Trailer: The LEGO Movie

Morgan Freeman as a Godlike character, Chris Pratt as an everyday hero, Will Arnett as Batman, the Ninja Turtles, NBA All Stars, and Liam Neeson all in the same movie? Yes, the dreams you didn't even knew you had are coming ...

Trailer: Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues

With the first official trailer for Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues we finally have a good inkling of what the film will be about. The Channel Four News Team has fallen on hard times in the 80s. They're poised for a big co...

Trailer: Kick Ass 2

A new zip-zap-zoom fancy trailer for the hyper-violent, hyper-curse-word nonsense sequel to Kick Ass has hit the webs. The trailer shows off more Jim Carrey funtimes while also teasing some detail bits about the ma...

Trailer: Riddick

This second trailer for the third Riddick film, titled simply Riddick, doesn't show off too much new stuff from the last trailer, but that doesn't mean it doesn't get us excited. Once again it looks like Riddick is returning...

Trailer: The Wolf of Wall Street

You know if Martin Scorcese and Leonardo DiCaprio keep making amazing movies we may just have to have them make all of the movies. Every one. Take the first trailer for The Wolf of Wall Street. It looks fantastic and easily ...

Trailer: Only God Forgives

The newest trailer for Nicolas Winding Refn's Only God Forgives is more "direct" (meaning helpful dialogue hints are sprinkled in) than the previously released international ones, but it still manages to pack a wallop. OGF t...

Extended World War Z clip is pretty much World War Z

World War Z has had nothing but rough times from its first rough looking trailer. First it got a forced new ending, then it was delayed and had to go through seven weeks of reshoots, then there was news t...

Trailer: R.I.P.D.

I was won over by R.I.P.D. very easily because its lead character is named Nick (and of course it features of one my boos, Mary Louise Parker). Now if all movies could feature a guy named Nick forevermore, I'd be totally coo...

Trailer: Snowpiercer

Although this trailer is a little wonky (the sound has a few problems), I can't just ignore new footage of Bong Joon-Ho's Snowpiercer. The film may be only opening in South Korea in August (with no domestic release date...

Should films be changed in response to real-world events?

Low turnout this week, but The (Movie) Question moves forever forward. And it really had to, because this week we unveil the new introduction animation created by community member Jordan Mann, who is awesome. Also, it's in H...

Flix for Short: The Real World: This is the End Edition

This is the End is one of the funniest films of the year so far if you're a fan of Seth Rogen and his gang. Even if you're not, you're still going to find yourselves laughing. A good gauge of how funny This is the End is goi...

Trailer: 300: Rise of an Empire

Here's the first trailer for 300: Rise of an Empire (which I still want to refer to as 299) and it's everything you should expect from a 300 movie...if you can remember back that far. Since the new film will take place at th...

Trailer: Man of Tai Chi

We had a previous trailer for Man of Tai Chi, but it was all meant for the Asian market and subtitled. Who wants that crap? We want trailers pandering to us English speaking folk with text we can understand, damn it! Well, h...

Trailer: The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

Are movie trailers too long?

Trailer: Insidious: Chapter 2

Video: behind the special effects in Fast & Furious 6

Red Band Trailer: Kick-Ass 2

The last trailer for Kick-Ass 2 left me very un-enthused for the film. It just didn't seem to have the same dark comedic streak that the first one had. With a new director and screenwriter that makes sense, but it just ...

New Alamo Drafthouse "Don't Talk" PSA is the best yet

I love Alamo Drafthouse "Don't Talk" PSAs. They're funny, snarky, and they have a fantastic message: shut up when you're watching a goddamn movie. The newest PSA is the best, and the reason it's the best is because...
