With John Carter‘s release date fast approaching, Disney is gearing up for the March 9 release of one of their most expensive films of 2012. And so far… they haven’t gotten much traction with their teasers and posters. The film is based on the Edgar Rice Burroughs novel, and stars Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins. Yeah, they need to sell something to get people hooked. Here’s a teaser from the latest trailer, which finally starts selling the spectacle.

Though The Odd Life of Timothy Green and the nature film Chimpanzee had trailers shown (and Jennifer Garner talked briefly about Green), the majority of attention for Disney’s live Actions films at D23 went to The Muppets and John Carter. The Muppets went over like gangbusters, while Carter just busted. There was also a brief presentation on Oz: The Great and Powerful, which just started shooting. Our report follows.

It’s always fun to have a trailer for a movie you knew nothing about pleasantly surprise you at 7 in the morning. I just stumbled across a new trailer for Uncertainty, a film by directors Scott McGehee and David Siegel, starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Lynn Collins, with Olivia Thirlby. It sounds like the film has been done for some time and looking for distribution. Maybe the casts recent successes have helped move the process along. The film will be released in limited theaters as well as a VOD release on November 13, 2009.
There is definitely a lot going on in this trailer, so trying to classify it or explain it to you is a bit tricky.
Check it out for yourself below and then we’ll try and discuss it…

In a one on one interview with MTV, the actress discussed the look that her “alien princess” character will have in the movie, and whether or not she will be involved in any heavy fight scenes.

I can honestly say I didn’t see this coming. For a while now we’ve been reporting on the film adaptation of the sci-fi book series John Carter of Mars. Wall-E director Andrew Stanton will helm the feature for Disney, based on the stories written by Edgar Rice Burroughs. The two lead characters, John and Dejah have been cast and they’re none other than Wolverine alum’s Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins!

Here it is! The X-Men Origins: Wolverine press conference, with Gavin Hood, Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds, Will.i.iam, Lynn Collins, and Taylor Kitsch. Overall, everyone was in good spirits, happy to be promoting a film that deserves to be put out the way it was intended.
The highlights for me were Ryan Renolds and Liev Schreiber. Everything Reynolds says is hysterical, from joking about wearing a silver dress that Collins was tricked by Jackman into wearing, to teasing Hugh Jackman about the music he listens to. Schreiber on the other hand, I could listen to all day, equally funny, but in a much different way. The man has a quick wit and is not afraid to jest about himself (and his fears about getting “big” enough for the roll) or his good friend Hugh Jackman.
Check out what they all had to say below…

A new 60 second TV spot has been released for X-Men Origins: Wolverine. This one is set up a little differently than the previous promos we’ve seen. Instead of giving us a glimpse of the film’s storyline, it just tells us what major characters will be featured. Whether or not I agree with the who’s who in this video is up for debate. I don’t want to spoil too much for you, so if you want to check out the video it’s available after the jump.

The three day promotional event for X-Men Origins: Wolverine is officially over. On Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday night the Fox Network aired three exclusive 60 second spots promoting the first X-Men spinoff, Wolverine. After careful examination I feel that I’ve gotten a better idea of what direction the story for the film will go in. Wolverine as a comic character has a very vague, and diluted past. So many different interpretations have been made about his origin, his age, and most importantly his claws.
Get a detailed recap of all three promos after the jump…
