Warner Bros. has released what is apparently going to be the final full length trailer for this summer's Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. This just keeps getting better and better.

The trailer speaks for itself having more spectacular shots of the Death Eaters' attack on London, some dueling between Harry and Draco Malfoy, more dueling between Harry and Snape, and just some all around great shots of what looks to be the most action-packed Potter film yet.

There's also plenty of room for teen angst and hormones as we get an inkling of romance between Harry and Ron Weasley's younger sister Ginny as well as some problematic tension between Hermione and Ron. I've heard some rumblings that there's a lot more of the relationship content film in this one than in the series past. I think we'll be fine as long as the film doesn't come off like a Judy Blume book. Seriously though, if J.K Rowling came out with Are You There God? It's Me, Harry Potter you know it would fly off the shelves.

Anyway, check out the trailer below and get excited when this film gets released two days earlier than previously announced on July 15. You guys think this could be the best Potter yet?

Earlier this week we played catch up with a trailer that looks like the sleeper comedy hit of the summer. Now we have a full length theatrical trailer for The Hangover that amps up the laughs even more. In case you missed our synopsis before here it is again: A Las Vegas-set comedy centered around three groomsmen who lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him. This will be the morning after that none of these guys will forget.

In this trailer we get a shot of the groom-to-be, Justin Bartha (who you may remember as the comic relief sidekick Riley Poole in the National Treasure films) and the lead-up to what will be one chaotic bachelor party. The groomsmen, Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis, trace their steps and get more than they bargained for as they find themselves in possession of a baby, a tiger, a police car, but not the groom. Zach Galifianakis is going to blow up after this movie, and I hope everyone gets a chance to discover his comedic genius. The film comes out on June 5, but until then, enjoy the trailer below.

Today, an international Red Band trailer for Sacha Baron Cohen's summer comedy Brüno. The picture above was coupled with the release of the trailer and you'll understand its significance after you check it out.

The trailer plays off of his now famous antics for 2006's Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan. While the trailer is funny, I was expecting a bit more. There's no doubt that this will be hilarious, but I was hoping that the first trailer would make a bit more of a splash. But there's some great moments, and if anything, this is simply like a teaser. I remember not being too thrilled when Borat was being advertised, but at the time I was also unfamiliar with Cohen and his characters. If anything I'm still happy because it seems like Brüno is a character who will not be so easily imitated by all of your stupid friends who ruin the movie for everyone else.

Anyway, check out the trailer below, but be wary, because it's Red Band and it's most assuredly NSFW at all. What do you think?

This post has been long overdue for a few weeks. This trailer came out of nowhere when I went to my midnight screening of Watchmen awhile back and I've been waiting for it ever since. I give you, The Hangover.

This looks like a great, chaotic comedy and may even be a sleeper hit of the summer. The film stars Ed Helms (NBC's The Office), Bradley Cooper (Wedding Crashers) and Zach Galifianakis (The Comedians of Comedy) as three groomsmen who lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him.

There's a mysterious baby, a missing tooth, and Mike Tyson air drumming to Phil Collins "In the Air Tonight." It's everything anyone could ask for. I've been wanting to see more of Galifianakis in films since seeing his stand-up a couple years back, and Ed Helms is always a good addition. Bradley Cooper is certainly making a name for himself, but it's hard to see him outside of his douchebag role in Wedding Crashers. It's an odd trio, and none of them are really big names, but that's what makes this even more interesting.

Anyway, this comedy looks like a blast, and I'm looking forward to seeing it when it comes out June 5. It's not everyday you get to see a trailer that depicts your future life. What do you guys think?

After we had the spectacular trailer premiere for Where the Wild Things Are, now comes a look at another film based on yet another beloved book from my childhood, the computer animated film Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

The premise is simple, wacky and allows for plenty of fun. A scientist trying to solve world hunger encounters a problem of global proportions in the town of Chewandswallow, after he invents a machine that causes food to rain from the sky.

The animation style is a bit different then what we're used to seeing, and while the trailer makes the film seem somewhat childish (I know it's based on a kids book, but it can still have quality content) there's a certain charm to it. Combined with the fact that there's sure to be plenty of gags with the different kinds of food falling from the sky (in 3D no less), this looks like a very promising family film.

On top of that the cast is what has my attention. Bill Hader puts to use his commanding voice talents as goofy scientist Flint Lockwood and plays along with the voices of Andy Samberg, Tracy Morgan, Anna Faris, James Caan and even the infamous Mr. T.

You can check out the trailer below, and the recently released poster for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs right here. What do you guys think?

