Superman Returns trailer, which was almost as incomprehensible as the exposition in the movie that followed;
There's a long one of those I have only seen in snippets on the incidental TVs around the local cineplexes, the trailer I've seen is the "I so loved these people, that I sent them you, my only begotten son" one... never has the expression "I think this is getting needlessly messianic" felt so appropriate.
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, a.k.a. another "white American goes to Asia, kicks all the Asian people's butts in competition, and screws their women too" movie;
Yeah, that's one on the "Why on earth isn't this going straight to video where I don't have to be aware of it" pile.
Ghost Rider, in which yet another actor takes a role that doesn't show his face (a flaming skeleton on a motorbike? Seriously?);
Seriously, and depending on which version of the character it is, I think the property has potential. [ This said, I haven't seen the trailer. ]
On the other hand, it has Nicolas Cage in it, so I'm almost certainly going to see it anyway.
My Super Ex-Girlfriend, which packed an amazing amount of offense to feminist sensibilities into a very short time
Yes indeed. yuck uck yuck.
and The Omen remake, to which I can only say, "Why?"
That actually looks rather good, though, or at least creepy and with people who can act. [ Though I'm not sure there is a "why ?" beyond 06/06/06 striking people as a cool release date. ]
