I can’t wait for January to get here and the new season of LOST to begin. They’ve finally started to roll out some promotional material to bump up the excitement level. Here’s the first official trailer for LOST season 5. Are you ready?
This is an amazingly well edited mashup of Batman: The Dark Knight trailer with Pixar’s Toy Story property. Enjoy!
Brad Brevet at Rope of Silicon, a movie news website, had never seen the original Tron movie before. Hard to believe I know. But it provides him a unique (non-fanboy) perspective on TR2N, aka Tron 2.0, after watching the original for the first time. one… Read More »Speculation on Tron 2
The official site for Disney’s next hand drawn 2D animation film “The Princess and The Frog” is open and a teaser trailer is out in the wild, more than a year in advance. She is already growing on me.
Experts are predicting the 4th of July holiday weekend box office to be huge as families choose to stay close to home instead of taking the traditional road trip. The Will Smith superhero flick “Hancock” is predicted to do over $100 million for the holiday weekend. Pixar’s WALL-E looks likely to bring in $35 million. I plan to get out their and add my families $27 to the total.
Good stories about Pixar’s WALL-E continue to flow in. Remember that “I watch WALL-E” Youtube Video of the woman who cried while watching the the WALL-E trailer? Well the folks at Pixar saw that video too and were inspired by it. As thanks they sent a few gifts to her and invited her to the movie’s Wrap Party. How cool is that. She’s written up her experience on her blog. [ via Cinematical]
Remember that line from “The Incredibles” – “When everyone is special, no one is”. Columnist Paul Edwards sees elements of that same strong individualist message in WALL-E. Edwards takes an anti-liberal slant to his article, I think he might be confusing liberalism with lack of personal responsibility which can be found in every wash of life. There might be a few other facts wrong about the movie too.
Meanwhile, Christianity Today interviews Director Andrew Stanton about some of the religious themes in the movie. [ via CartoonBrew]
Cory Doctorow on BoingBoing humorously points out that WALL-E is a copyright criminal. Wait, wouldn’t the copyright have expired 700 years into the future? Maybe not if Disney gets its way in congress.
IO9, the sci-fi blog, has a long but somewhat pessimistic view of WALL-E in it’s review.
If you’re a fan of toys “Captain Toys” has reviewed a number of WALL-E Toys with more detail than you could possibly want.
Finally, Jason Kottke, whose opinion I find myself agreeing with alot, gave WALL-E a perfect 5.0 out of 5.0 rating.
Below the cut check out this great featurette on how close modern day robotics is to creating a real WALL-E.
Try not to get excited, but the BOLT trailer looks amazing!
A new trailer that harkens back the days when trailers were crafted to get you excited about movie, not just reveal huge plot points. Good stuff. Cute too.
This is more of an adult trailer with more of an emphasis on action and effects. For Prince Caspian to be a hit at the box office, it will need to attract more than just the ‘family film’ crowd. In fact, if I had a… Read More »New Prince Caspian Trailer
