Green Lantern
I'll be honest right off the bat- I know very little about this character. So, already I'm kind of filing this under "Movie news I barely care about". I think superhero movies have hit the bottom of the barrel. After doing comics that everyone knows about, like Superman, Batman, X-Men, and Spider-Man, they're down to these, that only the biggest of nerds will know anything about. Eh. As a movie, Green Lantern looks...silly. Not sure if that's what they meant. It seems like they're trying to go for a breezy Iron Man kinda feel here, but I have a feeling this is going to go the way of the Fantastic Four movies. By that, I mean it's going to suck. I couldn't tell you what this is about from watching the trailer, but I can tell you that this Green Lantern is what it would be like if Stiffler from American Pie became a superhero. Maybe that's what he's like in the comics, I don't know. I'm not sure if I will be seeing this or not.
Red Riding Hood
This trailer made me laugh the whole way through. It's an obvious attempt by the studios to cash in on the Twilight audience, the same way they did with Remember Me. This movie looks ridiculously stupid. Why, Gary Oldman, Why? Are your mortgage payments that bad? Also, there already was a movie where they "re-imagined" Little Red Riding Hood. It's called Freeway and Keifer Sutherland is a rapist in it. I'm not kidding, IMDb it. Since this movie deals with Werewolves, I wonder if said lychan is going to walk around the whole movie with his shirt off, and change in to a wolf that is 10 times bigger than he is. Granted, I know the director of this flick didn't do those Twilight movies, but those fx were awful. I wonder if this will be like the version of Little Red Riding Hood where the wolf eats the Grandma and then they shoot the wolf and cut her out. Don't remember that ending? Ask your folks. Anyway, I need to go to bed. It is late and I'm rambling. If you're so inclined, both trailers are up at the apple.com/trailers website. In case you didn't know, they have Beatles music now.
