Teaser Poster For Robert Rodriguez’s ‘Machete’ Sequel ‘Machete Kills’
Feb 9th
In ancient Mesopotamian there is a legend that one day a child will be born from a dragon and vanquish evil from the world. That man is not Danny Trejo, because Danny killed that man…..with a sock and a Mars bar. Moving swiftly on, this sales poster has emerged online, courtesy of Comingsoon, for Robert Rodriguez’s ‘Machete’ sequel, ‘Machete Kills.’
The exploitation pic is said to have Machete teaming with the U.S. Government to take on a Mexican drug cartel and a James Bond-style villain who seeks world domination with a satellite weapon. Rodriguez is planning a April shoot for ‘Machete Kills,’ which sees the return Danny Trejo to the character he played in a fake trailer featured in ‘Grindhouse’ and the original 2010 film. ‘Machete Kills’ will reportedly feature a Grindhouse-style trailer for a third entry in the ‘Machete’ franchise, ‘Machete Kills Again… In Space!’ Expect more details regarding ‘Machete Kills’ soon. I’m stoked for this!
‘Spy Kids: All the Time in the World’ Trailer – Starring Jessica Alba, Jeremy Piven & Joel McHale
May 31st
Look, I fully understand this film is not targeted towards me, yes it’s a kids movie, but damn this film look so bad, it’s taken a left past good, went across hilariously-terrible junction, took a sharp right at awful, before it halted abruptly at horrendous-but-awesomely-good-dreadfulness. I’m a fan of Robert Rodriguez as well, PLEASE STOP SIR. ‘Spy Kids: All the Time in the World’ stars Jessica Alba, Jeremy Piven, Joel McHale, Rowan Blanchard, Mason Cook, Antonio Banderas, Danny Trejo, Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara. It’s set for release in 3D and 2D theaters on August 19th.
On the surface, Marissa Cortez Wilson (Jessica Alba) has it all…married to a famous spy hunting television reporter, a new baby and intelligent twin step kids. But in reality, trying to mother Rebecca (Rowan Blanchard) and Cecil (Mason Cook), who clearly don’t want her around, is her toughest challenge yet. Also, her husband, Wilbur (Joel McHale), wouldn’t know a spy if he lived with one which is exactly the case – Marissa’s a retired secret agent.
Marissa’s world is turned upside down when the maniacal Timekeeper (Jeremy Piven) threatens to take over the planet and she’s called back into action by the head of OSS, home of the greatest spies and where the now-defunct Spy Kids division was created. With Armageddon quickly approaching, Rebecca and Cecil are thrust into action when they learn their boring stepmom was once a top agent and now the world’s most competitive ten year olds are forced to put their bickering aside and rely on their wits. With a little help from a couple of very familiar Spy Kids, Carmen (Alexa Vega) and Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara), and some mind-blowing gadgets, they just may be able to save the world and possibly bring their family together while they’re at it.

Jun 30th
I’m not even gonna watch these three clips to be honest, I’m stoked for this already. Over time I’ve become more and more invested in this film, I’ve come to the point where I don’t actually wanna see anymore, I want to go into the film as open minded as possible. If you’re still not convinced, or your unlike me and you want to see more of the flick, check out the three clips below.
A bold new chapter in the Predator universe, Predators was shot on location under Rodriguez’s creative auspices at the filmmaker’s Austin-based Troublemaker Studios, and is directed by Nimród Antal. The film stars Adrien Brody as Royce, a mercenary who reluctantly leads a group of elite warriors who come to realize they’ve been brought together on an alien planet… as prey. With the exception of a disgraced physician, they are all cold-blooded killers – mercenaries, Yakuza, convicts, death squad members – human “predators” that are now being systemically hunted and eliminated by a new breed of alien Predators. In addition to Adrien Brody, the film stars Topher Grace, Alice Braga, and Laurence Fishburne. Co-starring are Walton Goggins, Danny Trejo, Oleg Taktarov and Mahershalalhashbaz Ali. Predators was written by Alex Litvak & Mike Finch based upon characters created by Jim Thomas & John Thomas. The producers are Robert Rodriguez and Elizabeth Avellàn.

This TV spot is 30 seconds of awesomeness wrapped in steroids…….I really hope this film lives up to the hype, I wasn’t a fan of the idea when it was first announced, but I’ve been fully won over now. The rapid ‘this film has not been rated’ scares me though, this film can’t be rated anything less than a 15, please!
