1. “Date Night” is a comedy featuring Tina Fey (“30 Rock”) and Steve Carell (“The Office”). They try to revive their marriage by going out on a date. Hilarity ensues after they are mistaken for another married couple who owe people money. If, like me, the comedic veterans aren’t enough to convince you to watch the movie, “Date Night” also stars rapper Common, Mila Kunis (“That ‘7os Show”), Mark Wahlberg (“Four Brothers”) and James Franco (“Pineapple Express”).

2. “Did You Hear About the Morgans?” also centers on a marriage on the rocks and a married couple on the run. This time around, though, Hugh Grant (“Notting Hill”) and Sarah Jessica Parker (“Sex and City”)  are placed in the witness protection program after seeing a murder. I’ve seen this trailer in theaters several times and every time, someone reacts to the last part of the trailer. Indeed, the laughs start once they relocate to Wyoming …

3. “Kick Ass” follows newcomer Aaron Johnson as he decides to become a superhero even though he has no powers. The tone of the film is similar to the humor in several Owen Wilson movies, such as “The Darjeeling Limited.” Christopher Mintz-Plasse, of “Superbad” fame, also stars. Johnson can also be seen in the John Lennon-film, “Nowhere Boy.” Its trailer is over here.

4. Acclaimed actor James McAvoy can next be seen in “The Last Station,” which focuses on the life of famed author Leo Tolstoy (Christopher Plummer). The trailer doesn’t reveal much else, but the film does have a 7.3 star rating on IMDb.com. The film’s early release is supposedly a ploy to secure Plummer an Oscar nomination in next year’s weak Best Actor race. McAvoy’s real-life wife, Anne Marie Duff, as well as Oscar favorites Helen Mirren and Paul Giamatti co-star.

5. Focus Features is set to release “Babies,” a documentary which chronicles one year in the lives of different newborns around the world, namely Tokyo, San Francisco, Mongolia and Namibia.

Edward Norton, Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Robert Pattinson, Vanessa Hudgens, “Toy Story 3,” romantic comedies (Amy Adams! Nicholas Sparks!), potential Oscar nominees (George Clooney! Emily Blunt!) and more after the jump.

6. Hollywood takes another stab at “Beauty and the Beast” with the adaptation of Alex Flinn’s novel, “Beastly.” The teaser trailer is so abrupt that I’m not excited to see it in theaters. Relative unknown Alex Pettyfer and Vanessa Hudgens (“High School Musical”) star.

7. “Season of the Witch” reteams Nicolas Cage with “Gone in 60 Seconds” director, Dominic Sena. This heart-pounding action movie takes us with a band of knights who are tasked with moving a powerful witch to a monastery. Ron Perlman from “Hellboy” co-stars.

8. Amanda Seyfried (“Mamma Mia”) sure knows how to pick movies — at least, chick flicks that I want to see. First, there was Nicholas Sparks’s “Dear John.” Now, there’s “Letters to Juliet.” Seyfried stars as a girl who’s engaged to Gael Garcia Bernal (“Science of Sleep”) but goes on an adventure with Christopher Egan (“Eragon”) and Vanessa Redgrave after she finds Redgrave’s letter to a long lost love.

IMDb.com states that Hugh Dancy was originally cast in Bernal’s role but dropped out, which is a shame. Anyone who’s seen him in “The Jane Austen Book Club” knows that Dancy would have been perfect in this movie albeit in Egan’s role. Oh, well. Cue Taylor Swift’s “Love Story.”

9. Noah Baumbach (“The Squid and the Whale”) once again gifts us with his zing-damn-oh snap (!) dialogue in “Greenberg.” Ben Stiller tries his hand at drama as a man in a mid-life crisis. Jennifer Jason Leigh (“Single White Female”) and Rhys Ifans (to be seen in “Harry Potter 7″) round out the cast.

10. “Crazy Heart” is another film with an earlier-than-scheduled release date. Again, the movie studio is trying to nab its star, Jeff Bridges, a Best Actor nod. Bridges (“Iron Man”) stars as a country music star who’s down on his luck until his path crosses with a journalist (Maggie Gyllenhaal).

11. According to IMDb.com, “Remember Me” is up by 658 percent in popularity this week. The most probable reason? Robert Pattinson (“Twilight”) is the star. He is joined by Pierce Brosnan (“James Bond”), Chris Cooper (“The Kingdom”) and Emilie de Ravin (“Lost”).

12. In “Leaves of Grass,” Edward Norton plays twin brothers who plot to kill their small town’s drug lord. The supporting cast includes Susan Sarandon (“Stepmom”) and Keri Russell (“August Rush”).

13. “Extraordinary Measures” is based on the true story of John and Aileen Crowley who race to find a cure for their dying child. Brendan Fraser (“The Mummy”), Russell (“Felicity”) and Harrison Ford (“Indiana Jones”) star.

14. “In Ireland, women can propose to men on the 29th of February.” This is the premise of “Leap Year,” in which Amy Adams (“Enchanted”) takes it upon herself to propose to her longtime boyfriend. Fate intervenes when she lands in Wales instead and runs into Matthew Goode (“Chasing Liberty”).

