New ‘Tron Legacy’ Trailer Spikes Level Of Interest In Movie

Being honest here, while there was a lot of buzz about a new Tron movie, since the clip was shown about 2-3 years back, I always felt that this was either 1.) Never going to make it to release; or 2.) Going to be a small time movie, of little story line or interest. This is honestly the first trailer that I have seen of the movie that disproves both points. The movie has a set release date with Disney releasing the movie in 3D (thanks Avatar for the more expensive tickets) and IMAX 3D, and there looks like there will actually be a really cool setting with a decent plot behind the movie. I know I’ve marked the date in my Google Calendar.

New Iron Man 2 Trailer Is Rocking My World

It’s hard to put into words how excited I am to see how awesome this movie can be. Oh, and Audi R8.

‘Legend of the Guardians’ Is Like Happy Feet…But With Owls…

I don’t know how I feel about Legend of the Guardians. Done by the sam epeople who did  Happy Feet, I thought that movie was awesome because it combines penguins and amazing song+dance sequences, this movie is missing that extra touch that I really enjoyed.

Alice In The Wonderland Looks Like It’s Going To Be a Fantastic Trip…

I Have a Feeling That I Am Going To Like “Robin Hood”

Epic director Ridley Scott is back at it with his former movie Gladiator’s star, Russel Crowe, in his latest movie, Robin Hood. A much grittier version than Disney’s rendition, and more serious than Mel Brooks envisioning, this movie stars Russel Crowe as Robin Hood (obviously), and Cate Blanchett as Lady Marian, this movie is supposed to look behind the fairy tale of Robin Hood to the story of Sir Robin Hood of Locksley, Earl of Huntington, who Robin Hood is based on. I really enjoyed Gladiator, but didn’t enjoy Scott’s Kingdom of Heaven as much. I got the feeling that he made it too similar to Gladiator, and was just cashing in on some of the things people enjoyed with his first movie. So all I can do is hope that he doesn’t repeat it with this movie, because I don’t know about you, but I love the Robin Hood character, and will be quite upset if he manages to ruin this movie.

‘Kick-Ass’ Looks Set To Be Funny And Cool

A movie of ordinary superheros. Nothing ground-breaking, but the way it’s set up looks to make it a fun but action-packed movie to watch. A part of me is a bit excited to see this, if not on the big screen then definitely once it is out on DVD.

Jinni Tries To Recommend What Movie You Should Watch

Don’t know what to watch tonight? Check out Jinni then. Using something they are calling Movie Genome, Jinni sets up attributes to movies and TV shows, and then determines what you may like based on different keywords or even what mood you are in. Having played around with it for a bit, I am liking it quite a bit. It’s got a pretty cool interface, and a simple way to rate movies you have seen or don’t think you would be interested in. The entire system is a bit similar to Pandora, where that tries to figure out what sort of music you like, this tries to figure out what movies/TV shows you like. If you want to read more about it, check out TechCrunch’s extensive write-up.
