trailer break: ‘Marmaduke’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… No, not Lee Pace! Judy Greer? William H. Macy? This is what Beverly Hills Chihuahua and its $94.5 million domestic gross hath wrought. I blame every single person who bought a ticket to that movie and later told their friends things like: those outfits on Chloe were … more…

trailer break: ‘The Last Song’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Miley Cyrus and Nicholas Sparks? It’s a match made in an overly sweet diabetic coma! Is the rich Florida boyfriend dying of cancer? Is he about to go off to war? I’m trying to think of a situation that could be milked for more sappiness, but nothing’s … more…

trailer break: ‘Kick-Ass’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… I understand why the geek community is very very very very very very psyched for this movie. I don’t see how this movie is much different from Mystery Men, however. Kick-Ass opens in the U.K. on April 2, and in the U.S. and Canada on April 16.

retro trailer: ‘Back to the Future’

trailer break: ‘Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang’

But also baby pigs and baby elephants, Rhys Ifans and Bill Bailey, Emma Thompson and Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Ralph Fiennes in … more…

trailer break: ‘Predators’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… See, I was all set to be all hopeful about this one. Adrien Brody! And Topher Grace! In an action movie! That’s gotta be a sign of something different and interesting, right? But this just makes it look like Pitch Black meets Jurassic Park. But not in … more…

trailer break: ‘Eat Pray Love’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… You have to respond to a guy who looks like Yoda who cold-reads you and tells you some mushy bullshit that could apply to anyone? Huh. I was not aware of this. I don’t know the book this movie based on, but if it really is about … more…

bonus trailer break! ‘Doctor Who’ BBC America trailer

In case the new BBC trailer earlier didn’t satisfy: Because too much Doctor Who is never enough. “All of time and space. Everything that ever happened, and everything that ever will. Where do you wanna start?” There’s more of a taste of Amy Pond here, and that’s definitely River Song’s voice at one point… Doctor … more…