15. In “Grown Ups,” five childhood friends reunite after 30 years. The movie’s cast is a who’s who of comedy, namely David Spade (“The Benchwarmers”), Chris Rock (“Down to Earth”), Adam Sandler (“Spanglish”), Kevin James (“Hitch”), Rob Schneider (“Hot Chick”), Maya Rudolph (“Away We Go”), Salma Hayek (“Frida”) and Maria Bello (“Coyote Ugly”).

16. After failing to impress the girl of his dreams, Michael Cera (“Superbad”) decides to rebel in the comedy, “Youth in Revolt.” Justin Long (“Accepted”) and Zach Galifianakis (“The Hangover”) also star in the movie. Trailer no.1 and trailer no. 2 follow:

17. Soon there won’t be another Sparks’s novel to film, and the world as we know it will come to an end. “The Last Song” is Hollywood’s latest try at the author’s romantic novels. Miley Cyrus (“Hannah Montana”) stars as a rebellious teenager who, along with her younger brother, is sent to spend the summer with her estranged dad. Cyrus, also a musical prodigy, falls in love and makes amends with her father.

I guess that means two things. 1) We can look forward to Cyrus-filled soundtrack. 2) Supposedly, the studio thought Mandy Moore in two Sparks’s adaptations would have been too much. Nonetheless, Greg Kinnear (“Little Miss Sunshine”) and Kelly Preston (“Jerry Maguire”) lend the movie some credibility.

18. Maybe you’ve heard of James Cameron’s (“Titanic”) latest venture, “Avatar.” An adventure in another world and another time pits  human soldiers against an entirely new species. Sam Worthington (“Terminator: Salvation”), Sigourney Weaver (“Alien”), Zoe Saldana (“Star Trek”) and Michelle Rodriguez (“Girl Fight”) star.

19. It’s just a teaser trailer, but “Clash of the Titans” looks pretty amazing. Whoever created the score is some kind of genius. Liam Neeson (Batman Begins”), Ralph Fiennes (“Harry Potter”) and Worthington  are all part of the remake.

20. Catch the “Toy Story 3″ teaser and full trailers below:

21. Emily Blunt is “The Young Victoria.” From the looks of the trailer, Blunt (“The Devil Wears Prada”) will give another powerhouse performance as Queen Victoria. She is paired with Rupert Friend (“Pride and Prejudice”) as her Prince Albert. The ensemble cast includes Paul Bettany (“The Da Vinci Code”) and Jim Broadbent (“The Chronicles of Narnia”).

22. Clooney may have cinched another Oscar nomination with his performance in “Up in the Air.” In fact, director Jason Reitman (“Juno”), actresses Anna Kendrick (“Twilight”) and Vera Farmiga (“The Departed”) all have Oscar buzz surrounding them. Clooney is the guy that companies hire to travel all over the globe and fire people for them.

The film was originally meant to be a satire like Reitman’s “Thank You for Not Smoking,” but the recession called for a revamping of the movie. The first trailer below tells you more about the story, but the second trailer is by far the better one. Fasten your seatbelts …

Personally, I’m looking forward to “Up in the Air,” “The Young Victoria,” “Leap Year” and “Letters to Juliet” although I’d probably watch some, such as “Avatar” and “Did You Hear About the Morgans?” if my friends want to see them. What about you? Sound off in the comments!

Trailer:

Não sei se você sabe disso, mas o YouTube tem algumas frescuras na hora de incorporar vídeos em blogs e sites. A incorporação do vídeo, através de um código-link, permite que você, digamos, puxe o vídeo para o seu blog ou site sem a necessidade (bem trabalhosa) de fazer downloads ou algum tipo de carregamento.

O novo trailer de Avatar já saiu por aí, não é uma divulgação nova, mas o problema é que a incorporação desse vídeo legendado foi desativada, pelo menos nos quais procuramos. As versões sem legenda estão lá, de boa. Mas como somos brasileiros analfabetos na língua inglesa, e como uma boa parte dos brazucas também são, é nosso dever trazer essa opção de vídeo com legenda para o blog. Mas foi difícil encontrar.

Mas não desistimos tão fácil e apesar do WordPress também ter a filhadaputagem de ferrar com a vida do blogueiro se ele quiser postar vídeos de outro lugar que não seja do YouTube, foi necessário buscar ajuda em páginas e mais páginas na internet para resolver este problema.

Isso é até possível chamar de revolução da informação. Mas fica para outra postagem e pensamentos.

A questão é que, apesar do atraso, o mais recente trailer de Avatar, novo filme de James Cameron após Titanic, chega ao Feijoada LEGENDADO!

Você pode muito bem ver o trailer por aí, no YouTube principalmente. Não estamos preocupados com isso. A verdade é que para cada tipo de barreira na Internet, é criado atalhos para provar que esses imbecis que acreditam possuir o direito de limitar a livre navegação de internautas estão na verdade, limitando a si mesmos.

