"Hermoine just stole all of our s**t."
After the release of an April Fool's joke trailer for a sequel to 2008's Pineapple Express, an actual, red-band trailer has been released for the upcoming, apocalyptic comedy This is the End.
The movie follows Seth Rogen, James Franco, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Jonah Hill and Jay Baruchel as fictional versions of themselves trying to stay alive while living in Franco's house after an apocalypse hits the planet. The NSFW trailer shows the movie's many cameos, including Michael Cera, Rihanna, Mindy Kaling, Aziz Ansari and a not-messing-around Emma Watson, whose apocalypse survival instinct is take what's hers.

Writer/director Edgar Wright's latest movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, opens today and yet another new clip has appeared online, courtesy of MTV. Based on Bryan Lee O'Malley's graphic novel, Scott Pilgrim follows Michael Cera as a fledgling musician who falls for the girl of his dreams (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and is forced into kung fu battle with her seven "evil" exes. Yesterday's clip showed Cera getting dating advice from his roommate (Kieran Culkin), and today's clip shows a telephone confrontation between Cera and the seventh "evil" ex, Gideon Graves (Jason Schwartzman) that likely leads to the final fight sequence.

Enough with the comic book movies featuring athletic, rubber-encased millionaires and teenagers granted superpowers. We're happy to see this year's release of two comics-turned-movies featuring humbler guys, more ordinary guys, guys just trying to cope in extraordinary circumstances. And as coincidence (or evil marketing genius?) would have it, we have the DVD release of one of them just in time for the theater release of one of the other.

Writer-director Edgar Wright's (Hot Fuzz) latest movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, opens tomorrow and Universal is making one final marketing push by unleashing a plethora of new promotional videos. Based on the popular Scott Pilgrim indie comic book by Bryan Lee O'Malley, the movie follows slacker musician Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) as he tries to win the affections of the girl of his dreams, Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) by battling his way through her seven "evil" exes in video-game inspired combat. Equal parts comedy and action movie, with a healthy portion of rock-and-roll sprinkled throughout, Wright's adaptation breaks the mold of what a "comic book movie" is supposed to be.

Those that attended the Comic-Con panel for the upcoming comic book adaptation Scott Pilgrim vs. The World were treated to one of the most celebrated panels so far. Director Edgar Wright moderated the discussion which featured cast members Brandon Routh, Kieran Culkin, Jason Schwartzman and Michael Cera wearing a Captain America costume (Scott Pilgrim costar, and Captain America lead Chris Evans was not in attendance). Even Simon Pegg and Nick Frost jumped onstage until Wright corrected himself, saying he misread the cue card and that the two actors do not appear in the movie. Then Wright asked the audience: "Would you people like to follow me to the theater right now to watch the film?"
While we can't be as generous, MTV does have a new clip, which is at least one minute of a very anticipated movie.

Forget the TV spots. Forget the other trailers. Forget the recent clip from the MTV Movie Awards where Pilgrim (Michael Cera) has to defeat evil ex-boyfriend #2 Lucas Lee (Chris Evans) and his stuntmen team. The footage from director Edgar Wright's adaptation of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World has been exciting so far, but none of those compare to the new international trailer that Wright released on his blog.
While not all of it is new footage, most of it is, and it finally shows an interaction between Scott Pilgrim and evil ex-boyfriend #3, Todd Ingram (Brandon Routh).
