Trailer Run-Down: Quantum of Solace and My Name is Bruce

Hey everyone. Two new trailers for two movies that I'm pretty interested in seeing have hit the web today so I figured I'd go ahead and share them with you.


First up is the Teaser Trailer for 007's newest adventure on the big screen: Quantum of Solace. A lot of people have already decided to bash this film based on the name alone (which is ridiculous) but, after watching that teaser trailer, I don't know how you cannot be excited for this film. I don't know about you, but Casino Royale was probably the best James Bond film I've ever seen. The story was complex and engaging. Daniel Craig was a complete bad ass. Now, for really the first time in James Bond film history, we have a sequel that follows up right where the last film ended. In this sequel, Bond is just as pissed off and is ready to seek revenge for the death of Vesper Lynn on anyone who gets in his way. How about that shot of Bond coming over the a desert hill with a giant gun in his hands? Yeah, he's ready to rock. I'm first in line for this one. 



Next up is a trailer for the low-budget horror flick entitled My Name is Bruce. In this film, horror icon Bruce Campbell is contacted by a town that is plagued by monsters to help them. Thinking that it's just an acting gig, Campbell goes to the town and is shocked to find that the monsters are real... and that he is far from the monster slayer that he usually plays in his films. How cool is that premise? The whole film is basically just an inside joke. Bruce Campbell has always been my personal hero ever since I first saw the Evil Dead trilogy and the great Bubba Ho-Tep. I don't know about you, but this movie seems like it will be a blast. Bruce Campbell playing himself and fighting monsters? Yeah, that's all you need for me to be interested. The film looks like it's going to be filled with great one-liners, Ted Raimi playing tons of characters (a nice Evil Dead inside joke), and lots of cheesiness. Yeah, it looks ultra low budget, but I'm sure that will just add to the film's charm. I'm looking forward to it. 

I hope you guys enjoyed these trailers and are as excited to see these films as I am.

I certainly look forward to the new 007. And it comes out 2 days after my bday. I'm gonna go ahead and say that would be an awesome way to kick off being 21. That, or getting completely hammered and rewatching Speed Racer. That move was amazing, but it would be un-freakin-believable when you're blitzed.
And My Name is Bruce... very reminiscent of The Three Amigos, no? It looks like it'll be a fun flick.
