Final Spectre trailer. I have extremely high expectations. Please don't turn cartoonish. The Bond flicks are the only action movies I still give a damn to see.
Holy shit does this look amazing. The cast alone is spectacular. Also, I have only a marginal understanding of the plot after watching this so I'm appreciative of it not being ruined by the trailer.
Casey Affleck is sneaky one of my fav actors. Largely cause he chooses really good roles (Tower Heist excluded) and is only in a movie or two a year, so you can pretty much rest assured its gonna be solid.
I guess maybe I've been living under a rock, because I just heard that the next trailer drops during Monday Night Football tonight.
Why don't they just call the new Captain America movie Avengers 3 instead? Not only does it have pretty much the whole Avengers team, but now Spidey as well. Which I don't like, I think Spider-Man fucking sucks but his villains are awesome.
Spike Lee's new joint. This is one of those concepts I had in my brain as a want to be, never will be, film maker. I always envisioned a Cohen brothers Greek Comedy modern take on the story along the lines of Dr Strangelove in tone and setting. Now Spike Lee does exactly that but set in modern Chicago. He even has a Major King Kong Im guessing as a reference tot he Kubrick film. I really need to switch careers. By the way, this movie looks bonkers.
This does look bonkers. Every time I have this concept conversation with my friends, it always seems like I was the only one that read Aristophanes in high school. Glad Spike read it, too. ETA: Because somebody asked, the movie is based on the Greek play, Lysistrata. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysistrata
The best part of this movie was the initial controversy that popped up about the plot and people not realizing it was based off Lysistrata. I cannot wait until this fucking movie comes out. Living in Chicago my whole life and having driven through some of those neighborhoods, this could be some real serious shit. I am curious how they're going to do it all with the large cast.
Its shallow, but I sort of hate that seemingly the male lead is fucking Nick Cannon. Pray 4 My City that plays in the chorus is a Nick Cannon song. You have this movie that while satirical in a way, takes on a VERY serious issue and you have fucking Mr. Wild'N'Out as the male lead and dropping album tracks, it just seems silly. It would be different if he was from Chicago but motherfucker is from San Diego. I appreciate Spike Lee calling attention to a horrific situation that seems wildly detached from reality (Ive not lived here my whole life like Parker, but Ive been in Chicago 7+ years and never felt unsafe despite living miles from the most dangerous area in the country, which shows how isolated and toxic it is), but I worry the tone and the cast are going to make it not resonate as it should. Related, Teyonah Parris is beyond sexy. I'll watch the movie out of curiosity but also to watch her strut her stuff as the lead.
The two times I've seen the Zoolander trailer I have visibly shuddered when Cumberbatch comes on the screen. I've always maintained that he looks like an alien but that wig he is wearing makes it really obvious. Cannot deal. I need to go binge watch Sherlock to erase it from my brain.
Fucking X-Men: Apocalypse. Every time someone says mutant or powers I cringe so hard, but somehow I still love X-Men. This movie looks awesome.
Sacha Baron Cohen has a new film coming out early next year! Here he is premiering the trailer on Kimmel, as Borat (the trailer begins around 4:00). It looks like it might be a pretty funny movie.
OK, this just dropped, and I have to say, I'm fucking excited. Will it be an Oscar contender? Hell no. But will it be a thrill-ride of a summer block buster? Oh, hell yeah.
The first one was super-stupid summer fun, that's what this will be, I'll be seeing it for sure. It seems almost everyone from the first but Will Smith is this. Anybody noticed these decades-later sequels are happening way more frequent now?
