Creed was a critical and commercial success from director Ryan Coogler that no one expected. Many critics and fans were more than happy with this inclusion into the Rocky franchise and eagerly waited for any and all news for Creed 2.  The spin-off and sequel to the franchise that made Sylvester Stallone a household name finally gave actor Michael B. Jordan the recognition that had been long overdue. Finally, we got a trailer for Creed 2 dropped online earlier this year and now MGM has released official stills from the movie to tide the fans over until the movie hits…

Anyone that has sat through a Mission: Impossible film gets the gist of what they’re about. “Your mission, should you choose to accept it…”; check. Plot twist and betrayal; check. Stunts involving Tom Cruise that would make Evil Knievel shit his pants; check. Yet, there’s something else that comes along with these films that speaks volumes, and we’re not talking hair volume. Actually, yes, we are. Sure, every movie sees Cruise sporting a new do, but each installment in the franchise comes with a level of character growth that gives the film more layers than expected. Mission: Impossible (1996) In…

While attending San Diego Comic Con this past weekend, I was able to chat with 2000 AD’s Michael Molcher, about their upcoming projects that include the highly anticipated Judge Dredd series, Judge Dredd: Mega-City One. We also spoke about other potential characters they have lined up, and the recently announced Rogue Trooper movie coming from Duncan Jones. I was talking to one of your associates about Rogue Trooper. Michael: Yeah. And I know Duncan Jones just got announced as director for that film, so I was wondering – why did you guys decide to choose Duncan Jones or did he…

The Venom movie is a film that has the potential to be really good – or really bad. Some fans have cast some heavy doubt on the film, due to the fact that it won’t feature Spider-Man – who is a key character to Venom’s origin story. Whatever the case may be, the film’s last trailer brought some positive buzz back, minus the way symbiote was pronounced. The latest footage should also get people talking. Sadly, we don’t have it yet, but we do have a very detailed description of the San Diego Comic Con footage: Brock walks into a…

The upcoming Halloween movie took over Hall H at this year’s San Diego Comic Con, as part of the Universal panel which also featured the first trailer for Glass. While attending the panel, we learned quite a bit of interesting stuff about the film – as well as a clip from the film, in which we have a detailed description of. We can also safely say that fans of the original are definitely not going to be disappointed. The footage description: Kids are trick or treating. They bump into Michael Myers. This is all a tracking shot. Myers walks into…

The first Trailer For M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass has been released, and fans of Split and Unbreakable are definitely going to be excited for this one. We had been treated to some first looks which included images, posters and teasers, but now, we can finally say that the trailer is here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95ghQs5AmNk It’s also been revealed that Sarah Paulson will play the therapist for the main three characters in the movie, played by James McAvoy, Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson. We mentioned the posters and teasers, and we have them for you below: You cannot contain what you are.…

“Let me give you a tip. If you want to make some money here, use your white voice.” I’ll be honest with you, I had never of heard of Boots Riley before seeing this film. Riley has a lengthy music career—which I have yet to check out. Sorry To Bother You is his directorial debut, a film for which he also wrote. It premiered at 2018’s Sundance with critics and audience members calling it one of the most original comedies in years. I would have to agree with that sentiment because I had no idea what was in store for…

“Suit up! It might get weird.” The Incredibles came out in 2004 when superhero films were always hyped to be amazing but faltered when released. Sam Rami’s 2002 Spider-Man and 2004’s Spider-Man 2 were the exception. Some misguided people would argue that the first two X-Men films were also exceptions. The reason 2004’s The Incredibles was so successful was that it took the family dynamic and made it into the Fantastic Four film we never got. So, it’s understandable that adults would melt into superhero fan boys or girls after fourteen years of anticipations for a sequel. That level of…

Ari Aster’s work is an acquired taste; his shorts – which you can find on YouTube – are evidence of that. The director has slowly built himself to his first film, Hereditary, and is already making his presence known in the horror genre. The movie’s unsettling nature works towards grief and generational trauma with the backdrop of supernatural elements. What Aster does with these is combine them into an elevated horror film that will leave a mark on anyone viewing it. Hereditary, directed by Aster and written by him, follows the story of a family dealing with a serious and…

“Can I have everybody’s attention. I’m looking for the guys who murdered my wife.” It’s easy to have a narrow mindset when it comes to the trailers for Blumhouse’s latest film Upgrade, and rightfully so. The film’s story follows vengeful killing machine Grey Trace (Logan Marshall-Green, or Great Value Tom Hardy) as he navigates his way through the not too distant dystopian future to kill the thugs that murdered his wife–a wife that was just a great plot device.  The only possible way for Trace to do this after becoming a quadriplegic is to sign up for an experimental procedure…
