The release date for this is inching nearer and nearer, just over a month now from April 2nd. I have to admit I can’t wait, I love me a good sword and sandal film, I’m spoiled for choice this year with this, Centurion and Robin Hood. It’s not gonna be very thought provoking but I’m sure it would be full of action and entertaining. Liam Neeson saying ‘release the Kraken’ is epic enough for me.
I really like the looks of this, I was very impressed and surprised by the trailer, I’ve always liked a good light hearted, stylised action film that doesn’t take itself to seriously. It does look a bit like an updated version of the A Team but for me I was far more impressed by The Losers trailer than The A Team trailer. This TV Spot just adds to my interest. It looks very comic bookish if that’s a word, I like that 
An explosive tale of double cross and revenge, “The Losers” centers upon the members of an elite U.S. Special Forces unit sent into the Bolivian jungle on a search and destroy mission. The team—Clay (Morgan), Jensen (Evans), Roque (Elba), Pooch (Short) and Cougar (Jaenada)—find themselves the target of a lethal betrayal instigated from inside by a powerful enemy known only as Max (Patric). Presumed dead, the group makes plans to even the score when they’re joined by the mysterious Aisha (Saldana), a beautiful operative with her own agenda. Working together, they must remain deep undercover while tracking the heavily-guarded Max, a ruthless man bent on embroiling the world in a new high-tech global war. Losers is directed by Sylvain White and stars Zoe Saldana, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Chris Evans, Idris Elba and Columbus Short.
Disney unveiled new TV Spot’s for Alice In Wonderland and Prince Perisa last night during the Super Bowl, which was seen by over 100 million people worldwide, so you know they paid some $$$$ for ad space! I’ve got mild interest in both of these, I’ve been a bit underwhelmed by some of Tim Burton’s latest work (Sweeney Todd, Charley and the Chocolate Factory, Planet Of The Apes). I’ve got no doubts it will be visually stunning, the cast is great as well (who doesn’t like Stephen Fry), hopefully it will be a return to form. The Prince Of Persia film does look like a lot of fun, I just hope it’s not a complete cgi fest, the TV spot slightly increased my interest.

Yahoo have debuted the new TV Spot for Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood. I’ve been keeping my eye on this, for me this is what Ridley Scott does best, I loved Gladiator and Kingdom Of Heaven, he’s got epics mastered. Russell Crowe is always great in these sort of roles, to be honest though his English accent sounded very dodgy, Don Cheadle in Oceans 13′esq (Don Cheadle’s great but he can’t be forgiven). And yes it does look a bit like Gladiator with bows and arrows.
In Robin Hood, the Earl of Huntington (Crowe) has returned to his North English village after fighting in the Third Crusade. Upon arrival, the nobleman and his servants discover the oppression caused by Nottingham’s new Sheriff (Matthew Macfadyen). Robin along with his band of Merry Men use their intelligence and military skills to free his home village from tyranny and corruption by taking back what is rightfully his. Robin must also win the affection of the recently widowed Maid Marian (Blanchett), while attempting to lead a successful revolt.
