Another trailer for the Lightning Thief

Liam — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:40:39 +0000

Yesterday we saw an international trailer for Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief, and now we have a new domestic one. It’s similar to the one we got yesterday but it’s longer, contains new footage, and we find out that Percy Jackson is the son of Poseidon and can control water. People who have read the book will have known that already, however having only just found out I think it’s pretty cool.

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief is directed by Chris Columbus and stars Logan Lerman, Sean Bean, Kevin McKidd, Uma Thurman and Rosario Dawson, and will be released next February.

International Percy Jackson & The Olympians trailer

We have a new international trailer for Percy Jackson & The Olympians The Lightning Thief, and it’s probably the best trailer released so far. Not only do we see more of Pierce Brosnan and Rosario Dawson, we get our first look at Uma Thurman as Medusa.

Percy Jackson & The Olympians will be released next February, and Clash of The Titans will be released in March. That means we will be getting two potentially cool movies based on Greek gods within 30 days of each other. Although, Percy Jackson has taken the mythology and given it a modern twist so there should be no conflict. I’m interested to see who plays the best Zeus though. Will it be Sean Bean or Liam Neeson?

Tina Fey and Steve Carell’s Date Night trailer

The trailer for Date Night, which stars Tina Fey and Steve Carell, is now online. The pair play a boring couple who are in need of some excitement, so they go on a date. Steve Carell becomes a little spontaneous and takes up a reservation that wasn’t his. Common then turns up and wants to kill them. How’s that for excitement?

We also see a few small appearances from Mark Wahlberg, James Franco and Mila Junis.

Date Night is directed by Shawn Levy (Night of the Museum) and will be released next April.

Kick-Ass trailer!

Liam — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 02:19:07 +0000

Apparently that trailer countdown timer on the films official site meant nothing as the trailer for Kick-Ass has found it’s way online early. As it’s the teaser trailer it doesn’t show too much, and those who saw the bootleg trailer from Comic Con may be underwhelmed. However, from what we do see it looks great, and quite funny. It’s gonna be a badass R-rated superhero comedy!

In the film Nicolas Cage plays Big Daddy, Christopher Mintz-Plasse is Red Mist, and Chloe Moretz plays Hit Girl, a 11 year-old assassin.

Family Guy: Something Something Something Dark Side trailer

Liam — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 02:01:31 +0000

Family Guy’s take on Star Wars with Blue Harvest was a hit in both ratings and DVD sales, so Fox decided to make a sequel entitled Family Guy: Something Something Something Dark Side which will parody Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. It was originally going to be the final episode of the 7th season, but they pushed it back to the 8th, and now a trailer has been released.

The episode will be released on DVD on December 22nd before it is aired on TV, and you can pre-order yours on Amazon here.

Clash of the Titans teaser trailer!

Liam — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 01:09:03 +0000

The first trailer for Clash of the Titans is now online! When I first saw it I wasn’t too sure on the music, however after watching it a few more times it grew on me. The footage itself looks amazing and I’m glad we’ve only got to wait till March to see this.

Clash of the Titans stars Sam Worthington as Perseus, a man born of a god and raised as a man who is helpless to save his family from Hades (Ralph Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing left to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can seize power from Zeus (Liam Neeson) and unleash hell on earth. Leading a daring band of warriors, Perseus sets off on a perilous journey deep into forbidden worlds. Battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, he will only survive if he can accept his power as a god, defy his fate and create his own destiny.

The film also stars Gemma Arterton, Mads Mikkelsen, and Danny Huston with Incredible Hulk director Louis Leterrier directing.

New Avatar trailer! This one’s for the kids!

Liam — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 23:37:08 +0000

From all the promotional material 20th Century Fox have been throwing at us recently I wouldn’t really expect to see kids in the audience when Avatar is finally released next month. The film will be over 2 and a half hour long, will feature a few scary beasts and battles, and it will have an environmental message behind it all. While it hasn’t been rated yet it’ll probably get a PG-13 rating in USA, however that won’t stop Fox marketing to the youngsters. They have toys and merchandise to sell.

The trailer below appeared on Cartoon Network recently, and instead of big aerial battles and missiles the kids get cute creatures, uplifting music, and a voice-over that makes you feel warm inside.

Would James Cameron approve?

New Avatar videos reveal new footage!

Liam — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:27:30 +0000

A few trailers, TV spots and tie-in commercials have appeared online recently for James Cameron’s Avatar and they are embedded for your viewing pleasure below. If you are satisfied with the trailers we have already seen and don’t want to be spoiled further with new footage then click elsewhere, as these videos have quite a lot of stuff we haven’t seen before.

First up is a Japanese trailer which is similar to the main trailer we got last week, although I’d say 30% is new footage:

Next is a short TV spot, which again shows a few new scenes we haven’t seen before.

Finally we have a commercial which advertises Avatar alongside Coke Zero. 20th Century Fox will probably have a new tie-ins with different products and companies considering the $250 million+ budget the movie had. Watch below:

Angelina Jolie’s Salt trailer now in English

Liam — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:14:02 +0000

Now it all makes sense. Angelina Jolie is being set up by some Russian guy. I’m just glad she replaced Tom Cruise in the lead role as seeing him say “someone’s set me up” again would have been tedious, as he was already set up before in Mission Impossible and Minority Report.

The trailer is just like the Russian trailer we got yesterday…just not in Russian. Enjoy!

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time trailer in rewind!

Liam — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 00:57:15 +0000

IGN teamed up with Prince of Persia game creator Jordan Mechner and together they dissect the new trailer for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, revealing some behind the scene info in the process. They rewind, pause, and slow-mo the trailer down to give us a better look at some of the stuff we have probably missed. They focus a lot of the dagger, and talk about what Jerry Bruckheimer and director Mike Newell have added to the movie which wasn’t in any of the games.
