Hier nach dem Teaser im Sommer der erste richtige Trailer zu Hunger Games, der amerikanisierten Variante von Battle Royale. Mir sieht das nach wie vor zu glattgebügelt aus, könnte aber wie bei Starship Troopers auch Absicht sein, obwohl ich das einem Regisseur wie Gary Ross nicht zutraue, der Mann hat immerhin Lassie und Seabiscuit verbrochen. Hier der Plot:
The Hunger Games takes place in an unidentified future time period after the destruction of North America, in a nation known as Panem. Panem consists of a wealthy Capitol and twelve surrounding, poorer districts. District 12, where the book begins, is located in the coal-rich region that was formerly Appalachia.
As punishment for a previous rebellion against the Capitol, every year, one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 from each district are selected by lottery and forced to participate in the Hunger Games, a televised event in which the participants, or “tributes,” must fight to the death in a dangerous, outdoor arena, controlled by the Capitol, until only one remains. The story follows fatherless 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, a girl from District 12, who volunteers for the 74th Games in place of her younger sister, Primrose. Also participating from District 12 is Peeta Mellark, a boy whom Katniss knows from school and who once gave her bread when her family was starving.

Hier der Trailer zu „The Iron Lady“, Polit-Portrait mit Meryl Streep um das Leben der Thatcher. Ich bin kein Fan beider Damen, aber den hier werde ich mir definitiv ansehen. Inszeniert von Phyllida Lloyd, die schon bei Mamma Mia! Regie führte, von dem ich als sowohl Abba- als auch Musical-Hasser sagen muss: Sehr, sehr sympathischer Film. Die Lloyd macht also immer Filme mit und über zwei Dinge, die ich gar nicht leiden kann und schafft es, daraus was tolles zu machen. Das nenne ich mal’n Talent, doh!
THE IRON LADY is a surprising and intimate portrait of Margaret Thatcher (Meryl Streep), the first and only female Prime Minister of The United Kingdom. One of the 20th century’s most famous and influential women, Thatcher came from nowhere to smash through barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male dominated world.
Die Daily Mail (schon wieder!) hat ein Interview mit der Streep:
‘I still don’t agree with a lot of her policies,’ said Streep. ‘But I feel she believed in them and that they came from an honest conviction, and that she wasn’t a cosmetic politician just changing make-up to suit the times. She stuck to what she believed in, and that’s a hard thing to do.
‘She’s still an incredibly divisive figure, but you miss her clarity today. It was all very clear and up front, and I loved that eagerness to mix it up and to make it about ideas.’
Of modern politicians, Streep added: ‘Today it’s all about feelings. You know, “How do I come off?” and, “Does this seem OK?”.

Netter Trailer zur Märchen-Adaption „Snow White and the Huntsman“ mit Twilight-Gschmusi Kristen Stewart. Werde ich mir ansehen, ich bin aber auch anfällig für Märchen und solchen Fantasy-Quatsch.
In the epic action-adventure Snow White and the Huntsman, Kristen Stewart (Twilight) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen (Oscar(r) winner Charlize Theron) out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the young woman threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth, Thor) dispatched to kill her. Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) joins the cast as the prince long enchanted by Snow White’s beauty and power. The breathtaking new vision of the legendary tale is from Joe Roth, the producer of Alice in Wonderland, producer Sam Mercer (The Sixth Sense) and acclaimed commercial director and state-of-the-art visualist Rupert Sanders.

Trailer zum nächsten Actionding mit Jason Statham. Der hangelt sich ja auch an so ziemlich allen Action-Klischees entlang, die es gibt. Ich bin gespannt, wann der Mann seine Comedy-Phase beginnt um dann ein paar Jahre später sein „Action-Comeback“ zu feiern.
A second-rate cage fighter on the mixed martial arts circuit, Luke Wright lives a numbing life of routine beatings and chump change… until the day he blows a rigged fight. Wanting to make an example of him, the Russian Mafia murders his family and banishes him from his life forever, leaving Luke to wander the streets of New York destitute, haunted by guilt, and tormented by the knowledge that he will always be watched, and anyone he develops a relationship with will also be killed.
But when he witnesses a frightened twelve-year-old Chinese girl, Mei, being pursued by the same gangsters who killed his wife, Luke impulsively jumps to action and straight into the heart of a deadly high-stakes war. Mei, he discovers, is no ordinary girl, but an orphaned math prodigy forced to work for the Triads as a “counter.” He discovers she holds in her memory a priceless numerical code that the Triads, the Russian mob and a corrupt faction of the NYPD will kill for.
Realizing he’s the only person Mei can trust, Luke tears a swath through the city’s brutal underworld to save an innocent girlÂs life and perhaps even redeem his own.

