Trailer Park: Get Him To The Greek
Trailer up for Get Him To The Greek, a pseudo-sequel to the amusing Forgetting Sarah Marshall and featuring Jonah Hill being sent to chaperone rock star Russell Brand from London to a gig in NYC in 72 hours. Or something. Actually could be quite funny.

Trailer Park: The A-Team
Unfortunately, this plan seems to have come together and there's a trailer out for the Joe Carnahan-directed A-Team movie. Doesn't look too bad - until they fall out of a plane and parachute down in a tank, guns blazing.... YouTube it.

Trailer Park: Robin Hood
Not sure about you, but I have a pretty specific idea of a what a Robin Hood movie made by Ridley Scott/ Russell Crowe might look like.
Here it is.

Trailer Park: Avatar
Full length trailer up for James Cameron's Avatar movie. I'd like to tell you this one doesn't make it look so much like "Jar Jar Bink's National Vacation".

Trailer up for the new Richard Linklater picture Me & Orson Welles, featuring a well-cast Christian McKay as the big man himself, Clare Danes and that kid from High School Musical as the 'me' of the title.

Trailer Park: Red Cliff
US trailer up for 'legendary action cinema master' John Woo's latest - Red Cliff. Shot in China with assistance from the top level I believe.
The western release of this Chinese history epic is literally half the length of the original cut - running 148 minutes instead of 280. I wonder is there's a half-as-long cut of Face/Off floating around?

Trailer Park: no end to the horror revival
looks like we're in for a whole load of horror/horror spoofs over the next few months in trailer park land: get ready for Transylmania (see what they've done there? clever), The Vampire's Assistant with John C Reilly, Woody Harrelson in Zombieland, spooky babysitter thrills in The House Of The Devil and New Moon - the next part in the Twilight series

Trailer Park: This Is It
Can't help thinking that there's a kind of perverse brilliance in the last Michael Jackson performance being played out to no-one (and now everyone) - like those rumours of Diana's coffin being empty in her funeral procession. Where's Baudrillard when you need someone to decode the emptiness of late capitalism's blank heroes, the vacuum of celebrity?
This Is It Trailer.

New air drumming comedy Adventures of Power - starring Ari Gold - yup, he's got the same name as Jeremy Piven's character in Entourage - and also, confusingly, Adrian Grenier - aka Vince from Entourage...

Trailer Park: Youth In Revolt
Youth In Revolt might get round the problem of having Michael Cera riff off his Arrested Development character in every film - here he does that, but also creates a super-obnoxious alter ego who's nothing like him. Que Cera, Cera etc

Trailer Park: The Men Who Stare At Goats
Trailer up for the new Psy-ops comedy The Men Who Stare At Goats, starring George Clooney, Ewan McGregor and a post-dude Jeff Bridges. The movie is directed by Clooney's Smokehouse Productions buddy Grant Heslov.
It's based on the book of the same name and is the 'true' story of the US Military's attempts to use harness psychic powers...

Trailer Park: The Wolfman
not really surprising that there would be a werewolf movie following all the vampire action recently - here's one with Benicio Del Toro, Anthony Hopkins, Hugo Weaving and Emily Blunt. No prizes for guessing who's the hairy monster here

Trailer Park: Avatar
Trailer up for James Cameron's long-awaited movie Avatar. Looks alright, but I'm not holding my breath. 3D motion capture, blah blah blah. Looks a bit like one of those cheapo saturday morning Channel 5 animations to me.
Am I the only one who doesn't worship at the altar of Cameron?

Trailer Park: Gentlemen Broncos
didn't really like Napoleon Dynamite, but the new comedy from writer/director Jared Hess Gentlemen Broncos looks a lot more promising - especially with a post-Conchords Jemaine Clements in it as fantasy author Dr Ronald Chevalier

Trailer Park: Inherent Vice
something of a rarity - a trailer for a book is odd enough, a trailer for a Thomas Pynchon novel is pretty unheard of. is it really him?!

Trailer Park: The Lovely Bones
Trailer up for Peter Jackson's new movie - The Lovely Bones. It gives me the shudders, as the title and concept just make me think of What Dreams May Come - a strong contender for worst movie of all time.

'Dirty version' trailer up for Judd Apatow's new movie Funny People, about hit comedian Adam Sandler hiring Seth Rogan to write his jokes. Looks good - and could provide some redemption for Eric Bana.

Trailer Park: The Box / Couples Retreat / The Informant!
Steven Soderbergh has another movie in the can - The Informant! stars Matt Damon and former time-traveller Scott Bakula - and plays like a comedy Insider.
And then ....coming to the back of an airline seat near you, Vince Vaughn, Jason Bateman and Jon Favreau star in the comedy Couples Retreat about a bunch of couples who head out to a retreat to work on their marriages.
Plus, Donnie Darko's R-Kelly (Richard, that is) has a third attempt to fulfill his potential - The Box.
