This Week in Trailers: ‘Ted,’ ‘Total Recall,’ ‘To Rome with Love,’ and More

Every Friday here at Flavorwire, we like to gather up the week’s new movie trailers, give them a look-see, and rank them from worst to best — while taking a guess or two about what they might tell us (or hide from us) about the movies they’re promoting. We’ve got eleven trailers for you this week, including new films from Woody Allen, Oliver Stone, and Seth McFarlane, plus Whitney Houston’s final role and Katy Perry in 3D. (Seriously.) Check ‘em all out after the jump, and share your thoughts in the comments.

Rock of Ages

Bad hair metal songs, transformed into cheeseball Hollywood musical numbers. Good actors slumming, bad actors failing. Bullshit nostalgia, repackaged and resold. There is no movie I’m looking forward to less than this one.

Wait, what’s that? They’re doing Grown-Ups 2? Scratch the previous statement.

Barely.

Roberto Begnini can be good when he is working with a good director/writer. He is great in the Jim Jarmusch films, especially "Down By Law."

RE: Total Redux "Get you-uh ahss to Lighting Depot!!!" (In the future, apparently, every office and home will be underlit like a dark Vegas ultralounge.)

Rock of Ages? More like Reek of Aging.

Hearing of a remake of Total Recal made me scream bloody murder, given the original was such stupid fun, but maybe this version will lean a little more towards the original source material, the Philip K Dick book We Can Remember It For You Wholsale. Here's hoping for a cameo from the woman with three boobs though!

Wow. I've been lucky enough to avoid that "Rock of Ages" trailer until now. If someone said they'd give me 100k to sit through that flick, I'd have to tell the to go fuck themselves.
