The first that really caught my eye was The secret life of Walter Mitty. I don't really like Ben Stiller that much, I think the parts he usually plays just dumb himself down from the actor he could be, given the right movie. Is this that movie? I don't think so, but the trailer was very 'nice'. The cover artwork caught my eye, as it usually does with film, and so I watched the trailer. It looks like quite a cute film, I like the music used in the trailer, and even though the film is a remake it looks quite promising. I get the vibe that its the sort of film you would watch, enjoy, and forget about a fortnight later.
Next up is Under The Skin, starring Scarlett Johansson as an alien seductress who preys upon hitchhikers in Scotland. There is no movie poster as of yet so I will just insert a picture of Scarlett Johansson half naked here (you're welcome):
The trailer for this is actually a 'first look' so it is short and consists of a few weird clips put together. I'm not even sure if the movie is finished yet but the release date is early next year. The film may become quite talked about for the sheer oddity of it and the fact that there looks to be many risque scenes involving Scarlett. This 'first look' trailer has definitely not made me want to watch the film.
What's next I hear you scream? Why it's The Wolf of Wall Street.
Oh look it's yellow, how original.. Any film containing Leo DiCap is going on my 'need to watch multiple times list' so it's really of no surprise that I liked this trailer. However despite the lead actor being in my opinion, brill, the film itself looked very interesting and with Scorsese as the director, what can go wrong? The trailer is very fast paced with a hint of comedy and some smoldering looks from Leo. I may even splash out and go to the cinema to watch this one.
Last and by every means least may I present Escape Plan.
I really actually like the idea of this film; a guy who escapes from prisons for a living being put into a brand new escape-proof state of the art jail. This story line could have been taken down the horror route, being made into something like saw, or could have easily gone down the intelligent and very clever route and turned into something great like Inception or Memento. However this film was taken down the action route. Possibly the worst. Add the should be retired Stallone and Schwarzenegger to an action flick and you've got something almost catastrophic. The trailer was bad and I'm sure the film will be too. Added to my never ever watch list.
So that was my run down of a few brand new trailers, now you can decide which to spend your hours watching.
