The Stockroom | Film Trailers
 
This is that nature of mine again. This newly-issued thread will yet again be another repository for a theme, now named and known to be for showcasing Film trailers. Any films, any series, new, old, kitch, fan-made, and whatver else you may have or know about; if you can share it, then share it here, why don't you?

Additionally, any comments about a particular trailer, film or franchise featured here is welcome to take part at any stage; I even encourage it. The only thing that I ask is to not share any random trailer, just to make yourself a new post. If you genuinely enjoyed it, and wish for fellow community members to also enjoy its contents, then, by all means. In a sense, by contributing here, you are imparting both starter knowledge and a recommendation, to whatever particular snippet of video you chose to display.

I do sincerely hope I've kept this descriptor short enough, and inviting enough, so that it won't just be me here, alone again, trying to appease myself, solely. Interaction and relation is a good thing, and I'll try to feature a little of everything so I can draw in almost anyone who has a passing fancy for moving pictures, and all the hundreds of sub-genres that fall into such a category.

"The Rig"
 
A vicious creature rises from the oceans depths and hunts down the crew
of an oil rig one by one. Trapped by a tropical storm, isolated hundreds of miles
from shore and cut off from communications, the crew struggles for survival.
Deep beneath the ocean, there are things that should not be disturbed...

From what sparse thing I've heard about the above, I believe it is an entirely fan-made
and produced short film created upon the basis of the comic character, Batman.
I've also heard it get some very good reviews, but I have not yet seen the film in its entirety.
Now that I've posted it, though, it does remind me that it was in my queue, so plus-one for
delayed reminders. Check HERE for more info on the project.

Dude - whoa. I love the concept of Flatland, but the original is amazingly sexist. I gotta see this new version. It might warp my 7 year old son's mind.

Not sure if this is in line with your intentions for this thread, Jet, but I'm sharing it because I can't hear or read the word trailer without this coming to mind. It's a little trailer anecdote.

A few years ago my friend and I were watching Enemy of the State on DVD when we both had the day off for some reason. We were already familiar with the film and just lazily enjoying it's expensive ridiculousness, which you can always depend on with these Bruckheimer productions. Each of us thought we knew it better than the other. Roughly halfway through a building explodes. Gene Hackman and Will Smith are driving away at top speed.

SMITH: "What the hell is happening?!"

HACKMAN: "I blew up the building!"

SMITH: "Why?!"

HACKMAN: "Because you made a phone call!"

Because you made a phone call...Even though I knew the film I didn't remember that line. My friend was like, "yeah, that line will be in the trailer". I disagreed. We argued about it for the rest of the film. It had become a big deal. We found the trailer in the special features. He was sure the line would be in the trailer, I was sure it wouldn't. As the trailer played I got more and more excited as the line didn't get said... the title came up and I was sure I'd won... I was getting cocky... starting to crow...

Oh dear. At the very last moment, as I was at the very brink of triumph, defeat twisted back around and smacked me in the mouth. It was as if the Balrog's whip had stretched out and yanked me into the abyss by my ankle. "Fly, you fool!"


Jetée 07-09-2010 04:04 PM

I always welcome discussion in any one of my meta-topics, oliver, so thank you for sharing the anecdotal reference and how it complies to the theme.

post-script:
Enemy of the State has been one of my favorite features for a long time now.
I still think the last pivotal scene of the film (read as: the shootout) is spectacular, and can be argued and debated alongside similar other scenes of tense-action/drama/violence, comparing their idiosyncrasies and context, and this one still stands out as a winner.

oliver9184 07-10-2010 02:56 AM

If I might digress slightly about Enemy of the State director Tony Scott: At his worst Tony Scott is far, far worse than brother Ridley (Revenge, Days of Thunder, Man on Fire) but at his best (Crimson Tide, glimpses of Enemy of the State, most of True Romance) he does suspense and smaller-scale action noticeably better: very, very well indeed, in fact. But I think his time was very definately the 1990s, when the world and everyone in it was happier and stupider. Ridley will carry on making expensive, overcooked, underwritten historical epics (and don't forget: films about Monopoly), while Tony tries harder and harder (but with less and less success: Domino, Deja Vu, The Taking of Pelham 123) to recreate the same sort of dumb violent action that was smelling a bit "off" ten years ago.

RZA makes a natural leap from loving the crap out of anything to do with
kung fu, to directing & starring in a low-budget, 70s-style kung fu feature
called Wu-Tang Vs. The Golden Phoenix (released date: TBD).
The hip hop icon says he made Golden Phoenix to prove to himself and Hollywood that he could be taken seriously as a director. He had some help from Eli Roth, who is billed as an executive producer for the film. The film also features several kung fu legends like Robert Tai, fight choreographer from the 1978 classic The Five Deadly Venoms. Golden Phoenix was made in the style of 1970’s “Kung Fu Theater” – grainy shots, crazy sound effects and lots of dubbing. RZA is well known for his kung fu obsession; just listen to any Wu-Tang album. Now he’s taken that vast knowledge of the genre to create “a world where everyone fights…and they’re all fighting for one thing – the Wu Tang weapon.
Watch the official trailer above. An extended Red Band trailer can be seen HERE.

