2010 is the year of lovely entertainment in dark rooms filled with people. We have a hope that as time passes more worthwhile movies will be added to our watch list. Until then look below the jump <\/a>and fill your eyes with trailers… of the future!<\/p>\n


\nALICE IN WONDERLAND<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

What lay above this humble text is the international trailer for Tim Burton’s stroll through Wonderland<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One thing we noticed, for a movie about Alice there aren’t many full-on shots of her money-maker in Wonderland. The other thing we noticed, it looks positively delightful. Also, Helena Bonham-Carter makes the diminutive Red Queen strangely sexy. That’s all we have to say on that matter.<\/p>\n

And who doesn’t enjoy a warm pig belly under their aching feet?<\/p>\n

IRON MAN<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object><\/div>\n

We straight up admit to watching IM2 trailer<\/a> more than once. And every time watched was an experience of unashamed sheer pleasure.<\/p>\n

DAYBREAKERS<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

We first mentioned DAYBREAKERS <\/a>deep inside this Overload <\/a>back in October. It still has our attention. It’s a vampire planet, people. The exact thing to happen<\/a> if the bloodsuckers existed in reality. What’s not to like?<\/p>\n

KICK ASS<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

Another movie mentioned in the Tuesday Tease<\/a> of yesteryear(2009). Have a KICK-ASS<\/a> red band trailer featuring Hit-Girl and continue to marvel at Nic Cage digging deep to pull off a good performance. Considering his track record on this in the aughts, we consider this a 2010 miracle.<\/p>\n

PAUL<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

PAUL is one of the few projects Simon Pegg<\/a> and Nick Frost<\/a> created that does not include their “Spaced” director Edgar Wright<\/a>. Currently, there is no trailer for PAUL<\/a>. There is one rather hefty production blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BITCH SLAP<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

BITCH SLAP<\/a> ran all up and down the film festivals in the rest of the world last year. We noticed it in 2008<\/a>. Despite the middlin’ rating in IMDB<\/a>, we feel the need. The need for cheese. It provides all the 70s style sexsploitation with 21st century special FX that a growing boy needs. Lucky for us, it’s getting a limited run in the USA this year.<\/p>\n

HARRY POTTER: DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

You’re damn right we’re gonna be all up in those Deathly Hallows<\/a> come November. The movie Potterverse is coming to an end. Hopefully, it’ll hit a handful of the grand notes achieved in J K Rowling’s books.<\/p>\n

TRON LEGACY<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object><\/div>\n

We were there in the 80s when the first TRON<\/a> zapped The Dude<\/a> into cyberspace to buddy team-up with Captain Sheridan<\/a>. We’ll be there when this new TRON<\/a> sparks new future geek culture celebrities. Fingers crossed it’ll be a relevant thrill-ride for this day and age. <\/p>\n

SCOTT PILGRIM<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n

Blog One – Introduction – Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World<\/a> from Scott Pilgrim The Movie<\/a> on Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Scott Pilgrim meets the girl of his dreams. The catch is he must defeat her 7 evil ex-boyfriends in battle before she’s totally his. It’s all complicated romantic-comedy, fantasy fun<\/a> after that. We’re currently working through a lovely Xmas <\/a>gift of volumes 2-5 of the comic. The more we read, the more we wonder how Edgar Wright’s going to translate Bryan Lee O’Malley’<\/a>s wonderful insanity to the screen.<\/p>\n

To date, there is no trailer for the Scott Pilgrim movie. Unless you believe the random tweets of its director<\/a>.SCOTT PILGRIM<\/a> the movie has a generous production blog<\/a>. Edgar Wright the director has been keeping a daily photo blog<\/a> of the Pilgrim production. The Scott Pilgrim World LiveJournal<\/a>(yes, LJ’s still around) is worth a look. The only thing we’re unsure about is Michael Cera playing the main role. Time changes opinions and our confidence in Cera\/Pilgrim is now very low.<\/p>\n

INCEPTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/param><\/param><\/param><\/embed><\/object> <\/div>\n

Trailer B of the new Christopher Nolan<\/a> movie INCEPTION<\/a> clears up the ambiguities of the earlier teasers. It will be watched. Oh yes, it will be seen.<\/p>\n

Honorable Mentions<\/strong>
\nTHE LOSERS<\/a><\/strong>
\nThis Vertigo comic by Andy Diggle<\/a> and Jock<\/a> gets a film treatment. Zoe Salda\u00c3\u00b1a<\/a>‘s a cast member. Zoe Salda\u00c3\u00b1a!<\/p>\n

THE BORROWER ARRIETTY<\/strong>
\nBorrower Arrietty<\/a> is a Studio Ghibli<\/a> production. Life isn’t right without those guys exposing the world to their creative splendor.<\/p>\n

RUM DIARY<\/strong>
\nBased on the Hunter S Thompson<\/a> novel, Rum Diary<\/a> has Johnny Depp at the fore. This will be the second time Depp has stepped into Thompson’s words.<\/p>\n

GREEN HORNET<\/strong>
\nA none-fluffy Seth Rogan takes on the mantle of the Green Hornet<\/a>. That’s about the only thing interesting going on here.<\/p>\n

REBOOT<\/strong>
\nReBoot is one of our favorite cgi animated series from the 90s and REBOOT<\/a> is getting a film adaptation? The news of a film trilogy<\/a> is in the works. Rainmaker Animation<\/a> we don’t know who you are but we’re ready to love you. The shortest tease to ever excite geeks of a certain age can be found on Teaser Trailer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For even more movies that we omitted because the director turned out to be a hack<\/a> or there was just no interest in the thing at this time, check out ONTD’s Most Anticipated Movies of 2010 post<\/a>.<\/p>\n