Hier der Trailer zu „Corman’s World: Exploits of a Hollywood Rebel“, Doku über das Werk Roger Cormans. Für mich ein absolutes Must Watch.
CORMAN’S WORLD: EXPLOITS OF A HOLLYWOOD REBEL is a tantalizing and star-studded tribute to Roger Corman, Hollywood’s most prolific writer-director producer, and seminal influencing force in modern moviemaking over the last 60 years. Featuring interviews with Hollywood icons and cinematic luminaries, some who launched their careers within Corman’s unforgettable world of filmmaking, including Paul W.S. Anderson, Peter Bogdanovich, Robert De Niro, Peter Fonda, Pam Grier, Ron Howard, Eli Roth, Martin Scorsese, William Shatner and Jack Nicholson, along with many others, this documentary chronicles how Corman created his cult film empire, one low-budget success at a time, capitalizing on undiscovered talent, and pushing the boundaries of independent filmmaking.
Director Alex Stapleton weaves archival footage following Roger’s illustrious career: From his early days of genre-defining classics including the original Fast and Furious, the original Little Shop of Horrors, The Crybaby Killer, The Intruder, House of Usher, and The Wild Angels (which at that point in 1966 was his 100th film) – to present day video of him and his wife Julie on location, still at work as they continue to produce and distribute films outside the studio system: fast, cheap and out-of-this-world!

X-Posting von Nerdcore: Netter Trailer zur Zombie-Miniserie Viva Berlin! (Facebook) von Moritz Mohr und Benjamin Munz. Die Serie ist ihre Abschlussarbeit an der Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg und lief im Sommer bereits auf dem Fantasy Filmfest. Ich weiß nicht, ob die Serie wirklich etwas taugt, behalte das aber im Auge. Snip vom FFF:
Der deutsche Zombiefilm erhebt sich aus seinem Grab und startet einen blutigen Blitzangriff auf die Hauptstadt. VIVA BERLIN! heißt das ambitionierte Abschlussprojekt einiger Filmstudenten, die uns darin „Horrorgeschichten ganz ohne Weichspüler“ versprechen: „Genrekost vom Feinsten, so hart und kompromisslos, wie es die Zombiefans kennen und erwarten.“ Und sie lösen dieses Versprechen ein.
Die höchst professionelle Produktion ist für deutsche Verhältnisse von ungewohnter Härte – sowohl vom Gorelevel als auch thematisch. (Kleiner Hinweis: in Berlin werden neuerdings Zombies sexuell missbraucht.) VIVA Berlin! besteht aus fünf thematisch lose miteinander verbundenen Episoden zwischen vier und neun Minuten. Darin geht es so zur Sache, dass eine Ausstrahlung im Fernsehen ohnehin nicht in Frage kommt. Deshalb laden die Jungproduzenten ihre Serie Ende des Jahres ins Netz – dann können die kurzen Folgen, so drückte es der Regisseur aus, „irgendwo zwischen E-Mails, einer Runde World of Warcraft und Youporn angeschaut werden.“
Nach dem Klick noch der Teaser der Serie zum Fantasy Filmfest und ein Making Of.

