After thoroughly enjoying Marvel’s Luke Cage (review coming soon!) imagine my surprise to see a new trailer for Marvel and Netflix’s upcoming Iron Fist on Twitter. https://twitter.com/thebestofmarvel/status/783224733575839744 There’s no reveal (yet) of Iron Fist–which is a good thing–but it’s very mysterious and harkens back to the character’s origins. Pretty cool.
I have to admit that I didn’t expect this trailer to drop quite so soon (especially since my last post was for the movie poster). So here’s the trailer, and what’s interesting is that we get a lot of Javier Bardem and no Johnny Depp at all. Is that an artistic choice? Could it have […]
While not strictly speaking ‘trailers,’ I don’t quite know where to put this latest crop of Doctor Strange motion posters. And while admittedly there’s less ‘motion’ than a curious melting around the abdomen, that’s technically motion too. Here’s Baron Mordo (that’s his name and not a title, honorary or otherwise, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor) Might I offer you […]
Richie Keen’s Fist Fight looks to be pretty funny (and Charlie Day looks pretty short, especially when you consider that Ice Cube can’t be any taller than 5’6, give or take) but it also looks particularly one-note. And while I haven’t seen the movie, I get the feeling that it’s going to end one of […]
And by ‘Sneak Peek’ they mean they aren’t going to show us anything that’s in the least bit interesting. Though that not quite true. Keep in mind that there was a controversy earlier this year over not only the casting of Scarlett Johannson as a character that in the anime was Japanese, but rumors […]
Visually, Morten Tyldum’s Passengers holds a huge debt to Pixar’s Wall-E, Danny Boyle’s Sunshine and Apple’s design esthetic. In other words, it’s attractive, but doesn’t appear to strike any new ground. The same thing can be said of the story, which revolves around two people who accidentally emerge from suspended animation 90 years too (or was it?), […]
I had never heard of Stacy Title’s The Bye Bye Man–or Stacy Title, which doesn’t sound like a real name, for that matter–before yesterday, but it’s a horror movie so it got my attention. What’s interesting is that it’s from STX Entertainment, who earlier this year released The Boy. It seems to me that they’re […]
I think Mike Flanagan (Oculus, Hush) is quite a talented director. That being said, I find the latest trailer from his upcoming Ouija 2: Origin of Evil in some ways a bit disturbing (and not in the good, creepy, what’s that shadow doing there kind of way). It’s not that I think that it’s going […]
The trailer for Rings dropped yesterday, and having just rewatched it a moment ago leaves me with a few questions: First, wasn’t the whole mystery of Samara solved in The Ring 2 (it’s been awhile since I’ve seen it, but I recall her being set free or something along those lines)? Now, I understand that […]
I don’t tend to be a comedy guy–I enjoy them, but don’t tend to go out of my way to catch one–but the trailer for Kelly Fremon’s The Edge of Seventeen really caught my attention. First off, it apparently recognizes that the best comedy comes from tragedy, so there’s a girl, Nadine Byrd (Hailee Steinfeld), […]
