Trailer Time: X-Men Origins:Wolverine, Star Trek, Public Enemies and 17 again

Category: , , , By Manu
Its time for the round up of new trailers..once again.

X-Men Origins:Wolverine
To start off the brand new trailer of X-Men Origins has hit the internet. I get the feeling that this one is going to be epic. There is also a flash of young Cyclops in there. Wonder how thats gonna turn out.

Plot: Wolverine lives a mutant life, seeks revenge against Victor Creed (who will later become Sabertooth) for the death of his girlfriend, and ultimately ends up going through the mutant Weapon X program.


Star Trek
A new trailer of Star Trek has been released. I've never been a Star Trek fan and as a matter opf fact I positively hated the only movie I've seen(Star Trek: Nemesis). But from the looks of this trailer I may like this one.

Plot: A chronicle of the early days of James T. Kirk and his fellow USS Enterprise crew members.



Public Enemies
Johnny Depp and Christian Bale- Do I need to say more? May be the director Michael Mann(The Heat, The Insider, The Last oh the Mohicans) ring a bell.

Plot: The Feds try to take down notorious American gangsters John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd during a booming crime wave in the 1930s.



17 again
A new trailer of 17 again is up at YouTube. This sounds pretty similar to "13 going on 30" but just the reverse. But from the trailer this can be entertaining. A good family entertainer I guess.

Plot: About a guy whose life didn't quite turn out how he wanted it to and wishes he could go back to high school and change it. He wakes up one day and is seventeen again and gets the chance to rewrite his life.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince - Trailer 4

Category: , , By Manu
The 4th trailer for the new Harry Potter movie has released and its awesome as always. The CGI work in the movie is amazing and the whole smoke thing is pretty innovative. I have read the book and this one has the potential to be an epic movie. Can't wait to see it in theaters. Releasing on July 17th 2009.

Trailer Time: Funny People, Chocolate and 12 Rounds

Category: , , , By Manu
Judd Apatow's Funny People
I think nobody needs an introduction to Judd Apatow. The guy who brought us Knocked Up, Pineapple Express and The 40 year old virgin comes a new movie with Seth Rogen and Adam Sandler as the lead actors.

Plot:George is a very successful stand up comedian who learns that he has an untreatable blood disorder and is given less than a year to live. Ira is a struggling up-and-coming stand up comedian who works at a deli and has yet to figure out his onstage persona. One night, these two perform at the same club and George takes notice of Ira. George hires Ira to be his semi-personal assistant as well as his friend.



Chocolate HD Trailer
I don't know if any of you have heard about Tony Jaa. I'm not really a martial arts kind of guy but this guy made me watch all his films even though they had like zero plot. The action of this guy is something else. No strings, no stunt doubles and 100 % real action. Chocolate is along the similar thread and by the same guy who made Ong Bak and Tom Yum Goong, but with a female lead. From the trailer this one also promises a load of action- Muay Thai style.

Plot: An autistic woman with powerful martial art skills looks to settle her ailing mother's debts by seeking out the ruthless gangs that owe her family money



12 Rounds HD Trailer
Have any of you seen "The Marine", the action film by John Cena. I laughed so much that I was on the floor watching that. Well, after that disaster John Cena is starring in another "action" movie 12 rounds. The only consolation is that the director of this movie is a pretty decent one who gave us Die Hard 2, and an array of mediocre films. Atleast this won't be as bad as The Marine. From the trailer the movie sounds like a mix of Die Hard action and Die Hard 3 style "chasing after the clues".

Plot: Detective Danny Baxter (Cena) discovers his girlfriend (Scott) has been kidnapped by a ex-con tied to Baxter's past, and he'll have to successfully complete 12 challenges in order to secure her safe release.

Trailer Time : Inglourious Basterds, Transformers 2, Crank 2, Planet 51

Category: , By Manu
Its time to take a look at the new trailers and feel the excitement.

Inglourious Basterds(aka Inglorious Bastards)
Quentin Tarantino is back. Now he tries his hands at WWII and make some Nazis go through violent death. This is going to be awesome.

Plot: In Nazi-occupied France 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.
Release:21 August 2009



Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Finally after the Super Bowl teaser a full length Trailer of Transformers 2 released and I should say it looks awesome. This is an epic movie with building smashing, robots fighting, and Megan Fox (gasp!!!). I'm sure to catch this in the theaters.

