Trailer for Pixar’s Coco

Wednesday, November 1st, 2017

Story about a Mexican boy? Meh.

He wants to be a singer? Double meh.

Set in a Day of the Dead afterlife populated by talking calaveras skeletons?

OK, now you have my attention.

Anyway, it comes out in a few weeks, and seemed like a good link for the Day of the Dead.

Sharknado 5: Global Swarming Trailer

It would be remiss of me not to share this…

Premiering on SyFy August 6.

Live Action Ghost in the Shell Trailer Drops

Monday, November 14th, 2016

I was pleasantly surprised to get to the end of the trailer and not automatically think “Boy, this is going to suck.”

It might still suck, but it looks like they’re making a good-faith effort to capture the postcyberpunk vibe at the heart of the franchise. Never mind that I’m a much bigger fan of GitS:SAC than I am of the original movies, and that the movie leans much more heavily on the latter. (“No Tachikomas for you!”)

Mood: Cautious optimism.

Star Wars Rogue One Trailer Meets Beastie Boys “Sabotage”

Saturday, August 20th, 2016

Really, what action film trailer isn’t improved by “Sabotage”?

I’m pretty sure the use of it in the Star Trek: Beyond trailer probably added a good $5-10 million to that film’s gross. But I suspect Disney doesn’t have the audacity to follow Star Trek and pony up money to make this an official trailer…

“You look like Freddy Kruger face-f*cked a topographical map of Utah”

And now I pretty much have to see Deadpool

Deadpool: The movie that touches you in totally inappropriate ways…”

The Force Awakens Trailer…In LEGO

Monday, December 1st, 2014

I assume you’ve already seen the teaser trailer for next year’s Star Wars movie.

Well, here’s the LEGO remake. I’m super-impressed with how quickly they put it together, and how amazingly close to the original it is.

Avengers: Age of Ultron Trailer Drops

Behold:

Is that mecha-Stark, or Ultron in Stark armor fighting Hulk?

I’m there.

For Elvis’ Birthday: The Trailer for Bubba Ho Tep

Today is the 79th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s birth. To celebrate, enjoy the trailer for Bubba Ho Tep. And if you haven’t seen Bubba Ho Tep yet, why not?

New Godzilla Trailer

Tuesday, December 10th, 2013

There’s a new Godzilla trailer out:

Points:

  • I’m a Godzilla fan from way back in my youth.
  • This is directed by Gareth Edwards, whose Monsters I loved.
  • It has a script by Frank Darabont, AKA “The Only Guy Who Can Make Great Films From Stephen King’s Novels.”
  • Holy shit does Zilla look big.
  • If you need something to fill the time between now and May 2014, may I suggest Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack? Despite the cheesy title, this is actually the best Godzilla film since the original Gojira
  • Mood: Cautious Optimism.

    Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark

    Friday, December 6th, 2013

    Thanks to the keen eye of SF Signal’s John DeNardo, we have word that the auteurs at The Asylum or offering their homage to Terror of MechaGodzilla: Mega Shark vs. Mecha Shark.

    It looks like pretty much everything we’ve come to expect from The Asylum…
