the best cinematic entertainment right now. Maybe to some this comes as a surprise that a comic book company and comic book stories could make such good cinema. I’m not surprised per se, although I am surprised that I myself am into it so much. I don’t really like comic books all that much, but the stories here are adapting themselves very well to the big screen.

I also have to say that Thor 2 looks like it will be far better than Thor was. Thor may have been my least favoriate of…

We’ve got a new SHIELD trailer here, and it’s looking good. Although I have to say that I’m not super impressed with that music, it’s dreadful. When analyzing and thinking about a Joss Whedon TV series, I always go back to Buffy, because a). that was his first, and b). it was arguably his best (and certainly his longest running show). So, going back to Buffy, yes there was times when he used pop music, or not scored music, but I don’t ever remember hating it. This music, I pretty much hate. But, this is a promo, and not the show, that song, that music may never be in the show and may not even…

Hey, this looks downright good! It’s from Downton Abbey director Brian Percival (Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore?). I don’t know much about Downton Abbey but I hear it’s good.

This is also from the studio behind Life of Pi which many liked, and which Eric Rauch and Michael Minkoff talked about on Movieology and seemed to like.

During WWII, a young girl is living with her foster parents outside Munich, and they must hide a Jewish refugee in their home. The film arrives in theaters on November 15^th. And another goody, it’s scored by none other than John Williams.

I don’t know, could be interesting, but first I’ll have to get over the fact that Selena Gomez is in it. She’s seems like nothing more than a teen idol up until this point and I admit that I’ve never actually seen her in anything. So maybe she’s good and I just don’t know it.

We’ll see because I’m willing to give this film a chance, even if it does look like it has elements of inspiration from ‘Taken’. The film hits theaters on August 30^th.

Just in time for the home video release! The question has to be asked, “Are we really sure we don’t want to put a colon in there?” Personally I never had any problem with the colons and I’m sure that this title needs one. But other than that, I felt like this trailer was a wee bit harsh on what I consider to be one of the better Star Trek films. Even so, I really enjoy these things, and this was no exception.

Not to completely spoil this for you, but I will just say that my favorite line is, “The Enterprise survives more hits than it took in the entire original series…” Pretty much. Enjoy!

Sex, drugs and violence. There’s going to be lots and lots of violence in this film methinks. And they’re definitely putting a little sex in this trailer, though if my past experience is any indication, virtually all of it is in the trailer (I hope that’s the case).

The film is written by Cormac McCarthy who penned No Country For Old Men for the Coen Brothers. And of course it is helmed by sometimes esteemed directory Ridley Scott who has directed a few hits here and there.

I’m still not sure what exactly to think of this film, but I am at least finally starting to get a feel for the…

Secrecy Sensei J.J. Abrams has dropped a teaser for… something… on the Bad Robot YouTube channel. Your guess is as good as mine as to what this teaser might actually be for. Some have speculated perhaps it has something to do with Star Wars: Episode VII, but I have to wonder what those people are smoking.

I’m going to go with something new that we haven’t heard about yet, but who knows for sure. The music sure sounds a bit Lost-ish. What do you guys think?

I thought for sure I had posted this trailer on the site already, but I can’t locate it. To rectify that, I have it embedded below. This actually looks like the sort of film I could get into if it’s done right. And certainly I think at this particular period of time in our world, the theme of every single thing being recorded, and privacy violations can resonate deeply, even if it’s not the main point or theme of the film. As an underlying story, as part of the whole, I think it will play into people’s feelings and paranoia.

And in any event it looks like there might be a good story to tell…

In a new interview, Mark Wahlberg says he’d like to take over the Iron Man franchise from Robert Downey Jr. He’s mostly kidding. The line is delivered in a semi-joking tone and he goes on to say he’s never really been asked to play a superhero. He prefers to play someone real and relatable.

No. Just, no.
