The first trailer for Gravity has been posted, and it jumps right in. It stars George Clooney and Sandra Bullock as astronauts in trouble, and should be hitting theaters in October. Thanks to SFX for the heads up on this one.
Star Trek Into Darkness is the obvious winner this week! I have been watching trailers since last year, so I am more than ready to see this one. And as much as I loved the initial J.J. Abrams reboot of the franchise, with this one we will learn if it suffers from the original even/odd rule where only every other Trek movie was good. Keeping my fingers crossed!
The final entry in the trilogy that started with Shawn Of The Dead and continued through Hot Fuzz is on its way, and here is the wonderfully funny trailer for The Worlds End.
The first trailer for Ender’s Game is finally out, and it looks like they stayed quite close to the book. Of course, it has been years since Orson Scott Card signed the contract to give them the rights to make it, so one would hope they had used that time well. This one should be hitting the big screen around November 1st, 2013.
No genre this time except for the no-budget REDD, and it might look like the mainstream The Great Gatsby is all that’s out there. But don’t overlook Desperate Acts of Magic, a tasty little indie comedy film that is out this week in limited release; if you can find it, it looks quite fun. And if you are a documentary fan, also in very limited release is My Other Me, a film about cosplayers.
Not just any Pacific Rim trailer, this is the one they showed at Wondercon. It has to be Guillermo del Toro’s tribute to Japanese movies and anime, and I am very ready to see it. It will hit the big screen on July 12th, and has a great little viral site.
