VIDEO: Tom Hanks Dances On Univision, Better Than Any Trailer for Larry Crowne

Despite being headlined by A-list stars Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, Larry Crowne seems like a bit of a tough sell. After all, it’s a recession-tinged comedy-drama-romance about a guy who loses his job and goes to community college to put his life back together. Good times! Or something. Thus far, the trailers for Crowne have been of the “show, show more” variety, but perhaps Universal can just use this video of Tom Hanks interacting and dancing (!) with the hosts of the Univision show Despierta America for future spots, if only because it’s awesome. Click through to watch.

Help Caption This Leaked Harry Potter Picture Of Daniel Radcliffe Walking Away

Next On The Deathless List Of Franchise Reboots: Child’s Play

Take a good look at the pile of 80s remake effluvia that includes Red Dawn , Footloose and Robocop , and then throw another turd on the barbie: MGM has announced plans to remake the Child’s Play ‘s film series, starring Chucky the homicidal doll. Must we? No one will claim that the original Child’s Play was any great work of art, but is there any reason to update it and remake for today’s audience other than a stirring need for cash? Besides which, do kids today even play with dolls anymore? Shouldn’t it be about a demonic Nintendo DS that comes to life and starts snapping shut (demonically!) on people’s fingers? Brad Dourif, the original voice of Chucky, is slated to return, as is the creator of the whole series, Don Mancini, to write and possibly direct. God only knows what Oprah will have to eat to get through this one . Just to stir your nostalgia, the original Child’s Play trailer is below. [ /Film ]

What In The Name Of God Was Warner Bros. Thinking When It Gave Zack Snyder The Superman Keys?

So, let’s say you’re Warner Bros. studios. Despite being an anthropomorphic conglomeration, life is pretty good for you. Your massively profitable Harry Potter series is about to come to a conclusion, but you’ve got a lot of bullets left in your gun: After making one of the highest grossing movies in the world with Dark Knight , Christopher Nolan made you money AND prestige with Inception — and he’s about to make another Batman movie. You’ve got a possible new superhero franchise with Green Lantern . And you own the movie rights to Superman, possibly the most iconic character in history behind Mickey Mouse and Jesus Christ — so why would you give it to the man who keeps cranking out hyperkinetic failure after failure?

Samurai Obliterate An Entire Army in Trailer For Takashi Miike’s 13 Assassins

Given that previous films from Japanese shock cinema master Takashi Miike ( Ichi the Killer , Audition ) have featured title screens written in semen, explicit homages to the conclusion of The Grapes of Wrath and uh, the entire earth exploding, the trailer for 13 Assassins actually looks kind of tame. But that’s like saying David Lynch’s Blue Velvet looks “normal” compared to Inland Empire .
