Trailer Catch All

New Ghostbusters trailer.

Still not funny but I guess it is a better trailer.

Got some chuckles out of me this time but that crowd surfing part pfththtkdjf

It's a better trailer, but only further convinces me that they completely missed what made the first Ghostbusters so great.

I'm kind of getting that as well considering they're even rebooting some of the jokes.

Spoiler:

The whole "mass hysteria" thing I imagine isn't the entire joke, but that sneak at Stay Puft has me incredibly disappointed. I was hoping they wouldn't try and repeat that moment, or would at least do something different, but it seems like their idea was to have a more evil melty looking version of Stay Puft.

Lots of spoilers in that trailer.

Agreed. I get the strong sense that this movie doesn't know what it wants to be at all.

I know not everyone can stand him, but Movie Bob, they guy that hated Pixels and BvS, also makes a longer series called "really that good" and elaborates quite a bit about what makes some movies really, really great.

Anyhow, here's his take on the original Ghostbusters movie:

I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Yeah, I really like his "Really that Good" series.

And trailer(s)...

You might know the film's co-producers.

In truth, it's already been brought up that the original Ghostbusters trailer wasn't all that great. Few trailers at the time were. And if modern marketers were to cut a trailer for Ghostbusters, they'd probably put in a lot of content such as the Stay Puft Marshmallow man (Hell, the original trailer may have even had it. Of all the things I could wipe from my memory, that moment goes right alongside the Alien chestburster scene so I can experience it for the first time).

It could very well be that the new Ghostbusters is gut-bustingly (pun sort of intended?) hilarious! It's just that the trailer doesn't convince me. However, the trailers for Rise of the Planet of the Apes looked like sh*t, and it turned out to be a surprisingly good movie.

More of a clip but some new TMNT.

CBS debuts first trailers for MacGyver, Training Day
* Lordy this looks terrible.

1. wtf is up with that hair.
2. I think they went for the ancient "it's so bad, it's good" method of doing tv.

Is that the guy from X-Men? Cyclops' brother?

TMNT 2 clip

I think it's in some sort of pre-mullet state.

Re: Star Trek

Did they really just destroy the Enterprise? How original!

Hashtag-Not-My-Star-Trek but if they're gonna make it an action movie they got a guy with style.

This one has me curious, I'll confess.

Shoulder-length hair is just pre-man-bun. I'm betting he'll have it up in a man bun within the first 2 or 3 episodes.

I am over the Enterprise getting blown up. It was an effective shock in Star Trek III, but at this point the ship has been blown up more times than I can recall.

Also, that trailer seems to be a direct reaction to all the Star Trek: Fast and Furious jokes.

It feels more Star Trek than the last garbage fire of a movie at least. Blowing up the Enterprise yet again is a bit tired, but the rest looks reasonably decent.

Couple that with Justin Lin, hopefully bringing the FAMILY stuff from the Fast and Furious franchise, and the absence of the stink of Kurzman and Orci and I'm cautiously optimistic.

I think someone needs to make a Star Trek movie where the Enterprise just blows up again and again for various silly reasons which get explained with techno-babble. Then at the end it should go back in time and destroy the version of it at the beginning of the movie, thus creating a paradox in which the events of the movie never really happened.

So you want a feature length version of the TNG episode Cause and Effect, I take it?

Beauty and the Beast.

Will they appropriately portray the witch who cursed Beast as the villain?

My feelings exactly. I have yet to see any of the live action adaptations, whether it is direct (Cinderella) or a retelling (Maleficient). I just can't bring myself to care enough to spend the time to watch them.

I think there is something to be said about animation as a storytelling platform. Everything looks like it belongs, even with the Disney history of recycling. The "live action" has some much out of place CGI that it might have been simpler to have done everything as a computer animated cartoon.
