Movie Trailer Sunday (15)

A pretty good trailer week. This weeks trailers are about an engaged couple, a marine finding his good luck charm, the three Stooges, paretnhood and Madagascar.

The Five-Year Engagement
Description: We follow the ups and downs of Tom and Violet, a engaged couple (Emily Blunt and Jason Segel)
Director: Nicholas Stoller
Starring: Emily Blunt, Jason Segel, Chris Pratt and Rhys Ifans
Trailer: Trailer "The Five-Year Engagement"
Comment: I love watching both Emily Blunt and Jason Segel. They look like a nice on screen couple and the trailer looks fun.

The Lucky One
Description: Logan (Zac Efron) is a Marine who survives three tours in Iraq. He attributes his good fortune to a photograph he carried of a woman he has never met, and he sets out to meet his good-luck charm when he returns to North Carolina.
Director:Scott Hicks
Starring: Zac Efron, Taylor Schilling and Blythe Danner
Trailer: Trailer "The Lucky One"
Comment: I WANT TO SEE THIS! I'm not a Zac Efron fan, but after seeing this trailer I want to marry him (not really off course...).

The Three Stooges
Description: The movie takes place when the trio are dumped out as newborns at the door of an orphanage. The comedy follows them to adulthood and is very much in the spirit of the original shorts, in which the blue collar bumblers got the best of the wealthy society matrons that tried to exploit them.

Director: Kirk Jones
Starring: Cameron Diaz, Matthew Morrison, Dennis Quaid, Brooklyn Decker, Elizabeth Banks, Anna Kendrick, Chase Crawford, Chris Rock, Rodrigo Santoro and Jennifer (you suck) Lopez
Trailer: Trailer "What to Expect When You're Expecting"
Comment: I dispise Jennifer Lopez, but that's also how much I love Cameron Diaz. So I give it the benefit of the doubt.

Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted
Description: Alex the Lion (Ben Stiller), Marty the Zebra (Chris Rock), Gloria the Hippo (Jada Pinkett-Smith), and Melman the Giraffe (David Schwimmer) are still fighting to get home to their beloved Big Apple and of course, King Julien, Maurice and the Penguins are all along for the comedic adventure. Their journey takes them through Europe where they find the perfect cover: a traveling circus, which they reinvent Madagascar style.
Director: Eric Darnell
Starring: Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, David Schwimmer, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Sacha Baron Cohen and Cedric The Entertainer
Trailer: Trailer "Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted"
