TRAILER PARK: OH-MY-GOD! YUMMY TRAILERS FROM TRANSFORMERS-TERMINATOR-N-G.I.JOE

What a brilliant triptych of movie trailers I managed to lay my eyes on.

First, there was Transformers - Revenge of the Fallen. Not since the first The Matrix movie did my jaw drop so many times. The latest trailer shows us more -- and leaves us wanting more. All the transforming heroes return and the bad one is revived from under the ocean -- and drool-worthy new machines are introduced.

The story line appears suitably skewed towards action and what spectacular action it all looks set to be.

Then, I checked out the four-minute clip from Terminator Salvation. It is directed by McG who brought us the superb Charlie's Angels as a big screen adaptation (and brilliant re-interpretation) of the famous TV series. In his able hands, Terminator Salvation looks like it is going to be a riveting blast. The effects look spot on -- but more than that, the storyline (as sampled in the trailer) looks absolutely riveting. Man and machine and their gritty battles are going to grab everyone's imagination when this film opens.

Finally, I took a look at the G.I. Joe trailers and it looks like a solid-hit-in-the-making. The storyline and villain seem like predictable hash -- but the effects and stunts will leave fanboys delirious with excitement. The camera angles and choreography look amazing during action scenes

All together now: Hooray for Hollywood!
