Trailer Showdown 3/15: ‘The Bling Ring’ is the Best Trailer of the Week

It’s Friday morning, which means it’s time for Trailer Showdown! Once again, we rank the week’s new trailers from best to worst to make sure you’re always up on the latest awesome movies, months ahead of release!

This week sees the release of two phenomenal new trailers for the highly anticipated Sofia Coppola film based on a true story of teenage crime lords, “The Bling Ring” as well as the hot as hell trailer for the quirky and outlandish superhero flick “Kick-Ass 2.” There’s a hefty helping of trailers beside that as well, so take a good look at our offerings.

Did we get the rankings right? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!

1.) ‘The Bling Ring’

Best of the Week: Sofia Coppola is back with this amazingly perfect ripped from the headlines, based on a true story of a group of teens who used the Internet to track when celebs were home, break into their houses and steal their expensive goods. A fantastic trailer as far as teasers go, this movie skyrockets up to the top of the must-see list. Emma Watson as a bad girl is all right with us too!
Starring: Emma Watson, Leslie Mann, Taissa Farmiga
Release Date: June 14, 2013

2.) ‘Kick-Ass 2'

NSFW: The rip-roaring sequel to one of the darkest super hero movies of the decade is finally here! The gang’s all back in action, Hit Girl and Kick Ass return to battle Red Mist, along with new allies and villains. Whether or not you liked the original, it’s clear they’ve upped the ante in every way for round two.
Starring: Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Chloë Grace Moretz, Christopher Mintz-Plasse
Release Date: Aug. 16, 2013

3.) ‘To the Wonder’

We have already featured this Terrence Malick directed film in a previous report, but that doesn’t stop us from salivating over this new trailer filled with lush images, astonishingly seductive soundscapes and the promise of absolute beauty radiating from every element. There’s few things in life worth looking forward to as much as a Malick-directed film that meditates on the concept of romantic love.
Starring: Ben Affleck, Olga Kurylenko, Javier Bardem
Release Date: April 12, 2013

4.) ‘Electrick Children’

A young Mormon girl believes herself to be pregnant after listening to a cassette tape of rock music, and sets out to discover her place in the world. Part coming of age story and part wild shenanigans, this one looks to be wildly original and truly promising.
Starring: Julia Garner, Rory Culkin, Liam Aiken
Release Date: March, 2013

5.) ‘Milius’

This documentary explores the world of writer and director John Milius, who brought us some of the greatest movies of the last century. Interviews with famous friends such as George Lucas, Harrison Ford, Arnold Schwarzenegger and many more populate this dynamic look at a rough ridin’ wild man who redefined the movies.
Starring: John Milius, Peter Bart, Bill Cody
Release Date: March 9, 2013

6.) ‘Tomorrow You’re Gone’

A terrifying revenge flick with a hot dame, a serious case of vengeance and a very formidable foe makes this one to watch. While the specifics of this one seem vaguely forgettable, we’re willing to bet that Dafoe makes it more than worth your while.
Starring: Stephen Dorff, Michelle Monaghan, Willem Dafoe
Release Date: 2013

7.) ‘Penthouse North’

In this dramatic thriller, a blind woman’s idyllic life is targeted by a killer and a power hungry cop, seeking to destroy her. With elements of “Wait Until Dark” throughout, this one looks to be rather spooky and terrifying.
Starring: Michelle Monaghan, Michael Keaton, Barry Sloane
Release Date: 2013

8.) ‘Aroused’

In this documentary, some of the biggest porn stars in the business talk about their work, from the highs and lows of intimacy to the ups and downs of the job. Looks to be a fascinating glance into a world that is filled with endless speculation and assumption.
Starring: Belladonna, Kayden Kross, Lisa Ann
Release Date: Feb. 20, 2013

9.) ‘Imaginaerium’

Confusing, and large scale, this imaginative and bizarre film follows an old man who dreams of being young again, trapped within the confines of his own mind. Could be good, but looks like it might lose too many people along the way.
Starring: Marianne Farley, Quinn Lord, Francis X. McCarthy
Release Date: 2013

10.) ‘Leonie’

A drama that follows a strong young woman and her love of a Japanese man, with whom she has a child. When she follows him to Japan only to be disappointed, she pours her life into her son and his career as a sculptor. Moving and eloquent, this film looks like a wonderful character piece for Emily Mortimer, and a look at the difficulties faced by women then and now.
Starring: Emily Mortimer, Kazuko Yoshiyuki, Shidô Nakamura
Release Date: 2013

11.) ‘The Story of Luke’

A young autistic man attempts to find a normal life, a girlfriend and a job amidst the difficulties of dealing with his own mind. This could be an absolutely great look at the difficulties and specifics of autism, and the lighter side of dealing with heartache. Or it could be terrible, there’s no way of knowing at this point. Here’s hoping for the best!
Starring: Cary Elwes, Seth Green, Al Sapienza
Release Date: 2013

12.) ‘Generation Um…’

Three wild folks explored New York City and their connection to one another in this vivacious and exploratory film. Let’s see if Keanu Reeves can hold up his end of a film, especially one requiring so much emotion.
Starring: Keanu Reeves, Adelaide Clemens, Daniel Sunjata
Release Date: May 28, 2013

13.) ‘Witching & Bitching’

I have no Earthly idea what this movie could even be about, but it looks like one heck of a wild ride, featuring street performers, witches, spells and more? Dark and mysterious!
Starring: Javier Botet, Mario Casas, Carmen Maura
Release Date: 2013
