DreamWorks Animation announced yesterday that it now owns the intellectual property of the famed frizzy haired, bejeweled bellybutton Troll dolls. This can only mean one thing – a franchise reboot is in the works.
While the creepy Troll dolls have long been replaced by equally (if not more) creepy toys like Furby’s, Monster High dolls, Bratz, and anything on this list, it seems as though DreamWorks hopes to pull the nostalgia card and revive the obsession. | Full Story
One would reasonably expect that a movie called Kick-Ass is not seeking to go in line with certain social graces. And the first trailer for the film featured a good deal of swearing, blood, and other things to make Helen Lovejoy throw up her hands and cry for someone to think of the children. Well, now parents don’t have to worry about the promotional material for Kick-Ass 2 corrupting their darlings, because a green band trailer has been released. | Full Story
Finally! A Kick-Ass 2 trailer has arrived. Universal Pictures unveiled the trailer today — I mean the red band trailer and it looks like oodles of fun.

The film stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloe Grace Moretz and Christopher Mintz. | Full Story
The official synopsis has been released for Kick-Ass 2, giving fanboys and casual audiences alike some general idea of what exactly will play out in the sequel to 2010′s smash action-oriented comedy.

The Carrie teaser trailer was finally released and it certainly leaves viewers wanting more. Carrie was adapted from a Stephen King novel of the same name. Carrie first hit the silver screen in 1976 starring Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie. Both women were nominated for Oscars after their performance, perhaps the remake will have the same luck. The 2013 version stars Chloe Grace Moretz as the bullied telekinetic high school student, Carrie, and Julianne Moore as the uber-religious and controlling mother.

The first poster has been revealed for Carrie, an upcoming remake of the horror film classic released over 30 years ago. It showcases the two things that made the original popular: blood and angst.
The poster has been released in the wake of the New York Comic-Con following the showing of a teaser trailer for the film (which has yet to surface). It features Chloe Grace Moretz covered in blood (pig’s blood maybe?) and staring at the viewer in complete contempt. | Full Story
