BEETLES TRAILER MANIA: SCOTT PILGRIM, TRON, GUARDIANS, DRAGONS

Hey there Beetle-heads, it's time for me to review some new trailers for some pretty cool up-comin films.

First up: Tron Legacy

This little baby premiered in front of Alice In Wonderland a few weeks back. It's a shame that it can only be viewed in 2D online, because it really is pretty freakin cool in 3D. It would appear the storyline involves Sam Flynn, the son of gaming genius Kevin Flynn (The hero in the first film). It would appear that Kevin dissappeared from the world after the events of the first film (Weird, cuz I remember him escaping the game in the first one, but whatever). Either way, Sam, following a mysterious lead, breaks into his dads old arcade and is digitized into the world of Tron. Thats about it for the story so far, I'm hoping that the plot is more complex than the trailers are letting on though.

The first Tron is responsible for the movies we have today, it revolutionized SFX Technology and opened the door to more advanced technology for films. I'm going to see this one, just because it's a Tron film, the trailers so far though have failed to bring me fully onboard for this film.

Next is a trailer for a film called Legend Of The Guardians.

In regular 2D I wouldn't have even included this film for review. It looks retarded, to be quite honest. It follows a teen-aged owl as he sets out to find/join a group of imaginary heroes that his mom would tell him stories about when he was young. In 3-D the effects are simply stunning and really bring the audience into the film. I'd say the effects are up there with Avatars. This is one film I will definently see, just to get whisked away by those stunning effects I viewed.

Next up is the newest trailer for How To Train Your Dragon in 3-D

Dragons is about a teen-aged Viking, Hiccup, that one day injures a dragon in an attempt to prove to his friends that he would make a good warrior. But, when it comes time to finish it off, he finds he can't kill it and instead nurses it back to health and in the process forms a special bond with this monster.

In 3-D It looks like this film has everything. Amazing Special Effects that give the illusion of motion and really show off these beautiful monsters, a compelling story, and even what a appears to be a pretty good musical score. Quite simply, I'm psyched.

The final trailer for today is Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World

Scott Pilgrim follows the adventure of a college-aged male that falls in love with a girl, only to learn that she comes with some serious baggage in the form of 7 evil exes that are now out to kill him. It sounds like a pretty funny concept abd there were several points in the trailer that made me laugh. I mean, who wouldn't enjoy Michael Cera getting his ass whooped.

Beetle's Excitement Level: 10/10 I CAN'T WAIT!!!

That's all for now folks, till next time...I'll see YOU at the movies.
