The People Vs. George Lucas Teaser Trailer – People are still very, very upset about Star Wars
I don’t know quite what to say about this one, other than that if I was Geroge Lucas, I’d be filing a lot of restraining orders, installing a panic room and maybe getting one of those bubble cars the Pope has. The People Vs. George Lucas delves deep into geekdom and takes a look at the people who are still very upset both by the Special Edition versions of the original Star Wars trilogy and the prequels. And boy, are they rabidly devoted but very upset. Click below to take a look at the teaser trailer.

Kick-Ass UK Red Band Trailer – Cool superhero comedy and violence for us Brits
For an independently made movie with few big stars (other than a supporting role for Nic Cage), the hype building around Kick-Ass is impressive. The film tells the story of an ordinary kid, Dave Lizewski, who decides that despite having no powers, he’s going to become a superhero. He soon gets in over his head battling against the dangerous world of crime, while also inspiring others to become masked vigilantes. Now a new, UK red band trailer has been released. While not as rude and violent as the Kick-Ass’ Hit Girl red band promo, it features a fair amount of new footage and is very amusing, suggesting this is one film that will live up to the hype. Click below for the new trailer. Kick-Ass hits UK cinemas on April 2nd.
Ong Bak 3 Promo Trailer – Tony Jaa is back as Ting!
After the success of the action-packed 2003 Thai movie, Ong Bak, which features Tony Jaa doing almost unbelievable stunts – with no help from wires or CG – they rolled out a prequel, Ong Bak 2. It again featured Jaa but had absolutely nothing to do with the first movie. However it looks like they’ve learnt their lesson as Ong Bak 3 features Jaa once again playing Ting, his character from the first film. The trailer looks pretty cool, although as with Ong Bak 2, there does seem to be a slight obsession with running around and doing stunts on the back of elephants. Click below to take a look
