Trailer Madness

Here's HOP. It's another live-action/CGI hybrid film and I'm unconvinced by Russell Brand's performance in it but -- its written by the very funny and talented Brian Lynch. I think it could be good...

Tron Uprising, the animated series.
 
I'll have to echo what everyone else says about Thor and Captain America looking awesome, the first Transformers was good, it ended neatly with everything resolved, there was no need for a sequel, as for POTC I've enjoyed the other three films so I'll be interested to see how this turns out, X Men: First Class looks good as well.
 
Okay, so it's the month of March, here's a reminder of a British comedy film that is coming out next week and the buzz surrounding it has been overwhelmingly positive:

Submarine

I'm reading a book about the making of that awesome film, Night of the Living Dead, so here's a zombie film trailer that caught my eye:

Humans vs. Zombies

Another British film - this one is coming out in May. Directed by Joe Cornish:

Attack the Block

Ah, okay. I quite like him, his character Dwight in The Office goes up and down depending on the writer - he was much more consistent and less baffoonish in the beginning, much like a lot of the show. Anyway, he's a good comedic performer and I'm very much looking forward to Super.

Sorry about bumping all the trailers on the following page. Submarine looks interesting, I don't like The IT Crowd much but Richard Ayoade is very talented and funny. (He directed an episode of Community too!). Conflicted about Attack The Block though, we'll see.

I'm not sure about Attack the Block either (urban-yoof schtick could get tiresome) but Submarine has been getting a lot of critical accalim.

Also The Smurfs (which looks like a totally smurfing smurfwreck) and Cars 2 (that looks to even more unnecessary by the day. And I'm a fan of the original.)
