SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR Trailer Is More Of The Same And That's A Good Thing

Stylistically, I enjoyed the hell out of the first SIN CITY movie. It was nothing groundbreaking, but I was in college and it just vibed well with me. The fact that this sequel is still happening is crazy to me. The movie had a long production cycle and it seemed to be one of those movie that would just end up getting cancelled. But good news! Thanks to Dimension Horror, we have a new trailer for movie. Check it out after the break.

To commemorate the end of what can only be described as one of the more important movie franchises in recent history, we will be doing something a little unusual. We will be posting short separate reviews here. Then, later on in the weekend, we will be posting a discussion that will encompass the movie in a more spoiler-y manner and in context of the entire series of movies.


On a more serious note, regarding the terrible news coming out of Aurora, Colorado, we offer our condolences to the victims of the heinous shooting. We don't deal with politics here much and now is not the time, but rather a time of respect for the loss of fellow fans that were lost in a senseless crime.

So here...we...go!

New International LOOPER Trailer

Hard to believe, but yes, there is hope after the summer season. Usually there is the lull until all the Oscar contenders come out, but not this year. Rian Johnson's LOOPER will be around to get us through the fall. We posted the initial trailer a couple months ago, but now the new international trailer has been released. 

Of course if you want to stay completely in the dark, all trailers should be avoided. Even director Rian Johnson said today on his twitter, "If you're already set on seeing Looper, I'd avoid any trailers from here on out. They don't ruin the movie, but they tip a few little things." So take that how you will. 

Check the trailer after the break!

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Trailer Drops! The Internet Freaks Out!

Javi here. Late last night, the Warner Brothers YouTube account posted the third trailer for the final Batman movie by director Christopher Nolan, THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. What's interesting about this trailer is that once again, Bruce Wayne and Batman are not really the focus of it. Instead, you have Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Anne Hathaway as John Blake and Selina Kyle taking precedence and we hear that Bane actually sounds pretty clear. In addition, the YouTube page confirms the name of Marion Cotillard's character, Miranda Tate. But you don't want to hear me talk about it. Hit the jump for the trailer.

LOOPER Trailer Drops!

Director Rian Johnson isn't exactly a household name. He's only made two feature films, BRICK and THE BROTHERS BLOOM, and has directed a couple of TV episodes from Breaking Bad and Terriers. However, that will probably change this fall.

His next film is LOOPER, a syfy time-travel movie. One aspect of Johnson that makes us here love him so much is he always seems to bring his own uniqueness to a film genre. BRICK was a film noir style set in a high school setting, and THE BROTHERS BLOOM was a con-man "period" piece. And now he is about to tackle science fiction. Yes please.

Check out the trailer after the jump.

In Javi Man-Crush News: Joseph Gordon-Levitt Will Make His Directorial Debut.

Javi here. As you guys should know, I'm a huge fan of Joseph Gordon-Levitt. He is a young(er) actor that has managed to always have interesting roles, and even while playing in hipster type movies like (500) DAYS OF SUMMER, he brings something great to the performances. He also created hitRECord, an awesome online creative collective where people openly remix and collaborate. Adding to his resume according to Deadline, will be directing his first full-length feature. Hit the jump for more info.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt's role in THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Revealed! (SPOILERS)

It's not secret that I'm such a fan of twitter's own @HitRecordJoe or Joseph Gordon-Levitt, as he is known in other circles. When I heard earlier that he would be coming to the final installment of the BATMAN saga by director Christopher Nolan, I was even more excited. And now we have word from Variety about who exactly he will be playing. In the interest of keeping people as spoiler free, I'll put his role below. The character itself cold lead to speculation about the plot of the movie so be warned.