Plot: Decepticon forces return to Earth on a mission to take Sam Witwicky prisoner, after the young hero learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers. Joining the mission to protect humankind is Optimus Prime, who forms an alliance with international armies for a second epic battle
Release: 24 June 2009



Crank2: High Voltage
Exactly like I thought, Chev Chelios is indeed scraped off the road with a shovel and put into a car!!. This is going to be one crazy and wild movie-even crazier than Crank.

Plot:Chelios faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working.
Release: 17 April 2009



Planet 51
Another interesting animation movie came across my eyes- Planet 51. I havent heard anything about this movie, but liked it from the trailer. The animations is pretty decent, and its funny. The cast is also impressive with Dwayne Johnson, Sean William Scott and Jessica Biel.

Plot:The inhabitants of Planet 51 live in fear of alien invasion. Their paranoia is realized when an astronaut arrives from Earth. Befriended by a young resident, he has to avoid capture in order to recover his spaceship and try to return home.
Release: 20 November 2009

Superbowl Trailer Round up: Transformers 2, Pixar's UP, GI Joe,Race to the Witch Mountain, Star Trek, Monsters vs Aliens

Category: , , , , By Manu
Transformers:Revenge of the Fallen
A new very short teaser trailer aired yesterday and from the looks of it Transformers 2 will be one hell of an action packed movie with things getting blown up and destroyed right and left. Oh man!!!

Plot:Decepticon forces return to Earth on a mission to take Sam Witwicky prisoner, after the young hero learns the truth about the ancient origins of the Transformers. Joining the mission to protect humankind is Optimus Prime, who forms an alliance with international armies for a second epic battle.



Up
From the makers of Incredibles, Wall-E, Finding Nemo, Monsters.Inc and many more thoroughly enjoyable animation movies comes a new movie "Up" made exclusively by Pixar and distributed by Disney.

Plot:By tying thousands of balloon to his home, 78-year-old Carl Fredricksen sets out to fulfill his lifelong dream to see the wilds of South America. Right after lifting off, however, he learns he isn’t alone on his journey, since Russell, a wilderness explorer 70 years his junior, has inadvertently become a stowaway on the trip.



G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra
Just saw the sneak peek of G.I Joe:Rise of the Cobra and I'm stumped. I thought G.I Joe was gonna be one of those "shoot all you want with your guns" movies but I wasn't prepared for this. This looks awesome and I'm sure to catch this movie in the theater. I live in India and G.I Joe is not that popular here; may be that's why I'm unfamiliar with it.

Plot:An elite military unit comprised of special operatives known as G.I. Joe, operating out of The Pit, takes on an evil organization led by a notorious arms dealer.


Angels and Demons
I have posted a trailer of this movie earler, but this one has something more I guess. Anyways check it out.



Race to Witch Mountain
I've always been amazed at how well Dwayne Johnson or "Rock" as we all know him do comedy. Looks like Disney has adopted him for its "tough guy part" in their Family movies. This one looks interesting and funny and coming from Disney I'll probably love it.

Plot: A UFO expert enlists the help of a cabbie to protect two siblings with paranormal powers from the clutches of an organization that wants to use the kids for their nefarious plans.



Land of the Lost
The name Will Ferrel definitely scares me and approach this movie with caution. But from the trailer it looks pretty decent. But you know what they say-"Never judge a movie by the trailer".

Plot: Three adults inadvertently stumble into a mysterious land populated by dinosaurs and other creatures, including the mysterious and dangerous race of Sleestak.



Monsters vs Aliens
I have posted another trailer for this movie too over here. But this is a new one and I'm sure you all will enjoy.



Star Trek
Looks like a Star Trek movie I will finally love. The new trailer gives us much more of the much awaited Star Trek and teases us with incredible visual effects and action.

Plot:A chronicle of the early days of James T. Kirk and his fellow USS Enterprise crew members.

Trailer Time: Fast & Furious, Franklyn, Next Day Air, The Last House on the Left, Fighting and Pink Panther

Category: , , By Manu
A little look at the new trailers which are out in YouTube.

