This was up on Saturday, I think, but I’m a little behind on… well, everything. But anyway, following “Detached” and “Drifting,” is a third single-take clip/trailer from Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity, called “I’ve Got You.”

Trailer Watch: Japanese Space Pirate Captain Harlock trailer
Saturday, July 27th, 2013
Appleseed and Appleseed Ex Machina director Shinji Aramaki is back with a CG-animated adaptation of Space Pirate Captain Harlock. This third trailer (all in Japanese, so… hopefully you either speak it, or you’re familiar enough with the anime that you have some idea of what’s going on). I never did, and my Japanese is basically non-existent, so I’m totally lost… but it sure looks pretty.
The film is out in Japan this September, but no signs of an American release at this time. It’s all but guaranteed to make it here on video, eventually, though, so if you’re a fan, just hang in there.
If you really want to spoil it for yourself, there’s about twelve minutes of footage online here.
Trailer Watch: And another single-take trailer for Gravity…
Wednesday, July 24th, 2013
Hot on the heels of “Detached,” which went online yesterday, comes “Drifting,” a second single-take trailer/clip for Alfonso Cuarón’s Gravity. Apparently Warner Brothers has a third coming (most likely) tomorrow.
Trailer Watch: Carl Erik Rinsch’s 47 Ronin
Wednesday, July 24th, 2013
The story of the forty-seven ronin’s revenge has been told before many times, in film, TV, plays, opera, comics… basically, every format imaginable.
When Keanu Reeves was announced as starring in a new take on the story, it was immediately obvious that it wasn’t going to be a historically faithful version. Then we started hearing about “witches and giants” and I guess they’d decided to chuck all realism out the window. The results look alright, I guess, but a little too heavy on that bland, plasticky big-budget action-adventure CG look that Hollywood has been cranking out too much of lately.
The film also stars Hiroyuki Sanada and Rinko Kikuchi. It hits theaters on December 25th this year — in 3D, of course.
