Super Trailer Thursday vol. 3

Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on March 16, 2006

Here are some trailers that you should be looking at for the upcoming week:

A Scanner Darkly [Trailer]
I was very intrigued by Richard Linklater’s earlier work, Waking Life. He has since committed near career suicide in his direction of a half-witted remake of The Bad News Bears. But even with that recent shortfall he seems to be coming back strong with another visually stunning feature in A Scanner Darkly. Keanu Reeves is less annoying now that the Matrix trilogy is complete, so it looks to be a solid one.
V for Vendetta [Trailer]
This seems to be one of the most anticipated films of the spring, right behind X-Men 3. From the Wachowski Brothers, whom you may be familiar with from the Matrix trilogy. V is the story of a freedom fighter in futuristic Britain who uses terrorist tactics to fight intollerance. The visual effects are sure to be world class, and with Natalie Portman thown in for support, you can’t go wrong.
Scary Movie 4 [Trailer]
Let’s see if we can repeat the success of the most recent Scary Movie flop… No Wayans brothers, but this one does include someone trying to kill Dr. Phil. And as much as that interests me, I don’t know if this one will escape being sentenced to weeks buried in my Netflix que.
Poseidon [Trailer]
Believe it or not, this is the first chance that I have had to look at the upcoming film, Poseidon. The trailer is very exciting, and the film appears to be Titanic, but faster and with less Celine Dion. Count me in!

That’s what I have for this week… Be sure to stop back to our homepage for reviews, news, and other tomfoolery…
