Now here's a list, and frankly I’m glad it’s finished, this has taken time and plenty of reading, but it’s been worth it. This is the Filmstalker preview for 2012, the films worth going to see from January through to December, well the ones we know about anyway.
This isn’t your normal preview list though as I’ve dropped a lot that other lists have. These are the films that I’d pay my money to see, or look promising enough this early in the year.




I'm not sure what to call it now, everyone's saying Lockout on the Internet and IMDB still display all three titles but their main one is the English title of MS One: Maximum Security. Whether that means it's only called that in England, and not the rest of Britain, I'm not sure. However let's go with Lockout for the rest of the article for now.
I'm really surprised by what I just read about the voting for the Oscars Best Original Song category for so many reasons, not just the fact that the voting system appears to be different to other categories in the Oscars, not that they are watching and listening to sections of films totally out of context, doesn't include certain songs in any film, but that despite all this "Best" only raises two nominees.
Iron Sky is complete and a new trailer has arrived to celebrate the first screening in the Berlin International Film Festival on the 11th of February, and there's definitely some excitement about the screening, after all we're talking about Nazis building a secret base on the dark side of the moon and creating a giant army ready to invade Earth.
There's a new trailer online for Seeking Justice (or just Justice), giving a little more weight to the incident that drives Nicolas Cage's character into making a deal with a group of professional vigilantes headed by Guy Pearce's character. The trailer also goes deeper into the story, perhaps in a few scenes a little too deep.
Brake may instantly sound like Buried, and a cheap version at that especially as it stars the once were strong Stephen Dorff and Tom Berenger, but the concept behind it sounds rather interesting, even if the lighting in the trailer is a little too bright, it seems wrong that he's seems to be inside a Perspex box in some scenes, and the trailer seems to give too much away.
I have to admit that I wasn't interested in seeing The Hangover for a long time; I just thought it would be the same usual puerile humour to come out of so many Hollywood comedies. However I can now officially admit I was wrong as I watched it just last week and I actually laughed at it and thought that it was enjoyable.

The Grey has a new MPAA red band trailer on the loose and we get to see a little bit more violence and action from the wolves, the promise of blood, and some swearing to boot. Personally I don't think that it substitutes for the powerful speech from Liam Neeson in the standard trailer but it does provide us with something more of the wolves.
A new trailer for Black Gold has arrived that presents the story quickly and gets on with the dramatic action-adventure type story. It's a shame because I would much rather see a trailer that laid out the story and built on the dramatic side of the story more than this one, but still it does look really good.
While Tom Wade has already delivered us one list of
Pinewood was planning a massive expansion, something I wrote about
The sequel to the rather enjoyable and very successful
There's not a great deal new to this trailer for Snow White and the Huntsman, but there is some new footage and the new shots are more in the effects and creature department and help to make the film look darker and I think more interesting.
