I love trailers. The previews are one of the best parts of the movie going experience. If you are one of those people that are late to movies so you miss the trailers, I hold a grudge against you if you make me miss them. However, let me say they have gotten out of control. [...]
Having let many a “Before the Movie” post fall by the wayside as I made my way through the holiday movie season, I’ve decided it is time to play catchup. Here are just a few of the trailers to hit movie theaters in the early days of 2013.
As always, information from IMDb, video from [...]
Finally I got to see some new trailers on the big screen (along with some not so new ones). In order of excitement and anticipation-
Guillermo del Toro’s Mama
One of the few movie trailers for scary movies that actually have scared me. I got goosebumps and freaked out during this trailer. I eagerly am awaiting [...]
A young girl buys an antique box at a yard sale, unaware that inside the collectible lives a malicious ancient spirit. The girl’s father teams with his ex-wife to find a way to end the curse upon their child. Directed by Ole Bornedal; written by Juliet [...]
Sorry I’m a bit late with my round up of the trailers shown before The Bourne Legacy, folks. My intense Renner-crush took a few days to wear off enough to leave room for other thoughts.
Three of the previews shown in my theater have been covered in other Before the Movie posts, but the four [...]

Not because they are bad, just because we’ve seen them all before. The Dark Knight Rises is the perfect example [...]
Safety Not Guaranteed is a comedy-drama-maybe-sci-fi movie from relatively “new” director Colin Trevorrow. The cast is headed up by Aubrey Piaza (Parks and Rec), Jake M. Johnson (New Girl) and Karan Soni, as three reporters at “Seattle Magazine” sent on assignment to find the writer of [...]
Magic Mike brought all the ladies to the yard, this past weekend. 74% of the $39.2 million spent on the unexpectedly layered, semi-autobiographical flick staring Channing Tatum, came from the pockets of women. I was one of those women (of course). The movie is full of handsome men, honest performances, some humor and some depth, [...]
Just got back from Prometheus and it did not disappoint. You can find my review by clicking here. Below are the trailers shown in my theater before the movie. Note – I did not see the 3D version and that almost always means different trailers [...]
