Movie Trailer:Deadfall

Deadfall, previously titled Kin and Blackbird, is a 2012 crime drama film directed by Stefan Ruzowitzky, from a screenplay by Zach Dean. It stars Eric Bana, Olivia Wilde, and Charlie Hunnam

SYNOPSIS
Siblings Addison (Eric Bana) and Liza (Olivia Wilde) are on the run from a casino heist gone wrong. When a car accident leaves their wheel man and a state trooper dead, they split up and make a run for the Canadian border in the worst of circumstances – a near whiteout blizzard.

Ex-con Jay (Charlie Hunnam) gets released from prison and calls his parents, June (Sissy Spacek) and retired sheriff Chet (Kris Kristofferson) that he'd be home for Thanksgiving. Jay confronts his coach who betrayed him and demands his money but he beats Jay up. During the struggle, Jay, a former boxer, inadvertently seriously injures the man. Thinking he's killed him and will go back to jail, he flees the scene.

Hannah (Kate Mara), a sheriff's deputy, visits Jay's parents and is invited by June to be in their Thanksgiving dinner that night. She goes back to the police station where is she treated poorly by her own father and town sheriff, Becker (Treat Williams), not having included her in the operation of tracking down the unknown criminals.

Jay drives into a shivering Liza in the middle of the road and takes her in. He offers to drive her to the nearest gas station. While wandering into the snow, Addison encounters an elderly man tending to his damaged snowmobile. He attacks the man who falls unconscious, only to be tricked and slices off Addison's little finger. A fight ensues between the two with Addison overpowering the man and stabbing him to death. Addison then rides off with the man's snowmobile.

Jay stops by a bar where Liza gets back on his truck to find Jay's address and calls Addison to meet up there. She gets back inside and goofs around with Jay when they pretend to be a couple to the server.

Meanwhile, Addison invades a cabin not far from the woods and kills the abusive father of the family. After dumping the man's body, he tends to the distraught wife and her children.

Jay and Liza develop a romantic relationship when they share their stories and soon end up having sex in a motel. Hannah, gathering information about the crime, performs a duty from a woman who gets concerned for her relative (the mother living in the cabin), who never showed up to her.

Realizing that she has feelings for Jay, Liza calls back on Addison and tells him that Jay left her and she couldn't proceed on with the plan and tells him that she would just find another person to share a ride with. When Jay notices Liza had left, he chases her and tells her that he has feelings for her, although Liza is only protecting Jay and telling him that it was only a fling. Liza tells Jay how her brother Addison was her protector from their abusive father, who was killed when they were young. She confides to him how she wants to have a family of her own instead of being messed up.

Hannah, along with two male colleagues, starts to investigate the cabin. When Hannah notices the man's corpse, she realizes that the perpetrator is in the cabin and signals one of the officers but is blasted with a shotgun. The two officers give chase to Addison in their snowmobiles but the male officer gets killed. Hannah then calls for back-up.

Addison arrives at Jay's house and holds his parents captive. When Liza and Jay arrive for Thanksgiving dinner, June steps out and tells him about the situation, startling Liza. They all eat dinner together and Addison discovers how Liza is involved with him, although Liza is protective of Jay and his family. Hannah, after having received a call from a Detroit detective about Jay's coach, who received only a concussion after the earlier fight, arrives and is also taken captive by Addison.

Becker notices Addison's snowmobile leading up to where they all are and soon investigates the house. When he gets to the kitchen, he shoots Addison, only to find out it's his daughter Hannah, dressed up as Addison. Hannah seems unharmed but when Becker turns his back, he is shot by Addison. A struggle between Jay and Addison ensues outside with Jay overpowering Addison, who soon gets up and questions Jay about his love for Liza. Before Addison can harm Jay, Liza fatally shoots Addison.

Movie Trailer: The Life of Pi

Life of Pi is an upcoming 3D adventure film based on the 2001 novel of the same name by Yann Martel.[2] The film is directed by Ang Lee based on an adapted screenplay by David Magee and Martin Solibakke. Suraj Sharma will play Pi. Life of Pi is scheduled to be released on November 21, 2012.



SYNOPSIS


Pi is a 16-year-old boy who is the only person to survive the sinking of a freighter. He finds himself on a lifeboat with an orangutan, hyena, a wounded zebra, and a Bengal tiger.

