CONAN THE BARBARIAN teaser trailer and poster
And the poster… “I live. I love. I slay…. I am content.” ? Not quite the “To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women” Conan of the 1980s, but what else are you going to see in mid-August. Conan the Barbarian, directed by Marcus Nispel and starring Jason Momoa, Rachel Nichols, Stephen Lang, Ron Perlman and Rose McGowan, opens on Aug. 19,...
Read MoreSXSW: BELLFLOWER teaser poster
Director Evan Glodell will premiere his directorial debut, Bellflower, at SXSW this week. And that car in the poster? If you’re lucky enough to be at SXSW, you can see it in person, flamethrowers and all. So what’s Bellflower about? Woodrow and Aiden spend all of their free time building Mad Max inspired flame-throwers and weapons of mass destruction in preparation for a global apocalypse in which their imaginary gang “Mother Medusa” can emerge on top. But when Woodrow meets a charismatic young woman and falls hard in love, he and Aiden quickly integrate into a new group of friends, setting off on a journey of betrayal, love, hate, infidelity, and extreme violence more devastating and fiery than any of their apocalyptic fantasies. Bellflower, directed by and starring Glodell, hits theaters on July 22,...
Read MoreNew THOR poster full of beardy goodness
You gotta hand it to Marvel’s marketing people. They can turn their B-listers into A-list sensations. (I’m not including The Incredible Hulk or Hulk, of course.) Behold they latest Thor poster from IGN, with a full on Chris Hemsworth beard shot. I assume the red hue is there to make him seem like angry god. Or a communist.

Kenneth Branagh...

Read MoreTyler Perry’s FOR COLORED GIRLS trailer and character posters
I’ll give Tyler Perry this: His trailers make me want to see his movies. I mean I really, really want them to be good. Sure, by time his movies are released, the Tomatometer is usually below 50 and I can’t justify seeing them. (I did watch The Family that Preys Together on an airplane, but I refused to pay for the earbuds.) Could For Colored Girls be different? Behold: Yahoo! Movies has the trailer for Perry’s adaptation of Ntozake Shange‘s play For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow Is Enuf. (You should watch the trailer if for no other reason than Loretta Divine’s sassy moment at around 0:40.) Do I have a rational reason to believe that For Colored Girls will be better than anything Perry has done in the past? Well, Lionsgate recently moved the release date from...
