trailer trash - Blue Valentine

I've been a fan of Ryan Gosling since " Michelle Williams since Dawson's & now that the Motion Picture Association of America has slapped it with an NC-17 rating on it. I've been eagerly awaiting any news and the release of this film since it premiered at The Cannes Film Festival in May and has been dubbed as one of the most "utterly devastating completely believable marriage drama[s]," which be unappealing to most people, but I for some reason can't get enough of them.

trailer trash - Black Swan

This film isn't due for release until December 1st, but it's already garnering accolades from The Venice International and The Telluride Film Festival as potential Oscar bait (along with being compared to a modern day Single White Female.) While Darren Aronofsky and Natalie Portman's talents are undeniable, and Aronofsky didn't have to try to hard to coax a brilliant and haunting performance out of her as witnessed in the trailer (posted below;) I am most excited to see Vincent Cassel (French superstar and the baddie from Oceans 12) let loose on the American public. It will also be interesting to see how manically maternal Barbara Hershey will be and if Mila Kunis can top herself from her greatest role as ever.

trailer trash - Nine

The sheer excitement I have for this film cannot be expressed in words because it's a combination of a myriad of my favorite things, music, fashion, spectacle and undeniably epic talent. I've been on a pretty serious Daniel Day-Lewis kick lately (I've watched There Will Be Blood, Gangs of New York, The Age of Innocence in the past 2 weeks alone.) This movie is total Oscar Bait, and between everyone involved in it's production there's over half a dozen Oscars between them, so this movie is obviously a contender this awards season.

trailer trash - Amelia

Amelia Earhart has captured our imaginations and has fascinated us for decades, so of course it was inevitable that a bid-budget Oscar bait movie would be made about her. I hope the movie is as fantastic as all the outfits.

trailer trash - The Informant

I'm in love with Soderbergh & almost everything he does. But this movie looks stellar and I can't wait for it to come out.

Summer Movie List

With Memorial Day upon us, summmer is officially here adn my second favorite time of the year for movies. While Summer generally pales in comparison to the oscar bait the Winter provides, in terms of caliber and quality of films, I still love to watch shit blow up and that's what summer is all about. With Wolverine and Star Trek out of the way the field is wide open for me to waste a bunch of money/be thoroughly entertained. I figured if I wrote out what flicks were coming out in advance it would save me some time, money and also give you guys an idea of what's coming out when too (you can check out trailers by clicking on the titles.)


Terminator:Salvation While I’ve been a fan of Christian Bale for over a decade, Anton Yelchin is the high school boyfriend I always wanted and have been drooling over Sam Worthington for a number of weeks now, the 'Common factor' (the fact that the every movie the rapper is in turns out shitty) was 1 of my major drawbacks and not that McG has duped me 1 time too many into loving the craptastic masterpieces he helms (Fastlane and Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle anyone?) But I decided a few days ago my appreciation of ridiculous explosions and hot guys would win out.

UP (5/29) If the trailer for this movie doesn't make you smile- even just on the inside- you have no doul

Hangover (6/5) Quite possibly THE comedy I'm most excited for. (I've had a crush on Bradley Cooper since Alias & am pretty sure it's not gonna fade anytime soon.)

Moon (6/12 limited) I'd watch Sam Rockwell in almost anything...but preferably Charlie's Angels over and over and over and over and over again...

Transformers (6/24) I used to be a robot, gotta support the Autobots.

Public Enemies (7/1) Starring Johnny Depp & Christian Bale and directed by Michael Mann, there's no doubt I'm seeing this movie

Bruno (7/10)

Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince (7/15)

500 Days of Summer (7/17)

Funny People (7/31) Eric Bana and Leslie Mann are the main reasons why I want to catch this.

Julie & Julia (8/7)

District 9 (8/14) There's just something I find really intriguing about this film

Paper Heart (8/14)

Taking Woodstock 8/14

Inglorious Basterds (8/21) Tarantino + Pitt + WWII flick + gratuitous violence + Pitt's
ridiculous stache = me being there for a 12:00AM showing

The Boat That Rocked (8/28)

Flicks I'm still on the fence about
Land of the Lost (6/5) while I love Danny McBride and Anna Friel, I still have the iconic craptastic quality of the original show burned into my memory. Plus Will Ferrell already duped me into seeing him in "Bewitched" & there's only so many shitty "reimagings" I'm willing to pay to sit through.

Taking of Pelham 123 (6/15) I think it's the Travolta as villain factor that's not really pushing me to check this out.

Year One (6/19)

GI Joe (8/7)

Want to but will prob wait for DVD
How To Be (4/29) I love an endearing indie,especially if it's musically related, but I'm pretty sure this wasn't and won't be released in The States.

Away We Go (6/5 limited) The only reason this movie fell into this category is because it probably won't be released here, even though it shot for a week last summer in Morningside.

The Proposal (6/19) I love Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds but am trying to avoid romantic comedies

Cheri (6/26) Only because this probably won't be released anywhere near me

Ugly Truth (7/24) [See what I wrote about "The Proposal" and replace SB & RR wuth Gerard Butler] plus I'm not really a fan of Katherine Heigl

Post Grad (8/21) I spent almost a 3rd of my life watching Gilmore Girls, but don't need to watch a movie about an existence similar to the one I'm currently living.

trailer trash- Changeling

"Changeling" is the new Clint Eastwood drama starring Angelina Jolie. the trailer below will give you a better idea of the plot, but the main reason i'm posting this is because the film co-stars "Burn Notice's" Jeffrey Donovan! this is an incredibly high profile for him, considering Clint's films that happen to be serious family focused dramas are usually Oscar bait (see: Mystic River, Million Dollar Baby) & the movie is a period piece so we all get to get transported to a different time, which is usually pretty exciting.
