Via RyanSeacrest.com (weird, right?) comes the second trailer for Tarsem Singh’s 300-style swords-and-weird-accents spectacle, Immortals. It still looks kinda cool, but we’ll see if Tarsem Singh can actually work some real storytelling into all this style, where Zack Snyder failed.
The film stars Henry Cavill, Stephen Dorff, Freida Pinto, John Hurt and Mickey Rourke, and it opens (in both 2D and 3D) on November 11.
We’ve seen a couple of trailers so far, but nothing this in-depth — and other than the über-rockin’ music (which probably won’t be in the largely WW2-era movie) — I think it’s a doozy.
Joe Johnston’s Captain America opens July 22, 2011.
After a handful ofparody trailers (including a Green Lantern-inspired one from a couple of days ago that I didn’t post here), we finally have a full trailer for the The Muppets. (The first one, anyway.)
Jason Segel (who co-wrote the script) really seems to get the Muppets’ brand of corny humor, and Amy Adams in hyperactive mode is practically a living Muppet herself; I don’t think you could ask for a better duo to help bring them back to the big screen this Thanksgiving.
This short (2:25) featurette on Terrence Malick’s The Tree of Life sees two of the most popular directors today — Christopher Nolan and David Fincher — discussing Terrence Malick (The Thin Red Line, Badlands) and, mostly indirectly, the director’s new film. Malick can be a bit too ponderous for some filmgoers, but I always find it interesting to see filmmakers discuss other filmmakers’ work.
The featurette also displays a bit of footage we haven’t seen in trailers yet, so it’s worth seeing in that respect, too.
