New Sherlock Holmes Trailer

6 November 2009 5:18 AM, PST | EmpireOnline | See recent EmpireOnline news »

Despite the hoo-hah and the retakes and the rumours, we're pleased to announce the third version of the Downey Jr. and Law Sherlock Holmes is out today - and it ain't too bad by half guv'nor apples and dogs and bones etc.More banter between the detecting duo has been inserted into the mix, which is pleasingly chucklesome and a very welcome addition, as well as more explosions, gunishment and things flying across rooms. Which, as we all know, might not have appeared in the original tales, but somehow seem to work in this new, arse-kicking, throat-grabbing Holmesian world.Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes is out in cinemas come Boxing Day. »

Madonna attempts a movie career again

6 November 2009 2:28 AM, PST | Monsters and Critics | See recent Monsters and Critics news »

Madonna wants to relaunch her movie career. The '4 Minutes' singer - who has starred in a string of cinematic flops, including 2002's 'Swept Away' which saw her and then-husband Guy Ritchie lose half the £6million the movie cost to make and 'The Next Best Thing', which failed to recoup its £15 million budget in 2000 - is working on a script for a new film, but doesn't plan to star in it. She is quoted by gossip website Absolute Now as saying: "I just finished writing a script and I am trying to get funding and casting for it, believe it or not. "It's called 'We' and it's a love story. It is two parallel love stories »

'Twilight' star Jamie Campbell Bower wants Tim Burton to direct 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn'

5 November 2009 8:47 PM, PST | Twilight Examiner | See recent Twilight Examiner news »

Jamie Campbell Bower, who portrays Caius in The Twilight Saga: New Moon, has not, it seems, forgotten the source of his big break in the film industry. You might remember him as Anthony in Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street, and, if you do, you'll know that it was director Tim Burton (as well as the minor detail of phenomenal castmates like Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter) that ushered in Bower's career as a film star. Since then, of course, Bower has continued to make a name for himself with roles in films like RocknRolla (by Guy Ritchie) and Winter In Wartime. He's also been cast as the elusive Gellert Grindelwald in Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part I and Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part II. Yet, when MTV interviewer Eric Ditzian asked Bower who he'd pick as director of the not-yet-officially-greenlit The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn (which, »

Has 'Prince of Persia' Nailed What It Means to be a Video Game Adaptation?

Jake Gyllenhaal puts on his sexy face in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

Photo: Walt Disney Pictures I'm not much of a gamer, and that may in fact be an understatement considering in the last few years the only games I have played and finished are "Gears of War," "Burnout," "Uncharted," "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" and just a couple of days ago "Uncharted 2." I don't know where that places me in the gamer revolution, but considering that's about 6 years of gaming outside of playing a little "Tiger Woods," "NBA Street" and "Hot Shots Golf" I would say I am on the outside looking in. However, I'd like to think I know enough to at least open up a discussion concerning the growing trend of adapting video games into feature films, primarily based on the recently released trailer for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, a film »

Action-Packed Fourth Sherlock Holmes Trailer

5 November 2009 8:40 AM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

These Sherlock Holmes trailers just keep on coming, don’t they? An action-packed fourth one has appeared online over at MTV, and we have it here for your viewing pleasure. We’ve seen plenty of action in all the other trailers for the movie – including explosions, chases and hand-to-hand combat – but this latest trailer really turns up the action significantly.

Just as a reminder, Sherlock Holmes stars Robert Downey Jr. as the titular detective, and it co-stars Jude Law as his faithful assistant, Dr. Watson. Mark Strong plays the villain, Lord Blackwood and Rachel McAdams is the beautiful love interest, Irene Adler. Directed by Guy Ritchie (Snatch, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels), this fresh take on the classic detective character makes use of some things not seen in most Holmes tellings, namely his often-forgotten martial arts skills.

