		<description><![CDATA[Man oh man, I want to embrace the upcoming Thor movie in the worst way, and for three main reasons: First, I dig superhero movies, even though I never had a fondness for Marvel or Thor. Second, I&#8217;m keen on seeing how an unorthodox choice for director &#8211; Kenneth Branagh (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets) &#8211; stacks up to the gold standard of Nolan and Favreau. Lastly, even though they cast the guy off the Brawny paper towels package as Thor (and his beard and superhero mullet look super lame), the rest of the cast grabs my interest. Yeah, I&#8217;m talking about Anthony Hopkins (The Rite), Natalie Portman (Black Swan), Colm Feore (The Chronicles of Riddick), Stellan Skarsgård (Angels &#38; Demons), Rene Russo (Yours, Mine and Ours) and Kat Dennings (Nick and Norah&#8217;s Infinite Playlist). Marvel regulars Samuel L. Jackson, as Nick Fury, and Clark Gregg, as Agent Coulson, show up in Thor, as well. Check out the trailer after the jump and let me know your thoughts. Thor hits theaters on May 6, 2011 and will also be available, sadly, in 3D.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Wolfman, Universal Pictures’ remake of the 1941 classic, is a taut backlot tram tour of a dour, sunless 1880s England, complete with cobweb-infested castles, fog-filled cemeteries and forests, and topped with blood-soaked werewolves that would make the phony Lycans in the Twilight Saga quiver in their own puppy piddle. Simply put, The Wolfman is a devilishly fun haunted house thrill ride, only with more severed limbs, decapitations, popped out eyes, disembowelments and torn flesh. The movie opens, like the original, with the poem: Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright. And then we happen upon Gwen Conliffe (Emily Blunt) writing a letter to Lawrence Talbot (Benicio Del Toro), asking him to return to his childhood home of Blackmoor to aide in the search for his brother, her fiancé. Lawrence, a stage actor who, since leaving home, has been living in New York City, leaves London immediately. When he arrives at Blackmoor he is greeted by his father, Sir John (Anthony Hopkins), and is told his brother’s body was found. But we already know this because we saw his face slashed and his stomach torn open by a werewolf. Lawrence tells Gwen he won’t rest until he figures out what happened to his brother. Lawrence’s investigations lead him to a gypsy camp deep in the woods. He meets with a creepy old woman named Maleva (Geraldine Chaplin) who tells him he is cursed and in danger. Just then a ruckus breaks out in the camp between some villagers and the gypsies, and, probably because it looks like a human Chuck-A-Rama, a werewolf zips through the encampment, killing without regard. Lawrence watches as the beast charges after a young boy and, while trying to bring the boy to safety, is attacked and bitten by the creature. The gypsies sew him up and bring him back to his father, presumably to die. But ol’ Lawrence doesn’t croak, in fact he heals up like Superman and in the process raises the suspicions of the townsfolk, who want to tie him up during the next full moon. His rapid recovery coupled with the murders in Blackmoor also catch the eye of Scotland Yard inspector Francis Aberline (Hugo Weaving), who is convinced the locals are nutty and that Lawrence is simply a gifted serial killer avoiding capture. Still, despite his unbelief, Aberline’s worst nightmares are realized when he happens upon the gruesome aftermath of Lawrence’s first transformation. The next morning his Sir John hands Lawrence, covered in blood and torn clothes, over to Aberline, who takes him into custody. There’s more to the story, but to go further would be risking spoilers and I don’t want to ruin the movie for anyone planning a screening. However, Lawrence is committed to an insane asylum and given the terrible truths we learn during his stay, the last act of the film is built on the wings...