Demetri Martin is currently known as a breath of fresh comedy with his brilliant use of drawings and wordplay in his stand-up, as well as channeling the late Mitch Hedburg in his quirky everyday observations on his Comedy Central show, Important Things with Demetri Martin. While he looks like a young and upcoming comedian in his early 20's, Martin is actually 36 years old. He's appeared on HBO's Flight of the Conchords and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and had a small part in The Rocker, but now he's taking to the big screen with the lead role in Ang Lee's new film Taking Woodstock.

This period comedy follows the story of Elliot Tiber, stuck working at his parents failing motel in the Catskills in the summer of 1969. But when he finds out that some sort of hippie gathering called Woodstock needs a place to go down, he gladly offers a helping hand to help bring some tourism to his family's failing business. Based on a true story and book of the same name by Elliot Tiber himself, Ang Lee's throwing a curveball here with a movie completely unlike anything he's done before.

The trailer has all sorts of great moments, many of them involving a cast of oddballs at Woodstock including Emile Hirsch, Eugene Levy and for some reason Liev Schreiber in drag. The film looks like a lot of fun, and I'm really looking forward to see what Ang Lee can do with some comedic, not-so-steamy subject matter. But of course it's Woodstock so there's bound to be some sex. Trailer is below and the film comes out August 14th of this year. What do you guys think?

We just shot up the poster today, and mentioned the trailer coming out this weekend, but lo ad behold, The Ellen Degeneres Show beat everyone to the punch, and they exclusively premiered the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are. But now we have the trailer for you online in all its glory.

The trailer really is mesmerizing, and contains only one line of dialogue, but this movie looks like it's going to be everything that it should be. Spike Jonze has always had a unique, though somewhat dreary filmmaker's eye, and this film is no exception. It'll be interesting to see how much the subject matter of the film appeals to kids and if it can live up to the hype that the status of book forces upon on it.

If you're unfamiliar with the story, it follows Max, a disobedient little boy sent to bed without his supper, creates his own world--a forest inhabited by ferocious wild creatures that crown Max as their ruler. The film features the voices of Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland), Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine), James Gandolfini (heard in the trailer), Catherine O'Hara (Home Alone, Best in Show) and Lauren Ambrose (Six Feet Under, Can't Hardly Wait). Making the trailer even more fantastic, is the use of The Arcade Fire's lyrically relevant song "Wake Up." I'm now ridiculously excited for this movie.

The last time I was excited for a movie with the words "wild things" it was because I had just hit puberty and Denise Richards and Neve Campbell kissing was oh, so intriguing to me. This will be a completely different experience I think, unless the movie goes spiraling out of control into a threesome with Matt Dillon and the aforementioned career-dead actresses.

Check out the trailer below. What do you think?

Yeah it's a pun, big whoop, wanna fight about it? Last weekend the theatrical trailer for Harold Ramis' prehistoric comedy Year One was seen with the release of I Love You, Man and what a surprise it's also on the internet.

If the Super Bowl teaser spot wasn't enough of an indicator of just how hilarious this comedy will be, then this trailer should do it for you. I've always loved the comedic take on historical times when they just have characters use contemporary speech. Jack Black and Michael Cera set out on what is being called "the very first road trip," where they are sure to encounter many nefarious characters and shenanigans abound. In the trailer, another glimpse of Cain (David Cross) and Abel (Paul Rudd) is seen (though not as hefty as the clip that was released back in January), and we also are introduced to the love interests for Cera and Black's characters, Juno Temple and Olivia Wilde respectively.

Hopefully, the movie doesn't disappoint and blow hard like the first poster released for Year One. A terribly photoshopped, Superbad rip off that looks like it's the cover for a straight-to-DVD feature, or a movie that Jack Black and Michael Cera did before they had real careers. Check out the hilarious trailer below.

Disney and Pixar have finally given us a trailer that provides us with an idea of the adventures to be had by Carl Fredricksen and Russell in this summer's Up. While the previous trailers have done a lot of set up of our two main characters and the house carrying-balloon vessel, this one introduces us to many of the dangers and sights to be seen, as well as a villain and a very entertaining dog.

In their adventures, Carl and Russell encounter exotic birds, some villainous old man in a huge blimp and finally...Dug the Doug. Dug is the first talking animal to interact with humans in any of Pixar's films thus far. Remy from Ratatouille only squeaked and gestured, the bugs from A Bug's Life never talked to people, and the monsters from Monsters, Inc. don't count simply because they are invented creatures. However, Dug doesn't talk in the way other Disney animals talk. His master invented some sort of collar that turns his thoughts into auditory communication. Dug is going to be a really fun addition to the crew, and once again Pixar is blowing all other animated features out of the water with their original stories, carefully crafted characters and remarkable animation.

