We haven’t mentioned much about it, mainly because everything Michael Bay has ever done has been complete and utter wank, but apparently those fucking awful Transformers films did quite well. So well in fact that there’s a third helping of robo-shite about to be heaped onto steaming cinema screens everywhere. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Anyway, here’s the first trailer for Transformers: Dark of the moon, wherein we find out that Hasbro’s favourite son’s (and daughters -can’t forget the fashionably pink Arcee after all) have been lurking about on the moon for years. For some reason…
Oh dear oh dear. Remember Ghost Rider? Rubbish wasn’t it? A badly CGI’d Nic Cage rolling about and taking down crappy MTV villains while comedy Hammer Horror mist floated about and Sam Neill did lots of expositional mumbling. Bloody awful. In it’s favour though, it was undeniably fun. Cage and the crew obviously realising the sheer stupidity of the material and the script and just rolling with it, adding a charm that made it far more enjoyable than it had any right to be. Suffice to say, Jonah Hex leaves its sense of humour at the door….
Anyone order a steampunk/magical western with added physical deformity and Megan Fox? F**K Yeah!
Yep, It’s the new trailer for DC Comic’s latest, Jonah Hex.
The slightly-alternate universe western certainly stirred up some fan interest at it’s comic-con preview, but it’s hard to judge whether this will be Wild Wild West or Desperado -either way, hey -it’s got Megan Fox in a corset, what more do you want?
Jonah Hex is released on June 18th.
Since Horton Hears A Who man Jimmy Hayward was announced as director, bizzarre choices seem to be a way of life on the set of upcoming supernatural western Jonah Hex, and they don’t come much odder than this.
Eschewing the more usual Danny Elfman/John Williams/70s rock soundtrack choices favoured by most productions, Hayward has gone with concept metal titans Mastodon!
World’s Sexiest Woman ™ Megan Fox; topless, in a horror comedy from an award-winning writer who used to strip for a living. It’s fairly obvious why Fox’s Atomic imprint are hanging high box office hopes on this but unfortunately it looks like it’s a triumph of marketing over substance.
