Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Well, Vera, obviously there is something wrong with being different. We’ll never guess her secret? Oh, pul-leeze. She’s Satan’s slave. She’s Carrie’s clone. No, wait, she’s Damien’s child! And she killed Damien, and that’s why she’s an orphan! No? Not scary anymore? We need something more modern … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Yea, female empowerment! But in what universe is Amy Adams fat? C’mon… I hope the movie is as promising as the trailer suggests.

So here’s an early peek at Tim Burton’s adaptation of Alice in Wonderland, scheduled for release in March 2010: That’s Johnny Depp, of course, as the … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Jerry Bruckheimer is making rodent movies now, eh? It’s like The A-Team with rats. And the guy named “Blaster” got that name for his propensity to fart loudly on a regular basis, I’m guessing… I’m onboard for Bill Nighy as the bad guy, however. And anyone who … more…
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… You know how yesterday I complained that there isn’t enough Christopher Eccleston in the trailer for Amelia? Well, here’s a second trailer for G.I.
