Trailer Talk: ‘Tiny Furniture’
— by RACHEL COYNE — No movie genre does quirky families and general life ennui better than small indie films created on a shoestring budget by little-known artists, so “Tiny Furniture” is definitely on the right track. Written, directed and starring comic writer Lena Dunham, “Tiny [...]

Trailer Talk: ‘Rio’
— by AMANDA KOEHLER — In a recent Trailer Talk for the CGI-film “Mars Needs Moms,” I wrote about how animated films just ain’t what they used to be when it comes to adult enjoyment. And although after watching the trailer for “Rio” I’m still not intere[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘The Beaver’
— by CHRIS HYATT — Let me begin by peremptorily answering the one question most of you may be thinking as you read this: No, I’m not high, and the only thing I’m under the influence of is caffeine. Mel Gibson is back. That’s right, Mel Gibson, Academy Award-winning[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Just Go With It’
— by ALEXA MILAN — Back in the days of “Happy Gilmore,” “The Wedding Singer” and “Big Daddy,” Adam Sandler’s movies were must-sees. But especially during the past few years, I’ve found his movies to be less and less watchable. His most rece[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’ (Teaser Version)
— by SHERICE ANTOINETTE — Darn you, Michael Bay! I swore to myself I wouldn’t watch another “Transformers” film because the last one was terrible. Abysmal. I wanted my $16 back (I watched it in IMAX). “Revenge of the Fallen” was so disappointing, not even the great Opti[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Thor at the Bus Stop’
— by JOSUE SANCHEZ — The plot for the independent film called “Thor at the Bus Stop” was almost all the information I could find for this movie. Yet, after watching the actual trailer for it — which we have embedded below — you will realize it doesn’t begin to cover all[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Death Race 2’
— by SEAN GERSKI — I never saw the Jason Statham version of “Death Race.” Sure, I thought about it. I mean, I like watching Statham blow stuff up as much as anyone. Yet, I still haven’t got around to checking it out. However, the one reason I even thought about watching[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Hop’ (Teaser Version)

Trailer Talk: ‘The Lincoln Lawyer’
— by ALLISON HIGGINBOTHAM — When I first saw the title “The Lincoln Lawyer” I thought the film was going to be about Abraham Lincoln’s days as a lawyer. I was really hoping to see an image of Matthew McConaughey with a cool hat and an impressive beard. Unfortunately, the trailer fo[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘Mars Needs Moms’
— by AMANDA KOEHLER — I remember the days when I used to look forward to new CGI movies coming out (think “Shrek” and “Toy Story”). Now, the plotlines for these films seem silly, and sometimes downright dumb — basically of no interest to an adult viewer. But[...]
Trailer Talk: ‘The Nutcracker in 3D’
— by RACHEL COYNE — When I first read there was a movie version of “The Nutcracker” being made in 3D, my initial response was to snipe, like the frustrated theater geek I am, “If you want to see ‘The Nutcracker’ in 3D, why don’t you see it how it’s meant to be seen: At [&he[...]
