Also special appearances by a Hobbit, a hip-hopper, and Van Wilder, as Dominic Monaghan, Will.i.Am, and Ryan Reynolds play Bolt, John Wraith, and Deadpool respectively.

SFX artist Yoshihiro Nishimura and screenwriter Kengo Kaji (Tokyo Gore Police, Eko Eko Azark 3) are at it again, this time with a tale of a female Samurai doll who exacts vengeance via her eleven deadly weapons, concealed, naturally, within her flesh. Expect another dose of ultra-weird body modifications, projectile flesh, and ultraviolent absurdity.
Check out the trailer (complete with subtitles) below:

New Jim Jarmusch! Time to celebrate! Isaach De Bankole, Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton, and a revenge plotline? I can’t wait. I’m feeling a bit tired tonight, so here’s the plot description from Quicktime.com:
The new movie from filmmaker Jim Jarmusch (”Broken Flowers,” “Down by Law”) is set in the striking and varied landscapes of contemporary Spain (both urban and otherwise). The location shoot there united the writer/director with acclaimed cinematographer Christopher Doyle (”In the Mood for Love,” “Paranoid Park”). Isaach De Bankole stars in the lead role for Mr. Jarmusch; this …

As the title suggests, a collection of awesome 80’s Sci-Fi/Fantasy trailers I found on youtube. Plus, a bonus video or two. Check ‘em out.

I remember trying to get people to see Donnie Darko with me while it was in its theatrical run in the city. “What? A movie about a talking bunny and time travel? With Patrick Swayze and the Bubble Boy? No thanks.” You can lead a horse to water, but can’t force them to drink, right?
Anyways, now that everyone and their mother has seen Donnie Darko, I’m sure you’ll actually want to check this one out. It’s an end of the world tale starring The Rock, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Justin Timberlake, …

Yep. It’s that time again. A nice selection of trailers for you to peruse. Check-check em out.
Kantoku – Banzai! . New Takeshi Kitano! Need I say more? Trailer.
The Brave One. New Jodie Foster film. I can’t get this one to play at the moment, but you can try, here.
Gegege no Kitarou.  Kids film featuring Yokai and a main character with a really tall head. Trailer here. Official site. Our screener review.
Heartbreak Kid. Another remake, this time of a Neil Simon film. But, it does reunite Ben Stiller and the Farrelly brothers. Trailer.
Rise: Blood Hunter. Lucy …

It’s time for another trailer rundown.
Nana 2 . The next installment of the rock drama starring Japanese pop star Mika Nakashima. I haven’t yet seen Nana 1, but Nakashima’s actually a pretty good singer, so I am somewhat interested. Trailer here.
Smoking Aces . The latest in hitmen comedy, Smoking Aces looks about as fun as it is violent. The film’s being hyped enough as it is at other sites, so I’ll just leave it at that. Trailer here.
Curse of the Golden Flower . Yet another trailer. I still maintain that …

Kris and I first discovered Katsuhito Ishii with Sharkskin Man and Peach Hip Girl and Party 7 a few years back. Most of you probably know him from the Anime segment in Kill Bill Vol. 1. But, however you may know him, it’s obvious the guy has a wealth of talent, and is surely one director to keep an eye on in the coming years. The trailer for his latest film, Funky Forest: The First Contact, is now up and man, does it look crazy. Lots of cool talent in …

Okay, so it’s not brand new, but it’s darn funny. Check it out here.

The trailer for the new Leonard Cohen documentary is up. Check it out here.

The Ghibli Blog has the trailer for the new Miyazaki endeavor, The Legend of Earthsea. Check it out here.

Finally a documentary about something other than politics or how cool aging skaters/surfers/etc were back in the old days. Yes, it’s a documentary about something important. Check out the trailer here.

This looks very very cool. We’re running into some strange problems with embedding the trailer on the page, so go here and check it out.

So another Mission Impossible 3 trailer is up. To be honest the film looks pretty bad. The dialogue is wince-inducingly terrible, and with J.J. Abrams at the helm I’m afraid it will be about as interesting as watching paint dry. And then there’s the pseudo-physics. I used to complain about people flying too much, but that’s nothing compared to people flying sideways from explosions occurring directly behind them. The film does have one saving grace in the form of Maggie Q. But then again you could just drop $4 at …

The official Rocky site is down, so check it out on YouTube. Hopefully this will erase the painful memory of Rocky 5. Blech!

Wow, so Intermedia and C2 film group, those responsible for releasing the colonic mass that was T3: Rise of the Machines, are set to unleash their latest bomb, Basic Instinct 2. The trailer is up, and damn does Sharon Stone look ….old?
You know, it’s really a shame what happened to her. Her downward spiral started with The Quick and the Dead, then she ruined her hair, then she suffered an embolysm, then she agreed to Catwoman. The experience has been more than taxing on her, and she now looks a …

This trailer for Silent Hill is tres cool. I don’t have much time to write about it, but it looks like they’ve got monsters from the first and second game in there, and they look damn good (No Nemesis crappyness). I don’t know about the lead actress, but I think Avary’s script and Gans direction should make this one a cut above the other videogame films out there.
Check out the new trailer here.
