We’ll Have to Wait For, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

Thursday March 11, 2010

When it comes to waiting for release dates, I have absolutely no patience at all. Zero, none, not the slightest bit. So news this morning (via THR) that Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps is being pushed back from April 23rd to September 24th is just really depressing. Especially after the trailers looked so promising.

The reason is entirely down to economics. Release your film at the optimum time to make sure people see it and put you in with a better chance for awards the following year. The trouble is, it’s like being told you’re getting a great birthday present, but that your birthday is now being delayed to make you want it more.

I’m still really excited for this movie, but come on! Hurry it up!

Tron: Legacy – Official Teaser Trailer Finally Here

Wednesday March 10, 2010

At last Disney have released the first official trailer for Tron: Legacy. The highly anticipated sequel to their cult (but not very well known) 1982 classic, Tron.

It stars Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Michael Sheen and ‘recent owner of an Oscar’ – Jeff Bridges, reprising his role as Flynn.

So if you’ve not seen the original – and you really must before seeing this – it’s basic premise is… a guy is stuck in a videogame/computer and has to play the videogames to survive. That’s the basic premise, but there’s so much more to it than that. The visuals alone are worth watching the movie for. But I can’t really put my finger on what made the original work, it’s just one of those rainy day movies I watched during the school holidays and now love as an adult.

So anyway, the sequel is due out end of this year, and everyone’s hoping it will find a new generation to fall in love with it.

Watch it after the jump and let me know if you’re looking forward to it too?

The second Iron Man 2 trailer is now here. And if you had any doubts after the first trailer, then hopefully this will blow them away. It certainly did for me.
The first half of the trailer covers most of what we’ve already seen from the first trailer, but then we start to see the new [...]

Defendor: The Official Trailer

If you’ve seen the trailer for Kick-Ass by now, then you may think that the trailer you’re about to see is just a rip-off of that… It’s not. It shares the same theme as Kick-Ass – people in the real world that think they’re superheroes, but are actually just vigilantes – but has more of [...]
