NewsGush: New Skyline Trailer – Now THIS Is How You Make A Science Fiction Movie!

0 Comments

Tentacles, exploding stealth bombers, giant killer robots. Yep, the new trailer for upcoming sci-fi monsterpiece Skyline just hit the web, and while the acting might leave something to be desired, who cares when you’ve got helicopter-chomping gloop beasts and fighter jet vs. UFO action like this?

Basically, you already knew that we’d love this didn’t you? For one thing it’s got Statham in it, which means it’s already head and shoulders above 99% of stuff on our Lovefilm list.

Add in Stallone, Willis, and surprisingly intelligent (PHD in Biological Physics apparently…) terrible Punisher Dolph Lundgren, and you can’t really go wrong.

Can you?

Review: The A-Team

Back when I was 9 years old, the A-Team was awesome man, representing a fantastic Saturday afternoon escape from the clutches of a mother hell-bent on dragging me around the town centre to purchase ill-fitting school shoes, the adventures of Hannibal, Face, Murdoch and B.A happily helped form my entire view of the Midwest, a mythical land full of villainous landowners, oppressed townsfolk, and non-murderous mercenaries who would happily defend your property and your honour –even if doing so involved building a tank that launched cabbages at heavily armed brigands. Over the years, I’ve caught a few reruns and realised that like its contemporaries, it’s actually slow, disastrously plotted mix of improbable scenarios, comedy villains and cigar-chomping, milk-drinking catchphrases. Luckily, the movie is exactly the same.

NewsGush: Crank Up The TV

Far be it for us to diss the movies, but with the likes of 24 and..erm…Relic Hunter…the small screen has long had more than it’s fair share of high-octane action. Fortunately for those of us who prefer Cinema’s unique buzz, Crank directors Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor have decided to combine the two, pitching an hour-long drama to NBC this week.

Given the sheer lunacy the pair bought to the Stath-starring mechanical heart/synthetic drug explosion-a-thons, the series-tentatively titled Zeroes – has a lot to live up to, but the pair aren’t worried;

“We want to drop right into it and sustain the absolute most berserk state of crisis, when all of the options have been exhausted” says Taylor in the Hollywood Reporter.

What do you think-can the human brain take 26 episodes of berserk? Or should they stick to the DVD market?
