BIG HERO 6 Trailer

Big Hero 6, from the same team of producers that brought us Frozen and Wreck-It Ralph, stars Ryan Potter as boy genius Hiro Hamada and his robot friend, Baymax (Scott Adsit). This trailer is one of the funniest I’ve seen in a while: While the trailer leaves a lot to the imagination as far as plot-line, Walt Disney Studios gives us a little teaser introducing what we’re in for.

BIRDMAN Trailer

There was an odd time in the late 1980’s where Michael Keaton was the biggest star in Hollywood. Since hanging up the Bat-suit in the early 1990’s, he has continued to have a successful career, yet will never reclaim that success he once had. In Birdman, the first foray into comedy from Amores Perros director Alejandro González Iñárritu, Keaton plays an actor whose life is overshadowed by the fact he once was a megastar due to playing a superhero decades earlier (sound familiar?

TUSK Trailer

What piques my interest for this upcoming film is the writer and director, Kevin Smith. I’ve seen Clerks II and Mallrats, as well as watching some episodes of Comic Book Men and an interview or two. I have to say, I like the guy.

The Imitation Game
THE IMITATION GAME Trailer

It may still be summer blockbuster season, but awards season is almost with us. Over the next few weeks we’ll have a flood of trailers for award baiting movies, and The Imitation Game ticks multiple boxes: a World War 2 period drama, a biopic, a Harvey Weinstein production and a chance for Benedict Cumberbatch to finally get some awards recognition.

THE INTERVIEW Trailer

Is it possible to give a film a bad review before anybody’s seen it? Apparently so, as the North Korean government have all but threatened war with the USA based on the trailer for The Interview. The new comedy re-teams James Franco and Seth Rogen, who co-directs with Evan Goldberg, as a hapless TV presenter and his producer who go to the “world’s most dangerous country” to interview Kim Jong-Un.

THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY – PART 1 Trailer

After a couple of talking head viral teasers, we finally get our first glimpse of the situation in Panem in the new trailer for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1. Based on the final installment of Suzanne Collins’s wildly popular series of Hunger Games novels, Mockingjay moves from the games arena to a full-on rebellion reluctantly led by Katniss Everdeen.

MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Trailer

NIGHTCRAWLER Teaser Trailer

It’s really amazing how some actors are willing to forgo a career full of surefire cash grabs and blockbusters for smaller, bolder roles. Actors like Ryan Gosling and Jake Gyllenhaal have done this and created some very interesting (though not always great) movies that stretch their abilities and require more thought than the many interchangeable popcorn flicks. Maybe it was the train wreck that was Prince of Persia:

These Final Hours
THESE FINAL HOURS Trailer

Imagine having only hours left until the end of the world and everyone you know and love is heading to the party to end all parties. Now imagine you inadvertently become the only hope for a child searching for her father. What would you do?
