First Look: Sandler, Spade, and Rock are Grown Ups


Adam Sandler’s latest film, , marks yet another reunion (nearly paralleling the story itself) with SNL veterans David Spade, Chris Rock, Maya Rudolph, and Rob Schneider. Oh, and for some reason, Salma Hayek signed up for this gig, too.

In the movie, Sandler meets up with his high school friends (Spade, Rock, Schneider, and Kevin James) during a July 4th weekend, where they discover some interesting things about their families (Schneider is married to an extreme cougar, James’s four year-old kid is still breast-fed). The comedy opens in theaters on July 25, 2010.

First Look: 30 Days of Night Sequel

Kiele Sanchez as Stella Oleson

The first image from the 30 Days of Night sequel, Dark Days, is out and fails to make an impression on me.

Kiele Sanchez replaces Melissa George as our heroine, Stella Oleson, wielding a particularly large knife. While the movie may be a direct adaptation of its graphic novel origin, this photograph recalls the typical Friday the 13th cinematography.

A fan of the novel, I’m hoping that more images say otherwise. I’m still not buying Sanchez’s portrayal, either.

First Look: Angelina Jolie in Salt


In this new trailer for Salt, rocks heels, climbs walls and wields guns. In other words, it’s your typical day for the mother of six.

The film, which was originally set to star Tom Cruise, tells the story of a CIA agent who may or may not be a Russian spy. While the story reminds me a great deal of Kevin Costner’s No Way Out, the visuals are more in line with Jolie’s Wanted.

- also starring Liev Schreiber and Chiwetel Ejiofor - opens July 23.

First Look: Prince of Persia Trailer


When a movie combines The Mummy, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, it’s bound to be a hit. And in this case, also has a beefed up Jake Gyllenhaal and a Bond girl (Gemma Arteron) to boot.

So will this trailer get you in the doors? Doesn’t matter—I’m sure Disney’s already got a new theme park ride in the works.

Prince of Persia opens on May 28.

First Look: Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfriend in Dear John


Dear John -

While you were gone serving our country, I was busy filming this box office bomb called . Who knew a lesbian kiss with Megan Fox wouldn’t sell?

Anyway, I have a feeling our upcoming movie will do a thousand times better. I mean—who isn’t a sucker for Nicholas Sparks adaptations? And all women love a good cry around Valentine’s Day…especially when a hunk like you is involved.

So do your best to hurry home. Until then, I’ll continue sending you as many letters as a I can.

XOXO,
Savannah

- starring Amanda Seyfried and Channing Tatum - opens in theaters on February 5.

First Look: Nightmare on Elm Street Trailer Unveiled

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: New Line, Horror, Remakes, Casting, Trailers


Elm Street just got dangerous again. The re-made movie craze is still in full effect in Hollywood, because who wants to watch anything even remotely original? It’s much, much easier to just grab one of the dust-ridden scripts from the 80s and re-work it with a bunch of PR crap about how it’s all been re-packaged for a “new generation.” Because, apparently, the new generation has no idea how to get to the video rental store.

Anyway, here’s the trailer for the new Nightmare on Elm Street. It’s doubtful Johnny Depp will sign on to reprise his role and neither will Robert Englund. This time around, Freddy Krueger will be played by Oscar nominee (Little Children).

First Look: Trailer for Star-Studded Valentine’s Day


“Love is the only shocking act left on the planet.”

Throw a bunch of celebrities into a movie with interconnecting stories about romance and what do you get? Garry Marshall’s version of Love Actually.

In , Emma Roberts laughs at monogamy while her real-life aunt (Julia Roberts) laughs at Bradley Cooper’s admirers. Jessica Alba acts sad because she’s paired with a dog while the other Jessica (Biel) overacts because she’s paired with chocolates. Meanwhile, Ashton Kutcher is responsible for the flattest delivery in the whole trailer.

So am I planning to watch this American knockoff? Yes…because I’m a sucker for a love story. Valentine’s Day his theaters on February 12.

First Look: Clooney and Bridges Staring at Goats


Considering George Clooney‘s upcoming film, The Men Who Stare at Goats, centers around cloud-busting, flying, Jedi-trained psychic killers hired by the government, I’m shocked that I haven’t heard about this film sooner.

With Jeff Bridges, Ewan McGregor, Kevin Spacey, and J.K. Simmons rounding off the cast, I can’t say that I disagree with E! as they dub this movie the “Greatest Film Ever Made.” The goats drop when the eccentric comedy hits theaters November 6.

First Look: Trailer for The Descent: Part 2


In 2005’s The Descent, we learned two very important things about caves:

  1. They’re icky, dark and wet.
  2. They also house nasty humanoid creatures that like to feast on female spelunkers.

So why would anyone want to go in one…especially a cave where you know creatures exist? Well, it seems you can’t exactly just say your buds were killed—you have to prove it. (Because women are like crazy, you know?) That means another trip down for lone survivor Sarah (Shauna Macdonald) in The Descent: Part 2.

No US release date has yet been announced for the British sequel.