Fast & Furious Trailer#2

A new trailer for Fast and the Furious hit the YouTube couple of days back. The background music could have done better than Soulja Boy, but still the trailer looks cool. Check it out. Hitting the theaters on 3rd April 2009


Franklyn
The film is a split narrative set simultaneously in contemporary London and in a future metropolis ruled by religious fervor. It's the story of four lost souls, divided by two parallel worlds, on course for an explosive collision when a single bullet will decide all their fates. The plot and trailer looks awesomely interesting. The movie is gonna come out 20th February 2009 in UK and I'm sure to watch it.


Next Day Air
When a misguided UPS driver inadvertently delivers a package containing concealed bricks of cocaine to the wrong address, it sets in motion a desperate search and battle for the coke between the furious dealer that sent it, the fearful intended recipients that missed it, and the conniving accidental recipients that plan to flip it. Time is running out and everyone's trying to get their hands on the package that's been sent. Looks interestingly funny enough though reminds me a lot of Pineapple Express. Releasing 8th May 2009.


The Last House on the Left
Masters of horror Wes Craven and Sean Cunningham revisit their landmark film that launched Craven's directing career and influenced decades of horror films to follow: "The Last House on the Left." Bringing one of the most notorious thrillers of all time to a new generation, they produce the story that explores how far two ordinary people will go to exact revenge on the sociopaths who harmed their child.



Fighting
In New York City, a young counterfeiter (Tatum) is introduced to the world of underground street fighting by a seasoned scam artist (Howard), who becomes his manager on the bare-knuckling brawling circuit. Looks like another Never Back Down which I loved cause I love martial arts and fighting. So most probably I'll love this one too.


Pink Panther 2
Although the trailer has been long released I just thought I would mention it. The bumbling Inspector Jacques Clouseau returns in a brand new adventure and now teamed up with a squad of International detectives who are just as bumbling as he is. Their mission: Stop a globe-trotting thief who specializes in stealing historical artifacts. I loved the first Pink Panther and from the looks of the trailer will love this one too. The trailer is too funny.
"No, it only looks like a tape recorder. Its actually a pen". LOL .. Releasing on 6th February 2009.

Trailer Time: Possible Bad Movies : Dance Flick, Dragonball Evolution, Fired Up

Category: , , , By Manu
Dance Flick - Releasing on 14 August 2009
The plot is simple- A satirical jab at musical/dance films focusing on a naive girl who uses dance to achieve her dreams, and the street smart guy who helps her along the way.

As if we don't have enough really bad spoofs already, Wayans Brothers are back with another spoof Dance Flick. And to think anyone will give money to the guys who brought us Little Man and White Chicks to make a movie in the spoof genre which is already cluttered with garbage. I just hope its not as bad as some of the spoof movies that has been releasing lately.



Dragonball Evolution- Releasing on 8 April 2009
Plot-"Dragonball Evolution" is adapted from the manga created by Akira Toriyama; the work was also turned into a Japanese anime series that played all over the world. It tells the story of an alien sent to destroy Earth, who has a change of heart and decides to join the humans in their fight against various aliens and bad guys

I don't expect anyone except the fans of the manga will look forward to watching this one, especially after seeing the trailers. The cgi effects looks pretty decent but thats not a movie is all about is it. Cheezy acting, horrible lines and even the martial arts doesn't look convincing in some of the scenes. Lets just hope the die hard fans won't be disappointed with the movie rendering of the manga.



Fired up - Releasing on 20 February 2009
Plot- Shawn Colfax (Nicholas D'Agosto) and Nick Brady (Eric Christian Olsen), the stars of the Gerald R. Ford High School football team, are dreading the prospect of another summer at football camp. After Nick hatches a scheme for the two to join their schools cheerleaders at cheer camp instead, they find themselves awash in a sea of gorgeous young women. It all goes great until Shawn falls for Carly (Sarah Roemer), the beautiful head cheerleader who sees right through them.

Of the three movies listed here, this one is by far the most decent looking and have a high probability of turning out to be a "one time throw away" type of enjoyment. The plot looks interesting, some of the jokes got me chuckling, and the acting doesn't seem to be so bad. But at the same time looking at the debut writer and director this premise, that is in no way original, can well be rendered into a mess that many like to call comedy these days. We'll have to wait and see.

Trailer Time: Sci Fi - 9, Outlander, Push

Category: , , By Manu
Its time to review the latest trailers in sci-fi and keep or break our hopes for a bright future for cinema.

