I really enjoyed the third Mission: Impossible film, thanks to JJ Abrams and amazing turn as a villain by Philip Seymour Hoffman, but the real draw here with Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol isn’t Tom Cruise: it’s Brad Bird. The director of The Incredibles and The Iron Giant is trying his hand at live action, and I’ll be God damned if there aren’t a lot of really good shots in this. Whether or not the script strings together the action as well as it needs to, these action scenes are gonna be great. Mark my words.

From MSN Movies comes a new, red band trailer for Seth Gordon’s Horrible Bosses.

The film stars Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis, Charlie Day, Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell, Jennifer Aniston, and Jamie Foxx, and it hits theaters on July 8. Are you going to be seeing this or The Zookeeper that weekend? Or sleeping in?

As if to say, “We know you’re all having a whine party about how much everyone hates Cars 2, so here’s a teaser for Brave. It’s good, we promise.” And it looks freakin’ cool. Lush and green and loaded with bouncy (and curly!) hair, unlike any Pixar film to date (even the jungly bits in The Incredibles and Up), this looks like a big step foward in CG rendering.

Here’s a synopsis (courtesy Coming Soon):

Brave is set in the mystical Scottish Highlands, where Merida (Kelly Macdonald) is the princess of a kingdom ruled by King Fergus (Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (Emma Thompson). An unruly daughter and an accomplished archer, Merida one day defies a sacred custom of the land and inadvertently brings turmoil to the kingdom. In an attempt to set things right, Merida seeks out an eccentric old Wise Woman (Julie Walters) and is granted an ill-fated wish. Also figuring into Merida’s quest — and serving as comic relief — are the kingdom’s three lords: the enormous Lord MacGuffin (Kevin McKidd), the surly Lord Macintosh (Craig Ferguson), and the disagreeable Lord Dingwall (Robbie Coltrane).

Brave takes aim at the box office on June 22, 2012.

Via RyanSeacrest.com (weird, right?) comes the second trailer for Tarsem Singh’s 300-style swords-and-weird-accents spectacle, Immortals. It still looks kinda cool, but we’ll see if Tarsem Singh can actually work some real storytelling into all this style, where Zack Snyder failed.

The film stars Henry Cavill, Stephen Dorff, Freida Pinto, John Hurt and Mickey Rourke, and it opens (in both 2D and 3D) on November 11.
