One day, two big happenings pertaining to The Hunger Games.  It's still early, but the second big news on the potentially huge adaptation of Suzanne Collins's first novel in her dystopian Panem trilogy is the release of a new theatrical trailer.  It's brief, clocking in at not much more than one minute, but it does a lot with the time, hitting a bunch of big emotional notes, getting across the basic concept of the eponymous competition, and setting up the dystopia of Panem.

The found footage style has been limited almost exclusively to the horror genre, with the faux-real, shaky cam aesthetic lending itself to cheap jump scares and characters panting incessantly.  The new found footage feature Chronicle, though, eschews the horror trappings of The Blair Witch Project, Paranormal Activity, and even Cloverfield.  Instead, Chronicle, grafts the now-ubiquitous superhero origin story onto the found footage gimmick.  A new, final trailer for the film, which arrives in theaters tomorrow, suggests that the combination could provide a jolt of life to the young found footage form.

Valentine's Day and New Year's Eve.  For two consecutive years, director Garry Marshall and screenwriter Katherine Fugate served up holiday-themed ensembles unreasonably packed with bankable movie stars and romantic comedy cliches.  Had New Year's Eve been a bigger hit, you can only imagine that we have spent the next several years besieged by these novelty offerings until the holidays were finally exhausted.  That could still happen, actually.  But even if it does, we'll always have MLK Day, a parody trailer for a fictitious romantic comedy that expertly eviscerates the cloying, manipulative style of those films.

With just a few days until the film actually hits theaters, a new trailer for The Grey has made its way online.  This trailer is notable for two things, being an age-restricted red band deal, and also being thoroughly badass.  It quite effectively exploits several very basic fears both modern and instinctual, from the fear of being in a place crash to the fear of freezing to death to the altogether more immediate fear of getting eaten by f*cking wolves.

Both Jason Segel and Ed Helms are comedic actors who star in movies between playing leads on popular television series, with Segel on How I Met Your Mother and Helms on The Office.  Now they're both starring in Jeff, Who Lives at Home, a comedic drama from Jay Duplass and Mark Duplass, the duo who wrote, directed, and produced mumblecore mainstays The Puffy Chair and Baghead, as well as 2010's Cyrus.  Segel plays the eponymous Jeff and Helms is his brother Pat, who is having some Porsche and wife-related problems while his sibling attempts to parse out his own existence and destiny.  The first trailer is online, and it promises that the film will be another enjoyably low-key, funny, Duplasstastic little tale with lovable characters.
