HBO Louis C.K. Trailer

HBO Louis C.K. Trailer

Okay, so I have never seen Louis C.K. perform, I’ve never watched any of his stuff, and I barely know who he is. I looked him up on YouTube after seeing this, and I can’t recommend him because he uses way too much casual vulgarity and expletives for me (if you want to see a funny guy who doesn’t need to stoop to that, try Brian Regan), but I foudn this trailer so funny that I had to share. I love stuff like this, and it’s just good marketing.

‘Burt Wonderstone’ Promo

‘Burt Wonderstone’ Promo

This latest “trailer” is more a promo in disguise as an ad for a casino performance. I’m still not sure what I think of this film, or what I’m going to think of it. I don’t like 3 of the 4 lead actors, the three I don’t like being Steve Carell, Jim Carrey, and Steve Buscemi. Or rather, depending upon the context I can tolerate them (for instance, Get Smart starred Carell, but I enjoyed it, and The Island featured Steve Buscemi, not as a lead, but in a fairly prominent part, and I like that film a lot too, but these are exceptions to the rule). I do like Olivia Wilde in the few things I have…

‘After Earth’ Trailer 2

‘After Earth’ Trailer 2

It looks like we’re not going to have a dearth of Sci-Fi films this year. We’re going to see films like Oblivion, Star Trek Into Darkness, Pacific Rim, and Elysium. And of course, as the title of this entry indicates, After Earth. I’m still not quite sure what this film is going to be all about even after seeing the trailer, and what’s with the weird accent? Also, it’s a Shyamalan film so it will either be really good, or really bad (and if his recent films are an indication, we’ll go with really bad). But still, Will smith and son Jaden star so maybe it will be decent. I usually like Will…

Wallion - Wall-E/Oblivion Mash Up

Wallion - Wall-E/Oblivion Mash Up

Yeah, okay, I guess there might be some similarities here that I hadn’t thought of. But I think it’s far enough away from what Wall-E is actually about that it’s not a copy. Still, this is pretty funny stuff. And there are some pretty obvious leanings and hints at Wall-E here.

‘Much Ado About Nothing’ (Joss Whedon) Trailer

‘Much Ado About Nothing’ (Joss Whedon) Trailer

I’m not much of a Shakespeare guy, and I still have no idea what this film is about and I’m not even sure I want to see it. But my wife assures me that I am not allowed to say things like that and that she most assuredly wants to see this film. Plus, you know, it’s Joss Whedon so maybe I’ll give it a chance. Still, this trailer doesn’t make it look all that interesting to me.

I don’t have a lot of information about how wide the release will be, but it’s slated for a June 7 release by distributor Lionsgate.

New Trailer for ‘Epic’

New Trailer for ‘Epic’

Still don’t know if this will be any good, but my interest is picking up a bit. A lot of star power has been brought to bear here as well with voices from Amanda Seyfried, Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, Christoph Waltz, Beyoncé, Pitbull, Steven Tyler, Judah Friedlander, Aziz Ansari, and Blake Anderson.

The film is set to premiere on June 13.

EPIC is a 3D CG action-adventure comedy that reveals a hidden world unlike any other. From the creators of ICE AGE and RIO, EPIC tells the story of an ongoing battle deep in the forest between the forces of good who keep the natural world alive…

‘Revolution’ Mid-Season Premiere Promo

‘Revolution’ Mid-Season Premiere Promo

Watch the first minute from the mid-season premiere right now, along with a few comments from executive producer J.J. Abrams and creator Eric Kripke.

Warning, of course there may be some spoilers here, although I think everyone knew that the first minute of the mid-season premiere, picking up from were we left off in the cliffhanger mid-season finale, would work out pretty much this way. But it does leave us with yet another cliff hanger.

Anyway, I’m calling safe to watch, even if you are avoiding spoilers. But some people may not agree.

‘Epic’ Skippables (Promo Clips for ‘Epic’)

I haven’t said much about the upcoming film Epic yet. It’s an animated film about a teenage girl who finds herself transported by magic into a secret universe in which she must join forces with a rag-tag band of whimsical characters to save their world and ours. I’m skeptical but it may be fun.

Joss Whedon Teases about ‘Avengers 2’

Joss Whedon Teases about ‘Avengers 2’

Apparently, we’re going to be digging in to the characters, and there’s going to be spectacle, and Joss is really excited about the film… who knew, right?

But I am posting this for those of you who, like me, will eat it up anyway. Avengers 2 can’t get here soon enough in my book. What’s taking them so long anyway?

‘Hannibal’ Teaser with Mads Mikkelsen

‘Hannibal’ Teaser with Mads Mikkelsen

Hannibal is not really my thing. I watched a couple of the Anthony Hopkins installments, didn’t really like them. But I figured it was my duty to do so.

Now cometh a TV show about Hannibal Lecter. I’m not at all certain it is my duty to watch this one. But if Hannibal is your thing, feel free to go right ahead and watch it when it comes out.

Here’s the teaser trailer for the upcoming show staring Mads Mikkelsen (Casino Royale) as Lecter, as well as Laurence Fishburne, Gina Torres, Gillian Anderson, Eddie Izzard and Ellen Greene, with Caroline Dhavernas and Lance Henriksen.
