Terrific Trailer Tuesday: ‘The Bourne Legacy’

Posted on February 21, 2012 by

                  The Bourne trilogy brought many things to the film going public.  A somewhat new spin on the spy genre, the headache inducing quick cut fight scenes and some pretty decent story telling.  Since it is the never ending … Continue reading →

Terrific Trailer Tuesday: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’

Posted on February 14, 2012 by

                  The first trailer for this left many wanting, including me.  It seemed too soon for a reboot and not only that, the trailer was too brooding and melodramatic worrying many that what they thought was a mistake in … Continue reading →

Review: ‘Chronicle’

Posted on February 10, 2012 by

            The trailer for the film Chronicle was one of 2011’s best trailers.  It hooked you in, with what looked like an innocent movie about teens finding out they have super powers, only to have it change drastically midway through … Continue reading →
