New Trailers for The Tourist and (Squee!!!) Harry Potter

The Tourist: Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie in a thriller?  I’m in.  This trailer is actually the second to be released.  Looks like a good story and Depp and Jolie can certainly handle themselves.  Directed by Oscar-winning director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck.  (there’s a name for ya)  I’m not a fan of the look that Depp is sporting but he’s still Johnny Depp…sigh.  Opens December 10th.

Here are a few upcoming releases that I’m excited about.  Hmmm… they all come out within 5 days of each other.
