Super Bowl Trailers: ‘The Avengers’ and ‘G.I. Joe: Retaliation’

These are the moments when my inner fangirl jumps out and just wants to run around the street and knock everyones door and say, “Have you seen the new trailer for The Avengers?” For so long I’ve loved Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man and now Chris Hemsworth as Thor and lest we forget, Chris Evans as Captain America— and NOW they are all together in one film?!

They better clear the IMAX theater and let me watch on my own, I will probably cheer throughout the entire film. #notlying

Let me take a second to catch my breath…..

Another trailer that aired during tonights Super Bowl extravaganza was the one for G.I. Joe: Retaliation. After watching the first G.I. Joe I was sure that I would NEVER want to see another one but who can say no to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Channing Tatum?

I am constantly reminded of how the first one didn’t look so bad on during the trailers so I will try not to get too excited.

Without further ado, here are the trailers!

Daniel Radcliffe smiles at ‘The Woman in Black’ premiere in NYC

It seems like only yesterday that Daniel Radcliffe made his Harry Potter debut in The Sorcerer’s Stone at the age of eleven. Now he has completed the series and has moved on to a very different film, one I won’t even be able to watch!

Radcliffe was photographed at a special screening of The Woman In Black held at AMC Loews Lincoln Square 13 theater on January 30, 2012 in New York City. The 22-year-old looked handsome in a casual ensemble while posing for photographers and fielding questions from reporters.

Daniel stars as Arthur Kipps, a widowed lawyer whose grief has endangered his career. When he is sent to a remote village to sort out the affairs of a recently deceased eccentric, it soon becomes clear that everyone in the town is keeping a terrible secret.

Although the locals try to hide the town’s tragic history from Kipps, he soon learns that his client’s house is haunted by the ghost of a woman who is looking for someone and something she had lost, and until she does, no one is safe from her vengeance.

I can barely read that without hiding under the blanket! I’m not a horror film fan and would probably die of a heart attack if I saw this so for those of you that get to watch it let me know how it is!

The Woman in Black hits theaters on February 3rd.

Chris Pine and Tom Hardy premiere ‘This Means War’ in London

There is so much hotness going on in these images that I’m surprised it has not overheated my laptop! Chris Pine and Tom Hardy attended the UK premiere of This Means War held at the Odeon Kensington on Monday, January 30th, 2012 in London, England.

Joining the boys was co-star Reese Witherspoon who looked stunning in a short black & green sequined dress and a pair of black pumps. Directo McG posed with his all-cast on the red carpet ahead of its February 14th release.

The action comedy follows two of the world’s deadliest CIA operatives who are inseparable partners and best friends – until they discover that they’ve fallen in love with the same woman. Deciding to keep their friendship a secret from her, they pull out their full arsenal of fighting skills and high-tech gadgetry to defeat their greatest enemy – each other.

Its about time someone combined fun, sexy, and thrilling into one film! Check out the trailer below.

Watch Now: Matthew Broderick’s Ferris Bueller ad for Honda

I won’t deny it but aside from the commercials and half-time show, I don’t normally look forward to watching the Super Bowl. And with all the advertisements being released so early this year, I may have no other reason to tune in than to watch my girl Madonna’s performance!

This morning we shared David Beckham’s H&M bodywear commercial and now we have the Ferris Bueller tribute ad featuring Matthew Broderick by Honda entitled, “Matthew’s Day Off.”

Broderick is up to his old antics again except now he is an adult with a busy film career. The 49-year-old calls in sick from a shoot then proceeds to climb into his Honda CRV for a day of fun. Fans of the 1986 will no doubt LOVE this homage to the original.

Can you spot all the movie references?

Will Ferrell And Zach Galifianakis Take Their ‘Dog Fight’ to Chinatown

When you put Zach Galifianakis in a movie, you can expect hilarity to ensue! The funnyman teamed up with fellow comedian Will Ferrell to shoot scenes from his new movie Dog Fight on Friday, January 27th, 2012 in New Orleans, Louisiana. Galifianakis was dressed up in Chinese robes as he offered Ferrell’s character a ride on his bike.

In this Jay Roach directed comedy, Will and Zach star as rival politicians running for a congressional seat in a small North Carolina district.

The film also stars Jason Sudeikis, Dylan McDermott, John Lithgow, Dan Aykroyd, and Brian Cox.

Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana keep their distance at Sundance

If you didn’t know any better, you’d think Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana had no fire burning between them. But since we all know better its pretty cute to see them trying to keep their distance while promoting their new film!

The pretty pair were joined by co-star Dennis Quaid (who acted like a buffer by sitting between them during a press conference) for the movie, The Words at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah on Thursday, January 26th, 2012.

The plot is a bit confusing to explain ( /Film calls it “Inception with stories instead of dreams”) so I rather give you the one NYMag.com used. “Dennis Quaid is a successful author who woos Olivia Wilde with his new book about … wannabe author Bradley Cooper, who (along with wife Zoe Saldana) literally stumbles upon an amazing, forgotten story that he passes off as his own … even though it was really written by Jeremy Irons, who penned it and lost it decades ago (when he was played by Ben Barnes).”

Read it again and you will understand it!

With Zoe playing hunky Bradley’s love interest, it’s no wonder they are hot-and-heavy in real life!  Love this couple!

Amanda Seyfried and Juno Temple have a laugh on set of ‘Lovelace’

With all the images that have been coming from the set of the Linda Lovelace biopic, I feel as if I’ve already seen most of the movie! Lead actress Amanda Seyfried was spotted in 70′s garb alongside co-stars Juno Temple and Peter Sarsgaard on Wednesday, January 25th, 2012 in Los Angeles, California.

Lovelace tells the story of reformed porn star Linda Lovelace who was used and abused by the industry at the behest of her coercive husband Chuck Traynor (Sarsgaard), before taking control of her life.

It was just announced yesterday that former Big Love star Chloë Sevigny had been added to the cast! She is set to play “a feminist journalist assigned to write a story about Lovelace,” according to Deadline.com.

Sadly the film did lose Demi Moore this week, she dropped out due to unforeseen personal issues. She was set to play the role of feminist Gloria Steinem.

No word yet on who will replace her.
