- I have watched this trailer three times.
- I will watch it again later.
- I don’t know how many times I will watch it.
- I love that it doesn’t follow modern trailer style in revealing entire sequences. It still teases, while expanding on the earlier trailers.
- I love Nolan’s epic style.
- I might spring for the IMAX.
- I never spring for the IMAX.
- Bane’s voice is very cool.
- There should be a soundtrack for just the trailer music from Nolan’s films.
- If the third movie in a franchise has a trailer/marketing campaign that REALLY compels you to go back and watch the first two movies again, YOU’RE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT AS A FILMMAKER.
- I read something spoilery about Gordon-Levitt’s role this morning and I’m bummed that I did.
- I know something else spoilery that I haven’t read anywhere about this movie. I’m not sure if it’s true or what it means for the story.
- If this movie opened today I would fake a terrible illness and go see it twice.
- I’d even pay twice.
oh my god, wow
Much like the plot of the movie, I had no faith in this film. But boy, was I wrong to doubt it. Inventive, witty, clever, heart-warming, and all round family fun, The Muppets warmed up my socially-constructed ice-block of a heart, and haven’t let go.
The direction is brilliant, the songs (provided by one half of my favourite folk parody band - Brett MacKenzie) are the perfect mix of humour and heart, and the acting is bang on. Not one to gush over films normally, especially when they include fluffy animals with ‘fart shoes’, I couldn’t really fault this movie as it really does fit exactly with what it is supposed to be: fun and entertaining. In these harsh times, isn’t what everyone needs an escape from reality? And this film certainly provides it. Watch this if you want to regress to a time when the world was a nicer, more fantastical, place.
Well, it’s that time of the week again folks. Yes, the weekend. Many of you may be thinking… Brrr it’s bloody freezing what can I do that won’t a) get me wet b) freeze my fingers and toes and c) entertain me in this world of deadly wetness and coldness. Why not head down to your local (perhaps friendly) cinema? Here’s the treats on offer from the film world this week, for you to feast (your little eyes) on.
For those who can stand JarJar Binks a second time around:
Star Wars Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace 3D
Bringing you the story that created the legacy and a whole load of wild-eyed sci-fi fans.
For those who love what Pink called a feel-good time…
The Muppets
Jason Segel brings those puppets back in fashion with a jaunty tale of love, life and muppet magic.
For those who believe true love ways…
The Vow
Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum swan around looking pretty and re-finding love in this almost-died-lost-my-memory-now-falling-in-love-again romance.
For those are obsessed with whales (because there’s no other reason to see it)…
Big Miracle
Drew Barrymore and a small child go on a mission to save a family of grey whales from their unfortunate fate in the Arctic Circle.
For those who like saying ‘you would say that’ in a knowing way…
A Dangerous Method
A fictional look at the relationship between Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung and how psychoanalysis changed the way we view the world.
For people who want to throw popcorn over their next door neighbours…
The Woman in Black
Daniel Radcliff loses the lightening bolt and dons a lawyer suit to investigate the death of a client and his strange house in the middle of nowhere. Scariness ensues.
Cabin in the Woods - More Like Blabbing in the Woods. HA!
Let’s step away from the less-than unique movie title and consult the trailer for just one darn-tooting minute.
Okay… Kids taking a trip outta town. Nothing new there. Off they go to a remote cabin not located on GPS, no surprises so far.
They consult a boggle-eyed tobacco spitting red-neck for directions. He looks at them shiftily then obviously points them in the right direction but tells them they probably won’t be returning. Urm… Seeing any similarities to ever single other horror movie involving young’uns in a remote area?
Queue the party scene interposed with a scene of the protagonists impending doom. An eagle gets obliterated. Nice. Then the cat-and-mouse game of life and death starts.
So, what’s the deal? Josh Whedon is amazing, but I don’t understand what this is about. Why are Total Film writing glorious top star reviews when makes it look like something on par with the clap trap that comes from Hollywood horror these days. Here’s hoping it’s more than it seems. Maybe this is some clever diversionary tactic to get mainstream viewers in the cinema and then blow their minds, leftfield style.
*Squeezes eyes shut and wishes hard*

Seems completely nonsensical, But how adorable do they look!
A London-based film PR company recently held a screening of Lady And The Tramp for dogs, to celebrate the release of the Blu-ray.
We’re not entirely sure why they did that, but we’re really glad they did. It’s possibly the cutest thing we’ve ever seen.
Read our review of the Lady And The Tramp Blu-ray here.
