It’s Red Eye meets The Forgotten as Jodie Foster’s daughter mysteriously disappears from an Air Force One knockoff in the new trailer for Flightplan. I’m getting the feeling Capt. Sean Bean and/or Air Marshall Peter Sarsgaard might have something to do with it.

Your Lion Heart.
The AICN gang get their hands on (and quickly disavow) a Kramervision look at the first Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, & the Wardrobe trailer. It’s a bit Lemony Snicket-meets-LotR, and unless you’re a fan of the books I’d skip this Shakicam boot and wait until an official version leaks…but, otherwise, this is looking pretty solid, particularly Tilda Swinton.
New from Hasbro!!
Three new Episode III TV spots aimed at kids show up online. If you find yourself with high hopes for this final installment, these should help recalibrate your expectations to accord with the other two prequels.
Rock of Ages.
The new trailer for Ridley Scott’s Crusader-pic Kingdom of Heaven is now online, and while it looks nice enough, I have to concur with the AICN guys: It’s hard to take the movie seriously with the goofy college-metal in the background.
Being Stanley Kubrick.
Also in today’s trailer bin, a french site premieres the trailer for Color Me Kubrick, with John Malkovich in the true story of a directorial impostor.
Slap-Stick(s).
Moviefone obtains a full scene from Hitchhiker’s (and one not in the book), namely Arthur, Ford, Zaphod, and Marvin trying to cross a field of those slap-happy doodads from the first trailer. A bit goofy on its own, but if the rest of the movie has succeeded into lulling you into Douglas Adams‘ trademark sense of humor by this point, I could see this being pretty funny.
Wonka the Sane?
Right on the heels of the recent one-sheet, Johnny Depp tries to channel a thirteen-year-old in an altogether strange new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory TV spot, courtesy of The Movie Box.
Deep-Sithed?
Uh oh…I’ve got a bad feeling about this. Some new Episode III footage (that doesn’t involve massive spoilers) shows up on the Offical Site in the form of two new TV spots. I’ve been letting my hopes rise for this final installment, but the dialogue and delivery in the “Tragedy” one in particular brought back some of that Clones fear and loathing.
Keira Fett.
Bounty hunter Keira Knightley gets backup from Mickey Rourke, Delroy Lindo, and Lucy Liu in the new trailer for Domino. This looks like a standard helping of grainy-flashy Tony Scott hokum, but Donnie Darko writer Richard Kelly’s presence is an X-factor.
Fifteen Cent Baby.
In this corner, the full trailer for Ron Howard’s Cinderella Man, starring Russell Crowe, Renee Zellweger, and Paul Giamatti. As with the last trailer, Crowe & co. still seem to be beating the Seabiscuit angle into the ground. I give, already.
