Iron Man 3 Poster


I hate the Vanilla-Coke Iron Man suit, but this is a pretty cool poster.

The Conjuring


Pros:
-The trailer features Time of the Season by The Zombies
-It's from the director of the good half of Insidious
-Vera Farmiglia and Patrick Wilson

Cons:
-"Based on a True Story" appears in the trailer
-It's from the director of the bad half of Insidious
-Has more potential to be boring than good

It's a horror movie, so I'll See It

The Wolverine

 

Yes, X-Men Origins: Wolverine was bad.

No, that will not deter me from seeing this.

Disney’s The Lone Ranger

Today's contribution comes from Caitlin Wilson, writer for http://theawkwardlyreversedblog.blogspot.com/
She's guest-blogging today to speak about The Lone Ranger.

           
With the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides in 2011, Disney had officially beaten the franchise to death.  Rather than making audiences sit through another installment to, what was once, a proud franchise, the producers have created The Lone Ranger, which is based off the 1950s TV series.
Johnny Depp plays Tonto, who’s character appears similar to Captain Jack Sparrow to me.  Specifically, in Dead Man’s Chest, when he is the cannibal god.
John Reid, or the Lone Ranger, is played by Armie Hammer, who played the Winklevoss twins in the Social Network.  Did anyone else know that they were played by one guy? (Mind blown.)
Helena Bonham Carter also has a major role in the movie as Red. 
Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter in the same movie usually only points to one director.  But the only thing that stops this from being a Tim Burton movie is the fact that he had nothing to do with the movie.  I checked.

I think I will see it, though.

The Internship

 

June 7th

Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson reunite for the first time since Wedding Crashers in The Internship.  After being fired by their boss (John Goodman.  See:  A Few Good Men) Nick and Billy take an internship at Google in an attempt to salvage their careers.

What follows is sure to be an old-guys-in-a-young-world comedy, with standard jokes being:
-Not knowing how to use technology
-Not understanding pop culture references
-Being called old by the younger generation

While we all know this movie will begin with two middle-agers going nowhere in life, and end with two middle-agers who've used their wit to beat the younger generation, (without the use of modern technology) I'm sure there will be enough humor to help audiences forget the impending cliches that will pervade the film.

Plus, I'm a sucker for a good Prof. Xavier joke.

Although it's impossible to expect the same quality of film and humor from The Internship as Wedding Crashers, Vaughn and Wilson are sure to attract an audience with their first pairing since 2006.

Won't See It 'til DVD

Spiders

It is what it is.  Spiders.


I remember when this movie came out 11 years ago and was called Eight Legged Freaks.  People will always be afraid of spiders, so there's that market.  I would Redbox this if I had a handful of drugs and infinite free time.

Honest Movie Trailers

I can't think of any movie posters/trailers I want to post, so here's an honest one on The Dark Knight Rises.  All of the problems I had with this movie are summed up in this trailer.  Big spoilers for those who haven't seen it.  If anybody hasn't seen it.

Fast & Furious 6

Here's the Fast & Furious 6 spot shown during the Super Bowl last night


"We're talking vehicular warfare"

Fast & Furious does not have a good story.  It doesn't have good actors.  It doesn't really worry about physics, either.  What it does have is entertainment value, and you can bet your ass I will be seeing this movie.
