Trailer Round Up: 7-11-11
Its that time again. Time for me to go through the latest movie trailers, and well review them.
Yes, one of these was posted earlier, but hey what you gonna do about it. Gotta get this out of the way before that thing called Comic Con brings in a whole new slew of trailers.
1. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 Trailer
------------------------------------------------------
Now, I'm aware we will be seeing the actual product in a few days. However, one cannot deny that this trailer brims of marketing goodness. Even for non fans of the franchise, this preview at the film series's final installment. Special effects, spoilers, and a fantastic score give any viewer chills.
Score: A
2. Brave
-------------------------------
Here we have Disney Pixar's Brave. It may be the fact that fans of the stellar animation studio are looking for hope following this year's travesty, Cars 2, but the trailer for Brave works. The animation is stunning, and the glimpse we get at the world Pixar creates is tantalizing. Even more exciting is the idea that Pixar is tackling a Brothers Grimm style fairy tale. That has to be exciting to you.
Score: -A
3. Rise of the Planet of the Apes
--------------------------------------
Ridiculous title aside, this trailer establishes something that the entire marketing campaign for this prequel has been, a deep haunting atmosphere. Caesar, rendered through stunning technology, has already become the emotional focal point for the film. If the film is as strong as these trailers make it seem, than we may have the strongest Planet of the Apes film since the original. Though it still doesn't make sense how about fifty apes can take overall of Los Angeles...
Score: -A
4. Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
----------------------------------------
Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol seems to be more of the same for the Tom Cruise action franchise. However, that is not necessarily a bad thing when it comes to this franchise that is not necessarily a bad thing. There are hints at some interesting action set pieces, and a plot that strays slightly from the norm. I'm still not completely sold, though.
Score: B
5. Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1
------------------------------------
The reason why this film has been split in half is still a mystery to many. Despite the fan service, this trailer really does nothing. Sure, they get married. What else happens? This trailer isn't gonna help. There's alot of vampire sex, and some boy fighting. Nothing else.
Score: D+
6. The Adventures of Tintin
---------------------------------
Although its animations style requires some adjusting, there's little doubt that Tintin is a visual marvel. It is also to see a slightly edgy animated adventure aimed at the all ages demographic. With the promising names of Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg, and Edgar Wright it's pretty easy to get excited.
Score: B+

Cool Stuff: The Adventures of Tintin Trailer
Outside of Rango, this year has been rather lackluster when it comes to animation. The always trusty Pixar delivered its first ever flop, and the rest have been equall uninspired.
This film based off the classic comic books by Belgian artist Georges Rémi produced by Peter Jackson, directed by Steven Spielberg, and written by Edgar Wright looks to be a spectacle on par with some of the highest budget live action films.
Not to mention that gorgeous animation.

Jaimie Bell To Play Peter Parker?

Ever since Sony Pictures dropped the bombshell in January of this year that they will rebooting the Spider-man franchise, the search for a replacement actor has been on. We have seen names ranging from Zach Efron to Robert Pattinson, but according to Bleedingcool.com we may have a new actor already lined up for the web slingers latest outing.
Jaimie Bell, who is best known for his roles in the newest King Kong and Jumper, will reportedly play the title character in Sony's 2012 Spider-man reboot. Bell appeared on a shortlist of possible leads released by Sony last month, which adds credibility to this rumor. Bell also is signed on for Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg's Tintin films.
