I realize, after watching this Amazing Spider-Man 2 trailer, that it's been way too long since we've had a good dose of Andrew Garfield. When I watch him as Spider-man, I'm basically just twiddling my thumbs through the scenes where he's in costume (uniform? didn't mean to emasculate superheroes at large there) so that we can get back to him being in either a t-shirt or a pea coat. His real superpower is owning those looks like nobody's biz.
Now, I do have one complaint about the trailer: NOT ENOUGH EMMA STONE. Trailer, you are trying to distract us with Andrew and his hair and... what was I saying? Oh, right. There better be more Emma in the next one. It's bad enough that Shailene Woodley got totally cut out of the movie. Don't skimp on the Stone!
Take a look, and start getting psyched for May (May 2, the release date, that is, not Aunt May—Aunt May looks pretty stressed, per usual).
We know we’ve been on the Anne Hathaway tip for awhile now (That hair!
That sweater! Dem teeth!) but we especially felt protective of the lady
when some would-be fans and critics started ragging on her about her vocals from the Les Miserables trailer. (We all saw the featurette! They sing those songs live in order that their voices break with emotion like that!) We especially want to rep Hathaway now that we got a taste of Russell Crowe‘s singing in the new Les Miz trailer that dropped today. It’s noticeably different than say, Hugh Jackman‘s or Amanda Seyfried‘s pipes. It’s not Pierce Brosnan in Mama Mia! bad…but it’s questionable at best. Luckily the new trailer also has some delicious shots of Sacha Baron Cohen and Helen Bonham Carter
as the fabulously greasy Thenadiers, so there’s a lot to love. And
really, we love Russell Crowe too! We’ve had a crush on him since Gladiator,
his beard looks great and we want to make-out with that giant hat he
gets to wear. We just might not love his shout-singing as much as some
other performer’s vocal contributions. Like, say, one Ms. Anne
Hathaway’s, for example. Anne Hathaway is going to blow everyone way as
Fantine! Mark our words!
CBS Films released a sneak-peak preview for their new sex comedy, The To-Do List, starring non-other than Parks and Recreation funny gal Aubrey Plaza.
But the trailer got me thinking... what a good idea! While I probably
wouldn't make one on my own, it is fun to set sex goals with a partner
of new positions, locations, or other fun things we want to incorporate.
It's a great way to give yourself something to look forward to and keep you from going back to the same routine.
And that there is pretty much all the Superman you're getting in this sh!t. The clean laundry blowing in the wind, Americana doggies and the adorable Henry Cavill playing Superman working undercover on Wicked Tuna. As a friend said - "nothing happens, and then he flies." Er, here they are. Kevin Costner does the voice-over for the first one. There's an alternate version with Russell Crowe under it. I guess it depends on which voice you want to fap (pardon the lingo hehe) to? They're both pretty boring..
Here’s a new teaser trailer for Season 2 of Game Of Thrones. It’s only 47 seconds long and the season doesn’t start til frickin’ APRIL, so it is, in fact, about as teaserie as a teaser trailer can get.
Season 2 Is Coming…
UGGGGHHH – April??? So we have to suffer through a long, barren, Thrones-less winter before getting to enjoy more episodes? How ironic.
Here’s the trailer for “Too Cute! Baby Sloths”, an upcoming accurately-titled documentary on Animal Planet about a Sloth Sanctuary (Slothtuary) in Costa Rica. It’s basically a building where a bunch of sloths are constantly crawling around very slowly and looking tired, so you should pretty much just go set your DVR right now (actually you have some time – they are very slow).
I VOTE FOR THE SLOTH AT 0:34!!! If we’re voting for sloths. I am.
Also, the music in the trailer is the EXACT music I hear in my head any time I see a sloth. That or “Drop It Like It’s Sloth”, a song about shaking your ass super slowly.
The trailer for the new Three Stooges movie has hit the web, and amongst the trailer’s obligatory barrage of slapstick fighting and iPhone jokes comes a cameo appearance we weren’t expecting but in retrospect completely should have.
In the latest edition of “What Is Anything Anymore?”, here’s Snooki getting eye-gouged by Moe.
This is the actual poster for the movie New Year’s Eve, from the people who brought you Valentine’s Day (no way!):
That’s it? Only EIGHTEEN celebrities featured on the poster? I don’t go to see ensemble romantic comedies unless there’s 20 POSTER STARS MINIMUM — so lose that stupid champagne and the hugging people and get Channing Tatum and Oliver Platt in there ASAP (the S is for STARS and the P is for POSTER).
So how does a film FINALLY bring together the talents of Abigail Breslin, Hector Elizondo, Lea Michele, Robert De Niro, and Ludacris? Credit the film’s innovative Casting Director:
Here’s the trailer for American Reunion, the next American Pie installment where the entire original cast gets back together to have stuff happen to them while they’re masturb*te :P
Sooo, Pie generation – people planning on seeing this? I definitely will :)
Cool. So, I’m not entirely sure how to react to this. Literally the only thought going through my head right now is “That sure is the Avengers trailer.” I’m confident the movie will be good and I’m definitely excited to see it!! Excited much :D
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 hits theaters on November 18th, 2011. In the highly anticipated next chapter of the blockbuster The Twilight Saga, the newfound married bliss of Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) is cut short when a series of betrayals and misfortunes threatens to destroy their world.
After their wedding, Bella and Edward travel to Rio de Janeiro for their honeymoon, where they finally give in to their passions. Bella soon discovers she is pregnant, and during a nearly fatal childbirth, Edward finally fulfills her wish to become immortal. But the arrival of their remarkable daughter, Renesmee, sets in motion a perilous chain of events that pits the Cullens and their allies against the Volturi, the fearsome council of vampire leaders, setting the stage for an all-out battle.
The suspenseful and deeply romantic Breaking Dawn continues the epic tale of supernatural fantasy and passionate love that has made The Twilight Saga a worldwide phenomenon. I love it!! How can this film be more exciting? :)
Here is the poster for the upcoming movie Ides of March starring Ryan Gosling and George Clooney:
The trailer for the film — which is ahead — is your typical twisty-turny guys in suits sleeping with their interns power hungry White House political thriller. From what my rat brain could gather from this 9 minute long trailer, Ides of March is like Dave without the “I once caught a fish THIS BIG” scene.
And for old times’ sake, here’s the trailer of the political thriller movie , Dave:
Here’s the trailer for Adam Sandler’s next movie, Jack And Jill. It’s called “Jack And Jill” because Adam Sandler plays a character named Jack whose crazy sister comes to visit and her name is Jill and she’s also played by Adam Sandler.
Coolness.. Watch it make $150 million in its opening weekend:)
In just seven days Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 premieres in Manila. The good news is that there's a new clip of the movie available. While much of the promotional material for the new movie (especially the posters) have focused on the epic Battle of Hogwarts, this clip features the heroes in Bellatrix Lestrange's Gringotts vault and the quest to find the remaining horcruxes.
Here I think I got all the spells, charms, enchantments, curses, jinxes and all the other incantations.. For your reference and entertainment. Enjoy! =D

