‘Up’ there with the best!
Pixar’s latest project is the spectacular story, Up. This film opens with a beautiful montage of a relationship building from childhood to old age. More

“I believe in our darkest hour the very qualities
which made us great will make us strong.”
Lovely looking independent CGI movie, in which humanity are the aggressors due to losing Earth and having no choices left, and sweet fluffy alien pacifists are about to get stomped by us. Apparently sharing the planet never occurred to us. Not sure whether it’ll be as dark as it potentially could be but the trailer looks stunning. More

Well it’s upon us finally. A film that has the potential to be breathtaking (for better or worse) it’s certainly one of the most anticipated movies of 2009 and it’s only March! Watchmen is out on Friday (6th March 2009) I don’t have anything particular to comment on it yet, I’m excited but trying to resist deciding anything before seeing it. The two cinematic trailers are over the jump. More

“…you’re willing to believe anything.”
Fabulous new trailer for British sci-fi film Franklyn which is coming out sometime in 2009 in the UK at least. Have heard little of it myself previously, but the trailer blew me away. More

It’s been a rubbish last few months for the Trek geeks left whimpering around in the remnants of a once loved franchise. First Majel Barrett (Nurse Chapel in the original show, Troi’s harpy-esque mother in The Next Generation and the computer voice in most of it’s on going sequels including the new upcoming Trek film, and of course Gene Roddenberry’s widow) passed away back in December.
And now Ricardo Montalban – more famous for his role in Fantasy Island – but immortalised as one of the most famous villains in Trek history, along with being in one of the only good Trek movies to date. At 88 he certainly had a good run, but it’s still rather rubbish as all deaths are. More

Slightly behind the times, given we’re just slipping into 2009 and the DVD was released back in October, but this gorgeous set of photography on Jeff Bridges’ site looks behind the scenes of Iron Man, with some great shots of the cast and costumes. More
