(It’s a doll revolution.) By way of Quiddity comes this rather creepy trailer for Steven Soderbergh’s recent side project, Bubble, a tale of love and murder amid the plastic baby parts.

Conqueror Worms.
Is there life after Serenity? Well, it depends what you call life…Firefly‘s Capt. Malcolm Reynolds (Nathan Fillion), now a small-town sheriff, faces down gruesome space slugs in the trailer for James Gunn’s horror-comedy Slither, also featuring Elizabeth Banks and the inimitable Michael Rooker. (Slightly bawdier trailer here.)
Take a Number.
They hate people, but they love gatherings: The new Internet teaser for Kevin Smith’s Clerks II, which has the lovely Rosario Dawson joining Dante, Randall, Jay, Silent Bob, and a smattering of Smith regulars in Fast Food Hell, is now online. My guess is it’ll probably be watchable, if nothing else.
Let’s Roll.
The teaser for Flight 93, first of the 9/11 movies out of the box, is online. Normally, I wouldn’t be interested in this project, but the presence of Paul Greengrass (Bloody Sunday, The Bourne Supremacy, the aborted Watchmen) at the helm is an X-factor. (Expect lots of shakicam.)
Galaxy Quest.
Stabilize your rear deflectors, watch for enemy fighters…Also in today’s movie bin is the trailer for 5-22-77, a low-budget paean to seventies fanboys in which John Francis Daley (a.k.a. Sam Weir of Freaks & Geeks, all grown up) must overcome all manner of obstacles in order to catch a showing of the original Star Wars. Can Haverchuck come? (Official Site.)
You remind me of the power.
Who do? You do. The eerie new teaser for Guillermo Del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth, a sequel of sorts to Cronos and The Devil’s Backbone, is now online. (Click through the ad.)
Apocalypto Now.
“Every time I think I’m going to wake up back in the jungle…” The strange teaser for Mel Gibson’s Mayan epic Apocalypto is now online. Looks intriguing, although to be honest — with the Will Durant quote, Chichen Itza, rainforest scouting, and the panther attack — I had a hard time watching this and not thinking of Civ 4. Update: Look for the subliminal Mel…bizarre.
The Flaming Lips.
Want to see Nicholas Cage as Ghost Rider? Are you sure? From over here, he’s looking pretty straight-to-video. (Then again, Ghost Rider is a pretty straight-to-video character.)
The Devil Inside.
Seen tonight at a second viewing of Kong: the new trailer for Spike Lee’s Inside Man, a heist flick with Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster, Willem DeFoe, and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Great cast, great director…yeah, I’ll see it.
On Wrongs Swift Vengeance Waits.
The new trailer for V for Vendetta is now online. This premiered at BNAT 7 last week and got universally great reviews from the AICN fanboys, most of whom know their Moore…but, frankly, I’m not really feeling the “Matrix with knives” angle of this trailer, and John Hurt seems like he’s overdoing it.
