We’ve got a little bit of some zombies, couple of rebellions, lovers on the run mixed with a heaping pile of death, action and intrigue. These are the trailers you are going to want to watch.  American Honey Star (Lane) is a teenage girl who meets a group of other teenagers that travels and sells magazines, and joins them without second a thought. The clip starts off looking carefree and full of youthful promise, while inspiring us to try and remember when that might have been important to us at that age. Set before us is a group of people…

Let me start off by talking about Nicolas Winding Refn and the way mainstream views his work. Refn came on the American scene with the film Drive starring Ryan Gosling. It was a hit critically and commercially for an indie film. The mainstream wanted more of that but got Only God Forgives that was very polarizing for audience members. With that being said, don’t expect a film like Drive in The Neon Demon. In fact, expect the same polarizing attitude and something totally different, but in a good way, for this film. Now, let’s get on with the show. As…

God damn, god damn there were a lot of trailers. A Couple of coming of age stories, some for the kids and some for the horror fans. Sit back and cool off in front of the fan as these previews let you forget, or remind you that summer is here. Let Me Make You a Martyr I was immediately drawn in by this trailer. Having been a Sons of Anarchy fan, part of it has to do with seeing three members from that series cast in this film. There is also no doubt that Marilyn Manson has a mysterious air…

After my last article about Bryan Singer, you might be asking yourself, “Well Mark, how would you do the X-Men franchise?” And I’d respond with, “First, I would tell Fox to take a break from X-Men and let five years go by so that the previous films can be somewhat a distant memory. Second, sit your lethargic fanboy ass down (as if you weren’t) and let me shoot an idea to you.” 6. X-Men: Hope The first installment of a two-part trilogy would start off with the mutants and X-Men fully established in the world. After the events of House…

Lots of trailers to get to in this week’s trailer roundup: Collide Haven’t had enough of Nicholas Hoult? Well, Open Road Films has got the fix for you.

But when Hoult crosses the path of a dangerous gangster, played by Sir Anthony Hopkins, Jones is now put in danger and it’s Hoult’s mission to save her.…

Here we go again. Another X-Men film is upon us for the 9th time around. Singer in the director’s chair for the 4th time and Kinberg for his 2nd, or 3rd if you count Last Stand. This time, a new set of actors are placed in familiar roles, along with a new villain but still bringing in the cast from the two previous X-Men films. And frankly, I am sick and f**king tired of Singer. The story has the omega level mutant known as Apocalypse awoken in the 80’s to gather a new set of Horsemen to rein havoc and…

The X-Men franchise has been a part of American pop culture for decades. When created in 1963 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, the group was used as an allegory for change and the Civil Rights Movement. As time passed, the group has grown with us like a family of misfits wanting to belong. With Charles Xavier playing a surrogate father to so many of his students, you can’t help but want to be part of the team just to hear the man’s words of knowledge and guidance. After so many failed attempts to bring the X-Men to the big…

There are a few movie trailers but mainly a lot of TV show trailers that were released. The nostalgia is strong with this one. So go forth and relive your days of “on the edge TV watching” like you did in high school or in college. Enjoy. Lethal Weapon They’re back! Well, sort of. It is not a 5th movie with Mel Gibson and Danny Glover. Being that their last movie in the franchise came out nearly 20 years ago, they’re a bit old to reprise their roles anyway. It’s a reboot as a television series on the FOX…
