The first trailer for Batman: Year One has hit the interwebs. I’m a big fan of DC’s animation but this quick glimpse feels like it’s lacking the awesome of Frank Miller’s original tale. What do you think?
The first trailer has been released for director Brad Bird‘s (The Incredibles, Ratatouille) take on the Mission Impossible franchise. In Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and the IMF team find themselves blamed for a terrorist attack on the Kremlin. Now he and his team (Simon Pegg, Jeremy Renner, Paula Patton) must track down the real terrorists and prove their innocence. Josh Holloway, Léa Seydoux and Anil Kapoor also star. The mission, if you choose to accept it, will begin in theaters everywhere on December 16th.
It’s hard for me to wrap my brain around why everyone involved in a project like Immortals wouldn’t use all of their considerable influence to prevent anyone from seeing this. Ever. Wow, this looks mindbogglingly awful. Is Uwe Boll now directing movies under the name Tarsem Singh? It’s like 300, but not as stylish, or Troy but with more of a sci-fi/fantasy vibe. Oh, did I mention the main character has a laser bow. Did I miss a memo? Is it 1983 again? Henry Cavill, Mickey Rourke, Kellan Lutz, John Hurt, Stephen Dorff, Isabel Lucas, and Freida Pinto also star. You can start fearing for your sanity when the film hits theaters on 11/11/11 (oh, isn’t that clever?).
From writer/director Miguel Ángel Vivas comes this tale of a family held hostage in their own home by three Eastern European criminals (Guillermo Barrientos, Dritan Biba, Martijn Kuiper). Fernando Cayo, Manuela Vellés, Ana Wagener, Xoel Yáñez. Kidnapped will get its first US screening in September at the Austin Fantastic Fest.
The first poster for Pixar writer/director Andrew Stanton‘s John Carter, based on Edgar Rice Burroughs character who finds himself miraculously transported to Mars, has been released. What do you think?
