Things are looking hairy (sorry) for the jungle expedition crew in the final trailer:

Continued noir/neo-noir research with #DarkCity today. Perplexing but engrossing. So much borrowed iconography. Dat… https://t.co/1QsPw7cuHJ

The teasers for Anchorman: The Legend Continues gave so little away. The first full-length trailer promised so much but posed so many questions.

Will it be as impressive as tiny dog that can eat a whole wheel of cheese or could it just be plain bad, like warm milk on a hot day?

Until now, it's been the scorpian woman plaguing all our dreams. A constant nightmare of someone else reading our news.

Released 20 December

Fear no more. This trailer confirms it's going to be as amazing as a squirrell that can waterski. Ridiculous but amazing. Just what we want.

There have been teasers but as yet, the man who wore suits so fine he made Sinatra look like a hobo hasn't given us any full-length, clip-based love for Anchorman: The Legend Continues.... until now.

Released 20 December

Thank great Odin's raven, it's good!

Dare I say it's not that good though? No, no. Enough of this nay saying. For the time being, let's just assume Ferrell, McKay, Apatow and co are not falling into the trap of putting all the funniest moments in the trailer and that it'll be brilliant.

Please be brilliant....

With Man of Steel only days away now, fever pitch is setting in.

Kids everywhere are walking round in Superman clothing (their Dad's blatantly having encouraged such apparel), cinema websites are in meltdown with people hammering them for tickets, while eager fans scour the web for anything that resembles a legit review. 

Everyone embargoed until late tonight, nobody will find as much as a whiffter.

What is around though, is this quite excellent 13 minute featurette.

Warning in advance: If you think you're already as excited as can possibly be and haven't yet watched this, you may experience heart failure and or incontinence by the time you reach its conclusion.

Released 14 June

Oh those lads do like a pint and laugh what?!

The almighty conclusion to the Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, The World's End (no need to be quite so dramatic!) gets it first full-length trailer.

Released 19 July

Does this mean the Pegg, Wright, Frost combo will be doing its hilarious dance for the last time? Let's hope not. 

Either way, there are (alien?) robots! Everybody loves (alien?) robots!

Unless of course they're Michael Bay (alien) robots, in which case they can just f**k off straight to DVD.

It looks as though Joseph Gordon-Levitt is officially trying to wrestle the renaissance man tag away from James Franco after all these years. From sprog actor to big actor to founder of his brilliantly unique production company hitRecord... What's next?! Well, how about writer/director.

Here's the first trailer for his upcoming directorial debut Don Jon.

Released 15 November

What can we say? The man loves performance art of all types...

"The fate of your planet rests in your hands." It's that flippin' General Zod again. What a big bully.

Invading earth, a fourth Man of Steel trailer has landed and this time the emphasis is on Zod's primary objective - maiming the boy in blue.

Released 14 June

More action than we saw in the last trailer here and crumbs, does it look epic! There's even a shot of Supes drowning in skulls...

He'll be alright though. He will. Won't he?

[richatthepictures]

With Anchorman: The Legend Continues well into its shooting schedule, they're still not giving much away and to be honest, I don't think I'd be alone in thinking it's getting to be ri-goddam-diculous!

Thankfully though, Ferrell, McKay and co know we're hungry, so, much like the first, they've provided us with another teaser to wrap our pleats around.

Released 20 December

Is anyone else petrified that this won't live up to the original? Will Baxter save the day again? It certainly looks like they're not holding back on big name cameos if a cast list including Jim Carey, Harrison Ford, Kirsten Dunst, Liam Neeson, Nicole Kidman, Tina Fey, Kirsten Wiig, John C. Reilly, Sacha Baron Cohen, James Marsden, Amy Poehler and Kanye West is anything to go by...

Don't act like you're not impressed.

The teaser was good. The first trailer was magnificent. The third, full-length "action" trailer for The Man Of Steel is... okay. 

Released 14 June

Without wanting to throw water on the raging flames of excitement roaring around this film (and raging within my furiously palpitating heart) this third trailer, although grandiose, is a touch flatter than the previous one.

Yes, we see more glimpses of the large scale action that's been promised but we get significantly less of the emotive, stylised vibe that so successfully buoyed the first.

On the other hand, it doesn't look as though Snyder's held back on the whoopla and it certainly seems as though Mr Zimmer's yet again done a fantastic job of re-imagining an iconic score.

Plus, that nasty man Zod has a right huff, which is always nice to see.

If only I could fly clockwise round the world a few times and bring June 14th forward a couple months...

If you thought the teaser was good, you were right.

The full-length trailer for Iron Man 3 however, is truly something else! Better, faster, more action packed. 

Released 25th April

That's right folks, it's coming and it's coming a day earlier than originally planned.

Super (heroic) news!

Gerard Butler, what a renaissance man eh?

One minute he's defending Greece's honour, the next he's sexually antagonising Katherine Heigl, then he's off crusading for Sudanese kids with a machine gun!

Well, his skills clearly don't stop there people because now he's impersonating Clint Eastwood and saving American Presidents in Antoine Fuqua's Olympus Has Fallen. 

What a man. What a mighty fine man.

Released 19 April

Basically, it's a cross between Die Hard and Escape From New York but with a Scottish guy masquerading as a beefy All-American bad ass.

Oh and he's emotionally damaged, ex Secret Service with a checkered past... naturally.
