One of the best things to come out of Staten Island, the 5th graders of the PS 22 chorus, are getting some more attention with a documentary that will premiere at TriBeca Film Festival this year. The trailer for Once In A Lullaby has just been released (watch it below), and the doc will focus on the public school kids from Staten Island and their teacher Gregg Breinberg, who have been invited to perform at the White House and The Oscars. more ›

It's been nearly a year since Will Smith and his massive private trailer were evicted from the SoHo streets during the filming of Men In Black III. So it's time to move forward, forget about the mobile McMansion, and focus on the finished product. In December the first trailer for the movie dropped, but now there's a much more substantial one, which was released today. In it, you'll see Smith and Tommy Lee Jones go back to a 1969 New York City, where Smith declares at a party: "Y'know, I don't have no problem pimp-slapping the shiznit outta Andy Warhol." (Really! He says that.) more ›

Have you heard of the movie Dorothy and the Witches of Oz? The low-budget flick is coming out on Friday and looks wicked bad. The movie (of which there may also be an alternate television mini-series version) puts Dorothy in Manhattan, sipping on cosmos. "The Witches of Oz follows the exploits of the grown Dorothy Gale, now a successful children's book author, as she moves from Kansas to present day New York City. Dorothy quickly learns that her popular books are based on repressed childhood memories, and that the wonders of Oz are very, very real. When the Wicked Witch of the West shows up in Times Square, Dorothy must find the inner courage to stop her." more ›

First, what is a dosa? "Dosas have been a staple item in south Indian cuisine for centuries and are popular throughout all of India. The savory pancake is eaten for breakfast, dinner, or even as a snack item. Dosas are usually considered appropriate for vegetarians and individuals with wheat allergies or gluten intolerance. They may also appeal to the health conscious, as they are usually high in carbohydrates and low in calories and fat," says The Internet. more ›

New Year's Eve and Valentine's Day are the Hallmark of Hollywood productions—rom coms centered around holidays in which ensemble casts play out their microscopic plotlines which somehow generate lots and lots of manufactured feelings. They're totally manipulative! And lucrative. And now they've got some competition from the folks at 30 Rock, where on the show Jenna Maroney is starring in Martin Luther King Day. Check out the trailer, where you'll also spot: Nick Cannon, Emma Stone, Andy Samberg, Liam Neeson, Kristen Bell, R2D2, John Krasinski, Hugh Grant, and so many more. What, no Ashton Kutcher? more ›

We're all super-stoked about the summer 2012 blockbuster, The Dark Knight Rises—from what we can tell, based on all the filming around NYC this fall, it must be a documentary focusing on the dark underbelly of street closings. This week, everyone's been talking about the six-minute prologue, focusing on new villain Bane, which has been attached certain IMAX screenings—some have said it "will have your jaw drop," while others have complained about Bane's voice. Now, it's been revealed that a new trailer for the film will accompany Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, opening on Friday. But thanks to the internet, you can watch a leaked version of the trailer below! more ›

One-part Borat, one-part Saddam Hussein romance novel, and one-part incredibly fake beard, the first trailer for the highly anticipated new Sacha Baron Cohen movie, The Dictator, was released today. It's loosely based on Zabibah And The King, the romance novel allegedly written by former Iraqi dictator Hussein. The movie, which prominently takes place in NYC, concerns the exploits of the titular character, "who risked his life to ensure that democracy would never come to the country he so lovingly oppressed." Watch the trailer below. more ›

HBO's next foray into the "ladies in New York City" genre comes from Judd Apatow and Lena Dunham, the mumblecore queen who will star in the show Girls, which focuses on the twenty-something set in the big city. Alex Blagg gave some hopeful commentary this morning, saying, "Girls might have a reverse-Sex & the City effect on NYC, where everyone who moves there acts cool and funny and real." more ›

In September we saw the first glimpse of Jonathan Safran Foer's 2005 novel Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close in its big screen adaptation look, with a trailer very light on 9/11 imagery. Now, about three weeks before it hits theaters, the trailer editors have delivered a more heart-wrenching version, with 100% less feel-good U2 songs, and more shots of the Twin Towers after the planes hit. The movie comes to theaters on Christmas Day, should you be looking to weep on the holiday: more ›

Just last month The Avengers was filming some final shots around New York, and now Joss Whedon & Co. have released the first trailer for the movie (due out, in 3-D, in 2012). And surprise: it's full of NYC destructo-porn! If you've ever wanted to see yellow cabs, NYPD cruisers, or buildings engulfed in fireballs dangerously close to Scarlett Johansson, this is for you. And not all of this was filmed in Manhattan—in August the production took over East 9th Street in Cleveland, Ohio, which doubled as our very own 42nd Street. more ›

So far the upcoming superhero flicks are putting out some disappointing trailers.

The third and final installment in Christopher Nolan's trilogy isn't due out until next year (and they only just started filming recently), but they've already stitched together an early teasers.

We've been treated to some teaser trailers, but now The Muppets have finally delivered some full-length action. The Jason Segel-scripted film isn't due out until Thanksgiving, but the marketing machine is in full force, and as TotalFilm.com notes, you will be "swept up by a wave of nostalgia" upon clicking play. (Not that anyone thought Segel would ruin the franchise, did you see his Muppet-esque rock opera in Forgetting Sarah Marshall? Genius.) And for those wondering, this trailer does show Muppet feet. more ›
