LA Times gives the skinny on that IMAX Avatar preview for next Friday..

Ben Fritz and Jon Horn are laying out the base details on next Friday's upcoming IMAX preview of Avatar. Simply put, Fox and IMAX are giving out free tickets to two sixteen-minute previews of the upcoming James Cameron film. The previews will be held at 6:00pm and 6:30pm. Apparently, a traditional trailer for the film will be released on Friday, the 21st of August. This is slightly similar to The Dark Knight's marketing strategy. On December 14th, 2007, they released the film's much-touted opening sequence exclusive with IMAX showings of I Am Legend. But on the same day, they surprised everyone with a traditional 2-3 minute trailer in general theaters on that same day.

The teaser poster for A Nigtmare On Elm Street

Cool! Very stylish, very low key, and very moody. Just cool.

It's a nice, moody poster, but why no John Malkovich?

Shutter Island poster ...

It's obvious that Paramount is trying to sell this as a pure 100% star-driven thriller. Which is funny because that's exactly the kind of thing that Paramount used to specialize in before they caught blockbuster fever. For years, they raked in the bucks with stuff like Double Jeopardy, Rules Of Engagement, Kiss the Girls, and Along Came a Spider. Of course, none of those were directed by Martin Scorsese. The trailer makes it look like B-movie pulp-fiction, and this poster certainly echoes that (alas, I think I've guessed at least one of the twists). Still, Dennis Lehane (Mystic River and Gone, Baby Gone) is batting 2/2 in the film adaptations department. The last Martin Scorsese picture that was sold purely as popcorn entertainment won him an Oscar.

Ryand Reynolds cast as the Green Lantern

Entertainment Weekly, The Hollywood Reporter, and other less respectable sites are all reporting that Ryan Reynolds is the new flesh n' blood Hal Jordan (as opposed to the animated variation, who will be played by Christopher Meloni in Green Lantern: First Flight on July 28th). I was pulling for Bradley Cooper, but Reynolds is a fine actor with a varied resume. I'm personally a big fan of his work in the underrated Amityville Horror remake from spring, 2005. Reynolds gained far more from The Proposal than Sandra Bullock, as everyone already knew that Bullock could open in a mainstream romantic comedy. Good on Warner Bros. for not casting some 20-something CW-heartthrob (Reynolds turns 32 this year). Now the rest of the cast will likely fill out relatively quickly. As longtime readers know, I'm incredibly excited for this film for one reason - director Martin Campbell. He directed two of the best non-Connery 007 films (Goldeneye and Casino Royale) and directed one of the very best superhero films of all time (The Mask of Zorro - don't argue unless you want to pick a fight). Green Lantern is scheduled to open June 17th, 2011.

Jennifer's Body poster: Cute, but less is more

Sorry, I haven't seen Bruno yet so I can't contribute to the scholarly discussion taking place elsewhere. So, to fill up space between this morning's ode to Chris Klein and the upcoming Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince review, here's a look at the one-sheet for the upcoming Jennifer's Body. First of all, is it just me, or does the girl on the poster not quite look like the real Megan Fox? She looks more like a cross between the Transformers star and That 70s Show's Mila Kunis. No matter, 20th Century Fox knows what it's selling and is selling it right up front. Good for them. They do get bonus points for giving Amanda Seyfried (Big Love, Mama Mia, Mean Girls) billing above the poster. But they lose point for just having too much text. Do we really need a 'Hell Yes!' written on the chalkboard? Furthermore, the line 'She's evil... and not just high school evil' may come off as witty in the film itself, but it's too on the nose for a tag line. The one tag that works wonderfully is the straight-faced blurb "From the Academy Award Winning Writer of Juno". They should have just gone with that and let moviegoers use the visuals (Ms. Fox sitting on a desk with a human hand sticking out) and their imagination.

Johnny Depp's Mad Hatter gets a poster all for himself

It looks like we'll be seeing character-centric posters for all of the main characters in this Tim Burton-directed Alice In Wonderland quasi-sequel (think Return To Oz). I'm assuming we'll see an official high-res version soon enough. Enjoy!

GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra poster

It'll probably be better than Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, right?
(iyelaah pasti Right!!! bzzt)
