I've read the book and really enjoyed it. It swept me away, so am looking forward to the film.

Trailer Thursday: Iron Man 3

Watch out - here comes another Ironman film. I've enjoyed these movies and think Robert Downey Jr does a fabulous job as Tony Stark.

Release date is April (darn it). Still this looks gooood....

To celebrate, here is the latest Bond movie, Skyfall, with Daniel Craig as Bond.

I do love the Bond films - Sean is the old favourite but I loved Pierce Bronsan thinking he should be Bond from his Remington Steele days, and I'm enjoying Daniel Craig's performance too - as well as the over the top action.

Do you have a favourite bond?

Trailer Thursday: The Hobbit

Can you hear me squeeing from where you sit?

Yep, I'm a tad excited about The Hobbit movie coming up. They've got a new trailer and it looks magical, and brings Middle Earth to life.

Can't wait to see it.

Trailer Thursday: RED

I saw this movie a little while back and I thought it was an all round great movie - it had humour, wit, action, adventure, some romance,  and yep, they blowed shit up. What more can you ask for?

RED has a who's who of the best actors - Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich (who steals the show), Helen Mirren, Brian Cox (who is funny as an ex-Russian agent), Ernest Borgnine, Richard Dreyfuss, Mary-Louise Parker and Karl Urban.

It's based on a comic book but I'd never heard of it before. I should track it down.

Trailer Thursday: Snow White & The Huntsman

I went to watch this week, and I must say I throughly enjoyed it.

I liked the darkness of this telling. There was a Joan of Arcish feel as a friend pointed out, and it was interesting to Christianity in it, which I can't recall in a Snow White tale before. So it made it seem more like a forgotten land in our world, if that makes sense, rather than a purely fairytale land.

So a great night...right up to the point where I stumbled in the car park. Yes, ouch is the word.

Do you like fairy tale movies?

Trailer Thursday: Monsters University

After 11 years, we have a sequel to Monsters, Inc. Actually it's a prequel. It shows Sully and Kowalski in their college days, and it looks like it's going to be fun.

Can't wait to see Monsters University.

I love animated films.

What about you? Are you a fan of animated films?

Trailer Thursday: Brave

There is something magical about animation movies. I've loved them since I was a child, but now as technology improves, they can be even more magical. This trailer shows just such a film.

Brave looks like a fun adventure, all with Scottish accents, including Billy Connolly's.  And of course, I love the idea of a heroine rising above what people think she should do. I love the tag line as well 'Change your fate.'

Trailer Thursday

Like you needed me to connect another day to a theme, right? But it works :)) Helps me remember the blog posts too.

I was put onto the trailer of this film by Tracey O'Hara (thanks, Tracey). Looks like my kind of movie.

And one I stumbled across this week, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.

What do you think? Are these movies you would watch?

Super Sunday

I'm a fan of the Men in Black films. I love humour added to my sci-fi, and the first two films did this so well. Now, there's a third film in the franchise. I didn't even though this was being filmed, so it was a nice surprise to see the trailer. Which being the kind person I am (hic), I've added for your viewing pleasure.

And for a little giggle....

Have a great week. Try and avoid the stresses of the pre-Christmas/holiday rush.

Childhood memories

Da-na-na-na....

Doo-doo-doorooroo.

Yes, the Muppets are back!  A new movie is coming soon. I had a little giggle when watching the trailer.

Ah, the Muppets - childhood memories of watching them on TV. Gotta love that Miss Piggy.

I think this is a good way to start the week.

Avengers Trailer

Yes, The Avengers trailer has been released. It's been directed by Joss Whedon (all hail!) so I'm doubly excited.

I so love the comic book films.

Marilyn Monday

I've just seen the trailer for a new UK film called My Week With Marilyn.

How hard it must have been to be her, despite her always, cheery public face. To always to be expected to be 'Marilyn' instead of Norma Rae.

And what a huge role for Michelle Williams to play.

I have also seen co-star Eddie Redmayne in other projects recently (The Pillars of the Earth, and Tess of the D'Urbevilles). A talent to be watched, and notice he's been in quite a few good films of late.
