‘Ready Player One’ Trailer: The Saccharine Novel Seems Surprisingly Dystopic In Its Adaptation
First trailer for Ready Player One is here! And! It’s…okay? Maybe it was my own reading of RPO, or maybe it’s just an early trailer, but the first look at the movie casts Cline’s source material in a far more dystopic, gritty light than I pictured when reading the novel. I definitely pictured a more bubbly, 1980s, Hughes-esque vibe. You know, a coming-of-age-with-positivity-despite-staggering-adversity type world.
‘The Defenders’ Trailer: It Only Works If Both Sides Believe They’re The Good Guys
New Defenders trailer! I’m not going to watch it, because I’m on a crusade to keep projects I’m excited for fresh! That right, I said it, I’m excited for Defenders. Why not be, right? #Optimism. #Itwontlastprobably.
Ben Affleck may already be done playing The Batman, which is completely fine
Ben Affleck may *already* be done playing Batman, after finishing up Justice League. This is fine, completely fine. He’s adequate at best in the role, and he seems to fucking hate it. So, either way. Whatever.
‘Shazam’ is the next DC movie to film, which excites three people, and I’m happy for them
Man. Really, DC? Shazam is next? Speaks to the behind the scenes fucking chaos at Warner Brothers, right? I mean. Shazam. Not The Batman. Not The Flash. Goddamn Shazam. But, hey. Here’s hoping it’s good, and here’s hoping the aforementioned delayed projects end up kicking ass, thanks to the extra time they’ve been afforded.
‘Doctor Doom’ movie being developed by ‘Fargo’ and ‘Legion’ showrunner Noah Hawley and I’m ready dude
I’m fucking euphoric about any of Noah Hawley’s upcoming projects, flat out fucking euphoric. But there’s something particularly intriguing about the creator tackling Doctor Doom, and thereby reinvigorating the feces-flecked Fantastic Four movie property.
Let’s do this.
‘Blade Runner 2049’ Trailer: There’s more to Deckard’s story (obviously)
New Blade Runner 2049 trailer! I’m not going to watch it, instead I’m opting to go in with as little knowledge of the movie as possible. Keep it fresh, if you will.
George A. Romero, creator of ‘Night of the Living Dead’, has passed away at age 77
George A. Romero has passed away after battling lung cancer, at the age of 77. Complete bummer, but at least serves as a pause for us to appreciate just how fucking *titanic* the dude was.
Thanos being helped by his children the Black Order in ‘Avengers: Infinity War’
All I know of Thanos’ Black Order comes from Jonathan Hickman and Jerome Opena’s recent work on Avengers and their Marvel event, Infinity. However, what I know of them *from* the aforementioned above, is that they’re fierce as fuck, and pretty bad ass.
This ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ trailer description is pure Marvel fanboy porn
Well, today the lucky slobs at D23 got to see an Avengers: Infinity War trailer. Half of me is filthy-levels of spiteful jealous. But. Man. Just reading this Avengers: Infinity War trailer description gets me fucking torqued. So, I’m not sure this weak corporeal form will be able to hold during a viewing of the trailer, let alone the movie.