Hier der Trailer zu Project X, Regisseur von Hangover, die Parallelen sind unverkennbar. Werde ich mir ganz sicher nicht ansehen: „Three high school seniors throw a birthday party to make a name for themselves. As the night progresses, things begin to spiral insanely out of control as word of the party spreads.“

Hier der Trailer zur 80s-Serienverfilmung 21 Jump Street. Ich hab’ die Serie ja nie gesehen, weil das für mich so’n Mädchending war – genau der gleiche Grund, warum ich nie NKOTB oder Take That gehört habe. Sowas macht man halt einfach nicht. Deshalb kann ich zum Trailer nicht viel sagen, außer dass das einigermaßen unterhaltsam aussieht. Hier der Plott:
In the action-comedy 21 Jump Street, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) are more than ready to leave their adolescent problems behind. Joining the police force and the secret Jump Street unit, they use their youthful appearances to go undercover in a local high school. As they trade in their guns and badges for backpacks, Schmidt and Jenko risk their lives to investigate a violent and dangerous drug ring. But they find that high school is nothing like they left it just a few years earlier – and neither expects that they will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind.

Hier der erste richtige Trailer zu American Reunion und diesmal musste ich sogar lachen. Sieht trotz Mainstream-Komödienblödsinn recht sympathisch aus.
In the comedy American Reunion, all the American Pie characters we met a little more than a decade ago are returning to East Great Falls for their high-school reunion. In one long-overdue weekend, they will discover what has changed, who hasn’t and that time and distance can’t break the bonds of friendship. It was summer 1999 when four small-town Michigan boys began a quest to lose their virginity. In the years that have passed, Jim and Michelle married while Kevin and Vicky said goodbye. Oz and Heather grew apart, but Finch still longs for Stifler’s mom. Now these lifelong friends have come home as adults to reminisce about—and get inspired by—the hormonal teens who launched a comedy legend.

Hier der neueste Trailer zu „Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol“ von Brad Bird. Ich hatte ja zunächst die Befürchtung, dass Bird aufgrund seines Genre-fremden Œuvre (The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille) nicht passend für so ‘nen Actionkracher wäre, aber das sieht super aus, der wird klasse, perfekt durchkomponiertes Blockbuster-Actionkino, genau wie der komplette Rest des Franchise. Ich bin aber auch Fan, auf mich sollte man da nicht hören.
Director Brad Bird and Producer J.J. Abrams bring us the action packed, entertainment event of the holiday season with MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – GHOST PROTOCOL. This is not just another mission. The IMF is shut down when it’s implicated in a global terrorist bombing plot. Ghost Protocol is initiated and Ethan Hunt and his rogue new team must go undercover to clear their organization’s name. No help, no contact, off the grid. You have never seen a mission grittier and more intense than this.

Hier der Trailer zu „The Innkeepers“ von Ti West, der 2010 mit „House of the Devil“ einen meiner Lieblingsfilme des Jahres ablieferte. Innkeepers lief bereits auf dem Fantasy Filmfest, das ich leider verpasst hatte. Jedenfalls dürfte auch das hier ganz großes Kino werden, hier der Plot:
After over one hundred years of service, The Yankee Pedlar Inn is shutting its doors for good. The last remaining employees -Claire and Luke – are determined to uncover proof of what many believe to be one of New England’s most haunted hotels. As the Inn’s final days draw near, odd guests check in as the pair of minimum wage “ghost hunters” begin to experience strange and alarming events that may ultimately cause them to be mere footnotes in the hotel’s long unexplained history.

Der Dr. Seuss-Kram ging ja immer an mir vorbei, aber der Trailer zu „The Lorax“ sieht gut aus und ein Film mit Polyphonic Spree im Soundtrack kann eigentlich nur gut werden.
From the creators of Despicable Me and the imagination of Dr. Seuss comes the 3D-CG feature Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax, an adaptation of the classic tale of a forest creature who shares the enduring power of hope. The animated adventure follows the journey of a 12-year-old as he searches for the one thing that will enable him to win the affection of the girl of his dreams. To find it he must discover the story of the Lorax, the grumpy yet charming creature who fights to protect his world. Danny DeVito will lend his vocal talents to the iconic title character of the Lorax, while Ed Helms will voice the enigmatic Once-ler. Also bringing their talents to the film are global superstars Zac Efron as Ted, the idealistic youth who searches for the Lorax, and Taylor Swift as Audrey, the girl of Ted’s dreams. Rob Riggle will play financial king O’Hare, and beloved actress Betty White will portray Ted’s wise Grammy Norma. Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax is the third feature created by Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment (Despicable Me, Hop).
