New trailer for 'Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World'

Robert Rodriguez's upcoming "Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World" hits theaters Aug. 19, 2011, and a brand-new trailer for the family flick has landed on the Web. Check it out after the jump; it's just as silly as the previous trailer.

In the film, Jessica Alba plays a retired spy reactivated to participate in a dangerous mission to bring down the evil Time Keeper. She is also the mother of two stepchildren, who will be the new Spy Kids. Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara co-star.

Judging by this footage, this 3D sequel will be a tad better than the previous film, even though it looks likek we're in for terrible performances and bad dialogue. But yes, the kids will love it, making sure their parents drop some cash on the thing.

'Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World' trailer

Dimension Films' "Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World" opens in theaters Aug. 19, 2011, and the first feature trailer is now finally online See below. I can't say I love either the title or this preview, but who knows, maybe Robert Rodriguez's fourth film in the series will entertain a little.

One thing is for sure: Jessica Alba looks stunning in this thing, but her acting seems disastrous. In fact, none of the acting seems superb, but I guess no one cares about it anyway. Kids will love this thing, and I guess that's what matters. I'd rather have them watch this instead of films like "The Zookeeper."

In the family flick, Alba plays a retired spy reactivated to participate in a dangerous mission to bring down the evil Time Keeper. She is also the mother of two stepchildren, who will be the new Spy Kids. Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara co-star, as do Melissa Cordero and Mason Cook.

New 'Machete' clip with Michelle Rodriguez

Want some tacos? Ask Michelle Rodriguez, because she sells them in Robert Rodriguez's upcoming action flick "Machete," which arrives in theaters Sept. 3, 2010. Here is a brand-new clip from the movie.

Not much action here at all, but Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez sure look good. That said, I do feel it's about time we get to see some explosions or machete action. Hey, we deserve it, right?

Robert Rodriguez really directing 'Deadpool'?

It is moving from a rumor to a possibility. Robert Rodriguez, the man behind "Sin City," "Shorts" and the upcoming "Machete," could end up directing 20th Century Fox's "X-Men" spinoff "Deadpool."

The rumor has been circling the Web for a while, but the L.A. Times says Rodriguez and the studio are in fact now negotiating. A deal is not in place, but it seems the talks are getting more intense. Good to hear...

Rodriguez would be a very interesting choice. "Deadpool" is a big film, and this guy has what it takes to create something wildly entertaining. Right now though, "Spy Kids 4: Armageddon" is Robert's priority.

Lindsay Lohan in Machete

How about Lindsay Lohan making an ugly face while dressed as a nun and holding a big gun? You got it in the movie still above. It's from Robert Rodriguez's upcoming movie "Machete," opening Sept. 3, 2010.

FilmTotaal.nl posted the pic, which shows Lohan as April. Danny Trejo stars as a man who is orderd to kill a senator but ends up being double-crossed. He then seeks revenge against those who screwed him.

Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriquez, Cheech Marin and Don Johnson co-star. I don't think Lohan's role is that huge, but here's to hoping she'll deliver at least a halfway acceptable performance.