Mas em todo caso, para aqueles que insistem em impedir a incorporação de vídeos no YouTube, apenas um comunicado: vão para a puta que o pariu!!!

Empieza la recta final para esta película, y con ella toda la artillería pesada en lo que a material de promoción se refiere. Reciente mente se ha confirmado la duración oficial de la película, 150 minutos del mejor CGI hecho hasta la fecha.

A continuación os dejo diversos videos en los que podemos ver más sobre este acontecimiento cinematográfico.

This fourth entry in THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS franchise reunites the original stars: Michelle Rodriguez, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, and of course the bad dude himself, Vin Diesel. Needless to… This fourth entry in THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS franchise reunites the original stars: Michelle Rodriguez, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, and of course the bad dude himself, Vin Diesel. Needless to say, there’s going to be a lot of speed and demolition, especially in the fantastic opening truck hijack executed at amazing speeds by Dominic (Diesel) and his sexy partner in crime, Letty (Rodriguez). When Letty gets killed, it’s revenge time, with the path of the bad guy leading Dominic back across the border to Los Angeles (where he’s still wanted by the law) and into a high-stakes street race in which he’s teamed up with his old nemesis, undercover fed Brian O’Conner (Walker). As in the original, Brewster makes a foxy love interest for Walker (she’s Dom’s kid sister), but there’s not much time for kissing: there’s races to be won, huge accidents to cause, and shady smuggling plots to foil. Fans of the series should be too busy digging the NO2-powered action to notice if there’s anything missing in the storyline, which caterwauls along with gleeful abandon and disregard for logic, sanity, and speed limits. Directed with a sure hand by Justin Lin (TOKYO DRIFT), FAST & FURIOUS features loads of hot babes, and Diesel is as ripped, raging, and gravel-voiced deadpan as ever.

Avatar is the story of an ex-Marine who finds himself thrust into hostilities on an alien planet filled with exotic life forms. As an Avatar, a human mind in an alien body, he finds himself torn between two worlds, in a desperate fight for his own survival and that of the indigenous people. More than ten years in the making, Avatar marks Cameron’s return to feature directing since helming 1997’s Titanic, the highest grossing film of all time and winner of eleven Oscars® including Best Picture. WETA Digital, renowned for its work in The Lord of the Rings Trilogy and King Kong, will incorporate new intuitive CGI technologies to transform the environments and characters into photorealistic 3D imagery that will transport the audience into the alien world rich with imaginative vistas, creatures and characters

Starring: Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Stephen Lang, Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Rodriguez
Director: James Cameron
Screenwriter: James Cameron
Producer: James Cameron, Jon Landau

QUE TAL AMIGOS,EN ESTA OPORTUNIDAD LOS INVITAMOS A DISFRUTAR CON DOS AFICHES QUE HAN SALIDO DE ”AVATAR”.  ESTOS SON FRANCESES,VEAMOS……

Nuevo video que nos trae IGN.com en el que los involucrados en el film nos explican detalles del mundo creado por James Cameron. Esta bien que la película haya tenido su secretismo hasta más bien hace pocos meses, pero que ahora nos bombardeen casi con un video diario…

Tout le monde attend le nouveau film de James Cameron, Avatar, qui sort le 16 décembre prochain. Nous à GQ, on note que le pape de la superproduction (Terminator, Abyss, Titanic) a beaucoup fait évoluer l’image de la femme sexy. Le casting de son nouveau film confirmant son goût immodéré pour les créatures athlétiques à mâchoire de cow-boy.
S.P.

1. Michelle Rodriguez, qui joue dans Avatar.

2. Sigourney Weaver la star d’Alien, le retour (réalisé par James Cameron) qu’on retrouve dans Avatar.

3. Linda Hamilton, son ex-femme qui campe Sarah Connor dans Terminator 1 & 2.

4. Kathryn Bigelow, la réalisatrice la plus “couillu(e)” d’Hollywood (Point Break, Démineurs) qui est son autre ex-femme.

Nueva imagen de Neytiri, el nativo de Pandora que interpreta la actriz Zoe Saldana, a la que pudimos ver este verano en “Star Trek” interpretando a una joven Nyota Uhura.

Y el póster final francés, el cual no me llama mucho la atención ya que no soy muy partidario de los pósters en los que aparecen medias caras.

Ya solo queda un mes para el estreno de la ultima película de James Cameron, aquella con la que nos promete una vez vista comenzar con una nueva vida, con la que ya nada volverá a ser lo mismo cinematográficamente hablando, con la cual el 19 de Diciembre pasara a denominarse Día 1 D.A. (Día 1 Después de Avatar) y así sucesivamente… bueno, bueno, dejemos todo eso para cuando este vista la película.

La verdad que por los avances tiene una pinta estupenda y el resultado logrado con los personajes humanos es asombroso, hay planos en los que es imposible distinguir si son CGI o reales, cosa que con los nativos no me sucede, que a pesar de ser una especia ficticia no termina de convencerme mucho el resultado final.

The official Avatar YouTube channel posted several really short cast interviews.  I’ve listed the Latino actors’ ones below for your enjoyment.
