Welcome to the latest edition of Movie Media, where you will find trailers, posters, and stills from upcoming films. Some are nice and fresh, some aren't; you will have to look and make up your own mind. If there is a poster or trailer you think I should check
out, be sure to let me know, and I will see what I can do. This week brings trailers and posters for a couple of new thrillers, a new fantasy,and a new buddy action comedy, and a sequel no less.

Trailer: Enchanted

Disney has a new fantasy coming out this Fall targeted at the pre-teen girl demographic. It is called Enchanted, and the trailer is, dare I say it, cute. The trailer begins by giving us some clips of past Disney hits like The Lion King, Toy Story, and even Fantasia. It all leads up to the story of an animated princess who is sent into the real world by an evil witch. Following close behind are the Prince and a chipmunk sidekick to rescue her. I doubt it will be as classic as the opening clips, but it looks like it could be a bit of fun, maybe. Amy Adams, James Marsden, and Susan Sarandon star in the film directed by Kevin Lima (Tarzan) and written by Bill Kelly (Premonition).

Poster, Trailer: Rush Hour 3

I like the Rush Hour movies. I am a big fan of Jackie Chan. I suspect that I will enjoy this third outing, but it seems like it is coming a bit late. I mean, it's been six years since the second film, which also happens to be the last thing that Chris Tucker has done. Okay, the trailer looks pretty funny, although nothing groundbreaking. It takes the next step in the formula: first movie take Chan out of his element, second movie takes Tucker out of his element, third movie takes them both out of their respective elements. This means that part four will have the duo in space. Okay, enough of that. The trailer looks funny, but the poster is mind numbingly generic. Anyone else agree?

Poster, Stills, Trailer: I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry

Are you ready for this one? Honestly, when I first heard about it last year I thought it was a joke. I also think that different names were being tossed around, I believe that Will Smith was attached at one point. In any case, the movie is nearly upon us and the stars are Adam Sandler and Kevin James. This is James' first big shot at big screen fame, following his good notices for his supporting role in Hitch. I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry actually looks like it could be funny, no classic, but still funny. A number of new stills have come out, a bunch of them are below, along with the poster and trailer. The movie opens on July 20, 2007. It was directed by Dennis Dugan (The Benchwarmers) from a script by Barry Fanaro, Alexander Payne (Sideways) & Jim Taylor.
