Trailerrific: Westworld

August 18th, 2015

This won’t air until next year, but I love the look of this teaser trailer!

It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these posts, but I thought I should try to revive it again. Each month I’ll share some of the upcoming movies that are being released in cinemas that I’m looking forward to.

Furious 7

Do I even need to explain what Fast & Furious 7 is? If you’ve been living without TV or the internet for the past 14 years, it’s the 7th instalment of the widely popular heist and street racing movie series. I’ve always enjoyed the movies; the plot tends to be rather silly, but I always like how they’ve pretty much embraced their over-the-topness.

Release Date: Friday 3rd April

While We’re Young

This stars Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts as a middle-aged couple, who’s career and marriage are overturned when a disarming young couple enters their lives. The trailer had some funny moments in it, so really curious to see how the movie turns out!

Release Date: Friday 3rd April

The Water Diviner

I’ve seen a lot of tweets from people who loved this movie, so definitely going on my to-watch-list. Based on the book of the same name, it’s set in 1919, after the end of World War 1. An Australian farmer, Connor (Russell Crowe), travels to Turkey to find out what happened to his three sons, who went missing during the Battle of Gallipoli.

Release Date: Friday 3rd April

The Last Five Years

I’m a sucker for musicals, plus I love Anna Kendrick’s and Jeremy Jordan’s voices! I haven’t seen the Broadway musical the movie is based on (mainly cause it never hit London), but it’s about the five-year relationship between a rising novelist and a struggling actress.

Release Date: Friday 17th April

So I realize I pretty much have a weak spot for any t-shirt designs mashing up Studio Ghibli movies with any-other-geeky-property. The one I currently really want? The Guardian’s Delivery Service:

It’s on sale (today only!) at TeeFury as part of their battle, but it’s loosing against Galaxy Forest Conservation Program:

Trailerrific: Into The Woods

November 6th, 2014

I’m not familiar with the musical this movie is based on, but this looks like fun!

Starring Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt, James Corden, Anna Kendrick and Chris Pine, “Into the Woods” is a humorous and heartfelt musical that follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel—all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.

Can’t. Wait.

Sigh. I’m going to have “I’ve got no strings” stuck in my head for the entire day now, aren’t I?

I love Stitch. Ever since I saw Lilo & Stitch 12 years ago, he’s been one of my favourite Disney characters; I even got to pose with him at Disney World!

Add to that my love of Firefly and of course I neeeeed to get this tee:

It’s only $20 at Teepublic.

This has been making the internet rounds lately, but it’s too good not to share here:

I love the Haunted Mansion ride at Disney, so seeing it mashed up with Star Wars: awesome!

The tee is (as usual with TeeFury) available for just one day for $11. It’s designed by Karen Hallion:

This design was inspired by the Haunted Mansion ride at the theme park, which is my all-time favorite ride. The ballerina in the stretching room portraits always reminded me of the Princess because of her buns, so I decided to do a mash-up series of Star Wars and those portraits. This is the first in the series and I had so much fun integrating Star Wars elements into this design.

Ooh, I can’t wait to see what the other three Haunted Star Wars designs look like!

I finally went to see Frozen yesterday and I loved it! One of my favourite moments of the movie is Idina Menzel’s rendition of Let It Go:
