Saint Ralph Trailer
Saint Ralph Trailers & Clips - Yahoo! Movies
I can envision the pitch for this one: Angela’s Ashes meets Chariots of Fire. Must have made for a great meeting.
Campbell Scott plays a priest who, against what seems to be the conventional wisdom of his superiors and the town around him, coaches a young boy to [...]
Yes Trailer
Apple - Trailers - Yes
Quirky, fast-paced and completely sans dialogue, this is a mediocre trailer for what I’ve read is an above-average movie. It’s great to see someone like Joan Allen play a character still sexually alive and not cede that territory to younger actresses.

Jiminy Glick in La La Wood Trailer
IFILM - Movies: Jiminy Glick in La La Wood
Well that just looks awful. At least Steve Martin has the good sense to look like he’s in pain.

Must Love Dogs Trailer
Perfectmatch.com - Bewitched, Must Love Dogs, The Wedding Crashers in Theaters this Summer
An interesting little trailer from Warner Bros. for their new romantic comedy starring Diane Lane and John Cusack. There’s not much substance to it, but what did you expect? It’s a romantic comedy. Cusack is still trying valiantly to rise [...]
Sky High Poster
JoBlo.com Movie News: Sky High poster
Here (or there as the case may be) is the poster for Sky High, a live-action Disney family film. It’s nice to see Kurt Russell return to his Disney roots but that’s the extent of my knowledge of this one. More sure to come.

Flightplan Trailer
MSN: Flightplan
This looks, well, moderately engaging. It’s briskly edited and contains lots of Jodie Foster (it’s about time she’s back in a movie) running up and down an airplane’s aisles but there’s no real sense of suspense to it. Instead it looks like a mix of The Forgotten and Passenger 57. Judge [...]
Batman Begins International Poster
actuacine.net ::: Batman Begins international french movie poster king size
French Batman Begins poster. They put up some token resistance to this being released but ultimately surrendered pretty quickly.
(Thanks to SuperHeroHype for the heads-up.)

Batman Begins on EW Cover
EW Previews Batman Begins
Well I’m just shocked - shocked! - to find Batman Begins, arguably the tentpole of the summer for Warner Brothers, so prominently displayed on the cover of Entertainment Weekly, a Time-Warner entertainment magazine. Didn’t see that coming. Really. Last thing I would have expected. No, seriously.

Serenity Trailer
FireflyMovie.com - News
Word has come down from Joss Whedon himself that tomorrow (Tuesday) will see the online debut of a trailer for Serenity. It’ll be online through Apple (but linked off the official site) and then hit theaters Friday. Ahead of what I’m not sure. The logical choice would be Hitchhiker’s Guide [...]
Interpreter TV Spots
Film Threat - Features
I knew there was something I was almost forgetting.
About half the TV shows I watch are on NBC. After the end credits of everyone in the last week there have been brief TV spots for The Interpreter. These aren’t really full-fledged commercials, nor are they during traditional commercial breaks. [...]
Darth Blogger
The Darth Side: Memoirs of a Monster
Darth Vader has a blog. This doesn’t appear to be an actual Lucasfilm-approved site (in fact the disclaimer at the bottom states that explicitly) but it is pretty funny.
Thanks to Pete for the heads-up.

TV Guide Star Wars Covers
TheForce.Net - Latest News - TV Guide Star Wars Covers Revealed
TheForce.net has a look at the five covers TV Guide will publish to promote Episode III.
Is it just me or does the Emporer look slightly less fear-inducing than a comatose old woman who has broken her hip?

Hotel Rwanda DVD Review
For anyone who prides themselves on following the news, the story of the 1994 Rwandan genocide can be tough. It was largely ignored not only by the U.S. and international governments at the time but also by the press, who apparently didn’t feel it sexy enough. However that’s the story Hotel Rwanda, starring [...]
