Mortal Kombat Legacy Ssn 2 Trailer

We talked about it in on today’s episode of the podcast, but I think everyone should take a look at the trailer for themselves. Kevin Tancharoen is back at it with season 2 of Mortal Kombat Legacy. It looks like there’s been some re-casting and an upgrade in graphics. Take a look for yourself.

Don’t forget to check out Episode 43 of the podcast to hear what we thought.

The Internship Trailer

Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson reunite again after the success of Wedding Crashers for the new comedy The Internship. Vaughn and Wilson, after recently being let go, sign up to become an intern at Google for a chance at a job. How can you beat two middle age men having to cope with dealing with 20-somethings, especially some tech savvy ones.

I thought Wedding Crashers was fantastic, especially since both actor has a unique personality. I am excited to see another rendition of the awkward friendship.

Hit the jump for the first full trailer.

Monsters University Trailer

First full trailer for Monsters University has hit the internet. It has a few scenes that have floated around in featurettes and such, but the jokes are still good. I felt Pixar’s last two films were fairly bad, but seeing this trailer has given me hope that they are back on the right track.

First Full Fast 6 Trailer

Wow that’s a lot of F’s up there. How about another pair: f*cking fun! That’s what this trailer looks like. After the Super Bowl’s TV spot, we now have a full trailer for The Fast and The Furious 6. We get a large amount of plot info. The gang’s back together to take down a gang of vehicular criminals. In exchange, they get full pardons. A pretty basic plot for a straight-forward action movie. And don’t get it mixed up. F&F is no longer simply a racing movie, it is a full blown action franchise. We also get a good glimpse at some of the new talent in the movie. Luke Evans as the antagonistic Owen Shaw. Gina Carano also shows off some of the moves that had me pumped for Haywire. Let’s hope this works out better. Take a look for yourself.

In case you missed it… Paperman!

Not too long ago, I wrote a review for the Disney/Pixar film, Wreck-It Ralph. I loved the movie, but I also gushed over the short which showed before the feature. It is a beautiful film which matches computer animation with traditional animation perfectly. If you didn’t have a chance to watch the short in theaters, Disney has done you a favor and put the short online.

Let me know what you thought of it. Also, I’ve been watching a lot of amazing shorts lately, so I may try to do a few posts with great shorts of many varieties. Let me know if you’ve seen (or made) any and if I like it, I’ll post it and share it.

Cheap Date: Jan 9th

After a week off, I welcome you to a brand new Cheap Date. The first week of the year was very light and difficult for me to find anything to recommend, but this week is a delight. Remember for Cheap Date, I will recommend a few nerdy items to entertain you for the week and all of it together will be no more than $30. Great deal, right?

Gangster Squad

The Story

I am a huge Noir / 40s gangster / Crime Action Drama fan. This story takes place in 1940s Los Angeles at a time when the city is falling into the hands of Mickey Cohen; a notorious crime boss. The police chief realizes that Cohen has too strong a hold within the proper channels and recruits a squad of cops who have what it takes to play on Cohen’s level to save their city from corruption. The story in itself is your typical cops and gangster story, but the way it’s done and the distinct plot points make this movie memorable.

As I have already seen this movie and do solemnly swear not to spoil any major plot points you may click to read what to expect from this movie. I have also posted the trailer after the jump.
