Word on the street is that the first full trailer for Lincoln will hit the Web this Thursday. Until now we’ve only seen a poster and 2 shots of Daniel Day-Lewis as the titular POTUS (that’s President of the United States by the way) to show us what Spielberg has in store for us this Fall. To get us ready, we get this teaser (the first of three which drop today, Tuesday and Wednesday respectively) which quickly reveals DDL as Abe Lincoln. Unfortunately it’s not much to go on, nor is actually Lewis who is uttering the portion from the Gettysburg Address. Anyway, for those of you just jonesing to see Spielberg’s soon…

Sweet Trailer…Barry Levinson's 'The Bay'
Academy Award-Winning director Barry Levinson has some solid hits on his hands and while this may be new territory for him this looks like another solid win. More like a mash up of a handful of genres than a straight-forward fright fest, The Bay plays with found footage/viral horror, zombie-like ghouls, paranoia and more as well as setting the hysteria against a holiday not unlike Jaws. But like a buffet there’s enough going on to please most viewers. Suffice to say we’re sold, but have a look for yourselves… Always great to see an established filmmaker branch out and this looks sure to please. Those of you lucky enough to attend this…

Ohhh, Look…Reverent Salute To Director Tony Scott
No matter the time, place or cause, it seems that icons of the film world are always gone far too soon. With equal amounts of shock and sadness we we learned that maverick director and visionary Tony Scott was also taken from us. For decades he’s given us memorable films, truly one of a kind stories and a look that really was all his own. In the very touching video below, created by Nick Bosworth of JoBlo compiles this rather heartfelt tribute to Scott. So put on your aviators (to hide the tears) and enjoy this reverent trip down memory lane… “His death affected me deeply as I consider myself to be partly…

Sweet Trailer…'Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters'
While the Damon/Ledger film The Brothers Grimm didn’t fare well with audiences, these days there’s still a fairly large interest in fairy tales and magic; just ask one J.K. Rowling and the hit ABC show “Once Upon A Time”. Anyway, as many properties are finding success with a “dark” or “edgy” spin on things (thank Nolan for that) this looks to follow suit. With a look that recalls an almost Raimi level of campy horror element director Tommy Wirkola asks us to forget all we know about the two helpless kids following their own bread crumb trail…behold, the first trailer for Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters. My they grow up…

Sweet Trailer…'Men In Suits' Doc
For years the digital revolution has been creeping up and it’s not just the style of filmmaking that is going all 0s and 1s, it’s also the effects. While we could have debates over film vs digital and further, practical vs digital effects, we’re gonna save that for another time (or you could see the Keanu Reeves doc Side by Side if you want to get into the first argument). But today an avid movie fan wants to speak his voice and champion the practical movie monsters. Below is the trailer, a Kickstarer endeavor, about the people who made the effects/performances so iconic. No, not Stan Winston, Tom Savini, Rob Bottin et al, but the men…

Sweet Trailer…Robert Redford's ‘The Company You Keep’
Last month we posted the first promo images from Robert Redford‘s upcoming film The Company You Keep. Well hot off Lawless (check out our review here) Shia LaBeouf may continue to impress us as a capable thespian and not be the man-faced boy running from autonomous robots. In the film, Jim Grant (Redford) is a widowed single father and attorney living in Albany who was once a member of the activist/terrorist organization “the Weather Underground”. Wanted for robbery and the murder of a security guard, Jim has been in hiding for more than thirty years. When another former Weatherman (Susan Sarandon) turns herself in to the FBI, aggressive young journalist Ben Shepard…

Michael Keaton Takes Hugh Laurie's Role in 'Robocop' Remake
Right when Jose Padilha‘s all-star Robocop remake was looking like it was going to be the biggest thing ever, it hit some snags. One of which were some of the director’s ideas that raised some eyebrows. Beyond that, one of the initial hits taken in the pre-production was the loss of Hugh Laurie from the project. But fear not OCP fans, the project has got a new baddie on board and in an odd yet possibly better decision Jose Padilha got a hold of one Michael Keaton. A personal favorite of Go,See,Talk Keaton has consistently been an unlikely but winning hit for most of his films. From Batman to Beetlejuice to Clean and Sober to Pacific…
