Trailer Trash: The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec

Chick 1 says:

Honestly, I haven’t seen that many Luc Besson films, but I love his quirky storytelling. The Fifth Element is one of my favorites. He’s got a new one coming out and it looks awesome! I can’t find a release date for the US yet but it’s already been released in some parts of Europe. I originally saw this without the subtitles & I still thought it looked cool. I must warn you there is some brief nudity. It is French afterall. But come on! A Victorian adventure with a kick ass heroine! Read more

Trailer Trash: Waking Sleeping Beauty

Chick 1 says:

This trailer is making the movie blog rounds & and the documentary itself is making the festival rounds & getting positive reviews. The movie covers the revival of Disney animation in the 80s & early 90s and features such young up & comers like Tim Burton & John Lassiter. It looks fascinating but I have no idea when this will be coming to a theater near me. You can watch the trailer by clicking here— Read more

Trailer Trash: The Toys Are Back in Town

Chick 1 says:

I loved both the Toy Story movies. When someone wants an example of a sequel that was better than the original, I point them to Toy Story 2. (Most cinephiles would say The Godfather 2 but I don’t like gangster movies.) But when I heard they were making a Toy Story 3, I was a little concerned. The fact that Tom Hanks & the rest of the cast were returning did relieve my fears a bit. Although he has made some minor missteps, Hanks has earned my trust. Our first look at this movie is out & I have to say, it made me laugh & it feels like the magic is back. I may have to put this on my I Can’t Wait list.

Trailer Trash: Heath Ledger’s Last Performance

Chick 1 says:

You probably already know that when Heath Ledger died tragically two years ago, he was in the middle of filming the Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. The creative team behind the film, led by director Terry Gilliam, came up with what I think was an inspired solution to losing their star. Apparently, the story involved Ledger’s character going through a mirror (a la Alice) three times. When Ledger died, he had completed filming almost all the scenes on one side of the mirror.

Trailer Trash: A Slew of New Ones

Chick 1 says:

First peeks at several new films I’ve been curious about. My reactions range from “meh” to “it might not be that bad”.

The Karate Kid: My feelings on this upcoming remake have been suspicious, especially the casting of Jackie Chan & Jaden Smith in the leads. I have to admit this trailer had a nice energy but I’m still not convinced it has the heart the original one had. Maybe I just still have a soft spot for Ralph Macchio. Read more
