Extended 'Elysium' Trailer Is A Must See

Neil Blomkamp’s upcoming sci-fi film “Elysium” has everything I want out of a movie. There’s a great cast, plenty of action, a cool setting, and, perhaps most importantly, a story with a point, one that makes you think. And there's Sharlto Copley looking like a post-apocalyptic madman. It was already near the top of the list of movies to be excited about for 2013—along with “PacificRim” and “Snowpiercer”—but this new extended trailer is flat out phenomenal. You walk away with a much more in depth understanding of the story. Without wasting too much more of your time, you better make damn sure to mark August 9 on your calendar. 

'Elysium' Trailer Is Coming After Your Ivory Tower

Are you ready for some heavy, thematically dense science fiction in the guise of a kick ass action vehicle? So are we. Now we have the first trailer “District 9” director Neill Blomkamp’s upcoming “Elysium” to gawk at. And it is good. 

Check it out for yourself after the break.

'Red Eagle' Movie Review

If movies like “RoboCop” are to be believed, the near future is going to be a festering cesspool of violence and corruption. It must be true, because no matter what era “near future” we’re talking about, the prediction is roughly the same. So, you should probably be on the look out in the next few years and be prepared. Thai director Wisit Sasanatieng’s (“Tears of the Black Tiger”) new superhero film, “Red Eagle”, a remake/homage to a 1960s action series, holds to this bleak vision. When the world is going to hell, and in desperate need of a savior, up steps Red Eagle.
