I think it’s safe to say two of the most anticipated August releases, despite one being a remake and the other a sequel, are TOTAL RECALL and THE EXPENDABLES 2. Well, with July now firmly upon us, a new pair of TV adverts for both flicks have been molded to muster some excitement. Cop a peek below and see if they’ve succeeded.
Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid, even though he’s got a beautiful wife (Kate Beckinsale) who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man. Finding himself on the run from the police – controlled by Chancellor Cohaagen, the leader of the free world – Quaid teams up with a rebel fighter to find the head of the underground resistance and stop Cohaagen. The line between fantasy and reality gets blurred and the fate of his world hangs in the balance as Quaid discovers his true identity, his true love, and his true fate.
Starring Colin Farrell, Kate Beckinsale (below), Jessica Biel, Ethan Hawke, Bryan Cranston and Bill Nighy – TOTAL RECALL opens August 3rd.
On August 17th comes EX2:
Mr. Church reunites the Expendables for what should be an easy paycheck, but when one of their men is murdered on the job, their quest for revenge puts them deep in enemy territory and up against an unexpected threat.
Liam Hemsworth, Jason Statham, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Jet Li, Charisma Carpenter, Chuck Norris, Dolph Lundgren, Scott Adkins, Terry Crews, Randy Couture and Nikolette Noe
