This movie is so bad. Maybe not Quest of Peace bad, but it’s up there. Though having said that, the International cut is much better than the North American one, and also created a huge crush for me on the Supergirl character (yes I know she’s not real). Helen Slater, Peter O’Toole and Faye…

Trailer Tracks: Spies Like Us (1985) – John Landis
This one came along at just the right time in my life, and me and my friends in Bermuda just played this movie to death! Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroyd were hilarious to us, and Vanessa Angel definitely caught our eye. We must have driven the ‘dick fer’ joke into the ground alongside the…
Trailer Tracks: The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988) – Terry Gilliam
This was my introduction to the world of Terry Gilliam, as I discovered Monty Python late in life, and then started digging up other works that the Pythons had been involved in. And I love this film, it’s been forever since I’ve seen it, so it may be high time to do so, but…
Trailer Tracks: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) – Steve Barron
This trailer was an obvious choice to pair up with today’s post, and definitely conveys the sense of fun that seemed to permeate the television series, and no doubt, helped sell a lot more toys. I’m dubious about the new film, but we’ll see I guess.
Trailer Tracks: The Hunger Games – Mockingjay Part I (2014) – Francis Lawrence
I’ve read the books, the first two movies have been enjoyable, the second more than the first, so I’m looking forward to seeing how the first part of Book III translates to the screen this November! And you know… Jennifer Lawrence!
Trailer tracks: The Road Warrior (1981) – George Miller
Now that the new trailer for Mad Max: Fury Road has been unveiled, I thought it would be kind of cool to take a look back at the trailer for the second film ion the original series. I am looking forward to seeing how the new one plays, but this one is still going…
Trailer Tracks: Big Hero 6 (2014) – Don Hall & Chris Williams
I don’t know much about this Marvel property, but I’m looking forward to see what Disney does it, and this does look like a lot of fun… I’ll be seeing this one when it comes out in November!
Trailer Tracks: Crimson Tide (1995) – Tony Scott
I love Tony Scott films, and I miss his work. This one, a submarine thriller featuring Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman, along with Viggo Mortensen, has been a long time favorite.
Trailer Tracks: Jurassic Park (1993) – Steven Spielberg
I remember ‘borrowing permanently’ the hardcover version of Michael Crichton’s book from my mom as soon as I heard Spielberg had bought the rights to it, and was totally pumped to see dinosaurs brought to life on the big screen, and even now, this movie fails to disappoint. I also love that this teaser trailer doesn’t…
Trailer Tracks: Blue Thunder (1983) – John Badham
It seemed kind of fitting today to post the trailer for Blue Thunder starring Roy Scheider and Malcolm McDowell. I remember seeing the movie shortly after it came out, and then, along comes Airwolf as a television series… Not to be outdone, and since they already had a helicopter, a short-lived Blue Thunder series…
