A few years ago, director Kathryn Bigelow was the talk of Hollywood with The Hurt Locker. Well, very much in the same vein of that film, word arose some months back that she would be working on an action-oriented story about the final days of Osama Bin Laden. Her film, titled Zero Dark Thirty is based on the true events surrounding the raid on his complex by the Navy SEAL Team 6. This teaser gives us even less info about the famous historical event but is worth a look. So feast your eyes on the cinematic beginning of the end for the al Qaeda leader. Directed by Oscar-winner Kathryn Bigelow (does…

Sweet Trailer(s)…007 Is Back In 'Skyfall'!
Oh boy, Bond is back and we can honestly say the wait has been far too long!! Since things about the projects have been hush hush until now, save for some snazzy still/set shots and a teaser that was all kinds of WOW, I can’t tell you how overjoyed we are to share the first full trailer for Bond 23, the mysteriously titled Skyfall…No more words, just watch!!! Not good enough for you? Then how about this “International” trailer which changes things up and offers something just a tad different… Daniel Craig is without a doubt one of the best (if not the most idealized) Bond and gives great new…

Ohhh, Look…Cloud Atlas Directors Attempt To Describe 'Cloud Atlas'
The Wachowski’s, Andy and Lana (formerly Larry) have sci-fi and action running through their veins. Two of their most high profile films show the inherent passion and lengths they go to when committing to a project. The Matrix trilogy was, in short, a benchmark in film history and a game changer to say the very least. Then came Speed Racer. While loved by some and loathed by others it still had merit and notable high points (like the race sequences) even if most people liken it to being hit by a rainbow with a mean right hook. But if there’s one thing the siblings have down pat, it’s spectacle. Anyway, for years the secretive…

Sweet Trailer…Taken 2
No not Tekken 2, but containing equal amounts of ass-whooping, this is Taken 2, the sequel to Pierre Morel’s surprise/smash 2008 hit. Liam Neeson is back and this time even more lethal and intense than before. Since rescuing his daughter in the first film it looks as if he’s also managed to wrangle his x-wife away from her new super-rich husband. I guess that’s another of his very particular set of skills; skills [he’s] have acquired over a very long career. Enough talk, behold the full domestic trailer for Taken 2. While the first film ended in such a way you’d think it was impossible to continue the story, like we’re about to…

Sweet 2nd Trailer…'The Campaign'
Election season is gearing up and what would the world be without some sort of cinematic parody of it? The latest from Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis find the two as rival political candidates with determination to do anything to win. It’s a short trailer but one that shows the hilarity to be had watching two of Hollywood’s premier funny men go at it. Give this a second and you’ll be hard pressed to find yourself not smiling by the end…unless you just don’t get Ferrell or Galifianakis that is. Anyway, enjoy this second trailer for The Campaign. The Campaign hits the road (well, theaters really) next month on August…

Sweet Trailer…'Drew: The Man Behind The Poster'
They say that sometimes, the best things in life are worth waiting for. We movie fans have become accustomed to waiting a decent amount of time, haven’t we? Well in the case of this production, it goes much deeper than waiting for a hyped film, prequel/sequel etc. to hit your local multiplex. This really is something special. A legend in film circles for his iconic and insanely well-received posters, Drew Struzan has done art work for some of the most famous films of all time. Loved the world over, his work is so instantly recognizable he’s essentially become a brand unto himself. The trailer below is for documentary about the…

Sweet (Teaser) Trailer…Disney's 'Oz: The Great and Powerful' – UPDATED
Disney looks to have quite the line up as their Wreck-It Ralph will hit theaters this November but next year we get an even more fantastical story with Sam Raimi’s Oz: The Great and Powerful. Raimi looks to trade web-shooters and campy horror for the Yellow Brick Road and wizards/witches. We got a stunningly gorgeous teaser poster last week and now, from Hall H of Comic-Con, comes this first look at the return to the mystical land of Oz in L. Frank Baum’s beloved story…enjoy! Oh, and make sure you take note of the sly transition from 4:3 to wide screen. From a screenplay by Mitchell Kapner and David Lindsay-Abaire Oz The Great and Powerfuldirected by Sam…

Sweet Teaser Trailer…'Jack Reacher'
Proof positive that like a good wine, Cruise gets better (and more bad-ass) with age. Behold the official first teaser trailer for Jack Reacher, the latest from writer/director Christopher McQuarrie (remember him?) and the one, the only Tom Cruise. Based on the Lee Child novel/crime series One Shot, Jack Reacher is a homicide investigator digs deeper into a case involving a trained military sniper who shot five random victims. Enjoy… Christopher McQuarrie (The Usual Suspects, The Way of the Gun) makes a pretty slick looking return to films as he both writes and directs this adaption from Child’s novel. Along for the wild ride is a pretty stellar A-list crew including…

Sweet Trailer…'Total Recall'
The final trailer for the Len Wiseman remake of Total Recall hit the web last night right as we were at a Press screening of The Amazing Spider-Man (review up real soon) so we’re just now getting to it…you’ve probably already seen it (and all the nods to the original) but here it is again. Still not sold on it, but maybe it’ll be more fun in the theater…enjoy! The new adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s short story “We Can Remember It for You Wholesale” takes cues from highly stylized big budgets sci-films as you’re bound to see bits of Blade Runner, The Fifth Element, Minority Report just to name…

Sweet UK Trailer…'Looper'
The marketing for Looper, the time-travel based action thriller from Rian Johnson (Brick, The Brother’s Bloom), has gone from a very cut and dry tumblr blog, to an intriguing shot of the awesome looking time machine to a full-on action packed trailer. Well, following suit comes this equally charged UK trailer…if you haven’t seen it yet, it’s really worth checking out. Enjoy! In the futuristic action thriller Looper, time travel will be invented – but it will be illegal and only available on the black market. When the mob wants to get rid of someone, they will send their target 30 years into the past, where a “looper” – a hired gun,…
