X-Men: Apocalypse official trailer

March 17, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

We’ve not been kept wanting for sneak peaks at Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Apocalypse and, to be honest, I thought we’d pretty much finished with the full length official trailer releases. I was wrong. The latest, official and two-and-half minutes fat, really spells out what’s going on. The god-like Apocalypse is on the way and the […]

March 25, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

Frustrated that most of the X-Men: Days of Future past trailers that hit the web yesterday were locked to geographic locations? Here in the UK we couldn’t watch most of the uploads. There is good news though – 20th Century Fox UK have an official copy. It shows a future in which geo-tarding of YouTube […]

February 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

That’s right folks. We have a trailer for X-Men: First Class. My first thought was whether they can save the franchise after a disappointing X-Men 3. My second thought was “What on Earth will they show?” I think it’s a pretty good trailer. We’ve Erik and Charles – who become known as Magneto and Professor […]

December 9, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fan favourite Peter Jackson has begun the casting drama for the forthcoming Hobbit film. Let’s give Ian McKellen the role of Gandalf (could anyone take it from him?).