9 - Releasing on 9th September

Plot- The movie takes place in a future world where humans no longer exist. 9 is a ragdoll-like creature who must band together with others like him in order to save civilization from the machines that have taken over. The main character is voiced by Elijah Wood, with Crispin Glover, Jennifer Connelly, Martin Landau, Christopher Plummer, and John C. Reilly all contributing their vocal talents as well.

Shane Acker's '9' is adapted from his own Academy Award winning short animation film with the same title. When the whole animation world has turned towards kid-friendly cute and fuzzy films, its refreshingly endearing to find someone making use of CGI for something different. From the trailer it looks like an epic sci-fi adventure. 9 hits theatres on September 9th, 2009.



Outlander - Releases in the US on January 23rd, 2009. Playing currently in select countries.

Plot- As an age old battle rages amongst the stars, Kainan's ship burns brightly as it crashes into the Nordic coast. As his space craft comes to rest in the fjords of ancient Norway, it's with dismay that Kainan realizes that he wasn't the only survivor. A second passenger, a Moorwen also emerges from the wreckage. A Fierce and animal-like creature, the Moorwen is intent on causing harm to those it perceives have wronged it. As the Moorwen kills everything in its path, Kainan must work together with the Vikings to destroy the beast before it destroys them all.

The film has a sci-fi plot as well as an historical epic one. Those who have seen the movie are wondering why this film is a limited release. I'm gonna check this out as soon as possible. The Release dates are over at IMDB



Push - Releasing on 6th February

Plot - The action packed sci-fi thriller involves a group of young American ex-pats with telekinetic and clairvoyant abilities, hiding from a clandestine U.S. government agency. They must utilize their different talents and band together for a final job enabling them to escape the agency forever.

While the other two have a high probability of turning out great, this one has a high probability of being a flop. The plot sounds interestingly close to Jumper. There is an agency out to get our heroes, and in Jumper it was Samuel L Jackson and here its Djimon Hounsou( gimme a break). But the trailer looks interesting but they always do. Anyways can't judge it till the film is released. I guess we will have to wait and see.

X-Men Origins : Wolverine Trailer Released... and Hugh Jackman steals the show

Category: , , By Manu
I woke up today and what do I see first thing in the morning??.. That's right. The first look at the trailer of the much awaited movie "X-men Origins: Wolverine" is out. Man oh man am I excited. I can hardly sit straight in a seat now.

Wolverine is the classic bad boy of the X-Men. The hunk of the lot, and my favorite X-Men. All those who have seen even one of the past three X-Men films will have an idea on how great Wolverine is. And when I heard that I get to see the antics of Wolverine alone for a full movie I was damn excited.



Or watch in high quality (highly recommended)


Trailer Explained
The new trailer shows the movie to range from his childhood to manhood including his love interest, his military experience, his family, his roots- in short how he became Wolverine. The trailer shows us his fathers death, his time in World War 2, Vietnam, his love who is killed by Sabertooth, and how he eventually decides to enroll in the special program which changes him to what we now see as Wolverine. It is also interesting to see Silver Fox, who is shown to be Wolverine's love interest and more importantly dead in the earlier part of the trailer, appears once more in the trailer putting a fair degree of intrigue into the fans' minds which is further more aggravated by seeing her second death.

Soon he escapes from the military facility and the chase begins. The central conflict in the movie is shown to be between Wolverine and Victor Creed(Saber Tooth). Another main character in the movie is Gambit, who can charge an object with kinetic energy. A lot of high adrenalin combat scenes are shown which are sure to get us high on action. A glimpse of what might be Baby Storm is also seen in the trailer. The trailer ends with what might me a final stand off between Wolverine and Creed. "Do you even know how to kill me?" asks Creed. "I'm going to cut your head off, see if that works," replies Wolverine. May seems so far away now.

Talking about the movie Hugh Jackman says
"I can guarantee you there are going to be surprises. David Benioff, who wrote the script, is one of the great writers in Hollywood, and he is the biggest comic book fan in the history of the world. There is not an issue of Wolverine or X-Men that he doesn't own. When he first pitched me the idea, he had such a brilliant idea that was his little twist on events. He's written it smartly. He knows what the fans want."
I'm having high hopes for the movie.

New Terminator Salvation Trailer Looks Awesome

Category: , , By Manu
A brand new trailer for the new Terminator sequel has released a couple of days back.I have never been a fan of Arnold, personally I believe he can't act. But I loved the Terminator 2:Judgment Day nonetheless. So imagine taking away Arnold and putting the ever so talented Christian Bale in the lead role; it can only get better.

