Sorry about the delay from yesterday folks, downity.com was out of town at the Rodeo! In this installment of the Trailer Park, we bring you “Things We Lost in the Fire”, “Death Sentence”, “Rush Hour 3″ and “Beowulf”.

Things We Lost in the Fire stars Halle Berry as a recent widow who invites her husband’s troubled best friend (played by Benicio Del Toro) to live with her and her two children. As he gradually turns his life around, he helps the family cope and confront their loss. It looks pretty sappy and unfortunately it doesn’t seem as if Benicio will be cutting any tongues out or gambling on bare-knuckle boxing matches. Bummer.

Death Sentence: When a family falls victim to a vicious attack perpetrated as a gang initiation ritual, the vengeful father vows to track down each person involved in the crime in Saw director James Wan and screenwriter Ian Jeffers feature adaptation of author Brian Garfield’s original novel. Aisha Tyler co-stars as the sympathetic homicide detective who questions her pledge to assist Kevin Bacon’s character after suspecting that he may have turned to murder as a means of exacting his revenge. (From imdb.) I won’t see this as I don’t bother with anything starring Kevin Bacon. Can’t stand the guy.

In Rush Hour 3, Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker team up again to fight crime and provide some serious slapstick, this time taking their adventure to France. I’m going to assume this one will be good. Until we hear it sucks.

First to help understand what Beowulf is, here’s the wiki for background:

Beowulf is an Old English heroic epic poem composed around 1100 AD. At 3,183 lines, it is notable for its length. The poem is untitled in the manuscript, but has been known as Beowulf since the early 19th century. As the single major surviving work of Anglo-Saxon heroic poetry, the work � in spite of dealing primarily with Scandinavian matters � has risen to such prominence that it has become “England’s national epic.”

In the poem, Beowulf, a hero of the Geats, battles three antagonists: Grendel, who is destroying Heorot and its inhabitants in Denmark, Grendel’s mother, and later in life (after he is King) a dragon. He is mortally wounded in the final battle, and after his death is buried in a barrow by his retainers.

It seems from the trailer that this movie is CG animated with the CG looking like the actual actors that are doing the voices? Either that or my eyes are fucking going and I don’t understand anything. YOU figure it out.
