Here below the movie trailer of The Collector, an upcoming horror thriller movie directed by Marcus Dunstan who co-wrote the script with Patrick Melton:

THE COLLECTOR

A thief broke into this house,
but someone worse was already inside…

Plot:
“The Collector follows the story of handyman and ex-con Arkin, who aims to repay a debt to his ex-wife by robbing his new employer’s country home. Unfortunately for Arkin, a far worse enemy has already laid claim to the property – and the family. As the seconds tick down to midnight, Arkin becomes a reluctant hero trapped by a masked “Collector” in a maze of lethal invention – the Spanish Inquisition as imagined by Rube Goldberg – while trying to rescue the very family he came to rob.”

Both Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton have been working on the Saw movie series in the past. So the Collector movie promises some really twisted scenes!

You may watch below the movie trailer of An Education, an upcoming movie directed by Danish filmmaker Lone Scherfig and starring Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard. The film is based on Lynn Barber’s memoirs by British novelist Nick Hornby (who wrote About a boy).

AN EDUCATION

A girl beyond her years meets a man beyond his boundaries.

Sometimes an education isn’t by the book.

Plot synopsis:
“A coming-of-age story about a teenage girl in 1960s suburban London, and how her life changes with the arrival of a playboy nearly twice her age.”

Sounds like a nice story like only Europeans know how to do. The movie will reach US Shores on October 9, 2009.

Chris Columbus, the director behind the first two Harry Potter movies, is tackling the adaptation of Percy Jackson & The Olympians a series of novels written by Rick Riordan. Well, only the first book, The Lightning Thief, is being adapted for now, but if this first movie is a success, for sure sequels will follow. Here below the first official movie trailer of Percy Jackson and the Olympians The Lightning Thief:

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief

President’s day 2010

Some heroes are made and some are born of the Gods!

Plot:
“A young boy named Percy Jackson (Logan Lerman) discovers that he is the half-human son of the Greek god, Poseidon (Kevin McKidd), and embarks on a journey across modern-day America to save his mother (Catherine Keener), return Zeus’ (Sean Bean) stolen lightning bolt, and prevent a war between the gods.”

I’m all for this kind of fantasy movie but I just hope that they won’t be greedy and will first put all their energy on the Lightning Thief. Narnia didn’t really survive the hype and the series is now in limbo. So I hope that Director Chris Colombus does focus on this movie to make it as great as this first teaser trailer is promising before thinking about any sequel.

The movie Percy Jackson and the Olympians The Lightning Thief is starring Logan Lerman, Brandon T. Jackson, Alexandra Daddario, Jake Abel, Pierce Brosnan (as Chiron), Catherine Keener and Uma Thurman (as Medusa). The film is set for a release on February 12, 2010.

The movie Despicable Me is an upcoming 3D animated film directed by Pierre Coffin and Chris Renaud. The movie can boast the voice of Steve Carrel in the role of Gru, the machiavellian villain who wants to steal the Moon:

Plot:
“In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru (Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon.
Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad.

Looks like the movie Despicable Me won’t be much politically correct. Well, no real ground to take offense. I think that such funny stereotypes, as long as there is a clever plot behind, are something useful in animation because they make the characters more vivid and it’s easier to understand their personalities. Regarding the CGI behind Despicable Me: it may not look like state of the art CGI, but I still like it. Actually I think that art, voices and stereotypes are a good match that promise a quite funny and entertaining animated movie for 2010.

I went on the official site of Despicable Me (which is of course hosted at Despicable.me here), don’t know who’s singing, bu can’t get the little song out of my head:

Despicable Me!
Sign me up for the 3D animated movie Despicable Me!

And everyone wants a way out!

Previous Cemetery Junction trailer:

Plot:
“CEMETERY JUNCTION tells the funny, touching and universal story of being… it’s a 1970s-set comedy centered on three upstart professional men working at an insurance company.”

They’re quite mysterious about this project… Well, if Ralph Fiennes is in it, I suppose it means that Cemetery Junction will be a good movie.

At long last but not least, we may have a look to Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Cobra Commander / The Doctor in the upcoming live-action GI Joe movie:

GI Joe International Trailer

James McCullen aka Destro (portrayed by Christopher Eccleston)
Weapon Supplier
The arrogant, egotistical founder of MARS Industries is, like his ancestors, a brilliant designer of military weapons that he sells to the highest bidder. His greatest treasure is a metal mask that has been passed down through his family for generations

Cobra Commander aka the Doctor (portrayed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt)
Scientist
Devious brilliant leader of Cobra demands complete allegiance from his followers as he works toward his ultimate goal of controlling the world. COBRA COMMANDER hides a deadly secret few others know, just as his mask covers disfiguring damage from a fiery accident.

I’m not sure about who’s the real boss in the movie: is it the Doctor or James McCullen? Maybe this GI Joe movie shows the rise of the Doctor before he becomes Cobra Commander?