The really disturbing thing about Dug the Dog though is the potential world people would live in if their dogs were able to communicate like humans. There would be weird sex happening for sure and I really hope Disney/Pixar tackles this sensitive issue. Wow, that's awkward. What do you guys think of Dug the Dog?

Last week, nearly everyone who caught Watchmen (which I have a review of coming up soon), was treated to a new trailer for J.J. Abrams franchise reboot of Star Trek. If the movie is anywhere near as good as the trailers are making it out to be, Star Trek will no longer be liked by the lonely and obsessed Tribble-loving fanboy and fangirl Trekkies. If this film hits as hard as it looks like it's going to, Star Trek will be mainstream cool.

Nearly everything Abrams has touched (Lost, Mission:Impossible 3, Cloverfield) has turned to solid gold success. There's no doubt in my mind that he's the next Spielberg. He's handling Star Trek with the love of a geek, but he's not isolating it from those who aren't familiar with the series. The cast is young, and even though he looks a bit too young, the more I see of Chris Pine as James T. Kirk, the more bad ass he seems. Zacahry Quinto (Heroes' only interesting character Sylar) already had my support for Spock, but I still want to see some more of Simon Pegg as Scotty. Within this trailer we get some great new action shots, and new footage of Eric Bana as alien villain Nero, and even House M.D.'s Jennifer Morrison as Kirk's mother.

I'm definitely pumped for Star Trek, but it's going to take some getting used to that Star Trek might be cool enough to get you laid by a girl who isn't dressed up as some sort of Vulcan dominatrix...or for that matter, any girl...period. Do you want to see Star Trek?

If Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is going to be half as good as the trailers have been letting on, then I may actually be able to forgive Warner Bros. for delaying it from last November to this July.

The trailer (released last week) lets us in on more of the story (though there are few who haven't read the Harry Potter series, there's no telling how story elements may change in the adaptations). The guiding light through this film is the past. And unless a memory from Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore reveals, the future may be doomed. This memory revolves around the mysterious boy Tom Riddle, who became the much feared Lord Voldemort. There are some really great visuals here, and the tone of this trailer loses any humor from the previous previews.

It's been great seeing this series devlopment from simple magic and whimsy to dark, ominous fantasy. Hearing Harry yell, "Fight back, you coward!" is a great moment, especially if you know who he's yelling at. The coolest addition to this film, and an element not found to be extremely prominent in the book is the scene in London, where Death Eaters are attacking Muggles. J.K. Rowling approved this modification to the story by screenwriter Steve Kloves to make the danger to Muggles, and the revelation of the wizarding world seem more immediate and threatening. It certainly will add a level of realism to the series, which up to this point has pretty much existed in its own world, with little reference to the non-magical world surrounding it. I can't wait to see it realized on screen. What do you guys think of the trailer?

20th Century Fox released what is apparently the final trailer for X-Men Origins: Wolverine in what might possible be the worst decision to market a big blockbuster such as this. The trailer debuted late last night over at USA Today with some new character pictures to accompany it. The video is pitifully small when embedded, and the full screen just makes the video look even worse. Luckily our friends over at Trailer Addict were able to snag it as well for us to enjoy in a bigger format.

While it's not perfect, this is the best trailer yet. Count me slightly anxious for this to be released but proceeding with caution. More footage of Gambit is always a plus, and a look at what appears to be a young Scott Summers (aka Cyclops) just discovering his optic blast capabilities. I'm still a huge critic of the Michael Bay level of explosions though. It borders on parody.

And I have a very weird bone to pick with some of the sound effects/design in this trailer (which I really hope are't the final effects to be used in the film). This is a strange nitpick, but it's only because I saw the movie I'm going to reference so many times as a kid that this just entered my mind. The sounds that are used when Gambit hits his staff into the ground and various other structures with kinetic energy is EXACTLY the same sound that the huge water splashes made when the sprinkler turns on in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. If you want to compare them, the clip for the sprinkler scene can be found here (the action starts at about 1:12 into the clip).

There's also just a lot of shots and action just taken directly from other films. The cut of Wolverine dragging his claws along that Hummer, causing it to flip over is just like the scene in The Matrix Reloaded when Morpheus slices his sword into the Twins Escalade (go to 4:31 in the clip). And the later shot of Wolverine landing on top of the helicopter is very reminiscent of an equally ridiculous scene in Live Free or Die Hard with John McClane jumping onto a jet. Granted this is a comic book movie, but this is a bit overkill in my estimate. It just feels like they're trying to hard.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine hits theaters on May 1st, and I pray that people don't think Wolverine is gay after Hugh Jackman's Oscar hosting last month. We already have a gay mutant and his name is Perez Hilton. What do you guys think of the new trailer?

Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel absolutely shine in the new trailer for the much buzzed Sundance hit 500 Days of Summer. The trailer further confirms my suspicions that this will be the next Garden State as far as an indie film getting some mainstream love. If Gordon-Levitt and Deschanel stay on top of their game, they will both be a couple of the best actors of our generation.

If you're unfamilar with 500 Days of Summer we ran the first trailer for it back in January right here and included it on our list of Sundance movies to look forward to. Here's the official plot synopsis just to refresh your memory: Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love. Girl doesn't. This post modern love story is never what we expect it to be -- it's thorny yet exhilarating, funny and sad, a twisted journey of highs and lows that doesn't quite go where we think it will. When Tom, a hapless greeting card copywriter and hopeless romantic, is blindsided after his girlfriend Summer dumps him, he shifts back and forth through various periods of their 500 days "together" to try to figure out where things went wrong. His reflections ultimately lead him to finally rediscover his true passions in life."

The film is said to have a hellacious soundtrack (just like Garden State) and does contain some musical-type numbers (rightly so considering much of the experience listed under director Marc Webb's short filmography on IMDB is in music videos). I'm really looking forward to seeing this when it sees wider release this summer, on July 17. Hopefully Marc Webb won't go the way of Zach Braff and direct one awesome feature (Garden State) and then simply go back to playing his character on Scrubs. Of course that should be easy since Marc Webb has never been on or even involved with Scrubs. But still...don't screw this up Webb! What do you guys think of the trailer?

Today saw the release of the new Terminator Salvation trailer from Yahoo! Movies and this just keeps looking better. While the first trailer highlighted much of the action and explosions, this one gives us some insight into the story that will unfold.

It's 2018 and Skynet is rounding up humans, and using their stem cells to help create more human-like cyborgs. This frightening prospect is made all the more pressing when John Connor (Christian Bale) and his team are made aware that a recently captured soldier, Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington), may not be who or even what he thinks he is. He's a Terminator. From IMDB, "Connor must decide whether Marcus has been sent from the future, or rescued from the past. As Skynet prepares its final onslaught, Connor and Marcus both embark on an odyssey that takes them into the heart of Skynet’s operations, where they uncover the terrible secret behind the possible annihilation of mankind."

This one is going to up the ante in pinning humans against the most agile looking Terminators we've seen yet. Obviously the effects change the capabilities of the iconic sliver clad cyborgs, and this is going to make for a much more intense battle. While I'm getting more excited about the film, I'm becoming internally conflicted about whether or not I'll be able to justify hating the epic fail force that is McG. Oh well, I guess if I ever really need to remember the hate, I could watch Charlie's Angels or just remember that HE CALLS HIMSELF McG!! Anyway check out the trailer below.

The first trailer for Judd Apatow's upcoming comedy set in the world of stand-up comics, the aptly named Funny People. Of course it's funny but the trailer really strikes an emotional chord too. Along with some great jokes coming from Seth Rogen and Adam Sandler there are some scenes that really pull at your heartstrings and I think this is going to be a real tearjerker. Apatow has a really great way of crafting comedy in the face of life-altering and potentially tragic situations, and this one just takes it to the next level. I can only assume his next comedy will be set during some sort of terrorist attack, and then no one will be able to stop him. Check out the trailer below.

The more I see of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the less excited I become. There I said it. The first trailer that came out a couple months ago was action-packed for sure, but it felt a bit over the top. Now with these three new one-minute promos that aired during Fox's prime-time schedule, I'm not exactly impressed.

One of the more worrisome elements is that a lot of the forced humor that turned Wolverine into a walking punchline in X-Men: The Last Stand stuck around, and that's a bit disheartening. Also, I don't know if I'm the only one still skeptical, but I haven't seen Liev Schreiber (Defiance) do anything that makes me like him as Sabretooth yet. Hugh Jackman has already done a bit of damage control on those reshoots in Vancouver, but unless something amazing comes out before May, then I might need some more reassurance.

So far the only things sustaining a decent amount of interest and dare I say excitement are:

• Hugh Jackman as Wolverine because he's just so damn good at it
  
  
• Gambit being in the movie at all. This was a character that deserved the full fledged X-Men treatment, and it's good to see him on screen.
  
  
• Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. Despite Blade Trinity falling flat on its face, I enjoyed Reynolds character and it'll be good to see him in something other than mediocre romantic comedies again.
  
  
• Dominic Monaghan as Beak. I just want to see how he plays in a comic book movie.
  
