I enjoyed the first book of the Avatar series and haven’t seen any more yet. Never got around to the movie simply due to being busy and all the negative reviews telling me it wasn’t worth the drama of trying to find some time for it. The show has clearly moved on. It looks like […]
Doctor Who trailers
This is probably the Comic-Con effect. I hear that the Doctor Who sessions have been packed to beyond bursting point. If that’s true then I imagine there’s been bursting. The BBC have released a number of trailers on a number of formats. The two below should cover all the clips off. There’s a big teaser […]
Knights of Badassdom trailer
This may well be one of the best trailers to come out of Comic-Con this year. We have the LARP movie – Knights of Badassdom. Names include Peter Dinklage, Summer Glau and Ryan Kwanten. I suspect this movie will have a degree of “laugh at the LARPer” to it but it will be mainly be […]
Holy Terror trailer
Holy Terror is a new line from Frank Miller. This graphic novel was announced back in 2006 and now, in 2011, it’s finally out via Legendary Comics. The original concept for this novel was called “Holy Terror, Batman!” and had the dark knight defending Gotham City from Al-Qaeda. Even Miller summarised the piece as propaganda. […]
Del Toro’s Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark gets a Comic-Con trailer
Del Toro makes superb movies and he’s been known to announce his projects at Comic-Con. Clearly a man with fine taste. He’s been working on Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark – frankly, the idea of not being afraid of a spooky movie with Del Toro at the helm is a silly idea – and […]
New Batman Live trailer
Batman Live seems to be dividing people – I don’t mean Mr live action Batman is ripping people in half – I mean people are divided on the concept and people are divided on the trailers. Pish or wow? We’ve had access to one trailer when we listed the UK Batman Live tour dates and […]
Guilty Crown trailer
This Guilty Crown trailer is worth watching for two reasons. It looks cool. That’s the first reason. The second reason is that, unless something’s changed, YouTube’s automatic translations via subtitles are live. Click on the CC button to activate. After the outbreak of a virus called “Lost Christmas” that swept through Tokyo in 2029 the […]
Sherlock Holmes 2: A Game of Shadows trailer
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 […]
The Secret of the Unicorn: two minutes of Tintin
I’m a little surprised that I’m writing this – but Tintin looks like it might be a good movie. I suppose neither Steven Spielberg, director, or Peter Jackson, producer, want to rubbish an adventure franchise that has been going strong for nearly 100 years. I’m also intrigued by the visuals. It’s an animation but not […]
The Lord of the Rings movie with War in the North trailer
This is why many people will give the LoTR RPG a go. This trailer for the game is a mashup with the Lord of the Rings movies along with War in the North gameplay. Two thumbs up to the skillful blending of the two. I think the official word to describe this trailer is “touchpoints” […]
