YUM... What can I say except YUM! indeed after watching a collection of movie trailers for upcoming movies. These trailers have appeared thanks to the American Super Bowl -- that annual mother of all American games -- when the best commercials and movie trailers are shown. We in this neck of the third world woods (which is being fast burnt down by illegal logging!) get to see this trailers thanks to the wonders of the Internet, of course.
Here's a quick verdict of the new movies....
STAR TREK.... This J.J. Abrams vehicle looks promising. The trailer is speed edited to look sumptuous -- the effects looks good, all the actors and actresses are hotties and the cinematography looks inspired. Can't wait for this to open!
G.I. JOE... Inspired by toys, this super-slick actioner looks like it has enough jaw-dropping moments to keep action lovers drooling in delight in the cinemas. Yes, we want our action fast 'n' furious -- and PUHLEASEEEEE spare us all the melodramas and just give us the goddam firepower and stunts to keep us happy! Oh, the scriptwriters and director obviously heard us, by the looks of things! Yay!!!!!
FAST AND FURIOUS... The new chapter with Vin Diesel back in the driver's seat is looking sizzling hot. Again, it is all about stunts, stunts and stunts (forget about that LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION drivel!). The trailer simply says, just sit back, fasten the seat belts and rev the engines boys! (and girls)
LAND OF THE LOST... That Will Ferrell is possibly the funniest man in movies (after Adam Sandler, of course!). Will Ferrell plays the most delicious overgrown immature types so well -- and he is no different here. He looks like he is a mentally stunted and slightly imbecilic scientist in this new sci-fi special effects movie and his over-the-top antics look set to bring out the laughter! The trailers has aliens, giant crabs and dinosaurs aplenty and excellent cinematography. The comedic timing also looks spot on. Bring it on Will Ferrell!
TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN... Good grief -- the trailer is so awesome that all you can do is sit and watch and hit the replay button over and over again. The trailer is so good you can eat it! More of the evil Transformers crash land (onto the mighty ocean faring carriers, no less!) on planet Earth to save their leader and the good robots look like they really do have their hands full this time around! That Shia LaBeouf looks all primed to carry this film -- and him being such a likable lad, this movie would do well on his very own drawing power alone! And if you add those majestic robots -- there's no way this Michael Bay film can do any wrong!
