And here it is, the trailer for the final two Harry Potter films. Thank you internet…thank you.
I’ve liked most of the HARRY POTTER‘s so I’m decently excited, and that trailer was pretty sweet. I think they were overselling it a bit, but hey, who can blame them; might as well milk it till the teat is sore. It did bother me a little bit when it says “Presented in 2 parts” like I’m supposed to be excited the studio has found a way to make me pay twice to see one movie.
I mentioned the other day that I hadn’t yet seen a trailer for the upcoming PREDATORS, well; my life is now complete and so can yours!
To be honest, I was expecting worse. The action looks pretty good and there’s some good gore sprinkled around in there. Though, the idea of Laurence Fishburne being the person “you don’t want to fuck with” seems a little disingenuous to me. Also, I’m a little disappointed in the fact that the movie-making people behind this movie went out of their way to make the setting of this movie be another planet, but then had it look exactly like a South American jungle. But then, they went with that whole “it’s not Earth because theirs crazy crap in the sky!” cliché that we’ve all seen a million times.
Who wants to make the Wizard of Oz reference?
Let’s hope for the best.
This one has been out for a while, but I wanted to post a copy of it here so that I can look at it every time I need to be reminded of how not to make a western. The trailer for JONAH HEX has burst upon the internet with Gatling guns and metal music. You may enjoy it below:
If you’re like me, you’re thinking to yourself “wow, that looks terrible.” There is just way to much crap going on in there. I mean, how would you explain who Jonah Hex is to someone after watching that trailer? Jonah Hex is a disfigured cowboy in the old west who has magical powers and is also a scientist able to create fantastic weaponry and attach it to his horse. Why not just have him be a tough guy with a gun? Why so much bullshit? This could have been a really simple and good movie, but the studio decided to go the other way and make it WILD WILD WEST. Ugh!
Boy, it sure has been a long time since I last heard anything regarding the fourth RESIDENT EVIL movie. And wasn’t I shocked and awed when I saw that the movie was actually filmed and someone spent time to put together a trailer. The trailer is below and terrible.
I enjoyed that instead of focusing on the things that make a good movie (ACTION, acting, ACTION, story, etc.) they instead chose to focus their advertising dollars on making sure we knew that it was filmed using some new kind of magic camera. They must have gotten that camera out of the bargain bin because those effects still looked crappy. This movie basically just seems like an excuse to throw a bunch of 3-D rocks and crap at the audience in slo-mo. If that’s your thing, I won’t judge…dummy.
In an effort to convince people that there is no better use of their hard-earned money than purchasing tickets to PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME, Disney has released a new trailer. This version doesn’t have enough back-flipping for me…your mileage may vary.
It looks pretty good for a video-game movie, but it will be terrible anyway. That’s just how it is.
For days now, the internet has been crying for; nay, demanding more video footage from the upcoming film titled KICK-ASS. And from upon high, descends the following R-rated trailer. Enjoy it if you are of age.
This is the third trailer/clip from this movie that I have posted which I feel is more than enough for any one movie, especially one that I’m not really looking forward too. So…yeah, that’s that.
I should be fair though; this was definitely the best trailer yet for this movie, especially the beginning. It wasn’t trying to be overly jokey and seemed to take itself at-least a little seriously, but (there’s always a “but”) then the second half kicks-in and it all falls apart. As soon as Hit-Girl appears, we’re assaulted with gimmicky and non-sensical action that tears down all my good feelings. Thanks a lot trailer, I didn’t want those good feelings anyway. I guess I’ll replace them with potato chips; like usual.
It’s “new trailer” time! Are you excited?! Because I sure as hell am! Woo! I love watching pictures move!
This latest offering designed to incite anticipation for a little known release is for THE LOSERS. It’s my understanding that it is based on a comic-book, but don’t get yourself all psyched up like I did; it doesn’t involve spandex. It’s more like THE A-TEAM but with a smaller budget. Fill your eyes!
I’m in a particularly good mood right now (ROCKY IV soundtrack always gets the blood flowing) so maybe this movie just caught me at the right time, but this actually looks pretty good. Perhaps it’s a little to jokey, but not everything has to be all serious all the time. We here at Action Pants do condone the use of humor sometimes if it is used to expand upon a characters awesomeness. The pants-dropping thing in the elevator was a little much, but everything else hit the right spots. Good job THE LOSERS, keep up the losing!
Because teasers just aren’t enough to satisfy the movie going public, here is a longer trailer for CLASH OF THE TITANS featuring a guy missing a piece of his skull and the Kraken and its unleashedness.
The more I see from this movie the more I’m interested. If they went with an orchestral score instead of the lame metal music, they would be in line for the award for best trailer of the year (a prestigious honor to be sure). A lot of the scenes in here we already saw, but I did enjoy the Kraken and the small glimpse of Medusa slithering along the ground. My favorite part of the trailer came after a bunch of action-clips showing scorpions and people jumping and stuff, and then the word “DAMN” pops up. I laughed a little bit because I thought the trailer was commenting on its own coolness. Like it was saying, “did you see all that crap happening and how fast it was occurring?! Damn I’m an awesome trailer!” But then it continued and I realized it was only part of a tagline. I was disappointed.
In ancient times, a video-game called PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME was created about a Persian prince who could stop time. And now comes the movie based on the game! You may rejoice and watch the trailer below, not necessarily in that order.
Being that this is a video-game adaptation, it will be awful. That’s not just me talking either, that’s 20 years of history talking too. Oh well, at least there’s a lot of jumping and things going “woosh!”
My goodness, has it really been 14 days since I last posted something?! That’s terrible! I deserve some kind of reprimand or something…and of course, by reprimand, I mean cookie. I like cookies.
Well, I have returned to thunderous apathy, but I don’t come alone, oh no. I have brought with me the THE EXPENDABLES trailer starring Sylvester Stallone and the rest of the world. You may enjoy it below.
After watching it, I know what you’re thinking because I had the same thoughts. Sure; this will be the greatest movie of all time and will probably reverse your hair loss, but will it bring about world peace? I’m no fortune teller, but I’m willing to believe.
