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.
There really hasn’t been much press about the movie AVATAR outside of nerd websites, so let me give you the skinny. Basically there’s a guy in the future who gets crippled somehow and even after 1000’s of years, we still haven’t figured out how to heal a spinal cord injury so he decides to get his brain implanted in a test tube alien so he can go to an alien world with useable legs and hang around. He eventually falls in love with some tall blue cat-chick and then decides to fight against the invading humans who have robot suits and bumble bee looking helicopter things with yelling and dragons.
Thanks to the wonders of the internet, you can view the trailer for this thing for yourself. You may do so by clicking this link.
As trailers that don’t really tell you anything go, that was pretty good. I think whoever put it together was a little too up the landscape designers butt since they spent a good portion of the beginning just showing trees, space stations and floating rocks. I get it, it doesn’t take place on Earth…mission accomplished. The dragons fighting the jets looked good, I just hope there’s more to the movie than that.
I had not heard of the movie LEGION until I saw a poster for it at the theater when I saw G.I. JOE: THE WHATEVER and it was buns. You may judge for yourself:
I am sooooooo daaaaaaaaarrrkkk.
Well, one uninteresting poster just isn’t enough for this movie, oh no, they also have a new and extremely long trailer. It has some potty language in it so you’ll have to put in your birthday before viewing…or you could just put in anyone’s birthday really, that’ll work fine too.
I think I already saw this movie, it was called TALES FROM THE CRYPT: DEMON KNIGHT and it had Lowell from WINGS in it. It was pretty good, but also kind of silly. Maybe this “reimagining” will be better, but it sure doesn’t look like it. On top of that, they already showed me the best parts in the trailer, I already know that Dennis Quaid gets killed and if he’s not off-limits, surely the black-guy is in trouble. I’m also not too scared of demons that I can just shoot and kill. The thing that makes most demons (I assume, I haven’t met many) is that they can’t be killed by mortal weapons. How exactly would they dominate the world if we can just shoot them with guns and watch them fall over? Once you got passed the initial creepiness of a guy with longer-than-normal arms and realized “oh, I can just kill him with this “thunder stick” I bought at K-Mart” he just doesn’t seem as threatening anymore.
If you’re like the billions of other people in the world who love democracy, then (odds are) you also love ninjas. It’s totally cool, you can admit it; you’re among friends. It’s hard to figure out why ninjas are so awesome. Perhaps it’s the fact that they have that whole “mysterious” thing going for them or perhaps it’s because they get to wear pajamas 24/7 and I have to wear these itchy khakis that are always riding up. Regardless, to appease our ninja hunger comes the redundantly titled film NINJA ASSASSIN and the trailer from MTV. If you are allergic to throwing stars, you may not want to watch.
You may also enjoy this poster if you wish.
What do you mean we have to take another picture?! I do one take!
If I’m ever put into a kind of “Thunderdomesque” competition, I’m going to bungee jump for the “ice-pick on the end of a chain” last, but that’s just me. On the whole, I think I’m going to dig this movie, though I have some reservations about the apparent overuse of CG effects. I like CG effects when they make sense, but I just don’t see the need to digitally put an ice-pick on the end of a chain when you could just have a dude swing an ice-pick on the end of a chain.
I’m also a little weary about the story. From my exhaustive research (it involved finding the movies website and then going to that website) I learned that the movie starts out awesome enough with an orphan becoming a ninja and killing dudes. And then his friend is killed by his ninja buddies so he goes on the lamb from his ninja clan (rhyming). But that’s when the movie seems to start throwing crap up on the screen to see what sticks. There’s apparently some police lady who is investigating all the ninja assassinations and the ninjas don’t like that so they try to kill her and our good ninja conveniently saves her and together they take down the ninja clan. That just seems so tacked on to me. Why does our hero need more motivation beyond just “I want to get revenge for my friend?” Now his motivation is “I want to get revenge for my friend, save this stranger that I just met and take down the evil ninja group that I only found out was evil when they killed my friend but was cool with before that.” It just seems like an unnecessary subplot that was created to make the movie more marketable to female audiences which is a stupid idea when you name your movie NINJA ASSASSIN.
A new, four-minute trailer for TERMINATOR: SALVATION is now on the internet. The trailer in question is below this text.
I could tell the trailer was running out of steam at the end when they showed a clip of a terminator punching, followed by a cutaway shot of an unrelated explosion and then they showed another clip of a terminator punching, followed by a cutaway shot of another unrelated explosion, but otherwise it was pretty solid. I have no idea why they decided to reshoot the river-escape scene from SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION; perhaps they correctly realized that the original scene lacked huge amounts of mud.