 

And now here’s the latest Sherlock Holmes trailer, courtesy of Trailer »

Third Trailer for Sherlock Holmes Hits The Web

5 November 2009 5:40 AM, PST | FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news »

The third (and final?) trailer for Guy Ritchie's upcoming retelling of the classic stories about the famous British detective Sherlock Holmes, has hit the web. Without having seen it (I prefer to know as little about a movie as possible before I see it, if it's one I'm interested in) I can tell as much as it does show a good amount of new footage from the film, while also showing a more polished look in general, than the previous two trailers. So with all the SFX having gone through the various post-production touch ups, it now seems like the movie is about ready. Sherlock Holmes hits the streets on December 25th. Watch the trailer after the jump.

New Sherlock Holmes trailer is here!

5 November 2009 12:57 AM, PST | TotalFilm | See recent TotalFilm news »

Another new trailer for Guy Ritchie's comedy/action-fueled take on Sherlock Holmes has arrived online and you can inspect it below. There are a few more story fragments and a snippet or two of fresh footage, but it's largely what we've seen before, albeit with the action ramped up and the music more boisterous - Robert Downey Jr's Holmes being a smart arse, Jude Law's Watson getting infuriated, Mark Strong's villainous Lord Blackwood making ominous threats. We doubt anyone's mind will really be changed by this one - those who are ready...

Cool new 'Sherlock Holmes' trailer delivers!

5 November 2009 12:12 AM, PST | screeninglog.com | See recent screeninglog news »

The more I see of Guy Ritchie's upcoming "Sherlock Holmes" adventure, the more I'm excited to see this film. A brand-new trailer just exploded onto the Web, and you can watch it after the jump.

As you can see below, this new trailer features a whole bunch of new footage, most of which looks really cool. It's a visually interesting and action-packed preview that works for me on several levels.

The focus of this preview is obviously the particular relationship between Holmes and Watson, and it looks like Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law really have what it takes to pull this off. »

More Fights and Explosions Packed in New Jude Law's 'Sherlock Holmes' Trailer

4 November 2009 8:29 PM, PST | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »

On Wednesday, November 4, MTV has exclusively premiered a new trailer for Christmas' movie "Sherlock Holmes". The footage contains all kind of fights, including gunfights, sword fights, fistfights, lovers' fights, and fights involving electrocution. Some parts of the clip, moreover, offer glimpses of explosions, near-death experiences, and horse-carriage races that appear to top out at Ferrari-level speeds.

Beside all of those action scenes, the bromance between Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr. is also highlighted in the clip. Jude has been booked to star as Dr. John Watson, while the "Iron Man" star portrays the titular character, Sherlock Holmes.

As of late, Robert Downey Jr. dished on his role on "Sherlock Holmes", saying "He's a total badass." The 44-year-old movie star then elaborated, "He thinks through all eventualities, possibilities and counterattacks when he's fighting, so he actually has the fight worked out before he starts."

Final ‘Sherlock Holmes’ Trailer

4 November 2009 7:48 PM, PST | newsinfilm.com | See recent newsinfilm news »

A few days ago I posted a script review of Warner Bros’ Sherlock Holmes. While I was asked to politely remove it a short time later, I think I can still safely say I thought the script (and subsequently the movie) looks like fun. (I hope that’s okay.)

Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law play Holmes and Dr. Watson in a little Victorian era “bromance,” plus Mark Strong and Rachel McAdams all under the direction of stylish filmmaker Guy Ritchie.

Having said that, the trailer looks excellent but probably gives away too much of the movie. One of the twists, the climax, and many of the action sequences are right there in the two and a half minutes of video. Don’t you just hate it when they do that?

Warners is hoping for a franchise with this one and so far it looks like they’ve struck the right chord, »

Yet Another 'Sherlock Holmes' Trailer

4 November 2009 3:31 PM, PST | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »

There are a few more scenes hinted at in the latest Sherlock Holmes trailer, and one of them - what appears to be a perilous fencing duel atop a bridge - could be the showstopper this one really needs. Of course, it's not all new, and in fact, a few of the clips dogeared together here are starting to feel tired already, because they've been in all the footage we've seen over the past however many months.

I think part of that burnout might stem from the fact that Warner Bros. began marketing a December 25th release back when it was still supposed to be a November 20th start. Whatever it is, I almost didn't post this trailer just because so much of it is being regurgitated. But in the end, there are a few extended versions of things we've seen, a couple new jokes, and a very brief glimpse »
