trailer break: ‘Law & Order: UK’

Take a break from work: watch a TV trailer… I’ve been hearing about the expansion of the Law & Order franchise to London for a while now, and when I was there last week, I kept seeing this ad on ITV for the show. Somehow I had managed to not hear that both Jamie Bamber … more…

trailer break: ‘Fired Up’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… Again with the Hollywood and the hating females. Again with the women ruining perfect normal guys with their emotions and their hotness and their making the perfectly normal guys fall in love and do all sorts of things that perfectly normal guys shouldn’t do, like feel things. … more…

trailer break: ‘The Good, the Bad, the Weird’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… A “Western” with motorcycles and knife-throwing? Ho-kay.

trailer break: ‘Anvil! The Story of Anvil’

Take a break from work: watch a trailer… “If i told them once, I told them a thousand times: ‘Spinal Tap’ first, ‘puppet show’ second…” I’ve been seeing ads for this film in the London Underground, and I was sure it had to be a joke. And when I started searching online for info about … more…

trailer break: ‘Torchwood Season Three’

Take a break from work: watch a TV trailer… So, not Village of the Damned but Planet of the Damned, then… Torchwood: Children of Earth returns to BBC One later in 2009; god only knows when we’ll officially get to see it in the U.S.

trailer break: ‘Earth’

Take a break from work: watch a movie trailer… Ah god, I’m gonna be a basket case. Elephant families? Polar bears swimming for their lives? Oh man… Earth opens in the U.S. on April 22; it played in U.K. cinemas in 2007 (perhaps in a slightly different version?).