It kind of makes you think if cinema is cyclical again (and that the 80s didn't have enough bad films on the subject of video games, that one laid dormant long enough to eek out 30 years later and turn into this trailer, starring little George Michael Bluth)

oliver9184 07-18-2010 09:47 AM

I've seen that Scott Pilgrim trailer a few times and everything about it makes me completely sure that I would hate to watch it. Little George Michael has transformed from a cute smart adolescent into a big adult irritant. I'm sure he has a use as an adult actor but nobody has found it yet.

Another former cute kid that nobody has found use for as an adult is Haley Joel Osment. I thought there was a trailer out for his upcoming film Sex Ed this but I was mistaken: here's the synopsis (from THR via chud.com) instead (sorry Jet this was supposed to be a quick poke at Michael Cera but it's got a bit off topic now):

Osment plays "a college graduate who dreams of teaching high school Algebra but due to budget restraints, ends up teaching sexual education, despite being a virgin. He discovers an unlikely mentor in a blues bar, a ruthless enemy in the local PTA, and a gorgeous Polish girl for whom English is a distant second language."

In somewhat the same vein as your previous post, oliver, this next feature isn't a "typical" trailer, as I have no accompanying snippet video featurette to show, but is news and an "insider preview" of what you might find and see from an ordinary trailer, though just with words, no montage.

The Walking Dead is probably one of the greatest comic books of the last decade,
so it was no surprise when AMC picked it up and decided to make a TV show out
of the '70s series. The Walking Dead follows the story of a group of that must band
together in order to survive a zombie apocalypse. Sure the idea itself sounds cliche
and anything George A. Romero has already created, but it’s so much more than that.
The Walking Dead focuses more about the entire aspect of survival, than the
zombies themselves. Sure they’re still a huge part of the comic and upcoming show,
but The Walking Dead focuses more on the human beings and their sanity as they
go through this new hell on earth.

First set photo of AMC’s "The Walking Dead"! Many of the people who have read
the comics should know what is happening in this set picture. I don’t want to spoil it,
but it’s actually a very touching moment in the comic and gives you a very great
feel for Rick Grimes' character.

I was going to give this its own thread but then I remembered about this one. I hope people still look in here because I want as many people as possible to see this: trailer for microbudgeted yet epic-looking sci-fi/horror film Monsters.



Looks like it could be really special: a Cloverfield/The Mist/I Am Legend road movie with, hopefully, real emotional resonance.

The first trailer for Kenneth Branagh’s live-action adaptation of the classic Marvel comic book series Thor,

tagline: Californication Season 4:
Things are going to get worse before they get better for Hank Moody in a new season of Californication.

A fragile, anxious boy, 12-year-old Oskar is regularly bullied by his
stronger classmates but never strikes back. The lonely boys wish
for a friend seems to comes true when he meets Eli, also 12, who
moves in next door to him. But Elis arrival coincides with a series
of gruesome deaths and attacks. Though Oskar realizes that she's
a vampire, his friendship with her is stronger than his fear...


Swedish filmmaker Tomas Alfredson weaves friendship, rejection and loyalty into a disturbing, darkly atmospheric, yet unexpectedly tender tableau of adolescence.

The feature is based on the best-selling novel by John Ajvide Lindqvist, which the U.K. press qualified as "reminiscent of Stephen King at his best."

The campaign for Star Trek (2009) was as compelling and successful as any I can remember in my lifetime. I was hooked from the first tease even though I hadn't ever been interested in the franchise. When the magnificent third trailer came out I must have watched it forty times or more. I still sometimes watch this trailer! Textbook example of a film's buzz campaign and marketing outclassing the actual product. The music, I think, is what does the trick: music I spent the whole movie waiting for that never came.

Why does the sharktopus roar like a lion?

Anyway, here's what Eric Roberts was doing 25 years ago:

^ Eric Roberts, 29 in 1985, explaining how much Sharktopus means to him.

Jetée 08-16-2010 03:36 PM

Wow. It's amazing how much this Eric Roberts remind me of the Scarecrow from Batman Begins; is there any relation there? I can barely them apart (in their different eras, same age appeal).


Just so this post doesn't end with but a question, I'll provide the trailer to it, hoping whomever the actor playing that pesky Scarecrow makes a cameo within it.


oliver9184 08-17-2010 11:18 AM

Here's The Scarecrow/Jonathan Crane (Cillian Murphy) from Batman Begins:
http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/a...g?t=1282070185

There is some resemblance between the Runaway Train Eric Roberts and the Batman Begins Cillian Murphy. They were the same age (29).

Here's a picture of Eric Roberts playing Salvatore Maroni in The Dark Knight - looking similar to his character from Sharktopus. Will Cillian Murphy look like this 25 years hence?
http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/a...f?t=1282070185

(The Scarecrow was also in The Dark Knight but only briefly and I don't know if he shared scenes with Maroni.)

A slight digression which might be of interest: here's a picture of a young Julia Roberts, aged 21 in 1987 for Mystic Pizza, and Emma Roberts (19 now). They are Eric Roberts's sister and daughter respectively.
http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/a...g?t=1282071435

Lastly a trailer: Eric Roberts again in It's My Party. Save for his very welcome appearance at the end of Spun this is the campest I can remember seeing him. And he does do camp very, very well. What a champ!

Jetée 08-17-2010 12:52 PM

This guy is creating his own mini-Hollywood (via family and face resemblances), and I never even knew his name. How bizarre, yet cool.
Thanks for expanding on the thought, oliver; it was very informative.
