New International Robin Hood Trailer
1 hour ago
| Collider.com
| See recent Collider.com news
»
If you’re the kind of person that needs dialogue in a movie trailer, the new international Robin Hood trailer is for you. Because unlike the first trailer (from last week) which featured almost no dialogue and a lot of music, this new one is a more straight forward selling of the movie.
While the story of Robin Hood has been told a million times in movies and on TV, I’ll admit to being very excited about this new version. After all, with Ridley Scott directing and a cast featuring Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, William Hurt, Mark Strong, Danny Huston, and Max von Sydow, how can you not be? Also, as a huge fan of Gladiator, I’m extremely excited to see Crowe and Scott team up again on an action film.
Hit the jump to check out the trailer. Robin Hood gets released May 14, 2010.

Pinewood Studios UK recently wrapped up sequences on director Ridley "Blade Runner" Scott's "Robin Hood", starring Oscar-winning actors Russell "Gladiator" Crowe and Cate "Elizabeth" Blanchett.
"Robin Hood" reunites Crowe and Scott in their fifth collaboration together.
Producers are Brian "A Beautiful Mind" Grazer, Scott and Crowe.
The new feature chronicles the life of an expert archer, previously conerned only with his own self-preservation, starting with his service in the army of 'King Richard' against the French. Upon Richard’s death, 'Robin' travels to 'Nottingham', a town suffering from the corruption of a despotic sheriff and crippling taxation, where he falls for spirited widow 'Lady Marion' (Blanchett), "...a woman skeptical of the identity and motivations of this crusader from the forest..."
Hoping to earn the hand of Marion and salvage the village, Robin assembles a gang whose lethal mercenary skills are matched only by their appetite for life.
Together,

Russell Crowe steals a kiss from Cate Blanchett in new scenes from Robin Hood. The Sherwood Forest hero is reborn in the new trailer for Ridley Scott's upcoming action flick Robin Hood. The film stars Russell Crowe as the outlaw who steals from the rich to give to the poor, while Cate Blanchett plays Robin Hood's love interest Maid Marian. The just-released trailer will have Gladiator fans' hearts racing with action-packed scenes showing Robin screaming into battle on horseback with swords drawn. Scott's reinterpretation of the English legend retells the tale of how an archer in the service of King Richard the Lionheart transforms into the legendary outlaw reviled by newly crowned King John.

Russell Crowe does epic uber-heroes very well, the fact not lost on Ridley Scott who inked the masculine Aussie as lead for the new "Robin Hood." The trailer is the first peek at Ridley Scott's "Robin Hood," due out in May. This film reunites Ridley Scott (who directed "Gladiator") with star Russell Crowe. Again, Crowe does Alpha male very well, and we appreciate it! Have a gander:

Robin Hood
Directed by: Ridley Scott
Starring: Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchette, Mark Strong
Rating: R
Release Date: May 14, 2010
Trailer Score: 6/10
My Thoughts: Ever since Russell Crowe hefted a phone at a guy making minimum wage and then threw a momentous hissy-fit, he’s morphed, at warp speed, from a snarling gladiator to a pudgy infant prone to public tantrums. Should an actor’s private shenanigans influence the way we look at his art, especially when that actor is as undeniably fine-tuned as Crowe? I don’t know–let’s ask Mr. Cruise if anyone’s opinion of him changed after he bounced around on Oprah’s couch like a wild-eyed lunatic.
I understand that Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe are engaged in a bromance of epic proportions, but you don’t get the d*ck to play Robin Hood, no matter how good he is at Let’s Pretend. Robin

Poll: Who'll win the Golden Globe for best drama actor? George Clooney? Jeff Bridges?

| Gold Derby

The reason that "Up in the Air" soared off with the most Golden Globe nominations is obvious: Everybody's gone Clooney-crazy this year. So doesn't that mean that George will automatically win best drama actor?
Hold your horses, Derbyites! Golden Globe voters like to spread their gold around. As things stand now, most pundits predict that "Up in the Air" will win best drama picture. Sometimes voters give out a best-actor bookend with the Globe prize (Leo DiCaprio won for best picture champ "The Aviator," Russell Crowe won for best pic "A Beautiful Mind"), but often they don't (Crowe didn't win for best pic "Gladiator").
Globe voters like big, hambone performances, the showier the better, like the last two previous winners: Mickey Rourke ("The Wrestler") and Daniel Day-Lewis ("There Will Be Blood"). If that same pattern repeats, then Jeff Bridges has the edge for stumbling around drunk, flashing lots of ham

Opening on Christmas Day is director Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes. As I have said a few times, I saw the film and thought it was awesome. Great script. Fantastic performances from everyone involved. Amazing chemistry between Jude Law and Downey Jr. A third act that doesn’t suck. Action scenes that sell why Sherlock Holmes is Sherlock Holmes. But more than anything, the film is just a lot of fun. Cannot recommend it enough.
So to help promote the film, we’ve been given a bunch of cool Sherlock Holmes swag to giveaway. If you’d like to get any of it, hit the jump to see how to enter and take a look at the prizing.

