Trailer Watch: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 full trailer

A full trailer for the sequel to Chris Miller and Phil Lord’s awesomely unfaithful adaptation of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is online. Cody Cameron and Kris Pearn take over as directors, working from a script by John Francis Daley (yes, Sam Weir from Freaks and Geeks) and Jonathan M. Goldstein (The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, Horrible Bosses).

The unimaginatively titled Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 doesn’t quite have the same zing that Miller and Lord brought to the first Cloudy, or Clone High, or even 21 Jump Street — but I’ll take it.

Bill Hader, Anna Faris, James Caan, Andy Samberg, Neil Patrick Harris, Benjamin Bratt, Terry Crews (taking over for Mr. T), Will Forte, and Kristen Schaal provide the voices for the September 27, 2013, release.

Trailer Watch: Movie 43 red band trailer

I’m usually a little nervous about anthology movies, but how can you go wrong with this trailer —

— and with this cast (Johnny Knoxville, Gerard Butler, Anna Faris, Seann William Scott, Hugh Jackman, Richard Gere, Uma Thurman, Halle Berry, Emma Stone, Naomi Watts, Kate Bosworth, Kate Winslet, Terrence Howard, Liev Schreiber, Justin Long, Kristen Bell, Patrick Warburton, Josh Duhamel, Jason Sudeikis, Chloe Grace Moretz, Stephen Merchant, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Jack McBrayer, Kieran Culkin and Chris Pratt) and these directors —Elizabeth Banks, Steven Brill, Steve Carr, Rusty Cundieff, James Duffy, Griffin Dunne, Peter Farrelly, Patrik Forsberg, James Gunn, Bob Odenkirk and… uh, Brett Ratner. Can’t win ’em all, right? Maybe his bit will be good, though. Who the hell knows?

Anyway, January 25, 2013. Be there.

Trailer Watch: Sacha Baron Cohen’s The Dictator

Sacha Baron Cohen  is back with a more traditional (read: scripted) comedy this time: The Dictator, the “heroic story of dictator who risks his life to ensure that democracy would never come to the country he so lovingly oppressed.” Moviefone has the first trailer, which has a few good laughs in it.

The Dictator was directed by e and Brüno diretor Larry Charles and hits theaters on May 11, 2012. The film also stars Ben Kingsley, John C. Reilly and Anna Faris (who either wasn’t in the trailer, or I blinked).
