Aqua Teen Hunger Force Movie Trailer

(Quicktime Version)

Ok, how awesome is this movie going to be? Well, perhaps not awesome enough to get me to see it in theaters, but definitely awesome.

The problem with the Aqua Teen Hunger Force movie, for me, is that it looks like something that would be just as good on DVD. And I feel a little weird about paying good theater money to see a film with such obviously poor production values. Although I did pay to see the South Park movie in a big screen.

Still, I really think this film will be great. And I will see it, even if not in theaters.

The Grindhouse Trailers

(Quicktime Versions)

When I first heard about Grindhouse, I wondered how they would manage to make trailers for a movie that was actually two movies. As it turns out they decided to embrace the concept. Every trailer gives a quick explanation of what grindhouse means and then highlights a lot the fact that this a double feature and that Tarantino and Rodriguez are involved. Each movie also gets a bit of a mini trailer within the larger trailer.

Does it work? I think so. The trailers manage to explain to people the concept of the movie and make both of the features look exciting. Pounding on the fact that this is a Tarantino/Rodriguez project is also smart since this means something to many movie geeks.

My main worry is that the trailers could be catering a little too much to the movies core audience and because of that alienating the more mainstream audience a little. But I’m not sure this is the kind of movie that could ever have a broad appeal, so it’s probably not a problem.

Fake 300 Trailers

Apparently, there is much fun to be had with the 300 trailer.

For example, ever wondered what 300 might be like if it was rated PG? Well, wonder no more.


And here is one that answer that eternal question: could 300 be any gayer?
