Here’s the latest trailer for Southpaw!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Will Southpaw get Jake Gyllenhaal the Oscar nomination that he deserved for Nightcrawler?

Hmmm…it’s hard to say.  The Academy definitely owes Gyllenhaal for snubbing him earlier this year.  But Southpaw doesn’t necessarily look like an Oscar nominee.  Instead, it looks like … well, it looks like every other melodramatic boxing film that’s ever been made.

But, still — I’ll see it when it’s released on July 24th.  At this point, I’ll watch Jake Gyllenhaal in just about anything…

(Except for Love and Other Drugs.  Don’t even get me started on that…)

Anyway, here’s the latest trailer for Southpaw!

Extender Trailer: Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!

Now, I asked that question on July 1st and you know what?  Obama has yet to give me an answer, which I guess means that I now know how I’ll be voting in 2016.  Maybe our President will reconsider his position after watching the latest trailer for Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!

Trailer: London Has Fallen

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

London Has Fallen, the sequel to Olympus Has Fallen, will not be opening until 2016.  But, until then, we can enjoy this trailer!  It’s fun and exciting in the way that action film trailers often are, promising us a world of thrills that the actual film will probably not deliver.

But until the disillusionment sets in, enjoy this trailer for London Has Fallen!

Trailer: Steve Jobs

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

To be honest, I’m really only interesting in seeing Steve Jobs because it stars Michael Fassbender and it was directed by Danny Boyle.  I do, however, think it will be interesting to see Seth Rogen in a dramatic role and I’m also curious to see if Kate Winslet can overcome the fact that screenwriter Aaron Sorkin is incapable of writing strong female characters.

(And for those of you about to go, “What about C.J. on The West Wing!?,” don’t.  Just don’t.  First off, everyone always cites C.J. as a strong female character in a Sorkin-penned melodrama and it’s gotten just a little bit boring.  Secondly, I never watched The West Wing because I had and continue to have a life.)

Here’s the latest trailer for the very Oscar baitish Steve Jobs.

 

Double Your Pleasure With Two Tom Hardys in Legend!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

Will Tom Hardy finally get his Oscar nomination this year?  Well, he has already starred in one of the best films of the year, Mad Max: Fury Road, though I would argue that Charlize Theron is the one who deserves to be nominated for that film.

However, Hardy may have a chance of scoring a nomination for his performance in the fact-based gangster film, Legend!  Not only is Hardy playing a real-life killer (which always seems to be a good way to get nominated, just ask Steve Carell) but he’s also playing twins!

That’s double the Tom Hardy!

Legend will be released in October.

Here’s The First Look Promo For Fear The Walking Dead!

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

This promo for AMC’s upcoming Fear The Walking Dead is entitled Nick’s Escape.  It really doesn’t tell us anything about the show, beyond the fact that there’s a guy named Nick who can run.  It’s too early to say whether or not Nick is hot, largely because he’s running here and he’s too scared to do any hot guy facial expressions.

Still, the music is effective.

Fear The Walking Dead will premiere this August.
