I’ve started a new category to share with the world. By world I mean the 20 or so of you that actually take time to read my inane babble and for that I thank you. I call this one TRAILER TRASH. As I’m sure you have guessed already, this is all about some of the newest movie trailers out there. Some make the film look less than desirable and others may make you want to buy the movie ticket already. Summer is almost over, with August just around the corner, and a lot movie trailers you will see are most likely set for release in the fall. There are A LOT of trailers out there already, so I won’t be highlighting every single one, but thought it best to break them down into further categories. Let’s start with animated features. There are a few animated films coming soon, but not too soon. One animated trailer is about a meaty weather phenomenon, another is about what happens when a human is the alien (both of which will be released this fall) and our third trailer is about a sneaky despicable person (this one won’t be released for another year). So without further delay, enjoy these three animated films, two of them are coming soon at least.

Planet 51 is a galactic sized animated alien adventure comedy revolving around American astronaut Captain Charles “Chuck” Baker, who lands on Planet 51 thinking he’s the first person to step foot on it. To his surprise, he finds that this planet is inhabited by little green people who are happily living in a white picket fence world reminiscent of a cheerfully innocent 1950s America, and whose only fear is that it will be overrun by alien invaders…like Chuck! With the help of his robot companion “Rover” and his new friend Lem, Chuck must navigate his way through the dazzling, but bewildering, landscape of Planet 51 in order to escape becoming a permanent part of the Planet 51 Alien Invaders Space Museum.

In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universal’s new 3-D CGI feature, Despicable Me. Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad. The world’s greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.
