Movies, Movies, Movies for Fall 2005

Wow, I keep going over to Apple trailers to see what movies are coming out (its a regular ritual). Usually there is little that looks good, if anything, but lately I see many I might enjoy. I keep wondering if I should post something about this one, or that one, but since there are so many, I’ll just give you a few links to the trailers I’ve enjoyed.

Oliver Twist - Obviously a new rendition, but doesn’t look anything like the musical Oliver (which was one of my favourite of the story), not sure whether this will actually be any good, but looks interesting

The Sky is Falling - Cartoons are always fun.

Wallace and Gromit - I love these guys, it’s good to see them coming to the big screen.

Lord of War - This looks like it’s going to be great, very controversial, and a very interesting look at the gun trade.

Everything Is Illuminated - It says drama, but there are a lot of funny parts in the trailer. It looks very “Sunshine of the Spotless Minds”-esque. Can’t really tell what the plot is, but can’t wait to see it.

The Legend of Zorro - Any Zorro movie is worth a good watch

King Kong - Weird casting for this, they have Jack Black in it. I don’t know, everything old is new again. I just want to watch it to see if Jack Black can pull it off.

Fun with Dick & Jane - Jim Carrey. Need I say more? Its about a family, where the parents make a life as thieves. Just watch the trailers, its too funny!

The Chronicles of Narnia - The special effects for this were done by the same people who did Lord of the Rings. It’s going to be interesting to watch these movies come out, as there are 9 books, but are smaller than the Lord of the Rings. The first one they are doing, The Lion and the Witch and the Wardrobe looks awesome from what I can tell. [Director's Featurette] [Story Featurette]

Ice Age 2 - The ice age is over. If it’s as good as the first, it will be worth watching.

*NEW*
Jarhead - This looks like it’s going to be an interesting movie on operation Desert Storm
