Guy Ritchie has been away from the gangster movie for far too long. Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels is the film that put Ritchie on the map. He followed it up with the excellent Snatch. These fast-talking gangster comedies set the bar...
It's easy to be skeptical of anything Joker or Harley Quinn-related that DC Films and Warner Bros. puts out after Suicide Squad. That disaster of an Oscar-winning film established the "edgy" corner of the DC movies that no one really asked...
Back in 2014, Kingsman: The Secret Service was a bigger hit than most people expected it to be. Featuring some modern spy action, a great villain, as well as a cast of characters that interacted in fun and organic ways, it was a pleasant s...
Now, I don’t know why, but someone thought it would be fun to sync up the audio from Cats with the trailer for The Mandalorian. And the worst thing is, it fits. Either, trailers nowadays are way too formulaic and concocted in a lab wh...
Ever feel like you're stuck in a time loop? That's pretty much where I was at watching this new trailer for Terminator: Dark Fate. It's certainly better than that first trailer with the gosh darn Bjork cover, but I can't shake the feeling ...
I’m really impressed with Netflix’s slate of recently announced shows. They’re gearing up to be genuinely original, funny features and series that don’t just masquerade as great drama for the sake of awards season...
It's been a while since I've had such giddy excitement for a movie, but Joker has me feeling all sorts of glee. With a little over a month until the movie releases, Warner Bros. went ahead and released the second and final trailer for the ...
Doing a movie in a single take is all the rage these days, so we should have all assumed that someone would make a zombie movie using that same hook. And so here we are with One Cut of the Dead, the Birdman of zombie movies--except this lo...
The entertainment world is aflame from a number of Marvel Studios Disney+ announcements at D23, but Marvel Television also reminded us who started it all. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. had its own D23 panel yesterday, with the cast and crew unvei...
If you’ve come across anything like the recent drama The Looming Tower, you’ll already have an idea that post-9/11 dramas are in vogue at the moment. The new Amazon- produced series The Report follows the gripping tren...
When it comes to political dramas, Netflix have it in the bag. With The Crown, Designated Survivor, and basically a huge roster leaning towards political scandal, suffice to say they have the genre covered. And on the other side ...
Last year, I felt pretty strongly about the upcoming adaptation of Little Women from Greta Gerwig. It had all the right ingredients: Greta Gerwig for one, Meryl Streep, Timothée Chalamet, Saoirse Ronan. Sure Emma Stone had been re...
A24 has been hitting it out of the park in recent years. Where as smaller distribution companies are either being bought out or facing bankruptcy. The still young A24 has been putting out award winners and crowd pleasers. While The Kill Te...
There’s a saying: people don’t need a doctor, they need an audience. Now I’m not telling you to cut off your doctor and get up on your soapbox (please don’t) -- but there’s definitely a therapeutic element ...
After a first look at Queen & Slim last month, Universal today dropped an extended trailer, pulling us deeper into the world of intrigue and all-too-common police misconduct and brutality. With a string of impressive music video and ...
I think we all knew that Marvel's Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con was going to be big. It almost always is. However, I dont think we were expecting this much new content for the next two years. In the span of two years we have five new ...
It's been a long time coming but the official trailer for Netflix's fantasy series The Witcher is here. Fans who loved both the book series and video game series can finally see Henry Cavill in action. The epic trailer made its debut at th...
I've been trying to rewrite this intro for the better for part 10 minutes just trying to succinctly sum up my thoughts on the Cats trailer now that it's here, but I could never find a way that accurately summed up my feelings for it. There...
In December 2015, T. Christian Miller and Ken Armstrong published an essay online called An Unbelievable Story of Rape, which centred on the story of an 18-year-old woman, Marie. In it, the writers describe how Marie was reportedly sexua...
Time to go on another exciting ride with Angelina Jolie as Maleficent and this time things are seriously heating up. The full trailer finally made its debut this morning and it looks amazing. Aurora is finally getting her happily ever afte...
