Official Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer

October 23, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are no strings on me. Since the cat was out of the bag Marvel wisely released the first teaser trailer for the next Avengers film. At this point nearly 6 million views have been recorded on the official release. The signs are there’s a lot of interest in this movie. What’s your gut feeling? […]

Iron Man 3 review

April 29, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There are a few surprises in Iron Man 3. There is always a risk with messing with expectations when it comes to comic book movies but Shane Black and the writing team make it work. I enjoyed Iron Man 3. It’s easily the strongest of the Iron Man sequels. The original retains the title of […]

UK trailer for Iron Man 3 is impressive

March 5, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

The UK trailer for Iron Man 3 gives a good idea of what the film will be like. We knew it would be a 70s style political thriller hiding in the skin of a superhero movie (at least according to Marvel) and that’s what this trailer seems to show. Hence the politics, the drama and […]

Steampunk Iron Man meets Sherlock Holmes

July 25, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Robert Downey Jr is both Sherlock Holmes and Iron Man. Over on Deviant Art, Daaakota succumbed to the urge to draw Sherlock Holmes meeting Iron Man, and I’m glad. With two characters from different times it was also the ideal chance to consider what a steampunk Iron Man might be like too.

Hulk stars in the 4th Avengers trailer

February 29, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

This is a two minute plus trailer for The Avengers. What’s rare about this trailer is that it doesn’t just feature Hulk but it’s got the Hulk in some pretty impressive scenes. I had thought, without spoilers, Black Widow’s tactic might have been to get the Hulk to chase her and then run in the […]

A Game of Shadows trailer

October 22, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I can be clear about this – I’m looking forward to Sherlock Holmes 2. We saw the heroic investigator in drag in the first trailer and I didn’t know what to make of it. I’m still not sure and we see that scene again for this second, much longer trailer. However; we also get to […]

How good is The Avengers trailer?

October 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s out. It’s out. I’m this excited – and it’s only the trailer. What are your first impressions? I like that we don’t see too much fighting. I suspect Iron Man will get a host of good lines. Loki’s clearly up to mischief. If Joss Whedon has a mega-hit with this… what does that mean […]

Sherlock Holmes 2: A Game of Shadows trailer

July 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A Game of… A Game of… I’ve already had my email from Amazon to say that A Game of Thrones’ A Dance with Dragons has shipped – but no book! Now I have a trailer to showcase A Game of Shadows is coming… but no film. I’ll have to wait for both. Gah! At least […]

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows – first two posters

July 10, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What we have here are Robert Downey Jr and Jude Law looking perfectly Holmes and Watson. The first movie was good for a whole number of reasons; one of which was the look and feel. Judging by these two posters A Game of Shadows is heading in that direction too. Sherlock Holmes 2 also includes […]

Olivia Wilde will be Ella Verity in Cowboys & Aliens

February 3, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Olivia Wilde – who plays 13 in House and who will be in the Tron Legancy movie – has landed the role as Ella Verity in Jon Favreau‘s Cowboys & Aliens film. This means Wilde will be staring alongside Daniel (James Bond) Craig who’s replacing Robert Downey, Jr. The news has been widely reported but […]
