After easter pathetic Tim Burton Alice In blunderland movie I went off Alice as well as Tim Burton movies, theres always a new adaptation of the movie happening somewhere nothing original about it. However if you where approached with a version which goes in a direction you would never think of what would you do? Check it out!!!
Ecila is that adaptation which takes the main elements of Alice pushes the story into modern times, throws in some grindhouse fantasy film noir and we get one fine piece of indie film making!
Ecila will be premiered at Haiwaiian Film Festival in October, you can check Ecila's theatrical trailer below.....

Trailer For Chinese Anime KSITIGARBHA
source Twitch
China isn't renowned for been a centre of producing animation,thats animation in the same frame and to the same qaulity as there neighbours Japan . Every so often there always comes a project which could match that qaulity of the Japanese anime masters and below theres a trailer for a movie that could be one of those projects, its called KSITIGARBHA.
The movie has been directed by Wu Hanqing and will be released by Beijing based animation house Vasoon. Visually it does look it does look really great, wait until half way when the action kicks in, the only doubt I have in this movie is the actual story is it good enough as you know a good story is usually a good movie (well 75% of the time!). There's a biggest religious feel to the movie especially Bhuddism definately one of caution, I would love to get my hands on this movie and many other movies but Im only a blogger!

Its a Big Bad Lonely Place even when you have your teddy...trailer for NO ROAD TO FOLLOW
Source QuietEarth
When you walk the burned decayed barren wasteland called earth with only a teddy bear for company looking for other survivors its a hard world out there. Below is the teaser trailer for Jeremy Rush's movie short NO ROAD TO FOLLOW his debut movie, its an interesting hopeful piece which has no dialogue, but what lacks in speech we get great cinematography along with a pounding soundtrack which does make this look a interesting movie which is due for release very soon.

10-10-10 The World will become a dark place, Trailer for DARK WORLD 3D
source Twitch
3D Seems to be everywhere personally I dont see the fantastic experience's we keep hearing about, maybe I've just chosen the worst movies to sample the '3-d' experience or I just the film studio's ploy to rip us all off more especially when the standard ticket is very pricey, I'm not paying £10 plus £3 for the glasses, anyway thats off my chest! Below is the first full trailer for Russian 3D Fantasy DARKWORLD.
The movie will be the first 3D Russian movie with real actors in it which sees a group of students awake some ancient magical being whilst on a antropoligist exepidition. Confused dot com here folks there also something about a meteorite shield as well and I know I had a dig at 3d as im not yet conviced after 5 3d made movies but watching this trailer I think we can it does look better if it's in 3d instead of 2d (reality).
have a gander let me know what you think....

Trailer For Eugino Mira's Baroque thriller AGNOSIA
source BloodyDisgusting
I've been waiting agonisingly for some new trailers to post on my blog, and we get this little beauty! Below is a teaser trailer for Spanish movie AGNOSIA which some websites are calling the next 'The Orphanage' or 'Pan's Labyrinth' well they are very close as the movie comes from the producers of those 2 movies Eugino Mira.
European Horror/thrillers especially Spanish ones over the last few years have been some of the best so when another one appears its does call out for our attention especially when the crap we see from hollywood be lucky to get 1 star (though there is a few good horror/thrillers in the indie movie scene).
If you like your movies dark,twisted, mind bending (not in the inception style), good story, beautifully shot maybe you should check out Agnosia, impressive is a word that springs to mind here.

Offical Trailer For Amir Bar-Lev's 'THE TILMAN STORY'

source Yahoo
The Weinstein Company (via Yahoo) have released the feature trailer for Amir Bar-Lev's documentary THE TILMAN STORY.
The documentary follows the life of Pat Tilman a promising American footballer who had a multi-million contract ahead of him who decides to join the army who get stationed in Afghanistan and is tragically killed. The details of how this man died (and like many other soldiers) remains a mystery and sadly his tragic death was manipulated into a propaganda incident.
I'm not American but I have slight inkling about the story but dont know the reasons how this man who just thought it was right to do the what he beleived in serve his country was tragically killed and his death disrespected. According to other movie sites whom have seen this movie (8.5 out of 10 rating at this years sundance), it's a emtional rollercoaster that people have to see.
Sounds like another governmental cover-up, the documentary is going to get a cinematical release in USA on August 20th, as for UK or Ireland there is no word but depending on its sucess stateside we may see a limited release.
Check out the trailer after the break...

Yo!Saigon! Trailer for Hip Hop drama ELECTRIC SAIGON
source TwitchFilm
Saigon Electric is the new indie drama from The Owl and the Sparrow director Stephane Gauger.
Gauger is a big fish in the arthouse-indie cinema network and he's teamed upwith Veitnamese Chanh Phuong Films to produce the county'r first ever hip-hop musical drama which is been lined up for a mid-December release, here's Gauger's description of the movie...
In my wish of telling universal stories with a global outlook and a distinctly Vietnamese point of view, the seeds of "Saigon Electric" were planted. Continuing the themes of my first narrative feature "Owl and the Sparrow", my hope is to create a visceral landscape of the hustle and bustle in modernized Vietnam. More than half of Vietnam's current population is under the age of eighteen, born after the American War. As the doors of the West have opened up to the nation and consumerism weaves its way into the value system, youth culture is seeping onto the streets of Vietnam. Hip-hop, graffiti artists, and punk rock are alive. My wish is to give these teenagers a voice and present to an international audience a fresh new look at the dreams and struggles of Asian youth.
A NewTrailer For Stuart Beattie's Tomorrow: When the War Began
source FirstShowing
Stuart Beattie might not be a recognisable name to some but he's the man who wrote the scripts for the Pirates of The Carribbean movies (arrgh him you say!) and Tomorrow: When the War Began is the Australian's directoral debut.
The movie is based on books of the same name by john Marsden with a few familar faces to British viewers with Caitlin Stasey (Rachel from Neighbours), Lincon Lewis (Geoff- Home & Away) and Rachel Hurd-Wood (Soloman Kane, Dorian Gray, Peter Pan). As usual as this movie is taken from popular books i've not read these books so I would personally see the movie first then read the books so not to be over critical of every little detail, but everyone has a preference .
MGM are skint and recent news that there remake of the 1985 movie is been put on hold (probably forever as they cant get a buyer), this is probably going to be the closest you'll get to a movie very similar to Red Dawn and apart from the odd cheesy over the top action /patriotism this does look like it'll be a good fun adaptation.
No news of a British or even American release date but September the 2nd the movie will be out in Austrailia and New Zealand.

Trailer For Chinese Period Comedy-drama The Dragon and Phoenix Inn
Source FilmSmash
There's not anything I can say on this trailer but its for Chinese/ Hong Kong period comedy THE DRAGON & PHOENIX INN, which has Richie Ren and Barbie Hsu both big names in the chinese cinema. It does look like it has plenty of kong-fu action scenes, plenty of laughs and it does last nearly 5 minutes which isnt unusal for a chinese movie.
anyway no graphics so the trailer is there instead.
Mexican sci-fi noir weirdness, trailer for LA PANTERA NEGRA
source QuietEarth
When you think of film noir, you automatically think 1940's cinema, black&white, pulp fiction some well dressed beautiful woman smoking throw in a bit a bit weirdness as well. Well LA PANTERA NEGRA has all that plus some flying saucers, science fiction pulp thrown in to make it one hell of a weird movie, but do you know what? we do love what we see here.
Shame is i'll probably not end up getting a chance to see it as 'i'm only a blogger nothing more' as a snobbish head up his backside reporter told me at Glasgow Film Festival.
enjoy trailer after the break...
