As mentioned yesterday, this banner goes along with a teaser trailer attached to tonight's Dictator opening, and then Ron Burgundy will go away to for a couple years before we ever see the sequel that I still can't believe is happening. So get teased, but not too teased. Just right teased.]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/anchorman-2-poster-wears-some-familiar-s.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/anchorman-2-poster-wears-some-familiar-s.php anchorman david koechner movie paul rudd poster steve carell will ferrell Wed, 16 May 2012 06:21:14 -0800 Back when we first learned Michel Gondry was making film that would put 35 non-actor kids from the Bronx on a bus, I just sort of assumed that "bus" meant "discarded refrigerator box with beach ball wheels and dreams for fuel" and "non-actor kids" meant, I don't know, "physically-manifested whimsy," but this first trailer for that film now reveals I could not have been more wrong in my self-satisfied pigeonholing. Titled The We and the I, the film looks like something of a naturalistic departure from the usual, charming Gondry quirks--even compared to something like Green Hornet. As it turns out, the bus is just a regular public bus, and the kids are just a bunch of typical, screaming, obnoxious high schoolers going home on their final day of school, and we're shown just a regular slice of their lives. So there. See the trailer below, but beware, it spoils that the girl who said she wouldn't see a movie with this dude is totally going to see a movie with him after all.]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/michel-gondrys-we-and-the-i-trailer-meet.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/michel-gondrys-we-and-the-i-trailer-meet.php michel gondry movie trailer we and the i Tue, 15 May 2012 12:25:12 -0800 Hah!

The plot involves a cat who by day lives with a police inspector investigating the murder of her husband, by night assists a home-robbing cat burglar, giving us a glimpse of both sides of the law, and another example of how cats are allegiance-less assholes who cannot be trusted. Here's the trailer for the film. You will especially like it if you appreciate the art style "something I imagine being in Starbucks."]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/a-cat-in-paris-trailer-spielberg-can-fin.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/a-cat-in-paris-trailer-spielberg-can-fin.php animation cat in paris gkids movie trailer Tue, 15 May 2012 11:29:15 -0800 Not a lot of new footage in these new featurettes from Wes Anderson's latest, but you will get a lot of behind-the-scenes moments from the production that will make you really wish you were there skipping rocks and falling off bikes with Bill Murray, Bruce Willis, Ed Norton, and the director--each of whom have been given their own unique introduction below. You will also have the shit charmed out of you by featurette host Bob Balaban, who here, with his light-hearted, guiding narration, proves we have been absolutely stupid not to have him hosting a Blue's Clues-like children's program. Balaban's Plans? I don't know. We'll figure it out later. Just get him on PBS by 10 AM tomorrow.]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/moonrise-kingdom-featurettes-show-us-who.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/moonrise-kingdom-featurettes-show-us-who.php bill murray bob balaban bruce willis edward norton featurette moonrise kingdom wes anderson Tue, 15 May 2012 10:02:10 -0800 Alfonso Cuarón's eagerly-anticipated sci-fi follow-up to the amazing Children of Men has been delayed until next year, because we have frankly done nothing to deserve it this year.

Tue, 15 May 2012 09:04:18 -0800 Is The Good Doctor a carefully-shot Sundance drama or an ironically-titled Lifetime Original Movie meant to further frighten women against men and hospitals? Is star Orlando Bloom really a "good doctor," or is he a very bad doctor with a proclivity for poisoning anyone it takes to hold on to a patient he's obsessed with? This first trailer for The Good Doctor asks these questions, then seems to let the former options sorrowfully crawl out the window with Orlando Bloom's little boy haircut.]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/good-doctor-trailer-orlando-bloom-actual.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/good-doctor-trailer-orlando-bloom-actual.php good doctor jk simmons jon enbom lance daly michael pena movie orlando bloom riley keough rob morrow taraji p. henson trailer Tue, 15 May 2012 07:54:05 -0800 It's been rumored since last week, but at last Ron Burgundy himself has confirmed: pronounced mustache and wacky beard will come together as fully ridiculous facial hair, with an Anchorman 2 teaser attached to The Dictator.

If you have not seen The Raids: firstly, you should do that, because so much awesome shit happens. Secondly, you should still watch this, because these hyper-violent Play-Doh housepets are pretty respectful about parodying rather than spoiling the original's marginal narrative, so it's fine.]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/the-raid-remade-with-clay-cats.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/the-raid-remade-with-clay-cats.php animation movie short the raid Mon, 14 May 2012 13:35:11 -0800 There hasn't been much progress on Taylor Lautner playing "19-year-old extreme-sports athlete" Max Steel, but the Twilight werewolf will nonetheless ab-muscle his way into becoming the extreme, radical dude of a new generation of Mountain Dew sponsorship.]]> http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/taylor-lautner-will-be-bike-messenger-wi.php http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/05/taylor-lautner-will-be-bike-messenger-wi.php daniel benmayor taylor lautner tracers Mon, 14 May 2012 11:58:09 -0800 As anyone who has watched the Fast/Furious franchise knows, the most exciting and believable recurring character is the gear shifter, whose appreciable on-screen changes propel the story and give something to cut to between screeching tire shots.
