In this screen adaptation of Part One of the novel, Dagny Taggart, a railroad heiress, tries to save the company by using an unproven type of metal to repair a main line and continue business with oil baron Ellis Wyatt.

As she works to overcome each obstacle, Dagny detects a pattern, and suspects a sinister force working against her. All across the country, there is a growing sense of helplessness, often summed up in a popular catch phrase – “Who is John Galt?” After the successful test of Taggart Transcontinental’s new rail line made of the new alloy, Rearden Metal, Dagny and industrialist Henry Rearden actively pursue the inventor of a revolutionary motor that could change the transportation industry forever.

Angels And Airwaves’ Love Trailer

Rob Heath — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 01:25:13 +0000

Synopsis: After losing contact with Earth, Astronaut LeeMiller becomes stranded in orbit alone aboard the International Space Station. As time passes and life support systems dwindle, Lee battles to maintain his sanity – and simply stay alive. His world is a claustrophobic and lonely existence, until he makes a strange discovery aboard the ship.

Thoughts: This is more of a music video, less of a trailer. Some amazing visuals, but I couldn’t tell you what this movie is supposed to be about without referring to the official synopsis.

I was hoping for something a little more linear in this first trailer for Love. I was all about Angels and Airwaves when they first hit the radio. When I found out the band was producing this movie, and I was estatic, but it seemed to drag on in production for a really really really long time. I mean REALLY long time. It’s been 5 years since AVA’s album, ‘We Don’t Need to Whisper’ came out. So yea, I have been waiting a while.

No release date has been announced at this time for Love. Starring Gunner Wright and Wesley Sellick. Directed by William Eubank.

Kaboom Trailer

Rob Heath — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 01:13:10 +0000

Synopsis: A sci-fi story centered on the sexual awakening of a group of college students.

Thoughts: Kaboom looks like a sort of hornier, more hipsterish (did I just make up that word?) version of Donnie Darko, except your Sci-Fi overtones are lacking in creativity and depth.

The trailer doesn’t give much to look at. It bounces back and forth between sexual content and it’s sci-fi elements. The sci-fi parts are all too vague and almost seem not thought out. Like the lack of clarity is just supposed to make it all the more compelling. But it doesn’t. The eye sore of it all is the terrible sets. They looks like a furniture show room.

And finally, is it me, or does it feel like the director only utilized one camera lens for the entire film?

Kaboom will be premiering at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. Starring Thomas Dekker, Haley Bennett, and James Duval. Directed by Gregg Araki.

Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance Trailer

Rob Heath — Fri, 14 Jan 2011 00:34:50 +0000

Synopsis: The landmark anime Evangelion evolves, reaching new heights of intensity in the new feature film, EVANGELION: 2.0 YOU CAN (NOT) ADVANCE. In an explosive new story full of brutal action and primal emotion, a group of young pilots maneuver their towering, cyborg Eva Units into combat against a deadly and disturbing enemy. In the battle to prevent the apocalyptic Third Impact, Shinji and Rei were forced to carry humanity’s hopes on their shoulders. Now, as the onslaught of the bizarre, monstrous Angels escalates, they find their burden shared by two new Eva pilots: the fiery Asuka and the mysterious Mari. In this thrilling new experience for fans of giant robot action, the young pilots fight desperately to save mankind – and struggle to save themselves.

Thoughts: This trailer isn’t trying to sell itself to just any passer by. It’s apart of the Evangelion anime series, so all it has to do is flash some dramatic action sequences, and it’s good to go. I have never gotten into the series myself, so I am not the right guy to judge this trailer based on demographic they are selling it to. So I’ll leave this trailer un-rated.

Evangelion: 2.0 hits theaters January 21st, 2011. Directed by Hideaki Anno.

Tetsuo: The Bullet Man Trailer

Rob Heath — Thu, 13 Jan 2011 01:39:27 +0000

Synopsis: An American named Anthony is living and working in Tokyo and married to a Japanese woman. When their son is killed by the same driver who creates the Tetsuos in previous films, he makes the transformation into Tetsuo.

Thoughts: This is the third film in the Tetsuo film series. Known for it’s hyperbolic / nightmarish visuals, the series has a sizable underground fan base. And if you don’t love Tetsuo, you probably hate it. I have yet to see any of the Tetsuo films, but I have seen a few clips of the first film, and it looks absolutely insane.

This is one of those trailers that really shouldn’t be rated. It’s for a very specific audience and has a very specific style that can’t be categorized with the rest of the trailers on the site.

Tetsuo: The Bullet Man has been circling film festivals across the world since 2009. No release date has been announced at this time. Starring Eric Bossick, Akiko Monô and Yûko Nakamura. Directed by Shinya Tsukamoto.
