Here it is! It’s the teaser trailer for what is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated films this holiday season. One of the big selling points for Avatar is the film’s state-of-the-art motion-capture CGI for the “Na’vi” aliens. I do say that the creatures look quite realistic — for blue cat-like beings that is.

Here is the trailer for the new film from Napoleon Dynamite director Jared Hess. You can almost call this film “Napoleon Dynamite meets Flight of the Conchords,” as the film stars the Conchord’s Jermaine Clement as a sleazy sci-fi writer that steals a teen’s story.

This week we look at the forth collaboration between Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese. Shutter Island I don’t believe that Scorsese has really been in horror/thriller territory since 1991’s Cape Fear and I suppose he decided to make a fun creepy film after winning his Oscar for The Departed.