The film's plot sees Connor(Bale) heading the human resistance in the war against the machines in 2018, where he and his supporters are outnumbered and outgunned by the machine hordes and facing extinction. In the trailer John Connor and his troops are fighting, and losing, to SkyNet’s machines when amnesiac Marcus (Sam Worthington) comes into their lives. John Connor is shown to be having a face off with Marcus who may or may not be a Terminator.

Some high octane action sequences are shown to exist via the trailer. And considering the franchise and the scope of it, that is no surprise. Christian Bale is shown to have the same intensity as he played Batman in Dark Knight. No matter what he will do he is going to be compared to Dark Knight and he better live upto it. Some other characters that are introduced in the trailer as well.

The star of the trailer is no other than Christian Bale, upon whom the movie relies heavily for its marketing, and fresh off the phenomenal hit Dark Knight he might as well pull it off. The only question that remains is that "Will McG be a worthy successor to James Cameron?" . We shall wait and see. I, for one, will watch the movie solely cause of Christian Bale and the Terminator Franchise cause I've had bad experience with McG before(Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle).



The movie releases on 22 May 2009.

For other Upcoming movies that you should look out for see this.

Trailer Time - Romantic Comedies

Category: , , , By Manu
Its Trailer Time. Time for me to write about new movie trailers. Lets get started.

1.The Ugly Truth - A romantically challenged morning show producer (Heigl) is reluctantly embroiled in a series of outrageous tests by her chauvinistic correspondent (Butler) to prove his theories on relationships and help her find love. His clever ploys, however, lead to an unexpected result. After the adorable "27 Dresses" Katherine Heigl,one of my favourite actresses(Yeah, Grey's Anatomy is my guilty pleasure :D),returns with another romantic comedy. From the trailer it looks good.

2. He's Just Not That Into You - The Baltimore-set movie of interconnecting story arcs deals with the challenges of reading or misreading human behavior.

Upcoming Movies to look out for in 2009

Category: , , , , By Manu
1. Twilight (2008) - Release on November 21, 2008
"When you can live forever what do you live for?"
Twilight is a romantic-fantasy film directed by Catherine Hardwicke and based on the novel of the same name by Stephenie Meyer. The film stars Kristen Stewart as a teenage girl who falls in love with a vampire, played by Robert Pattinson. You would have seen Robert Pattinson in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as Cedric Diggory. For those of you looking to fill the void created by Harry Potter you may want to check this out, the book as well.


2. Transporter 3 (2008) - Release on November 26, 2008
"This time, the rules are the same. Except one"
Jason Statham is back in the third outing of 'The Transporter'. This time he's hired by a criminal mastermind to go on a mission to deliver a 'package'. With Frank Martin now electronically rigged, he must complete his mission or die! I loved the first Transporter. Second was OK too from the point of mindless action and unbelievable stunts. I think nobody except Daniel Craig portrays hand to hand combat with such power.


3. The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) - Release on December 12, 2008
"12.12.08 is the Day the Earth Stood Still "
"The Day the Earth Stood Still" is 20th Century Fox's contemporary reinvention of its 1951 classic. Keanu Reeves portrays Klaatu, an alien whose arrival on our planet triggers a global upheaval. As governments and scientists race to unravel the mystery behind the visitor's appearance, a woman (Jennifer Connelly) and her young stepson get caught up in his mission – and come to understand the ramifications of his being a self-described "friend to the Earth."


4. Watchmen (2009) - Release on March 9, 2009
"Justice is coming to all of us. No matter what we do"
Zack Snyder, the director of "300" is back with a new adaptation of Alan Moore's Graphic novel Watchmen. A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure, "Watchmen" is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the "Doomsday Clock" - which charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union - is permanently set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion - a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers - Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity...but who is watching the watchmen?


5. Monsters Vs Aliens (2009) - March 27, 2009
"We need a Hail Mary pass. We need raw power. We need … monsters."
From the creators of "Shrek", "Kung Fu Panda" and "Madagascar" comes a new animation movie. When space aliens invade America ("The only country UFOs ever seem to land in," says a TV reporter), the government unleashes an adorable band of CG monsters with celebrity voices — Reese Witherspoon is a giant woman, Will Arnett is some sort of sea monster, and Seth Rogen is B.O.B., a dim-witted blob. It worked for Pixar with Monsters, it may for Dreamworks.