  
• Any potential cameos from other X-Men.

The trailer for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen that was attached to Friday the 13th this past weekend is now online. The trailer puts all the attention on the action and visuals and doesn't have any of the typical exciting orchestral hits. There's this sort of techno-tronic beat subtly running through it all with some semblance of music towards the end, very similar to the Super Bowl spot. This trailer contains everything from that 30 second spot and much much more. Can't wait to see more of this. We've embedded it below, or you can check it out in HD over at Yahoo Movies.

Remakes are held to such more scrutiny than original films. There are a lot of different views on remakes, re-boots, re-imaginings or whatever the hell you want to call them. If a it's a re-imagining of a successful film, then it damn well better do the original justice. If it's a reboot of a franchise then it has to be the complete opposite of what the original was attempting to do. And even if it's a remake of a film that isn't necessarily held to extremely high esteem, it's highly subject to default skepticism. Such is the case with The Taking of Pellham 123.

Now I have to admit, that I have not seen the original yet (it's in my ever growing Netflix queue), but I don't think that a remake of the 1974 film of the same name warrants any automatic backlash. First of all, I dare anybody to call any of the characters in the original film iconic or put the film in a Top 100 list. It's not happening. Personally, since the film is also an adaptation of a book by Morton Freedgood, it should be looked at just the same. How many different adaptations of the Lord of the Rings trilogy or the Chronicles of Narnia series have been made. That's an extreme example, but no one gets pissed about those. People have said that this is a remake that doesn't need to be made. It's not like they're remaking The Godfather.

Personally, I think the Tony Scott directed film looks like a great return of John Travolta to the action genre and pinning him up against the formidable force that is Denzel Washington. The trailer doesn't give too much away in the vein of plot other than that Travolta and a team of terrorists are holding the Pellham 123 train hostage for ransom, and Denzel, as the subway dispatcher and Trainsit Authority lieutenant has to negotiate. The intersting element that comes into play is where are these hostage takers going to go once they get their money (they're trapped in the subway tunnel system with nowhere to run). Trailer is embedded below for your thoughts.

A lot of people are really mad at George Lucas. They feel he has chipped away at the cinematic legacy he created not only with the Star Wars universe but in the adventures of Indiana Jones. Fanboys and fangirls alike have all argued back and forth about the endeavors of Lucasfilm Ltd and all the secret going-ons at Skywalker Ranch and their impact on each of their lives.

Now one film sets out to settle the debate, or at least hear both sides of the argument. The People vs George Lucas "delves into the impassioned feelings and opinions expressed by fans and foes of legendary screen icon George Lucas, and the many debates surrounding his legacy."

IMDB describes the film that, "will use a courtroom debate approach to explore the issues of filmmaking and fanaticism around one of the industry's most famous franchises and its creator. The innovative film combines filmmaker and celebrity interviews with fan films - submitted via the film's site - to make this the world's first digitally democratic feature documentary."

Hopefully this will actually take into account legitimate arguments and debate regarding George Lucas' career and also some really embarassing characters similar to those seen in the Trekkies documentary. My favorite comment in the trailer (embedded below) someone recounts about George, "He had a pile of scripts that he would show my but never let me read them. He would say these are the movies I'm gonna make. None of those movies have been made."

That reminds me a lot of what Spielberg said at the beginning of a behind the scenes documentary from the Indiana Jones DVD set about Temple of Doom, "When George and I were in Hawaii and I agree to direct Raiders [of the Lost Ark], George said that if I did wind up directing the first one that I would need to direct three of them. He said that he had three stories in mind. It turns out George did not have three stories in mind. We had to make up all the other subsequent stories."

Anyway this should be a pretty interesting documentary for anybody who was and is a fan of Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Check out the trailer for this upcoming documentary below.

"You haven't seen war until you've seen it through the eyes of Quentin Tarantino."

That about sums up the trailer for Quentin Tarantino's eagerly awaited war film Inglourious Basterds. And no that's not a typo. Plot synopsis: During World War II a group of Jewish-American soldiers known as "The Basterds" are chosen specifically to spread fear throughout the Third Reich by scalping and brutally killing Nazis. The Basterds soon cross paths with a French-Jewish teenage girl who runs a movie theater in Paris which is targeted by the soldiers."

The film stars Brad Pitt, in a role quite unlike any other he's played before, commanding a great cast of his soldiers (including B.J. Novak from The Office and Samm Levine from Freaks and Geeks) as they go on a warpath trying to take down the Nazi stronghold in Germany.

This trailer is as fun as hell, and I'm even more interested to see what role Mike Myers plays in the film. Check it out below.