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Saw these new posters for February 2010&#8242;s The Wolfman today and I thought I&#8217;d share the goodness with AATM readers. As we&#8217;ve chronicled in previous posts, The Wolfman is a remake of the 1941 classic and stars Benicio &#8220;My Wolf Hair is not Make-Up&#8221; Del Toro (Things We Lost in the Fire), Anthony Hopkins (Beowulf), Emily Blunt (Sunshine Cleaning) and Hugo Weaving (V for Vendetta). And while the most recent trailer is pretty sweet, I&#8217;d say I&#8217;m 50/50 on these posters. The hairy face one with Del Toro as the title character isn&#8217;t too bad, but the second is pretty lame. Sure the title gives it away, but if I didn&#8217;t know better, I&#8217;d assume Emily Blunt was hiding in the woods fearing a fierce anal probing from The Fourth Kind aliens. Click The Wolfman pictures below to ginormasize them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been tepid thus far on my anticipation of and my desire to see The Wolfman, but this new, edgier, darker trailer has piqued my interest enough that I have circled February 12, 2010 on my calendar. Not literally, of course. I&#8217;m not that nerdy, but you get my point. Delays in the release of The Wolfman have fueled my skepticism, and I&#8217;m also not a big fan of Joe Johnston (although I did like October Sky), but a cast of Benicio Del Toro (Things We Lost in the Fire), Anthony Hopkins (Fracture), Emily Blunt (The Devil Wears Prada) and Hugo Weaving (V for Vendetta) is definitely a bonus for this remake of the 1941 classic. I have a feeling this is going to be rated PG-13, but in my heart of hearts, I hope for an R rating. I&#8217;m not pining for an R so I can see limbs torn off and intestines gobbled up, but a PG-13 usually means CGI that borders on silly and bloodless violence propped up by a weak story and plot. That might be stereotyping somewhat because there are PG-13 movies that have meshed those elements &#8211; The Lord of The Rings is the shining example &#8211; but I can&#8217;t help fear the worst. Check out the trailer below and give us your opinion. Is this going to rock or is this going to suck?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not too long ago, Andy gave you the sad news that The Wolf Man, the tender coming of age story about a man, his wolf bite and the people he subsequently gnaws to death, would be pushed back from a fall release to the depressing and bitter-cold wasteland of winter 2010. You yawned. But that&#8217;s OK! Despite it&#8217;s setback, the trailer for the period-set Wolf Man revival has arrived, begging the question: Why did werewolf transformations look so much better in the 80s before CGI? I know, but I&#8217;m not telling. However, we&#8217;d love to hear you tell us what you think of the project now that you&#8217;ve seen the trailer. Still yawning? Intrigued? Prompted to introduce the Wolf Man&#8217;s back to the miracles of Gillette&#8217;s Fusion razor technology? Do tell.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 2006, Universal Pictures announced they were remaking the 1941 horror classic &#8220;The Wolf Man&#8221; (that starred Lon Cheney, Jr &#8211; no relation to Dick, and Béla Lugosi) and had the hariest man in Mexico, Benicio del Toro, cast as the lead lycan, Lawrence Talbot. &#8220;The Wolfman&#8221; was given a release date of November 2008 and subsequently things went down the pooper. Original director, Mark Romenak, left the movie because of &#8220;creative&#8221; differences and Joe Johnston (&#8220;Jumanji,&#8221; &#8220;Jurassic Park III&#8221;) was brought in to finish the job. The release date was changed to November 6, 2009. Now we have news the date has changed yet again to February 12, 2010. So this begs the question, is this film, with a seemingly stellar cast (del Toro, Emily Blunt, Anthony Hopkins, Hugo Weaving) simply being cared for with delicate hands &#8211; meaning the studio wants to put out the best product possible, or is this a project that has been doomed from the start of it&#8217;s first &#8220;creative&#8221; differences? I tend to gravitate to the latter scenario, especially with the release in February, which traditionally is reserved for movies that time forgot and studios wish to wash their hands of. That&#8217;s my take, but I don&#8217;t claim to have a spycam into Universal&#8217;s marketing boardroom, either. What&#8217;s your take? Any interest in seeing a remake of &#8220;The Wolf Man?&#8221;]]></description>