6. X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) - Release on May 1, 2009
Who doesn't love Wolverine from The X-Men. For all those who couldn't get enough of Wolverine in the X-Men movies, here is a movie fully devoted to him. Its sure to be a hit. This is one of the films I look forward to the most. Leading up to the events of "X-Men," "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" tells the story of Wolverine's epically violent and romantic past, his complex relationship with Victor Creed(Sabertooth), and the ominous Weapon X program. Along the way, Wolverine encounters many mutants, both familiar and new, including surprise appearances by several legends of the X-Men universe. No trailer released yet :( . For now will have to satisfy with a couple of promotional images released.

7. Angels and Demons (2009) - Release on May 15, 2009
The team behind the global phenomenon "The Da Vinci Code" returns for the highly anticipated "Angels & Demons," based upon the bestselling novel by Dan Brown. Tom Hanks reprises his role as Harvard religious expert Robert Langdon, who once again finds that forces with ancient roots are willing to stop at nothing, even murder, to advance their goals. Ron Howard, double oscar winner and director of "Beautiful Mind" and "The Da Vinci Code" comes back to direct this prequel. The book is awesome. I daresay even better than Da Vinci Code. Didnt really like The Da Vinci Code cause so much were crammed into the movie, but i have a feeling things will be different this time around.


8. Terminator: Salvation (2009) - Release on May 22, 2009
"I knew it was coming. But this is not the future my mother warned me about. And in this future, I don't know if we can win this war."
In the highly anticipated new installment of "The Terminator" film franchise, set in post-apocalyptic 2018, John Connor, the man fated to lead the human resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators. But the future Connor was raised to believe in is altered in part by the appearance of Marcus Wright (Sam Worthington), a stranger whose last memory is of being on death row. 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. McG is directing this latest installment of the Terminator franchise. I have to admit that I am a little reserved about this movie cause one of the previous movies of Mcg is Charlies Angels: Full Throttle. :D .You all know how that went. But the plus point is that the seemingly tireless Christian Bale (Dark Knight), who appears to be in every major film I'm hearing these days, is reprising the matured John Connor. Another good thing is you dont have to sit through 2 hrs of horrible acting by our very own Action Hero who is not on this movie, hopefully(you never know).


9. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009) - Release on June 26
"Autobots.. Roll Out"
Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots return for the live-action follow up to Michael Bay's 2007 blockbuster "Transformers.Shia LeBouf and incredibly sexy Megan Fox returns to this sequel with Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and some new characters too. I was totally unaware of the already established Transformers franchise when i saw the first film. I totally loved that movie and will definitely watch this one. No trailer Released yet. Not even a picture to go by.

10. Fast and furious (2009) - Release on June 12, 2009
"New model, Original Parts"
Vin Diesel and Paul Walker reteam for the ultimate chapter of the franchise built on speed -- "Fast & Furious." Heading back to the streets where it all began, they rejoin Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster to blast muscle, tuner and exotic cars across Los Angeles and floor through the Mexican desert in the new high-octane action-thriller. I'm a big fan of the first and second movie(not so much the third). With the return of Vin Deisel I think this is gonna be one hell of a movie.


11. Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (2009) July 1, 2009
"The Coolest Event In 16000 Years"
The hilarious trio returns with Ellie and the ribcracking Scrat for a third installment of Ice Age. "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs," to be fully produced in 3-D, is the latest installment to the hit "Ice Age" franchise, which has grossed more than $1.2 billion around the world. The trailer shows Scrat trying for his acorn as usual. This is gonna be one of the most anticipated releases next year. Sid, Manny, Diego and Eliie are back for a brand new adventure.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince trailer

Category: , , , , By Manu
Before you start, i am about three months late in knowing this, but still its Harry Potter. I'm a big fan of both the book and movie franchise. Since the book got over been trying to fill its void, but to no use. I just came across this trailer and couldn't resist a post.


Half-Blood Prince in one of my favorites in the book series( Goblet of fire and Deathly Hallows being the other two). I think it would be great a great movie. Its a lot, lot darker than the previous books, and there is scope for some spectacular visual effects in the story too(as you can see in the Trailer). The video states that HBP will be released on 21st November 2008 but the date has been pushed back to 17th July 2009. Be at a theatre then. I know I'll be.
