Trailer: Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw
Dwayne Johnson made some waves when he announced a spinoff to the Fast and Furious franchise that would focus on his one time villian/now hero, Luke Hobbs. I’ve felt it should move in a different direction, particularly with Paul Walker’s passing. The series could have ended at Fast Five, but we needed that little bit of closure to connect the fates of Han (Sung Kang) and Gisele (Gal Gadot). Then again, without those...
Trailer: Pet Sematary (2019)
Well, this came out of left field. With last year’s adaptation of Stephen King’s “It” being a suprise success, it looks like Paramount is throwing their hat into the ring. Pet Sematary is a remake of Mary Lambert’s 1989 horror classic, and from the looks of the trailer captures all of the elements of both that film and of King’s 1983 Novel. Directed by Dennis Widmeyer and Kevin Kolsch (Starry Eyes),...
The Too Old to Die Young Teaser
Here’s one for the cinemaphile’s glossary. In cinema circles, an Auteur is described as “a filmmaker whose personal influence and artistic control over a movie are so great that the filmmaker is regarded as the author of the movie” (Wikipedia). I’ve looked at films as a three-way set of responsibilities. You have the writer, because without the story, there’s nothing. You’ve the Director, who...
Deadpool 2 Drops a Full Trailer
(This was also posted over at Through the Shattered Lens) Unless we’re dealing with a story like The Lord of the Rings, where the second film is just a placeholder for the more epic finale, a sequel usually comes with a great deal of responsibility. It has to be larger in scope, with more of everything. If we’re lucky, the audience will be fully invested in the story arc as we watch our favorite characters return to face greater...
The Venom Teaser Trailer
You’ve heard of Venom, haven’t you? Remember Spider-Man 3, and that weird character Topher Grace played? Or maybe you’ve read the comics over time, played the character in countless videogames? With the latest teaser trailer for Venom, Sony is betting that you already know the character so well that they don’t have to show him or his name. He’s just that popular, and you should already know. Unfortunately, the trailer isn’t that...
Deadpool, Meet Cable (A Teaser)
“Well, that’s just lazy writing.” Ah, good old Wade Wilson. Fox just dropped a teaser trailer for the Deadpool Sequel (which doesn’t really have a name at this point other than maybe Deadpool 2). This one focuses on Cable and shows off some of his combat abilities. It looks like everyone’s back on board here, with Deadpool breaking the 4th wall, as usual. Deadpool 2 will be in cinemas this...
