Trailer Watch

I know, I know, I dropped the ball again. I can keep apologizing but the truth is life gets in the way of blogging. Anyhoo...

The trailer for The Expendables hit the net a while back, but give it a chance if you haven't watched it yet. Personally, I think that the trailers for A-Team are better, but with this case, you can bet I'll end up seeing this eventually. Probably when my roomie (who owns The Condemned in case you need a reference) buys it.

The more I see of Salt, the more curious I get. The first trailer made me think that if they ever make "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiago?" into a movie, Angelina Jolie was the perfect casting choice. This trailer makes this feel more like a solid film, although it seems to be trying a bit hard to sell itself as a sort of female Bourne.

I'll be honest. I love Liam Neeson. Generally, I like him in just about everything. I'm not to sure what I think about him in After. Life. He's creepy in this trailer, and I find it really disturbing. Still, promising looking trailer.

When I first heard about Splice, I was pretty darn excited. I remember seeing the concept art when it first hit the net. But now that the trailer's here, I'm pretty darn terrified. Still, this looks like one heck of a horror film.

In case you didn't know, there is another Resident Evil film coming up. Now, I personally thought that the last one was the best yet. I know a lot of people who will argue that with me, but hey, to each his own. Still, this is full of promising Jovovich butt kicking. Not too sure about this whole 3D thing though. I hate 3D. I wish this fad would die already.

Katie and I saw this trailer in theater in front of How to Train Your Dragon. We both had the same reaction - Beautiful visuals, but what the hell is it about?

Ok, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one I know who is excited about this, but come on, what's not to love?

I find myself oddly intrigued by the trailer for Malice in Wonderland. I like Maggie Grace. She was solid in Taken and appropriately unlikable in Lost. This could be interesting.

The cast alone makes me want to see The Other Guys. As a rule, I always support Samuel L Jackson in just about anything (he's from my hometown). The Rock? Yes. Marky Mark? Yes, but not sure about this haircut he's sporting. Ferrell? Yes. Count me in, boys.
