十月圍城 - Bodyguards and Assassins extended trailer
Ive seen a number of different version of trailers for this movie and havent bothered posting it but I decided what the heck, why not! apparantely the first trailer was to set the mood for the film with the next one sets up the movies story, little unsure what the third one is but this one like what Twitchfilm says proves Hing Kong action movies is alive and well and back up with with a fantastic replica Old 1900's Hong Kong set sets this movie up to be a big monster of a movie!
The movie is all about the bodygaurds of Dr.Sun Yat-Sen (regarded as the father of modern Chinese communism) during 1905 who attempt to protect him from the onslaught of assassins. Director Teddy Chan has brought together of virtually everyone in who's who of Chinese cinema: Nicholas Tse, Simon Yam, Tony Leung Ka-Fai, Leon Lai to Donnie Yen, Eric Tsang, Fan Bingbing, Hu Jun, to name a few...
The movie will be released in Hong Kong in a few weeks on December 18th and the movie has been bought for the Britsh, Canadian, Koren and Middle East cinema but there's no release date yet.....

ONE LAST SUNSET - Trailer
Below is the teaser trailer for the indie horror zombie flick from Kevin Richmond ONE LAST SUNSET. The movie is about 2 sisters find themselves as the only survivors ofan apocalyptic viral outbreak that turns people to flesh-eating monsters. What I like about this trailer (which actually doesnt give much away) is the sound and the montage esque trailer, it gave me a feel of isloation, loneliness and the sense of something truely evil getting closer to you.
If your look for a zombie movie with a slight difference this coul be it

THE DESCENT 2 Exclusive Clip
December 2nd see's the Descent Part 2,the sequel to the cult British Horror movie from 1995.
Movie one I recently just watched on Film Four and it was a cast of unknown and I have to say Ive not really been a massive of an of British movies recently as the majority of them havent been great but I was impressed. The movie didn't have spectacular success but it did enough to gain a loyal hardcore base of fans as well as impress (and surprise) many movie critics.
Below is an exclusive clip of the movie which is out December 2nd in UK and Ireland and 2010 in the USA. The Descent 2 follows Sarah Carter is suffered a traumatic time in movie 1 seeing her husband and family been killed in a freak car accident and goes on a all girl caving trip which goes horrifically wrong. Recovering from the pyschological scars of the trip in a hospital Sarah must go with a rescue team back into the cave and face the horror again, with a few twists thrown in for good measure!

Police, Adjective Trailer
I'll be honest, I would nt have considered looking at Romania for a movie. usually for a indie or foreign movie we have assumption of looking at France, Spain, Italy or Germany or maybe parts of asia,but the trailer for Police Adjective has been posted online.
The movie has been directed and written by Corneliu Porumboiu and is a comedy crime drama about a police officer undercover who refuses to arrest a young man who sells drugs to his friends. When it comes to comedy, there is certain comedy styles that have a world appeal and others have a appeal that may appeal to a limited audience or countries and I would label this movie under this. It is a dry but quirky comedy which does look like it has alot of smart lines you have to listen for to appreciate the scene.
Even if you dont get the comedy it would be worthwhile to check this movie out to the number of credits, awards and nominations the movie has picked up during 2009's festival season. 2 awards at Cannes (where it debuted) and a oscar nomination for best foreign movie.
I have no word of an British or Irish release date but on 23 rd december IFC Films will be releasing the movie in a limited cinema release and on VOD (Video on Demand) for USA/Canada.

MAMA GOGO TRAILER
Here is the trailer for Friðrik Þór Friðriksson's new movie Mama Gogo.
Mamma Gógó is about Gógó, an elderly lady, who is diagnosed with Alzheimer disease and her son's and family's reaction to her illness. While Gógó is continuously getting herself into trouble, of the kind only a person with Alzheimer can, the son, the director is struggling with financial troubles after his film Children of Nature has flopped in the cinema. As Gógó's disease progresses her family decides that it is best for her to move to a nursing home. Gógó and her deceased husband, who appears on the scene, are not happy with that decision. The director is dependent on others when it comes to his finances and when Gógó settles into the nursing home he decides to sell his mother's apartment and valuable artwork but the profits of the sale help him to get by. -IMDBFriðriksson seems to headed back to the roots that won him a oscar nomination a while back and I would say the movie itself is based on his own life and how he got that oscar nom. Its amazing what foreigners and a little gold man can do to get you recognition in your own country. If the nod never arrived Icelandics wouldn't have taken notice of his work

Animated Short: Walter Beckett is PIGEON IMPOSSIBLE
You mask yourself is this Tom Cruise's new Mission Impossible movie gone animation? No, this is the animated short of Pigeon Impossible directed by Lucas Martell .
The full short created in CG and now released in its full length in Hi-Def thanks to Youtube. The short like everything these days done the festival circuit and went down very well where ever it was played and I think sometimes instead of the adverts (still include the trailers), little shorts like this be it animated or not would be ideal to be shown in previews before the main movie comes on. This would be great as it would give these talented directors a chance to show their pride and joy to a wider audience though reality cinema's wont budge as they would loose alot of business by leaving out the adverts.
Enjoy the short and why not click on the link to the movies offical website and look at loads of pictures and a behind the scenes diary of the movie as well.
