Image
In theaters this coming December 25, 2013 starring Keanu Reeves and Rinko Kikuchi is ' 47 Ronin ' and this is on my list of films to see in theaters. Definitely have high hopes and expectations for the set up of this film thus far and it definitely looks to be very entertaining and I love the underdog and lonewolf style of story that is being set up in the trailers! I think it is definitely a different take on seeing Japanese actress Rinko Kikuchi play a villain in a film and I like the concept and think this is going to be a big surprise of a film. The Samurai and Mystical and Sorceress plot is a great combination in these two trailers and I am excited for December with all of the big films releasing. Please enjoy!

Image
The Spike Jonze film, ' Her ' starring Joaquin Phoenix, Amy Adams, Rooney Mara, Olivia Wilde, Samantha Morton and Scarlett Johanson comes to theaters January 10, 2014 and definitely is setting itself apart from the traditional romantic comedy style narratives that have been released as of late. I am a huge fan of science fiction and for this film to have a science fiction element merged with romantic comedy I think it is a very unique way of bringing two different genres into one and opening the door for more stories like this to be made and have a bigger canvas to paint on as far as storytelling is concerned. I like the idea behind this film and it definitely has my attention, the cast looks to be very solid and looks to deliver a compelling story. Check out the trailer and definitely aim to see this film when it comes out next weekend.

'PACIFIC RIM' CES TRAILER & GLaDOS (PORTAL A.I.) QUOTES'

Image
Hello gang! Back with the CES trailer for ' Pacific Rim ' and a video link for A.I. GlaDOS from ' Portal 2 ' For those of you who do not already know, director Guillermo Del Toro as stated that A.I.
