Trailers are taking to the air this week as we discuss five previews that make me think of flying.
Up
This is a real quick little teaser but it makes me smile every time I watch it, and I'm pretty certain that's Ed Asner voicing the single word used. I suspect this brief bit of film will not even end up in the final flick, but it's already sold me through its ability to be charming as hell. This is Pixar's tenth animated feature, though not having seen Wall-E yet I'm starting to fall behind. In addition to Asner the voice cast includes Christopher Plummer and Pixar mainstay John Ratzenberger, and is described as "a 'coming of old age' story," in which "a seventysomething hero, alongside his clueless wilderness ranger sidekick, travels the globe, fighting beasts and villains, and eating dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon."
Fireflies in the Garden
If Willem Defoe were my father and he was half as crazed as he looks here I'd be pretty screwed up too. This is a semi-autobiographical feature from director Dennis Lee and deals with a family trying to deal with an unexpected tragedy. Defoe plays the father and presumably the source of much of the dysfunction and Ryan Reynolds is the son publishing his memoirs and stirring up the muck. Julia Roberts is there too, along with Carrie-Anne Moss and Hayden Panetierre. The trailer comes off as fascinating but grim, so if you're looking for the feel good movie of the year you should probably look elsewhere. Here's what Eugene thought.
Jack Brooks - Monster Slayer
There are several monsters on display here, so I have to assume at least one of them can fly, right? Anyway, we've got a roller coaster ride of a monster flick here that appears to favor practical effects over digital ones, and I could almost see a young Bruce Campbell in the main role. Unfortunately Trevor Matthews who plays the title character doesn't wow me with his screen presence, but this still looks like it has a lot to offer. Jack Brooks has rage issues stemming from the monster-related slaying of his family years ago. Now when his night school professor (played by Robert Englund) transforms into a multi-tentacled beastie and starts zombifying the student body, Jack finally has a chance to be the hero. The film is currently in limited release, which means I'll have to wait for the DVD, but this looks like fun. Here's WIlliam's review of the film.
