Over the weekend I received a mysterious package from Portland Oregon. Turns out it was from the animators and puppeteers behind the upcoming film Coraline, the first stop-animated film shot in 3D.
Based on Gaiman’s short children’s novel of the same name, Coraline is a young bored girl who discovers that bricked-up wall behind a door in her house leads to another dimension, where she has a different mother, and different father. Directed by Henry Selick, the guy behind The Nightmare Before Christmas, James and the Giant Peach and Monkeybone. the film features the voice talent of Dakota Fanning, Ian McShane, Teri Hatcher, and Keith David.
I decided to record the opening [...]

Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire just might be the best film of the year, it’s certainly in my top 10 (you can read David Chen’s review here). That said, there is absolutely NOTHING good about the latest Slumdog Millionaire international movie trailer. It feels like a 1980’s film advertisement, complete with cheesy voice over, an upbeat song, and the best moments from the film edited into the worst possible order. But please, don’t let this poor excuse for a movie advertisement influence your decision. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend checking out the much better domestic trailer.

USA Today has an exclusive clip from Fox Searchlight’s upcoming Notorious B.I.G. biopic, Notorious. The clip features newcomer Jamal Woolard as Chris Wallace who proposes to Antonique Smith as Faith Evans, after knowing her for only nine days. Woolard says the central question of the movie is — is Biggie a “bad guy trying to be good, or a good guy trying to be bad?” Your thoughts in the comments below!

“But Black Dynamite, I sell drugs to the community.” With this new red band trailer, Black Dynamite officially blazes its way onto the Most Anticipated List. Way back in July, the buzzing stealth passion project from writer/director, Scott Sanders, and writer/star, Michael Jai White, miraculously won me over by making exhausted, semi-ironic blaxploitation homage seem fresh again. Since that time, Rudy Ray Moore kicked the bucket, we elected a half-black president and the good peoples at New York’s Ars Nova Entertainment just informed me that their film has been accepted by Sundance. Disclaimer: They also sent over some motherfucking swag.
Ditching the previous red band’s ghetto-projector flicker, the new one favors [...]

A new international trailer has been released for David Fincher’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button which I don’t believe I’ve ever seen before. Check it out below, or click on through to Bad Taste for the High Definition sized version. Is it just me or does every new trailer just get better and better?

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button hits theaters on December 25th 2008.

I was a little bored of all the character posters that have been released so far, so I slapped together this Star Trek teaser poster in photoshop using the computer wallpaper from the official Star Trek website. What do you think?

Update: The artist now claims that these concept photos are his own personal designs and were not created for James Cameron’s Avatar.
I’m Jonay Bacallado, the author of the images. They are part of my artwork, my personal artwork, and it has nothing to do with the actual concept art of the film. The interview will be removed from www.plansiete.com as well, I’ve spoken aboput his incident with responsibles of the program, becuase information it’s not accurate, and things can be misunderstood. Please, I have to ask you to remove this information, because the images shown are part of my own portfolio, no one has asked for authorisation, and of course,and [...]

Paramount Pictures has released 2 new posters for JJ Abrams‘ Star Trek. Keeping with the black look introduced with the last set of Kirk and Spock character banners, these new teaser posters feature Eric Bana as the Romulan villain Nero and Zoe Saldana as Uhura. Check them out after the jump. We have the high resolution digital files. So as always, click to enlarge.

One of the movies I’ve been looking forward to is Superbad director Greg Mottola’s Adventureland coming of age film based on his own experiences at the Long Island amusement park. Set in 1987, the film follows James Brennan (Jesse Eisenberg), an uptight recent college grad forced to take a minimum wage job at an amusement park when he realizes he can’t afford his dream tour of Europe. Writer/director Greg Mottola – best known as the director of the hit comedy Superbad – channeled his own experiences as a low-paid amusement park employee while making the film.

Co-starring Kristen Stewart, Ryan Reynolds, Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig and Martin Star. I hear it’s [...]

20th Century Fox has released a movie trailer for Ice Age: Dawn of The Dinosaurs. If you ask me, the only thing good about the Ice Age films is the cute little squirrel-like creature — Scrat. He is the main selling point of the entire franchise. The Ice Age movie trailer function almost as mini Pixar-like short films. Unfortunately, the films have yet to be half as entertaining as the trailers. Tell me what you think in the comments below.

Paramount has finally released the official one-sheets for David Fincher’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Last week we posted some iPhone photos of the posters on display at a multiplex, so I thought it was be only fair to follow-up with the official digital files, now that they’re available.

Fox Searchight has finally released a movie trailer for Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler. You’ve heard the buzz, Mickey Rourke’s performance is Oscar worthy. The Wrestler is, without a doubt, one of the best films of this year. I’m confident that it will grace many critic top 10’s come late December. The music track that Bruce Springstein wrote for the film is used front and center, and it is really amazing how well it works over clips from the film. Please leave your thoughts in the comments below. I would like to hear what you think of the trailer.

Summit Entertainment has released the first teaser trailer for Astro Boy. It looks like it could be cool, but then again, so did IMAGI’s TMNT, and that film ended up being a focused more towards young audiences than everyone was expecting. Check out the trailer after the jump. Leave your thoughts in the comments below!

A couple weeks ago we posted a poster for the Fifth Season of Lost. It turned out to be an early marketing promo. ABC has finally released the final one-sheet for the upcoming season. What do you think?
