Last month the first trailer for Hot Tub Time Machine made its way out. Though the movie hasn't officially been rated yet it will end up with an R rating and because of that the standard trailer can't really get across the true nature of the comedy. So in an attempt to do so a brand new Red Band trailer arrived today. The movie is directed by Steve Pink (Accepted) who was the writer of High Fidelity and Grosse Point Blank and stars John Cusack along with a host of comedians. The story cent...

Buried Teaser Trailer and Clip
Last month I wrote about the upcoming film Buried which is actually set to screen sometime at the Sundance Film Festival which began today and runs through the 31st.

NYMag.com is reporting that Sony will soon announce they have signed (500) Days of Summer director Marc Webb to direct the next three Spider-Man films.

Trailer for MacGruber
I never envisioned the SNL skit "MacGruber" would be turned into a movie. It seems like most everyone that hears about this expects it to be terrible and its tough to argue against that.

The first trailer came out today and somewhat surprisingly being red band it implies the movie will have an...
