Pacific Rim - HD Trailer 2 + Commentary

Robots... check, Monsters... check, Action... check... Guillermo Del Toro's uber-creative mind... discount double check! 

(0:14) - Is that GLaDOS? Will there be a promise of cake after the credits?

(0:30) - Oh my! 30 seconds in and I only have 1 comment... this trailer is leaving me speechless. 

(0:34) Oh... they really were going fishing...

(0:45) Reminds me of Cloverfield.. that movie could have probably needed a bit of robots in it too.

(1:18) Pilots mind melding with machine... IS THIS AN EVANGELION MOVIE!!!! cause that would be awesome!

(1:47) Of course Ron Perlman is in a GDT movie

(1:57) Glad to see some multiculturalism. The movie was starting to look like those movies set in Asian cities, yet everyone is American.

(2:00) Cool beans.. A General Grievous type robot

(2:14) How is this not an Evangelion Movie?

(2:29) I think I need to watch this in IMAX 3D. July 12th

Further Comments:

The VFX look great, accompanied with the filter to make everything look not so ultra real. The robots are also not overly complicated with showing parts like in Transformers' totally unnecessary loose parts. The dialogue might be cheesy, but it's an action movie, so who are we kidding? We can at least expect better dialogue/story than Transformers. I hope it knows what it is and doesn't try to be something it is not. NO gratuitous female shots, NO blatant product placements, NO unnecessary potty humour, NO moms trying weed, NO attempts at being funny with inappropriately racist robots that really fell flat on it's own face, NO weird camera angles so that I can't see any of the action going on. Just give me robots beating up monsters, with some charm and a dash of something special and I am a happy follower. GDT, do us proud!

Thor: The Dark World - HD Trailer + Commentary

Thy eyes shall be smitten with a visual assaulting!
I'm gonna try to make this as much like BY's last Superman post. I'll start the breakdown but he'll probably do it better later today.

Play-by-Play Commentary (Now with special guest)
FR= Fiction is Real      BY=BY

FR- (0:00) Ominous thunder clap with city scape (queue birds flying away)
BY- (0:09) Birds flying across the street... is this film directed by John Woo?... (went to check director)... nevermind then.
FR- (0:12) Ominous sigh, followed by intense magic trick queue Levitating truck. Odin voice over of explaining the universe according to Norse Gods.
FR- (0:23) Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) is that you?
BY: Natalie Portman? I am sold... how soon can I preorder my ticket?
FR- (0:25) The first glimpse of our movie's villain.
FR- (0:29) The main villains epic bad ass ship. Followed by things exploding and people running in fear.
FR- (0:30) Standard Marvel Scroll opening and Music change to something less solemn and more racy with a synthesized bass track.
BY- (0.34) Ooo cool little thing they did with making the red of the Marvel Logo turn into a cape... I am obviously easily amused.
FR- (0:35) YAY finally after 30 seconds of intense stuff...reading this makes this seem even more long. None the less a new outfit thor seems to be wearing. Slightly shinier and more sleek boots.
BY- Things do look sleeker.. and the mood and filter looks darker... like every sequel tends to be. (oh wait, the sub-title is "Dark World.. so I guess it's obligated to be darker)
BY- (0:39) 2nd glimpse of Natalie Portman... seriously, how soon can I give my money?
BY- (0:48) Whoa whoa whoa! How does Thor now have to the power to travel between realms?... oh wait.. is bifrost fixed? BUT YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS... Natalie Portman in Asgard means more Natalie Portman (psst... I have a confession... I have an infatuation with Natalie Portman)
BY: For some reason, this scene makes me wish for a Marvel version of Super Smash Bros. Please let that be a possibility.
BY: (1:13) What is it with these comic book movies and Avatar? First Superman and now this?
BY- (1:40) So this is the 3rd film with Loki, and hopefully not as the villain, or else shame on him. If he were, he'd be the Wile-E-Coyote of the Marvel Universe.
BY- (1:43) The last line by Loki was "When do we start"... cue release date "November 2013". Clever Clever Marvel.

Final Comments:
BY- Looks like the tone is darker (hence The Dark World), and there will be more powered up Thor rather than civilian Thor, which is cool. This also looks like the movie will be mostly away from Earth, which is a nice welcome change which does nicely set up the future movies (ie. Guardians of the Galaxy). Good start but it was a very typical trailer and did not get me as pumped up as any of the Man of Steel trailer did.

Star Trek Into Darkness HD wallpaper 2 and HD Trailer 2

This summer looks like another. The second star trek movie hits theaters May 17, 2013. I've never been much of a Star Trek Fan but this is really making me interested. As with the first movie there looks like a well written script and acting for the movie. The action looks incredible and the visual effects and scenery look stunning. This looks equally balanced with awesome looking alien worlds and pretty epic space battles. This one looks like a definite watch in Imax 3D. Kirk will either rise to the occasion or fall hard as we see the enterprise actually shot down for once.

Star Wars + Avengers + X-Men = Crapping my pants awesome!

Today, NBC posted an outtake from Parks and Recreation with Patton Oswalt spitting out gold with his proposed plot for Star Wars: Episode VII. You would be crazy not to watch this all the way through.




So his plot involves a not-yet-dead Boba Fett, members of the original cast, Thanos, the Avengers (but not the 2nd tier superheros), and the X-Men. This could very well be possible since Disney now owns most of these franchises (X-cept for the movie rights to the X-Men). I wondered how this would all tie in until he mentioned the reality gem and I was SOLD!

Patton Oswalt...

Play-by-Play Trailer Commentary: Man of Steel

All your doubts and questions have been answered. It is here, it is now, the newest Man of Steel Trailer. 

(0:00) Explosions galore
(0:08) What is that flying thing? Is Krypton somehow related to Pandora from Avatar?
(0:08) I wish I had Russell Crowe as my dad, only based on his voice. He seems supportive.. but what-a-sec, he's sending his only son off, maybe not a good idea.
(0:30) Did we just get through 30 seconds without dramatic singing lady ala Gladiator or the 2nd Man of Steel trailer?
(0:55) More of the same scenes from the last trailer
(1:13) Why would Superman need to hitchhike when he can run or fly anywhere he wants?
(1:25) Superman has a beard, which brings up the age-old question, how the heck does Superman shave? Wouldn't his hair be impenetrable by common steel since he is the Man of Steel?
(1:48) There are sure quite a lot of cool looking close-up scenes and angles, especially for short scenes in a trailer, but not sure how well that will translate on film.
(2:06) I'm sure mobs of people will be flocking to the theaters to watch the movie from the director of 64% rottentomato rated Watchmen... oh wait.. what's that?.. 300 got 60%..  I am now outraged because 300 was awesome. At least they played it smart and had no mention of Sucker Punch.
(2:07) Begin montage of quick cut moments which I will have to watch-pause-rewatch-pause-rewatch and still find out nothing about the movie
(2:12) First viewing of Michael Shannon as General Zod... looks evil enough... check
(2:16) Now that is pedigree worth mentioning
(2:27) Maybe it is a good idea to cast a Superman actor who is actually buff... sorry Brandon Routh but you don't make the cut.
(2:37) You see, you don't need to cast a Superman actor that looks like Christopher Reeves, they'll look just fine as Superman... sorry Brandon Routh
(2:45) Yup looks like an 'S' to me
(2:48) Everything wrong with "Superman Returns" solved with one punch... heck yeah! (in reference to the lack of punches thrown in "Superman Returns". I'm pretty sure that just this trailer alone has more punches than the entirety of "Superman Returns. Yes I like to see punches.)
(2:51) Still looks like an 'S'
(2:56) June 14? See you there!
