Anchorman 2 - Its Official

www.tips-fb.com
Destiny may well have been an old, old, wooden ship but there was never any doubt in my mind that a sequel to Anchorman would not get made.

I really couldn't be more excited, especially since Steve Carell and Paul Rudd have signed on and the fact Ferrell and McKay are busy writing the script as we speak. Today we spell "redemption"... R-O-N.

Safety Not Guaranteed Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
I don't know what it is but I really, really liked the trailer for Safety Not Guaranteed. For some reason it kind of echoed back to films like Explorers and IT. Don't ask, it just did.

This looks like it could be a real hit once word of mouth gets around, and I'm here to help spread that.

Total Recall Teaser Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
I'm about to shock you. For those that know me, you'll think I've lost it. Gone potty. Loopy. Insane. But its the truth.

Yes, the teaser trailer for the remake of Total Recall is out, and you know what, I like it. I'll reserve full judgement until the full trailer hits later in the week but off the bat, yeah, not too bad.

The Dictator Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
There was a time when I thought Sacha Baron Cohen was a comedy genius. Ali G, Borat, both great creations. But then I watched Bruno.

And now I've seen the trailer for The Dictator. I don't know, in some parts it looks great, in others, it looks like a sad, unfunny Adam Sandler vehicle. And these days, that's as bad as it gets.

Kubrick's Personal Copy Of The Shining

www.tips-fb.com
Stephen King adaptations are rife throughout the movie world, but the most celebrated of all is probably the most stripped down.

Stanley Kubrick's The Shining is one of the greatest horror films ever made. King hated it, Kubrick didn't think much of the book so, as a movie geek, seeing something like this is just a joy.

Jesus Henry Christ Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
Independent film, a low budget film by a small studio. This is generally the definition of an Indie movie and one that encapsulate the whole essence of the Jesus Henry Christ trailer.

Its kind of a good thing, but why do they always make these trailers the same? I'd like to see something a little different in an indie trailer but this seems to be the trend. Hey Ho.

The (Totally) Phantom Menace

www.tips-fb.com
What is it the kids like to type these days? ROFL. LOL. LOTR? Well I suppose they all apply to the following clip even though, to fans of the original trilogy, it's still cripplingly sad to see.

Gotta love the text-to-speech guy, he should narrate everything. EVERYTHING!

Chernobyl Diaries Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
Its been noted many times before on the blog that I like a good scary movie. Its also been noted that very few do actually scare me.

Now, I know I'm nails, so it should come as no surprise that I find the new trailer for Chernobyl Diaries about as scary as a sponge. This film may work for some but for me, its doubtful.

Snow White & The Huntsman Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
I may be getting soft in my old age but this latest trailer for Snow White and The Huntsman has me intrigued. I'd even go as far as saying that I was quite entertained by it.

I read Snow White to my little girl every other night, but I don't think I'd read her this version. God imagine if Christopher Walken read it. Worst. Bedtime. Ever.

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
I'm not sold on this yet. For some reason it just reminds me too much of Stephen Sommers Van Helsing. That isn't a good thing.

Vampires have got a bad rap lately, what with all this Twilight marlarkey, so you never know this might actually deliver. Either that or they'll sit and sulk for 90mins. And four movies.

Review: The Muppets (U) ★★★★

www.tips-fb.com
Plot
With the help of three fans, The Muppets must reunite to save their old theater from a greedy oil tycoon.

Review
When was the last time you watched a film that made you feel really good about yourself.

New Prometheus Trailer Lands

www.tips-fb.com
Wow. Just Wow. Glimpses of Prometheus have been few and far between, but now we get our first full, in your face, trailer.

The result is something quite spectacular and, in case you already didn't know, confirms this as the must see movie of 2012.

Iron Sky Theatrical Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
For those that visit the site regularly (and I know I've let you down recently), you'll know that I've been following a film call Iron Sky.

Well the theatrical trailer is now out and available for our viewing pleasure. Initial verdict? A tad more lavish than I'd expected, but still looks good. C'mon you Nazi schwines!

Donald Sutherland

www.tips-fb.com
I look back on Donald Sutherland's career and think why on earth has there not been more recognition for his work. Mash, Klute, The Eagle Has Landed, Animal House, Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and of course Don't Look Now.

He was cool back in the day and he's still cool now. Give this man more credible work. Oh and remember teaching is just a way to pay the bills until you finish your novel.

Moonrise Kingdom Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
An open post to Wes Anderson. Dear Wes. Please make more films. You are a genius. Sincerely KaihoroTimes.

I just love this trailer. Has Wes Anderson made a bad film? Ever? The answer your looking for, is no.

Now I'm off out back to find a tree to chop down. Topless.

Walken Reads Where The Wild Things Are

www.tips-fb.com
This is a children's book. Read by Christopher Walken.

I may never sleep again.

Dark Shadows Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
Well that was unusual. Uncle Tim's Dark Shadows looks like it could be a really good, enjoyable film. I expect no less Mr Burton.

Loving the dead-pan humour, the outlandish over-the-top characters and the general flow of the whole thing. Oh and the 70's vibe really hits home.

Just remember, Disco is NOT dead, Disco is LIFE!

On The Road Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
Jack Kerouac. On The Road. That should be justification enough for you to watch and enjoy the trailer embedded below just as I did.

Sam Riley, Garrett Hedlund, Kristen Stewart, Amy Adams, Kirsten Dunst, Alice Braga and Elizabeth Moss, with support from Viggo Mortensen and Steve Buscemi. Just brilliant. Although I have my eye on you Miss Stewart.

[REC] Genesis Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
Loved [REC]. Didn't think much of [REC] 2. Couldn't care less about the american remakes. So here's the Spanish [REC] Genesis. Thoughts?

Well there's Weddings, Zombies, Chainsaws and more gore than you shake a severed arm at. What's not to love?

Battleship Trailer

www.tips-fb.com
B1. You sunk my battleship. With Rihanna on it. What? Oh and Liam Neeson. Eh? But at least my flying spaceship and Halo guy is still alive. WTF?

Exactly. I have no idea what's going on here, all I know is that after watching this trailer I now have a splitting headache.
