Have some trailers:

9.

[I’m kinda glad I’m not a huge Holmes fan, because WTF? But as it is, I can say it’s gonna be awesome!]

And here’s a fanmade one. But wouldn’t it be great?

And here’s another fanmade one, except that this time, there’s an actual movie to go with it: The Hunt for Gollum.

Famous actors stepping out of the fictional closet.

Buffy the Movie remade without Joss Whedon? That’s how you spell catastrophe.

    • Oh, it would be absolutely awesome. Especially if the movie looked and felt like the trailer does.

      Nathan Fillion is good in everything he does. And if he does it in tight green jumpers, that’s fine by me. ;)

  1. Glad you liked the “Isengard” song… :)

    And re the Holmes trailer – WTF is about right! I think trailer-wise they went “well we KNOW Holmes fans are already going to come see it, so we have to hook the violence-and-scantily-clad-female-appreciation crowd!”

    *snarls* Don’t even get me started…
    (of course will probably still go see it about 9 times!)

    • It looks like they felt that Sherlock Holmes needed some spicing up and I’m not sure that’s true.

      Worrying, but if you’re not much of a fan, you’re very likely to go “hell yeah, Robert Downey Jr naked and handcuffed”! At least that’s what I did. ;)

  2. What was that trailer for “The Road” all about? It’s like “Mad Max meets The Happening meets History of Violence”…very, very weird.

    As for Sherlock…I’m torn between WTF??? and awesome…but mostly leaning towards WTF.

    • The Road: “It is a post-apocalyptic tale of a journey taken by a father and his young son over a period of several months, across a landscape blasted by an unnamed cataclysm that destroyed all civilization and, apparently, most life on earth.” [Thank you, Wiki!]

      But it looks really good, methinks. I have the book at home, maybe I’ll even get around to reading it before I see the movie… So many things to do…

      Regarding Sherlock, see my reply to liberrydwarf.

  3. ROFL @ movie tag – “It’s Star Trek meets Pretty Woman!”

    I hope The Road doesn’t get delayed further. I’m a big fan of McCarthy, and The Road is one of my favorite books. And Mortensen is one of my favorite actors. And I worship Theron.

    The fan trailer for Green Lantern made my day. Brilliant!

    • Yeah, I was wondering about the delay of The Road. Seems like all the internet is talking since forever about it already. I really look forward to it.

      The GL trailer is really cool. Especially since GL is kinda the loser of the DC-verse. ;)

  4. interesting, entertaining and procrastination-worthy as always! :)
    already knew the isengard-song, there was another ingenious lotr-song with orcs and the addams family-tune but i can’t find it anymore on youtube… :(
