"God Help Us All!" - Godzilla & Friends Send Us Back To The Stone Age!
Speaking of remakes...
I am seriously loving these Godzilla trailers being concocted by the good folks over at Legendary Pictures. Focusing on the real world devastation, as well as Gareth Edwards's Christopher Nolan styled approach to Kaiju Horror rather than the beast itself. We get glimpses of Godzilla (plus other big bad monsters), but just enough to tease without spoiling the effect. I'm done with the marketing from this point forward. I want to go into this Monster Epic with as little knowledge of the creatures as possible. Time to start closing eyes in theaters. I'm committed (in more ways than one). OH! And I am sooooo happy that they've kept the H-Bomb horror. Dare to dream folks, this Godzilla might be the real deal.

Deserves Still Got Nothing To Do With It - Japanese Unforgiven Trailer Arrives!
I am utterly fascinated by this remake & its trailer. As you may very well know, Unforgiven is my all time favorite movie. The first Western I ever saw in the theater, and my first experience with the Clint Eastwood persona. It lives in a very special corner of my heart. The idea of a Japanese Samurai Western remake is incredibly appealing. And I'm surprised (similar to Spike Lee's Oldboy do-over) at how similar this film looks to the original. The fear being that it's too close to the source to be its own thing. Whatever the case may be, this has just shot to the top of my most anticipated releases.
