Alllllright, folks! Robert Laff here, bringing you another week of pure movie magic... or crap. This time I am bringing you three trailers! That's right, Thor, Sucker Punch, and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. (you can find the links in the names below)
First on the list, the next in line to the Avenger's movie, Thor. Now, I have to admit, at first I wasn't as excited about this movie as I am with many others in the Marvel Universe, but after seeing the trailer, it doesn't look half bad! Given, I'm a bit confused on why Thor is being portrayed as the bad son, but that will probably be shown in the movie (also, Loki seems normal... what's up with that?). Anywho, The action sequences are fairly impressive, tho the hammer is smaller than I imagined. The graphics don't look really good, especially for a Marvel movie (way to go, Disney!). And, of course, they appeared to have done their homework when it comes to casting, at least in my eyes they did. I'm gonna have to give Thor a 8.5 out of 10.
Next up is a movie that doesn't seem to be getting too much press, Sucker Punch. For those of you who don't know, This flick is about Babydoll's (that's right... her name is Babydoll) life after her parents died. Apparently, she can't stand reality while living in an orphanage, or something, so she tries to escape. The only way to escape, is with her friends and power of imagination. I know, I know, it sounds kinda gay, but guys, once you see this trailer... lets just say if you just had a vasectomy that you'd be poppin stitches. There are a lot of martial arts, a dragon, for some reason, and lots and lots of guns. Now, given, I'm not normally much of a gun guy, but hey, they make it look hot! That being said, it looks like this flick could be pretty confusing, in fact it mostly looks like it would make a bad ass video game. I'm still extremely excited about this one, but I think I'll have to give it a 6.5 out of 10, due to the randomness of the flow.
Finally, yet another movie with rum jokes. That's right, kids, Johnny Depp is back with Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides! *holds for cheering*... what, no cheering? Well, in all honesty, I don't blame ya. This go around, our favorite alcoholic pirate is off to find, ironically enough, the fountain of youth. I say ironic, mainly because the running jokes in these movies are becoming old and predictable. However, I do have to admit I did laugh when Penelope Cruz implied that Jack gets a boner every time he sees her. That being said, The movie looks, well, decent. Nothing really goes "wow" to me in the trailer. Sure there are zombies, but in a way that was already used in the first movie. The only 3 things that make this different is the fact that there is no Will and Elizabeth, Blackbeard is in it as the villain (only a matter of time, considering they already used Davy Jones... though they never showed his locker...), and there are friggin mermaids. With all this in mind, I give the movie, based on what I've seen, a 6 out of 10. Everything seems pretty normal for the franchise, other than the mermaids, which everyone knows can be pretty hot.
So there you have it folks! A fallen god, a hot and crazy chick, and another drunken Jack (sorry... Captain Jack).
