The last time we tried to present a trailer to you, dear reader, for Terry Gilliam's The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, the Hollywood powers that be decided it was unfit for public consumption. So, in case you missed it, let's try this again...... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the New Trailer for Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire
Lee Daniels' Precious is the critically acclaimed pet project of executive producers Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey. It is a personally significant film for both, providing a platform for Perry to open up about his experiences with an abusive father, and of course, Oprah long ago came forward about her childhood sexual abuse at the hands of a cousin. Indeed, this one's going to be a weeper.... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the New Where the Wild Things Are Trailer
For months, a teaser trailer was all that was available for the anticipated adaptation of one of the most popular children's books of the century. And if watching that initial teaser somehow wasn't enough to get you excited, watching this second, longer trailer for Spike Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are will make you begin to understand what all the hype has been about. James Gandolfini is especially good doing the voice of Max's "wild thing" pal Carol.... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the Trailer for John Krasinski's Brief Interviews with Hideous Men
Brief Interviews with Hideous Men has a ridiculous pedigree, what with the David Foster Wallace source material and a cast that includes Will Arnett, Julianne Nicholson, Timothy Hutton, Dominic Cooper, Bobby Cannavale and Will Forte. It’s also backed by indie superdistributor IFC Films and marks the directorial debut of winsome Office star John Krasinski. As we might expect, then, the movie’s first trailer is brisk and droll, easy to watch and easier to like.... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the Trailer for Jason Reitman's Up in the Air
The trailer for Up in the Air takes a risk, and, eh, it pulls it off pretty well. The third feature by Jason Reitman (Juno) comes from the novel by Walter Kirn about a corporate consultant who obsessively collects frequent-flier miles. Instead of trying to tackle that decidedly noncommercial premise, the trailer splices together gorgeous images, a voice-over of vaguely existential musings and fun-looking scenes with George Clooney.... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the Trailer for Retro Indie Horror Flick The House of the Devil
By way of Vulture, here is the trailer for The House of the Devil, an indie-horror flick that played with enthusiastic reviews at Tribeca earlier this year. Set in the 1980s with an old-school genre aesthetic to go with it, the movie follows a student who answers a babysitter-wanted ad and gets, well, more than she expects. It's supposed to be great. ... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the Cheerfully Incoherent Teaser Trailer for Christopher Nolan's Inception
Christopher Nolan has evidently returned to his roots with Inception, the first teaser for which premiered with some prints of Inglourious Basterds this weekend. The architect of some staggeringly high-concept movies (Memento, The Prestige and some little-known, hardly-watched flick called The Dark Knight), Nolan has kept the details of his latest mindscape under tight control and certainly doesn’t let up now. All we know is that the movie has a pretty amazing cast and Nolan has definitely seen The Matrix. This one-minute teaser is open to interpretation, but we’ll leave that to you:... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWill Youth In Revolt be the Movie Where Michael Cera Finally Sheds His Man-Boy Cocoon?
There's a stage in the metamorphosis of the butterfly called the "pupa" where the caterpillar nestles inside a hardened shell as it begins its transformation. Usually, the pupa stage lasts no longer than a month. Every now and then, though, we see curious cases of organisms bucking evolutionary trends. Take Michael Cera, who's been trapped in a man-boy cocoon of his own devising in the six years since he emerged as the endearingly awkward George Michael on Arrested Development.... read more
Found in: Movies, NewsWatch the The Wolfman Trailer
At this point, expectations for The Wolf Man run so low that the movie will have to be quite something to overcome them. Its beleaguered studio, Universal, has shifted the release date four (!) times. It’s directed by Joe Johnston, known for Jumanji and Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. Stars Benico Del Toro, Emily Blunt and Anthony Hopkins have basically gone the “It’s just entertainment” route in interviews.... read more
