Netflix just released the official trailer for Adam Sandler’s Hubie Halloween, which feels like a mix of Sandler’s The Waterboy and Murder Mystery, and it looks like Sandler is back to his wheelhouse again after last year’s Uncut Gems. Most would remember Sandler’s comment that if he doesn’t get an Oscar nomination for Uncut Gems, he’s going to come back with a film so bad on purpose, just so he could make us all pay. Hubie Halloween isn’t that revenge […]

There are few things I enjoy more (in a very uncool way) than scouring through old trailers, seeing how effective they are post-release and just how much they ended up actually revealing. Spoiler: the answer is almost always a lot. The best horror movie trailers, however, leave some scares up their sleeve while also promising a tonne of terror, sometimes without even revealing a thing. Below you will find some of horror’s greatest trailers, ranging from the contemporary to the […]

The teaser trailer for the final (or so we are told) Rambo movie has dropped. The internet is screaming with nostalgia as Rambo takes a walk down old town road. The song is definitely a bit played out at this point, but it’s a smart inclusion since we have something familiar on top of something else that’s familiar – Rambo going all badass with his arrows and knives and traps. The premise of the movie is Rambo taking on a […]

Director Alexandre Aja has upped the stakes for Crawl. Alligators are apparently not enough of a danger, so we have an impending hurricane thrown in for good measure. This ensures that our main protagonists will not be able to get help from the proper authorities, leaving them to fend for themselves against the gators and inclement weather. Paramount is quick to tack on Sam Raimi’s association with the movie, even though he is only producing and not directing. After the […]

Ahead of its release in May, the first full trailer for John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum has been released and it features a handsome bit of violence and Keanu Reeves’ continuous documentation of his vampiric powers. “In this third installment of the adrenaline-fueled action franchise, super-assassin John Wick (Keanu Reeves) returns with a $14 million price tag on his head and an army of bounty-hunting killers on his trail. After killing a member of the shadowy international assassin’s guild, […]

It’s the classic home invasion story: a young couple comes to a new home and finds that it’s haunted by a strange man who has it in for them. Normally, this trope might come through a trailer as a tired repetition of thousands of its predecessors. However, The Intruder already seems to feature stellar acting and a subtle but effective gender reversal that sees the male half of the couple anxious and uncomfortable in the afflicted home. Screen Gems acquired […]

The first LEGO movie was a satisfyingly meta example of children’s cinema done right. More than a few adults secretly hum its catchy theme song, Everything Is Awesome, on days when they feel like an interchangeable part in a world of uniform bricks. Warner Brothers have now released the trailer for the hotly anticipated sequel, and it appears that everything is not awesome in the LEGOverse. Considering the conclusion of the last LEGO movie, it seems likely that this follow-up […]

There are right ways to adapt beloved childhood cartoon franchises. Niantic did a great job with the Pokemon Go update to the still-popular card game that once boosted the anime’s worldwide popularity sky-high. Various Pokemon animated movies have pleased longtime fans. Now, the world is getting a live-action Pokemon adaptation that it didn’t really ask for. Justice Smith will team up with Pikachu (Ryan Reynolds) for a snarky, hardbitten detective tale that looks like nothing more than an adultification of […]

Based on the bestselling book, Dumplin’ will join Miss Congeniality, Little Miss Sunshine, and Drop Dead Gorgeous in the vaunted category of fish-out-of-water fashion show movies. Following an unlikely beauty queen and her rigid mother, the film will follow Willa Dead Dixon’s (Danielle MacDonald) debut on the pageant stage. The world of beauty queens and comically harmless talents is perhaps easy to lampoon, but its transformation into an absurd parody is eternally a fresh source of catharsis. Dumplin’ will look […]

Fans of the manga and anime have awaited the live-action version of Alita: Battle Angel with trepidation. Past live-action versions of beloved anime staples, including Death Note and Sailor Moon, have failed to meet expectations to various degrees. Considering the limitless nature of a cartoon special effects budget, this isn’t particularly surprising. However, the latest improvements in CGI are changing all of that. The fact that Robert Rodriguez is directing this adaptation is heartening for people who know his work. […]

Fighting With My Family has seen much controversy on its route to release, but after much anticipation, the first official trailer has landed. The biopic focuses on British wrestler, Paige, who really broke the mould for female superstars and started a revolution that has seen a total overhaul in women’s wrestling and how its presented to the masses. Fighting With My Family tells the story of Paige’s journey, which started with a childhood dream and saw her through to debuting […]

The latest stop-motion animation from Laika has released a new trailer. Missing Link will focus on the journey of a Yeti-like creature who teams up with an explorer to find other members of his species. The title of the film is apparently a spoof on the idea that the main character (the link, played by Zach Galifianakis) represents an evolutionary connection between humans and our apelike ancestors. The trailer suggests a fish-out-of-water story centered on the link’s awkward attempts to […]

After a circuitous, years-long journey from Warner Brothers to Netflix, Andy Serkis’ Jungle Book adaptation will release in theaters this December. The film, whose production started at Warner Brothers in 2012, presents a darker take on Rudyard Kipling’s classic story of a boy raised by wolves. The last-minute announcement marks a continuation of Netflix’s recent move to release its original movies in traditional cinemas. Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle will join The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, a Coen Brothers film, […]

The first instalment of Illumination’s The Secret Life Of Pets was fine. It probably didn’t warrant a sequel on its own, but this is a studio that needs a little more than Grue on its resume if it wants to hold its own against the Mouse. Therefore, a sequel we shall have. All things being level, the setup for this film is promising. Anyone who has ever lived with a companion animal knows that they’re anything but simple creatures, and Max […]

If you thought you liked the Coen Brothers’ take on the traditional Western movie, then brace yourself: the duo that brought us a grittier remake of True Grit is about to get anthological. The Ballad of Lester Scruggs will feature grizzled prospectors, covered wagons, and a showy, dolled-up gunfighter who would put the Duke in his pinkest collared shirts to perfect shame. In this trailer, we get the sense of a snappy, action-focused set of disparate stories, themselves possibly a […]