Today, HeyUGuys was able to interview a true legend when it comes to movies. Examples of films he has scored include True Romance, Thelma & Louise, Black Hawk Down, more recently the likes of Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and his latest being that of Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes. On his first ever assignment for HeyUGuys, Adam Farina was given over 30 minutes to talk with the composing icon and you can listen to the full interview audio below.
Points that might be worth taking note are that of the ‘projects’ he and Nolan are currently looking at collaborating on. It has to be the Dark Knight follow-up doesn’t it?! Or is it just Inception which they are both currently working on?

New Robin Hood trailer features lots of yelling, very few tights

The Original Robin Hood, now being remade by Ridley Scott
I assume they’re wearing tights, but the camera never holds on their legs long enough for me to see if these men are in tights or not…
Also, while we can clearly see arrows being let go in slow motion, the trailer for the new Ridley Scott Robin Hood does not show any firey arrows flying at my face in slow motion At All. What does that mean for the quality of the movie? Probably nothing, but I’m in my 30s, so I’ll always have a special place in my heart for Prince Of Thieves (which is probably why I play Everything I Do at every Love Bites Sing-Along).
Other people on the web are making fun of the trailer because it looks pretty much exactly like Gladiator (except with a forest instead of Roman architecture), and yeah,

Ridley's "Robin Hood": The Hero Behind The Outlaw

| SneakPeek
| See recent SneakPeek news
»
Universal Pictures "Robin Hood", directed by Sir Ridley Scott, starring actor Russell "Gladiator" Crowe in their fifth film collaboration together, is based on the British 'Robin Hood' legend, due for a tent-pole release May 14, 2010.
The film began development in 2007 when Universal acquired the screenplay "Nottingham".
Set in the late 12th century England, 'Sir Robin Hood of Locksley, Earl of Huntington', (Crowe) returns to his North English village after fighting in the 'Third Crusade'. Upon his arrival, he discovers the oppression caused by the new 'Sheriff of Nottingham' (Matthew MacFadyen).
Sir Robin uses his military skills to free his home village from tyranny and corruption, taking back what is 'rightfully' his, winning the affection of recently widowed 'Lady Marian' (Cate Blanchett) and leading his 'Merry Men' of 'Sherwood Forest' to victory.

I know that we're all supposed to harumph and say we hate "Gladiator" these days, at least based on the way the fanboy nation reacts every time it's mentioned, but forget that. I loved "Gladiator" when it came out and I still think it's one of the most acutely entertaining moments of Ridley Scott's career. I'm also on record as being a huge fan of the director's cut of "Kingdom Of Heaven," a film that was mistreated to a disturbing extent during its theatrical run. Fox shot themselves in the foot on that one, because the shortre theatrical cut deserved to

When the World Needs Robin Hood, We Get Gladiator 2

If ever there was an apt time for a Robin Hood movie, it’s now. With unrepentant financial institutions back in full force, and Washington refusing to regulate Wall Street’s extravagance, we could use a hero who steals from the rich, gives to the poor, and thumbs his nose at the law. But we’ll leave it to Oliver Stone to give the titans of finance their comeuppance in Wall Street 2, because that’s not how Universal seems to be marketing Ridley Scott’s upcoming Robin Hood, starring Russell Crowe. Instead, they are essentially selling it as a sequel to Crowe and Scott’s 2000 collaboration, Gladiator. (The abundance of chainmail and coats of arms also recalls Scott’s 2005 crusades film, Kingdom of Heaven, set during the same period.) Check out the new teaser trailer and compare the number of elements we recognized from Gladiator to those identified with Robin Hood.

Official ‘Robin Hood’ Trailer and Pictures

A teaser trailer and the first official images have surfaced for Robin Hood, the woodland rogue movie directed by Ridley Scott and starring the Gladiator himself, Russell Crowe. Oh, and Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett as Maid Marion, William Hurt, Mark Strong, Kevin Durant, Danny Huston, and Matthew Macfayden.
You won’t see any tights, “Oo de lallies,” or Kevin Costner in this clip, or the movie for that matter. Instead there’s plenty of sword-swinging, arrow-slinging action set to rock music, the not so subtle trend of letting audiences know this is a new version of the old story.
The reactions to the video seem to be pretty mixed. I personally liked the idea of Scott returning to the popular character when it was titled Nottingham and Crowe way playing both Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham in a re-imaging of the story.
The trailer is embedded below, but if you want,
