Closing out the week with a tiny bit of a delay in posting, we have a batch of new updates. New trailers for Windfall, Inspector Bellamy and Monsters, plus new posters for Megamind and Fair Game.

MONSTERS, trailer #2

	Plot Summary: After a NASA probe crash lands in Mexico, strange new lifeforms begin appearing and threaten to kill everyone they meet. Release Date: October 29, 2010
	Trailer	Poster
	Rating: B Commentary: The trailer’s an unfortunate cross between Cloverfield, Quarantine and District 9. While being akin to Cloverfield would seem appropriate, a comparison to District 9 is not. Still, it provides just enough teases to entice monster movie fans.	Previous Preview: Monsters

WINDFALL

	Plot Summary: A small town finds a solution to its economic woes when a corporation says it can help revitalize them, but the windfarm they create only causes them strife. Release Date: Coming Soon
	Trailer	Poster
	Rating: B Commentary: The trailer sets the perfect tone of alarm, but doesn’t present enough information to truly form an opinion about the documentary itself.	Rating: B- Commentary: Decent color selection and a lot more inventive than a lot of mainstream films and most tepid documentary posters.
	Trailer Link: Apple Trailers Oscar Chances: It’s an also ran.

INSPECTOR BELLAMY

	Plot Summary: A police detective on holiday with his wife takes on a mysterious case. Release Date: October 29, 2010
	Trailer	Poster
	Rating: B- Commentary: The music is a bit distracting and ill-fitting to the narrative on display. There’s enough teasers to keep from giving away the plot, but make the film still seem interesting.	Rating: C- Commentary: Are producers trying for gritty realism? It doesn’t exactly work. The poster is minimally chromatic, filled with excess space and lacking any appropriately active elements.
	Trailer Link: Apple Trailers Oscar Chances: France probably won’t submit the film for consideration.

MEGAMIND, poster #7

	Plot Summary: (NEW) After years fighting against one another, a new villain emerges forcing two arch enemies to work together to defeat him. Release Date: November 5, 2010
	Trailer	Poster
	Previous Preview: Megamind	Rating: B Commentary: Playing wittily off the political posters like the one Obama used in 2008, the poster isn’t a great advertising tool for children, but might pique the interest a few adults.

FAIR GAME, poster #2

	Plot Summary: Based on the true story of the revelation of undercover CIA agent Valerie Plame’s identity to the press in retaliation for her husband’s revelation of malfeasance at the White House. Release Date: November 5, 2010
	Trailer	Poster
	Previous Preview: Fair Game	Rating: B- Commentary: It’s a nice design, but a little too limited in color. It’s too washed out and doesn’t draw your eyes’ attention like it should.