(Antonin Dolohov's Curse)
Description: This curse causes serious internal injury, but shows no external symptoms. It is described as cast with "a slashing motion", sending out a streak of purple flames. It is not nonverbal, though Harry could not hear it because Hermione had used the silencing charm Silencio on Dolohov before.
Aparecium
Pronunciation:/ˌæpəˈriːsi.əm/ap-ə-ree-see-əm
Description: This spell makes invisible ink appear.
Description: Causes instant, painless death to whomever the curse hits. There is no countercurse or method of blocking this spell; however, if someone sacrifices their life for someone else, the person who was saved will not encounter any adverse effects of any curses by the specific attacker (e.g. when Lily Potter sacrificed her life for Harry Potter at Voldemort's hands, Harry became immune to curses cast by Voldemort). One of the three Unforgivable Curses.

Pronunciation:/ˈkruːsi.oʊ/krew-see-oh
Description: Inflicts unbearable pain on the recipient of the curse. The effects of the curse depend upon the desires and emotions of the character – to produce the "excruciating" pain implied by the name, one must (according to Bellatrix Lestrange) desire to cause pain purely for its own sake or for fulfilment. The extreme pain inflicted by the curse when cast so – without any apparent evidence of physical harm – makes it uniquely suited as a form of torture. This pain has included the sensations of flaming bones and a head that was split open by crude methods without sedation. One of the three Unforgivable Curses.

Description: Conjures an incarnation of the caster's innermost positive feelings, such as joy, hope, or the desire to survive, known as a Patronus. A Patronus is conjured as a protector, and is a weapon rather than a predator of souls: Patronuses shield their conjurors from Dementors or Lethifolds, and can even drive them away. A Patronus "cannot feel despair, as real humans can, so Dementors can't hurt it." The conjured Patronus protects the witch or wizard that summoned it, obeys his or her commands, and fades away shortly after it is no longer required. When conjured, a Patronus appears silvery, ethereal, and semi-transparent. Improperly formed Patronuses range from momentary formless bursts of silvery mist, to poorly-defined forms that are easily defeated or quickly dissipate on their own. A full-fledged (or corporeal) Patronus takes on a fixed animal form that is often significant to the witch or wizard casting the charm. Patronuses summoned by a particular person have been known to change, although this has only been observed in the books in cases of unrequited love, such as Tonks' and Snape's respective Patronuses. In these cases, the new Patronus takes on the form of an animal associated with the love interest. Rowling has said in online interviews that Snape was the only Death Eater to be able to produce a Patronus. According to her this is 'because a Patronus is used against things that the Death Eaters generally generate, or fight alongside. They would not need Patronuses'.Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the Charm is also the only known defensive spell against Lethifolds. According to
Expelliarmus (Disarming Charm)
Pronunciation:/ɛksˌpɛliˈɑrməs/eks-pel-ee-ar-məs
Description: Produces a jet of scarlet light. This spell is used to disarm another wizard, typically by causing the victim's wand to fly out of reach. It can also throw the target backwards when enough power is put into it. If it hits or gets close to another spell and if powerful enough it will deflect the spell, causing it to hit its caster. As demonstrated in Prisoner of Azkaban, simultaneous use of this spell by multiple witches or wizards on a single person can throw the wizard back with much greater force.
Expulso
Pronunciation:/ɛkˈspʊlsoʊ/ek-spuul-soh
Description: A spell that causes an object to explode. The force of the explosion may depend on the intent of the caster.
Ferula
Pronunciation:/ˈfɛrʊlə/ferr-uul-ə

The extent to which the spell's specific action can be controlled by the caster is not made clear. If this spell does bind, it does eventually wear off as stated in Deathly Hallows.
Imperio (Imperius Curse)
Pronunciation:/ɪmˈpɪəri.oʊ/im-peer-ee-oh
Description: Causes the victim of the curse to obey the spoken/unspoken commands of the caster. The experience of being controlled by this curse is described as a complete, wonderful release from any sense of responsibility or worry over one's actions, at the price of one's free will. Resisting the effect of the curse is possible, however, and several individuals have been able to successfully overcome it, including Harry and both of the Crouches, who learn to resist the curse after being subjected to its effects for an extended period. Harry describes the feeling of being the caster as controlling a marionette through a wand (although Harry's particular experience is suspect due to his lack of commitment to casting Unforgivable Curses).
