The trailers Chronicles of Narnia

Thor
Marvel is putting out its second big Avengers character's movies Thor, or The Mighty Thor if I want to tie it in to the comic. Now I can't give the trailer full props NOR can I ridicule it because THE THEATER had issues playing it. The basic Synopsis I get from the trailer:

Thor Norse God of Thunder the Odinson in his arrogance has peeved off his dad. In punishment for his transgression Odin takes his mighty hammer(Mjolnir), his Godly Mantle and sends him to Midgard(earth he said earth when someone talked to him so this may be Norse mythology lite). On earth the god of thunder tries to make his way while some major catastrophe is afoot caused by whatever mistake Thor made.
The shield agent from Iron Man is here so it seems to tie in to the finding of the Hammer after the credits in Iron Man 2. As far as "storyline" is concerned it seems to be meshing Ultimate and Regular. In Ultimate Thor is Thor has his powers some weird hyper scientific looking armor and a slightly futuristic looking hammer, Normal Marvel U he's got his enchanted stone looking hammer odd looking armor and a strange way of speaking.

They also seem to be using the


Whosoever holds this hammer,if he be worthy, shall possess the power of.....THOR
Mythos. Because in one trailer I saw the recently disgraced Odinson finds his mighty hammer and is unable to lift it. Yeah not anybody can lift Mjolnir pretty much gotta be of stout character and noble heart. I'll do a blog about Thor later though.

Gulliver's Travels

Jack black as gulliver a mail boy who wants to be a journalist is giving a story, lost in a storm, and washes up in the land of the lilliputians. An update of the story as there are hydraulic creatures use, jack black has a cellphone(droid or iphone for those who wana know). Gulliver is a rather short guy who tells tall tales to the lilliputians about his great life back home, promises to be their protector, is exposed as a braggart and then has to not only prove to himself the kind of man he can be but also redeem himself in the eyes of his minature hosts.

Looks like it could be a funny romp, but we shall see.

Rio

Another animated cartoon story about repopulating a species. Similar to Alpha and Omega. This time it is a story about two Macau, the last of their breed. The male is from america the female is in Rio. The female appears to either be wild or else in a preserve. The male is domesticated, living the good life.

Looks like there is a lot of high profile comedy voice talent. Thing is though, meh its kinda becoming rote here. The best of the breed and you know the mid to bottom of the barrel have to save the species. I mean a bird who can't fly isn't that like stretching it too damn far?

Oh well kids movie, not going to see it I'll wait til it hits cable. Plenty of funny actors but nah not feelin it.

Okay ready to bed this one, I'll add in the links and post it in a little while

By the way for those who noticed, no I did not link to gullivers travels simply because I've seen that trailer like 7 times now I'm tired of linking to that site hit one of my other trailer blogs, it's IN THERE, trust me

The trailers on skyline

Gullivers travels well did this last week so nothing has changed, the gulliver remake starring jack black. It was the exact same trailer as last week so yes it can work. I think the silly take on this tale might work just depends on if they go too over the top.

It has a nice cast who have pulled off decent comedic parts before so like I said if they mesh the studio will be laughing all the way to the bank. Under dog to big man on campus movie they usually work.

Little fockers-its seems the fockers have children and it is time for old Jack to pass the torch to Gaylord Focker. Its hollywood, them milking this joke for "one more gin" while all the principle characters are still alive and kickin yeah wow big surprise here. It might be funny but the whole viagra knock off 4 hour plus erection joke is getting pretty used and abused.

That looks a little harsh I do like most of ben stillers movies, and rarely do you see a Dinero movie that doesn't work and "Meet the Parents" and "Meet the Fockers" were both successful movies so if the well ain dry I won't blame a studio for takin another shot, I mean who would have thought Shrek would have pulled off 3 sequels?

Unknown-this was a new trailer Liam Neeson plays a doctor who was in a car crash in the water and wakes up 4 days later after being in a coma. As usual nobody can find any ID on him but he has some scattered memories and runs off to meet his wife. It seems though that either he doesn't know who he is or else foul play is afoot.(I couldn't find a better link for Unknown possibly the NEW official site isn't up yet, seems there were a few other unknowns out there)


Now if this sounds familiar yes Arnold, Matt, Halle, Kevin and Ben have all been down a similar road before. The clandestine Alice in Wonderland flick is back. Their usually good rides so let's hope this suspense thriller delivers the trailer has me interested.

Sanctum-big hole in the ground, a chasm like no other that people climb into with a huge rainstorm on the horizon. The last few deep cave movies didn't do well and I think from looking at the trailer this movie might continue the trend. I'm sorry but if a hole wide enough for you to base jump into, and deep as all hell can be filled up in a rainstorm why isn't this a "lake" movie.

Oh I know what the narrator said "blase' blah cave the last unexplored place on earth, blah blah, wonder beauty, blah blah, if you don't make it out no one will know your story" now yes this is a James Cameron movie and with "Avatar" James has earned himself a leap of faith movie. I just watched "skyline" which was an apocalyptic movie so I'm not saying a human peril movie won't work. I'm just saying I the guys who is all for hollywood bringing back the magic is saying he might have added a little too much elfin magic on this one. We'll see, as I see more about it maybe I'll become more interested.

Okay those were my 4 trailers and my initial thoughts of them feel free to agree, disagree or offer your own viewpoints if you think I have been unduly harsh. Everybody doesn't like the same movie, and everyone doesn't always catch the "fever" opening week but if a movie catches on or a new trailers piques interest, word of mouth, whatever I'm sure hollywood will take it.

Aiight bedding this one til I hit the house
