Premium Rush

Gordon Levitt is one of my favorite actors out there so I’ll be seeing anything he does. This is kind of cool though. It’s not often Levitt is a lead in an action movie. I mean he was in Inception but clearly wasn’t the lead. It’s interesting to see how he’ll fair as a BMX type Bike Messenger who gets mixed up with the wrong package.
The Dark Knight Rises

I think we’ve talked about this movie enough on this site. Come on. Everyone is jacked up about this movie.
The Amazing Spider Man

My response to this trailer is “sure, why not?” I’ll be curious to see how they retell the story and shape it in a more gothic and dark nature. Nolan pulled it off with Batman. I don’t have the same confidence in this movie but it’s certainly worth a peek.
Enjoy the movies!
Where is your dexter review? must get my fix…
you want a dexter review? IT SUCKED.. happy now? the whole season sucked, the last episode was terrible and the last couple of minutes could have been an awsome cliffhanger, but they just made everything else so shitty it didn’t ever matter..
and stop waiting for other people to give a review so you can copy it word by word and tell it as your own.. watch it and create your own opinion..that’ll give you a fix..
I’m not sure about Spider-man. I like Garfield as Peter, but the origin story has just been done too many times. Everyone knows how he becomes Spider-man. They should just do a comic book type opening credits going over the spider bite scene, and start the film with him at least a few months into being Spider-man.
Extremely Loud and Incredibly close had a limited release in 2011, and so it should end up in this year’s Oscars, so it’s not really a 2012 movie. It’s pure Oscar bait and I hate Julia Roberts so I don’t know that I care to see it.
Sorry, make that ‘has’ a limited release. It’s coming out Christmas Day.
@Guy, I assume you mean you hate Sandra Bullock? Julia Roberts was in Hanks’ last film, Larry Crowne.
I love how that premium rush trailer makes delivery boys seem as damn important as astronauts…only futurama has ever managed to pull that off.
Still sad Ed Norton isn’t Bruce Banner…
re: The Avengers
The whole point of the team is for facing the threats no single hero can cope with. Most often this seems to be groups of super villains, alien invasions, invading armies. Things that are just logistically impossible for a single person (or god) to handle.
dammit… no edit button…
as to whether or not The Avengers will be good, that’s largely up to Joss Whedon. Unlike many of his most recent efforts, there is a large guaranteed audience for this movie, and his ability to handle ensemble casts is proven. His recent failures (if you wish to call them that) are due to the unique nature of his shows and their difficulty in finding an audience rather than issues of quality (I can’t really speak for Dollhouse as I haven’t gotten around to watching it yet).
Batman is the only one i am excited to see, Bane should be a little more modded up, thought Nolan is good at what he does i think he missed the true spirit of Bane, and why not Clayface?
As uncoolaideman said, rehash after rehash really kills it. i especially do not want to see peter parker as some little ankle biter with an overbite. Spiderman was pretty much dead after #3, i think its safe to say everyone lost interest.
Premium Rush seems like a Hitman archetype mixed with 2 scoops of Crank and a dash of Dave Mirra. NOT INTERESTED!
Project X, please. That was the least entertaining trailer i have seen since Plan 9: From Outer Space. Who wants to see a bunch of kids partying? Over used plot device 4 please?
American ______. I’ll be waiting for American Funeral so i can finally stop seeing that stupid font.
Meh to Avengers. Could go either way really.
Extremely long titled movie seems like PS I love you and Rin Tin Tin. No thanks.
I have every bit of faith in Joss, and Hawkeye does not have any super-powers. Just sayin’.
Also, what does “more modded up” mean, carlip?
Agreed with the Spider-Man origin being completely unnecessary. Six year old children know how Spider-Man came to be.
What, no MIB III? That one looks freaking awesome.
Someone explain to me why they re-did Spiderman. It’s not like the first movie didn’t tell the story. This looks idiotic to me. I LOVE the Spiderman movies. Tobey Mcquire, although maybe not perfect for the role, did a great job. He played the geek side well. If they want to f the first movie and redo it, then there better be more Spiderman sarcasm like in the comics. Then it might be worth it.
@ Amy
Haha. I’m curious, what about that trailer looked “freaking awesome”? The wipe your mind joke that they had already run into the ground 30 minutes into the first one? No, it must be Josh Brolin’s hilarious Tommy Lee Jones impression! Bleh. If there was one franchise that did not warrant a third film it was Men in Black.
might want to add The Hobbit becouse it looks awesome! http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/wb/thehobbit/
No G.I. Joe: Retaliation???
I second the Hobbit. It is such a long awaited movie, that the new trailer is a MUST on this list. Looks fantastic.
@Uncoolaidman
“the origin story has just been done too many times”
By too many times you mean “once”? Are you saying there shouldn’t ever be ANY Spider-Man movies?
@ Fatpie 42
I meant in general, not just the spider-man franchise. The origin of the superhero is a necessary chore for every series, and Spider-man already got theirs out of the way. But no, now we are going to be forced to watch it again.
“But no, now we are going to be forced to watch it again.”
No one is forcing you to do anything.
In Raimi’s movie he gets bitten by a genetically-modified spider during a school trip. This new movie isn’t going to do the same thing, so I’m interested to see what they do instead. Hopefully it (along with the rest of the movie) will be a little less goofy.
