Welcome back to the Movie Media column, featuring trailers, posters, and clips for upcoming films. Some are nice and fresh and some aren't. However, they all have something in common: for better or worse, they all caught my attention. If there is a poster or trailer you think I should check out, be sure to let me know.
This week's movie goodies include posters and trailers for a few upcoming summer hits, a couple of DVD releases, an inspirational sports film, a documentary, and more!
The Dark Knight - Poster
Another week and more promos for The Dark Knight. What is it? Another awesome poster. Fortunately, the movie is now here and we can move on to other endeavors (not that I didn't like sharing all this Bat-stuff).
The Tale of Despereaux - Stills, Trailer
This animated adventure is based on the award winning novel of the same name by Kate DiCamillo. It centers on a young mouse with over-sized ears named Despereaux who refuses to live life afraid, cowering in the walls. He dreams of adventure and eventually befriends a human, thus beginning his bigger than life adventure. I have to say that the trailer makes this film look rather cute; hopefully it will translate to a good film. The Tale of Despereaux has some star power in the voice cast including Matthew Broderick, Dustin Hoffman, Tony Hale, Kevin Kline, Tracy Ullman, Emma Watson, Sigourney Weaver, Christopher Lloyd, William H. Macy, and Stanley Tucci.
WarGames: The Dead Code - DVD Art, Trailer
Remember WarGames? I know I do. It was back in 1983 when the popular world was introduced to this realistic look at computer hacking. Well, maybe not completely realistic, but there was a definite grounding that felt real. Matthew Broderick played a young hacker who gets drawn into a game of thermonuclear war that turns out to be way too real. Now, twenty-five years later, we get a sequel, not a direct sequel, but a sequel that updates the story for current technology levels and the world situation (terrorist threat rather than nuclear). The trailer looks pretty good. Matt Lanter stars as the hacker, and coincidentally was born the same year the original was released.
