Watch The Crashes & Smashes On ‘Fury Road’… With No Special Effects (Video)

The “Mad Max: Fury Road” trailer we posted months ago and the actual movie were loaded with every special effect and CGI bell & whistle Hollywood could ring and blow. It was all kinds of action-packed crazy, and the ticket-buyers certainly got their money’s worth. However, maybe you’ve wondered what the scenes would look like before all the effects were added.

Well, wonder no more.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (Official Trailer)

Oh sure, you’ve seen teasers and behind-the-scenes videos for the next in the “Star Wars” saga films, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” but this… THIS is the OFFICIAL trailer. Well worth the billing. And when you’re giving ‘top billing’ to a trailer, the actual movie better be damned epic! No indication above that it will be anything less.

Watch the official trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, in which a group of unlikely heroes band together on a mission to steal the plans to the Death Star, the Empire’s ultimate weapon of destruction. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story arrives in theaters December 16, 2016.

Hacksaw Ridge (“Believe” Trailer)

Mel Gibson is getting back into Tinsel Town through the front door (starring in “Blood Father”) AND behind the camera as director of this World War II epic “Hacksaw Ridge.”

HACKSAW RIDGE is the extraordinary true story of Desmond Doss [Andrew Garfield] who, in Okinawa during the bloodiest battle of WWII, saved 75 men without firing or carrying a gun. He was the only American soldier in WWII to fight on the front lines without a weapon, as he believed that while the war was justified, killing was nevertheless wrong. As an army medic, he single-handedly evacuated the wounded from behind enemy lines, braved fire while tending to soldiers and was wounded by a grenade and hit by snipers. Doss was the first conscientious objector awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor.
– Lionsgate Movies

This intense trailer is called “Believe.”

War Dogs (Trailer)

Based on a true story, “War Dogs” follows two friends in their early 20s (Hill and Teller) living in Miami Beach during the Iraq War who exploit a little-known government initiative that allows small businesses to bid on U.S. Military contracts. Starting small, they begin raking in big money and are living the high life. But the pair gets in over their heads when they land a 300 million dollar deal to arm the Afghan Military—a deal that puts them in business with some very shady people, not the least of which turns out to be the U.S. Government.

Wonder Woman (Comic-Con Trailer)

The official Comic-Con trailer for “Wonder Woman”, starring Gal Gadot, got dropped on nerds’ heads recently. Kinda reserved about it so far. “Batman vs. Superman” left some room for turning up for DC. But will “Suicide Squad” leave viewers like ‘WOW, great spinoff!’ or ‘Mehhh… rather see the Justice League flick’? Time will tell, but the trailer checks all the boxes for a comic book action hero war period piece that “Captain America: The First Avenger” did. So, can’t hate on DC for not trying hard.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (Comic-Con Trailer)

Attendees of this year’s Comic-Con got a first look at the trailer for “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword” (in theaters 2017). Charlie Hunnam stars as Arthur; a less noble, more grimy version. Looks like the timeframe of the film’s setting is a bit more modern than other tellings of the story, too, but you still get the armor clanging, sword in stone, knight fighting and all of that.

The Great Wall (First Look Clip)

In this case, we are using Hollywood filmmaking to introduce Chinese culture.
Zhang Yimou

Promising true cross-cultural filmmaking – an American-scripted story told about, and in, China while remaining authentic. Starring Matt Damon, so it should be epic. Watch the piece above for proof. In theaters next year (2017).

But… will “The Great Wall” be accepted? Don’t think [at least] some Asians are feeling Hollywood putting out yet another White-man-saves-the-Asians movie. Even if it is a fantasy flick. Peep the Tweet-heat after the jump.

Justice League (Special Comic-Con Trailer)

Stop right there. I’m in!
I need friends.

Agreed, Barry. We all need friends, even Arthur Curry. Haa! Another super-powered trailer tailor-made for Comic-Con. Looks like they are going with the bad azz Aqua-Man for this incarnation of “Justice League.” Big screen, big action. Not sure it ought to be Batman out there doing the ‘recruiting’ but this trailer still manages to tease a movie that looks like it has merit. Take a look.

If you like it, you only have to wait over a year for it to hit theaters in November 2017.

Doctor Strange (Trailer)

Lotta buzz over a lot of trailers dropped off at Comic Con, as is always the case. Don’t let this one slip by you. Marvel is already winning in theaters, but this trailer teases a comic storyline never brought to the big screen. “Doctor Strange” got a mention as a serious threat to Hydra in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but to seriously roll the dice and make a whole film on the Stephen Strange character?

Yeah. Marvel’s doing it… BIG!

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (Behind The Scenes Video)

Really hoping they go kinda old school with the making of “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.” Such is implied in this behind the scenes video with the cast and crew. Some things you just can’t get out of computer simulations and green screenery. Get in there heavy with action sequences, fight choreography, and rich set scenery. Please. For the Star Wars saga’s sake.

Dope. So dope. Watch.

Suicide Squad (Final Trailer)

Okay.

So we have had a Blitz Trailer, International Trailer, Official Trailer, and we started with a mf’n Comic-Con Trailer for “Suicide Squad”… Message to DC movie-making powers that be… This better live up to the hype.

Blood Father (Trailer)

This could be Mel Gibson’s ticket back into the Hollywood elite. Watching this trailer…whew! In case you forgot what Gibson can do in the frame of an action movie, watch the trailer for “Blood Father” (due out late Summer). In this movie, biological did bother… a few years late… but damn if he doesn’t have his daughter’s back AND front!

Sully (Trailer)

Surprised it took this long to make a Captain “Sully” saves-the-day movie, but it’s [finally] coming. And it’s a Tom Hanks film. Count on it to be a blockbuster; lock for some Academy awards.

The story of Chesley Sullenberger, who became a hero after gliding his plane along the water in the Hudson River, saving all of his 155 passengers.
