UPDATED – The direct links expired today at 9 PM, PST. Stick with the YouTube links now, kiddies.

The new Spidey trailer debuted a couple days ago at San Francisco’s WonderCon, and was featured during last night’s Heroes episode. To briefly summarize, it features a lot of Peter and Mary Jane’s love story, and a crazy badass fight sequence.

Today, finally, it’s available on NBC’s site, with the main site link right here. Or, if you’re looking to download directly, here are some direct links to the files:

480p HD Version (229 MB)

720p HD Version (285 MB)

Make sure you have Quicktime 7. Though it goes without saying, you won’t need Quicktime if you happen to stick purely to YouTube versions.

Year Zero, the new album from Nine Inch Nails has a teaser trailer.

Yeah, that spooked me too.

The viral marketing campaign to get the word out on this has gone above and beyond youtube videos or strategicly placed lite brites. Following tour dates in Portugal and Spain, NIN concertgoers have been finding USB flash drives left in bathroom stalls containing new songs from the album. Some of these drives contain files of static that when analyzed through a spectrogram reveal images or phone numbers leading to clips of more songs or bizarre 911 calls. Its a good thing NIN fans are so willing to dissect every bit of info they get because I doubt other artists would live up to this scrutiny.

Year Zero has been described by NIN Mastermind Trent Reznor as a concept album and a “soundtrack to a film that doesn’t exist” about anything from the future, politics, to the end of the world. Naturally, Reznor mentions Public Enemy’s Bomb Squad production as an influence. Those less educated with Public Enemy’s work might think Nine Inch Nails is making a rap record, but he’s actually referring to the mechanical and static nature of loops and samples. The first single, “Survivalism” is already being played on many radio stations and will be added to many more today. Dial up your local rock station and request it.

Rush Hour 3. Chris Tucker’s last movie was Rush Hour 2. The one before that? Rush Hour. How is it he has only made 3 movies in a decade? Jackie Chan has made 16.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters may or may not be good. The trailer made me laugh. It opens March 23rd.

King Of California is at Sundance and doesn’t yet have distribution, but will likely see a wide release this summer. Michael Douglas stars as a mental patient who takes his daughter on a hunt for Spanish gold.

1408 is based on a Stephen King short story with John Cusack and Samuel L Jackson. I think the names are an endorsement enough of this one, but the trailer looks pretty good too.

There’s a new trailer available at the Invincible Iron Man official site, and it gives a decent glimpse of what the story will be like in the movie. It’s an interesting choice of enemies for Iron Man – ancient Chinese elemental creatures? It hardly feels like any sort of a definitive Iron Man story, let alone one worth using in his premiere solo adventure … until you check some of the desktop images at the site, clearly showing classic Iron Man villain Mandarin playing a large role in matters. Not that Mandarin’s role has been a secret mind you – It was in the advertised synopsis since day one. Just makes it all the more odd that he’s being hidden in the trailer.

As for the movie, I’m wondering how we’re going to go through three different armors (initial grey, underwater yellow, and good classic old ketchup-and-mustard, er, red-and-gold) over the course of a single story. I guess only time – 19 days to be exact – will tell.

Also, the Hellboy Animated movie (Sword of Storms) has a sequel due to hit in February, called Blood and Iron. The trailer can be found HERE. According to the Animated Hellboy blog, one of the scenes from the trailer isn’t from the movie; it’s from an “extra special DVD extra”, whatever that might mean. The blog also talks about plans for a third movie to follow this one, but will only be greenlit if DVD sales warrant it.

You’ve probably seen the trailer by now. What you might not have seen is the Japanese version of the trailer. It contains mere seconds of additional footage, padded out with Speilberg and Bay introducing the movie to Japanese audiences. Check it out.

For those of us who wanted to see more than the back of Prime’s head in the trailer, he stands tall on the cover of Empire in the UK (see left)

And of course we have more toys. Barricade, Starscream, Bumblebee, Brawl, and Ratchet all in deluxe mode. Theres also some prototypes for tiny Barricade, Prime, and Megatron….

The hotly anticipated trailer for the 2007 Transformers movie from director Michael Bay is now online at Yahoo UK.

At 1 PM EST, this trailer will be available in multiple formats on the US Yahoo Movies site.

Live Free or Die Hard’s trailer is boring as hell. And Justin Long is a poor follow up to Die Hard 3’s sidekick, Sam Jackson.

Frank Miller’s epic graphic novel is being turned into a experimental film using digital sets. Nope, not a rerun of Sin City, its a new trailer for 300

SHREK THE THIRD! DOES ANYONE CARE? NOT ME. The clip prominently features “Do You Remember Rock N Roll Radio?” by the Ramones for no reason what-so-ever, and lists Justin Timberlake as a cast member. I missed the first two movies. Can I three-peat?

iFilm collects what they call The Best Trailers of 2006. I’ve seen all of them, but only half of the movies.

The Monday Night Football on ESPN commercial for Halo 3 is here. Xbox.com has a streaming version, and Team Xbox now has a 720p version!

Much like the E3 Announcement Trailer from earlier this year, this teaser starts slow… but ends with a much bigger bang. Chief is packing a new defensive manuever as well.