I don't know if this is a popular sentiment, but I haven't been the biggest fan of the live-action remake crusade that Disney has been going on. Whenever I look at these new movies, all I can see are dollar signs in Disney's eyes, milking ...
For kids that grew up in the mid 2000's, if there was one institution for Saturday nights it was Teen Titans. I would remember staying up late Saturday nights to watch the latest Teen Titans episode and talking about it with my friends at ...
I wasn't expecting seeing a TV show be announced during Ubisoft's E3 press conference, but stranger things have happened. During Ubisoft's presser, Rob McElhenney of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fame took the stage of to announc...
It was bound to happen, but Pixar seems to be receiving more criticism as of late. Notwithstanding the very necessary changes at the top, there's been mounting concerns about the amount of sequels (albeit not always direct ones) being made...
Buckle up and hold onto your cookies, nerds, because Season 2 of Final Space is officially on its way. This week two new trailers have dropped for the second instalment, which were released on both Youtube (by AdultSwim, the Cartoon Ne...
It's kinda surreal to think that Jaws at one time held the title for scariest thing in America. That shark was so effective at freaking people out the actual shark population declined by a whole lot as a result. In the movies they qui...
A few days ago the news dropped that season 5 of Black Mirror was ready to roll, and today Netflix released a handful of trailers detailing what we can expect in the new season. Landing on 5 June, the three new previews may few in number ...
Now that Game of Thrones is over, it seems like HBO is throwing us new trailers every other day to keep people subscribed to them now that the epic fantasy drama has ended. First we had Watchmen debut its trailer while still not givin...
In a weird, unprecedented move for a film trailer, Spider-Man star and infamous leaker Tom Holland gave a spoiler warning for Avengers: Endgame right before the trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home. It turned out to be quite necessary, be...
With all thing's considered, I don't think the first trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog could have ever been good. The character's reputation has been driven through the mud in recent years, so even if the trailer turned out to be outstanding ...
There are a lot of movies in the world. Too many perhaps, of every genre and style. We've seen it all, experienced every permutation of every storyline that will ever be. The fact that people continue to make new movies is honestly somethi...
Last year around this time, I wrote an article where I said that Star Wars was becoming an oversaturated franchise thanks to Disney milking the franchise for all of the green milk that it's worth. I talked about how Disney was content with ...
When She-Ra and the Princesses of Power released on Netflix last November, it developed a fairly modest yet strong fanbase. The series took a franchise that, let's be honest here, was designed solely for the purpose of selling toys an...
You know those movies that you can just tell are going to be bad from the first trailer? Like, you want to give a movie the benefit of the doubt and hope that the full release will be good, but the first trailer is just so bad that you can...
The second season of One Punch Man has been hotly anticipated for years now with fans certain that the four year wait worth be worth it. However, with only three weeks away until the premiere, all of that goodwill seems to be quickly erodi...
We're nary a month and some change away from the final chapter of Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and in case you lived under a rock for the past year, Marvel wants to make sure you know Endgame is coming with a new trailer. O...
Cults are endlessly fascinating from beginning to end, morphing from friendly to freaky with liberal amounts of insanity usually. Cults and their charismatic leaders have always been prime movie fodder because the cults are inherently myst...
Can I just say how surprised I am that Shazam! actually looks like a great movie? I'm not even saying this like I'm giving the DCEU some kind of curve where even a passable DCEU is considered good, Shazam! actually looks like a fun and uni...
Can you believe that there was a time that Angry Birds was the hottest game in the world? When the mobile scene was still fresh and young and wasn't overcome by microtransations and pay-to-win mechanics, Angry Birds was the first real hit ...
Bonnie and Clyde are indelible American icons, popularized in every medium possible, from film to television and song to written page. All that was really missing was a Netflix adaptation. Well, scratch that off their checklist of to-dos. ...
