"Back the fuck up and watch"

A literally 'red' band trailer for Machete. No Lohan billing OR Don Johnson? LAME.



Still going to be there opening night.

New Machete trailer



Saw this at the theater last night... pretty slick trailer, better than the first, and better than what I was seeing/Rodriguez's other summer effort, Predators.

"Introducing Don Johnson" never fails to make me laugh... I love how Seagal gets second-billing--let's hope the part lives up to that. No Lohan with the big controversy, a shame. I love the flashes of villiany around the :40 mark. De Niro, Johnson, Seagal, and don't forget Jeff Fahey. Some of the best villains come in ensembles... RoboCop, Kill Bill, even The Dark Knight, and this looks to be one helluva example. And M-Rod is so ridiculously hot I don't even know what to say. Should be fun.

Operation: Endgame

I remember hearing about this way back, putting it on some list of action titles to look forward to or whatever. Well, fortunately, I can still say I'm looking forward to it, though not by any leaps and bounds. It's teetering between 'it could be better than it looks' and buriable-DTD status. Check it out:

"I think I've found a way home"

UPDATED: With better quality.

Christopher Nolan has, at least. Check it:



It's all coming down to this, man. Biggest film of the year. Must not disappoint.

"Introducing..."

Two words: DON JOHNSON.



Two more words: STEVEN SEAGAL.

And a special message: "TO ARIZONA."

De Niro looks like a hoot, Lindsay Lohan was BORN to wear that outfit/gun, I LOVE how he heavily incorporated the original fake trailer--the stock music is a great touch too. And I almost made a mess of myself when M-Rod straddled the man himself. HOT DAMN! 2010 is the year of the Rodriguez!

Paul W.S. "Cameron"... all he ever needed was some good C.G.I.

Skipped posting the new pics out of laziness, but I simply cannot pass this up:



Isn't saying much, but this could be the best of the series! GOD-DAMN!

Brace yourself

The masochistic side of me wants to watch this.

"He loves playing in the jungle."

I'm too tired right now to actually digest the insta-controversy over the blatantly-spoiled cameos, but hey, I thought it was awesome. The thing that bugged me the most: not enough Dolph. I'll be there either way, obviously.

"Next time, we don't date the girl with..."



Still not 100% on this one... a full trailer might clear that up, but I'm still excited. If you want to make a movie like a video game, don't actually make it like a video game, but just make it awesome, a la Kill Bill, Vol. 1. That's really my main concern at this point. We'll see how it progresses.

Oh, and the boyfriend-villains better be fucking awesome. If they are all half-assed, I will officially be disappointed.

Predators trailer

The full trailer is a little stagey/trying too hard, but that doesn't mean I'm not excited. Alice Braga is on her way to one-upping Michelle Rodriguez. Okay, maybe not one-upping, but at least achieving her rank. In other words, Alice Braga = HOT.



Everybody looks cool! I can't deny it. Yes, even Topher!

"Vengeance, is the mission."

Trailer for The Mechanic remake. Well cast (Statham, Foster, and Sutherland), looks somewhat gritty, pretty good, might see it.

Money Never Sleeps, and it always sells

Did Stone and Douglas actually pull this one off? Shia, too?



Dammit, I think they did. This looks like the first genuinely-wholesome throwback in awhile. That is, if Shutter Island stinks as much as the reviews that are coming in. I'll probably catch it this weekend.

'But only a fool gets killed for a heart transplant.'

UPDATE: According to AICN, it's definitely not a remake, but let's be honest, it's not exactly easy to shake such an iconic title, either.

This looks like a positively inspired new twist on the original material, if not a completely new twist altogether:



I love Repo Man, but Repo Men could be pretty kick-ass as well. We'll keep you posted.

Reaction Action Roundup: "Been over this all before..."

...with the trailer, and probably the movie as a whole as well, but you have to admit, Dolph Lundgren is still pretty badass:



And this is new trailer, by the way. Supposedly.

In other news, "I told you, you weren't going to get that back." [I'm starting to laugh each time I see/hear this in the theater...when it finally comes out, I may have to be put down]. Poster's pretty rockin' though:



In reboot/remake/sequel/adaptation news, some legit grit is finally added to this pussyfest. Got me a little excited. Just a little (my boy Nimrod got the hookups!).

Shit man I know where the money is (look to see where the money is).

And finally, tonight's the night...probably not as big as The Dark Knight, but it should be something. Something or another. Review to follow.

Brooklyn's Finest trailer

I've been waiting a long time for this one, and I'm glad to say it looks worthwhile, at least on a Street Kings type level. Have a look:



It may not be Antoine Fuqua's return to form (i.e. Training Day), but hopefully it's a step in the right direction. We'll keep you posted.

Universal Soldier: Regeneration trailer

Check it:



I love how the trailer pretty much spells it out for you. "THIS GUY and DOLPH LUNDGREN take on VAN DAMME, AGAIN." Looks fun though.

Kick Ass indeed

UPDATE ON UPDATE ACTION: Back up, apparently.

UPDATE: The Lion at Lionsgate has asked me to take it down, and out of respect, I have. Very un-kick-ass.

The teaser:

Kick-Ass
