Trailers Without Pity: Public Enemies
It's a gangster movie, see? Starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale, see? Directed by Michael Mann, see? You don't see? Well, see what multi-tasking Smallville recapper Omar Gallaga and his brother Pablo think about the new trailer for Public Enemies ("Sexy!" "Oscar-worthy!" "Mustache-rific!") in the latest installment of "Trailers Without Pity," which we have embedded for your viewing convenience after the jump. It's got Marion Cotillard in it! And tommy guns!
Man, that Judd Apatow has a penchant for on-the-nose titles, doesn't he? The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up and now Funny People. If you need to know what's going on in the movie, it's right there in the title! Not satisfied with a two-word description, the Bros. Gallaga have taken a movie buff's eye for detail to the trailer for the next Apatow flick and broken it down for the layman, pointing out why it looks funny, why it doesn't look funny and why this whole exercise smacks of desperation. Check out the new installment of "Trailers Without Pity" below, then check out other upcoming movie trailers they've dissected -- including Star Trek, Knowing and G.I. Joe -- in our video library!
Who better than Michael Bay to direct the Transformers movie? Transformers are more than meet the eye, and Michael Bay movies are more than the eye can process! Seriously, Bay throws more explosions and moving robot parts up on the screen than the human eye can handle, which made it difficult for the Gallaga Bros. to bring you their latest installment of "Trailers Without Pity," their video series dedicated to breaking down movie trailers for the layperson. In this installment, Omar suffers a Michael Bayeurism while helping his brother Pablo explain what's going on in the trailer for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Check out the video and see whether he lives or dies after the jump.
Trailers Without Pity: G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
You've seen the costumes. You've heard the nerd complaints. You may have even seen The Mummy 3. But now we've all seen the trailer for G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, directed by Mummy helmer Stephen Sommers, and... it doesn't look half-bad! Sure, the Joes all wear black instead of green camo and sailor suits, and Destro doesn't seem to have a mask yet, but Snake Eyes looks pretty damn cool, and the Baroness is hot in a Sienna Millerish kinda way. The Gallaga brothers thought it looked pretty neat, too, and they're hardcore G.I. Joe fans -- check out their latest episode of Trailers Without Pity, in which they break down the Joe trailer for newbies and fans alike. Watch it after the jump!
Okay, normally we make fun of Nicolas Cage movies, but his newest one doesn't look half bad. Take his underwhelming Next, add a little Final Destination, some Mothman Prophecies and a smidge of The Day After Tomorrow... Okay, that does sound bad. But the trailer somehow makes it work. What's more, all of these elements (plane crashes, magical numbers that predict future events, whispering strangers in the woods) add up to what feels like a big episode of Lost, and that can't be all bad, can it? The Gallaga brothers may not buy into our Lost comparison, but they have their own take on the trailer in their latest video. Check out the new "Trailers Without Pity" after the jump!
Everybody loves monsters and aliens. After all, they've been making movies about monsters since movies were invented, and aliens since aliens were invented! So it's about time that someone decided to make them fight. In 3-D, no less! The Super Gallaga Bros. have released their latest trailer review, this time of Dreamworks' Monsters vs. Aliens, and it's almost as funny as the trailer makes the movie look. Almost. They nearly put themselves over with "happy eye boogers," but we'll let you be the judge. See the newest episode of "Trailers Without Pity" after the jump!
Wolverine: X-Man on Fire
In comics and on the screen, Wolverine has been the most popular X-Man for years. In fact, it could be argued that the first two X-Men movies were de facto Wolverine films. But now he's making it official, with the first movie to actually put his name on the marquee, X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Since his origin is one of the most mysterious (read: sexy) things about him, all signs point to this being a pretty amazing movie. But it's hard to tell from just the trailer, unless you're an über-nerd with a stack of Wolverine comics in your closet. Luckily, nerd-scholars Omar G. and Pablo G. are here to explain everything to us in their latest installment of "Trailers Without Pity"! See the video after the jump.
