Trailer Park: Walking With the Wolves
Filed under: Drama, Horror, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Trailer Trash
The Wolfman
This reimagining of the classic Universal monster flick looks gorgeous. Benicio Del Toro plays the tortured Lawrence Talbot, a role originated by Lon Chaney Jr., and Anthony Hopkins plays Lawrence's father, a character that was originally played by Claude Rains. Hugo Weaving is his slithery best as Detective Aberline. Here's hoping there's no full moon when this comes out on February 10.

There's lots to see in this one. James Cameron's science fiction tale of an epic struggle on an alien world is on the way and all I could think through this trailer was how awesome it's going to look in 3D. Plan your Christmas shopping accordingly because this will be out on December 18.
Bronson
A young thrill seeker tries to knock over a Post Office robbery and his original seven year sentence leads to thirty-four years behind bars. During his stay in the slammer a new fame seeking personality emerges. Supposedly based on a true story, this will be out in limited release in October.
Still Walking
Fifteen years after a Japanese boy dies saving another child's life his family reunites for a memorial service. This low key but compelling looking drama has no U.S. release info just now.
My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done
Produced by David Lynch and directed by Werner Herzog, this film is loosely based on a true story about a man whose experiences led him to murder his own mother. The Lynch/Herzog collaboration is enough to get me in the door. No U.S. release info yet.

im sorry but am i the only one that thinks avatar looks silly? I really do not see this movie making back its ridiculously huge budget. The story line just sounds boring by itself.
It reminds me of the golden compass while in the end it made a profit it was still technically a bomb. the problem is avatar has a larger budget to make back.
just my 2 cents

Avatar looks absolutely amazing and breathtaking! I'm definetely going to see it when it comes out. As for the Wolfman, well, the style seemed interesting but at the same time kinda added to the cheesiness of it. I think I'll stick with Lon Chaney Jr.

Yeah, AVATAR looks silly. I love James Cameron's movies, but he's going to really have to work hard to sell me the story of giant blue Jar-Jars. I've no doubt there will be be outstanding and beautiful things in there, but I'm a bit wary.