CAST
  • Suraj Sharma as Piscine Molitor "Pi" Patel
    • Ayush Tandon as young Pi
    • Gautam Belur as 5-year-old Pi
  • Tabu as Pi's mother
  • Adil Hussain as Pi's father
  • Irrfan Khan as the adult Piscine Molitor "Pi" Patel
  • Gerard Depardieu as The Chef
  • Rafe Spall as Yann Martel, replacing Tobey Maguire late in production due to Lee's desire to have an entirely international cast
  • Shravanthi Sainath as Pi's girlfriend
  • Andrea de Stefano as The Priest
  • Ayan Khan as Pi's younger brother
  • Vibish Sivakumar as Ravi Patel
Technically,
In this 3D feature based on Yann Martel’s award-winning novel, Ang Lee tells the story of a boy trapped at sea on a small boat with a Bengal tiger.  It’s hard to imagine how such a film would even be possible to make without the aid of state-of-the-art visual effects, and that’s reportedly exactly what Lee delivers.  After its debut at last month’s New York Film Festival, critics praised Pi’s “game-changing use of 3D” as the main reason why the picture is a serious contender in the Visual Effects category at next year’s Oscars.  Rhythm & Hues Studio, which has won that very award twice before for their work on 1998’s Babe and 2006’s The Golden Compass, would be wise to start setting aside some room on their trophy shelf.

Movie Trailer: Rise of the Guardians

Rise of the Guardians is an upcoming 2012 American 3D computer-animated fantasy-adventure film based on William Joyce's The Guardians of Childhood book series and The Man in the Moon short film by Joyce and Reel FX. Produced by DreamWorks Animation and directed by Peter Ramsey, the film will be released on November 21, 2012 in North America, and on November 30 in the United Kingdom. Joyce is also exec-producing, along with Guillermo del Toro.

Rise of the Guardians stars Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Hugh Jackman, Isla Fisher and Jude Law. It will be the last DreamWorks Animation film to be distributed by Paramount Pictures, as DreamWorks Animation has signed a 5-year distribution deal with 20th Century Fox, starting in 2013.



SYNOPSIS


Jack Frost (Pine) is a carefree boy who has no responsibilities in the world aside from bringing winter wherever he goes. But everything changes when Pitch (Law), the Nightmare King, begins his plan to engulf the world in darkness. The Guardians, Santa Claus (Baldwin), the Tooth Fairy (Fisher), the Easter Bunny (Jackman) and the Sandman enlist Jack to join their group to stop Pitch and protect the children of the world.

CAST

Chris Pine as Jack Frost
Alec Baldwin as North (Santa Claus)
Hugh Jackman as Bunnymund (Easter Bunny)
Isla Fisher as Tooth (Tooth Fairy)
Jude Law as Pitch (The Boogeyman)
Dakota Goyo as Jamie
Khamani Griffin as Caleb
Dominique Grund as CupCake

Technically,
DreamWorks Animation has something special up its sleeve with this adaptation of William Joyce’s The Guardians of Childhood books.  For starters, they hired Hugh Jackman to voice a truly intimidating version of the Easter Bunny with his natural Aussie accent.  That alone seems reason enough to check this one out.  Pair him up with a silent Sandman, Alec Baldwin’s Russian-sounding Santa, Isla Fisher as the Tooth Fairy and Chris Pine as a young Jack Frost, and you’ve got the makings of a magical holiday crossover flick the likes of which we haven’t seen since The Nightmare Before Christmas.  Once again handling art direction duties is DreamWorks regular Max Boas (Kung Fu Panda, Shrek Forever After), with Peter Ramsey stepping into the role of director for the first time.  After spending two decades working his way up in the entertainment biz, Ramsey has the distinction of being the first African American to direct a big-budget CGI animated film.  Here’s hoping things go well for him on opening weekend.

Movie Trailer: Wreck-It Ralph – November 2nd 2012




Wreck-It Ralph is a 2012 American 3D computer-animated comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 52nd animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. The film was directed by Rich Moore and scripted by Jennifer Lee and Phil Johnston. John Lasseter served as the executive producer. Wreck-It Ralph features the voices of John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman, Jack McBrayer, and Jane Lynch.
The film tells the story of the titular arcade game villain who rebels against his role as a villain and dreams of becoming a hero. He befriends Vanellope von Schweetz and ultimately must eliminate a dire threat that could affect the entire arcade, and one that Ralph may have inadvertently started. Wreck-It Ralph had its world premiere on October 29, 2012, and was released on November 2, 2012 in the United States and Canada.

Speaking of the technical aspect,
Making his directorial debut, Rich Moore jumps head first into the world of video games with Disney’s Wreck-It Ralph, the story of an 8-bit bad guy who decides he’s sick of being the heavy.  As John C. Reilly’s Ralph makes his escape into other arcade games, he encounters a variety of new characters, like Sarah Silverman’s Vanellope von Schweetz and Jane Lynch’s Sergeant Calhoun, while bumping into familiar faces from classic fare like Street Fighter, Sonic the Hedgehog and Pac-Man.  Of all the environments glimpsed in the trailer, however, the world of Sugar Rush looks to be the most eye-popping.  It’s hard to imagine a better visual playground for animators than a cross between the high-octane action of Mario Kart and the sweetness of Candy land.
CAST
  • John C. Reilly as Wreck-It Ralph, the villain of Fix-It Felix, Jr.
  • Sarah Silverman as Vanellope von Schweetz, a 9-year-old racer and glitch in Sugar Rush.
