Shall We Start the Morning With a New Batman Trailer?
Yes, we shall!
The latest, and I think last, trailer for The Dark Knight Rises hit the Internet today, and boy oh boy is it…underwhelming. I dunno, maybe it’s just me, but none of these trailers have filled me with any excitement. Or maybe it’s just my extreme excitement for The Avengers this week. The Dark Knight Rises looks cool, and I have no doubt that it’s probably going to be an amazing film, but I’m just not feeling it yet.
Am I the only one?
This trailer gives us more Catwoman than we’ve seen before, plus a larger look at Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s John Blake character. So hopefully you enjoy both of those. More Bane too! The movie comes out on July 18.
Avengers the Boy Band
There are so many good Avengers parody videos coming out this week. I have more than enough material to make the funny as we await the US release of the film. Those geniuses over at IGN created this hilarious Boy Band video, which is worth a watch. They also posted their review of the movie, and gave The Avengers a 9/10. So by all indications, all the reviews I’ve been reading, this movie is going to be as awesome as we’re all hoping. Don’t worry, that review is spoiler free. Go ahead and read.
And then watch their video!
Continuing My Pre-Avengers Coverage
Because when the Internet loves something, the creativity dial is turned up to 11. Here is another comedy/parody trailer made for the upcoming The Avengers movie. This one takes footage from all the old TV movies about the superheroes, splicing them together to make a 70s-era movie trailer. It’s just neatorific!
Might We Actually Get a Good G.I.Joe Movie?
I ask that having never seen the first G.I.Joe movie. But then seeing Marlon Wayans jumping around in a faux Iron Man suit just completely turned me off on that first movie. Plus Snake Eyes had lips on his mask. What the hell was that all about?
Anyway, they got a new director who seems to have a new, Joe-based focus. The first trailer was pretty cool, and this one ratchets the coolness factor up several degrees. Still feels like they’re needlessly shoving Bruce Willis into the film though. What do you guys think of the trailer for G.I.Joe: Retaliation?
New Brave Trailer Fills Me With a Little More Hope
I have not been blown away by the previews for the next Pixar film Brave. It looks a little too slapstick for my tastes, a little too zany. Plus all we’ve seen of the plot is the cliched story of a young girl in medieval times fighting against society’s expected role for her. But this trailer has a tiny bit more oomph to it, at least at the end. Nothing will win me over faster than a slow, melodic song filled with soul and destiny. But what do you guys think of Brave so far?
