‘King Arthur’ Trailer: Guy Ritchie and The Round Table
Guy Ritchie rules. The Man From UNCLE was hilarious, stylish, fun. That apparently only Pluto and I saw, but fuck if we weren’t dying laughing in our seats. I’m in for this movie, I’m in for any movie Ritchie makes. And I’m dragging Eddie along with me.
Japan has official ‘Evangelion’ Dumbbells; the Fourth Impact is you reppin’ out
Yeah man! Fourth impact! Reppin’ out! Get as swole as Shinji is a miserable, unwatchable twat! Evangelion dumbbells!
Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi flick ‘Story of Your Life’ gets new title and a release date
I had no fucking idea that Denis Villeneuve had another movie dropping before Blade Runner 2. This is bonus! One of my favorite current directors bringing science-fiction heat before he brings science-fiction heat. Villeneuve’s movie has gotten itself a new title, and an official release date.
Donald Glover joining ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ cast
Donald Glover for Spider-Man! Oh, he’s already cast? Donald Glover for (a role in) Spider-Man!
Jennifer Lawrence starring in Adam McKay’s movie based on dumpster fire start-up Theranos
I know a lot about Elizabeth Holmes and her bullshit start-up, Theranos. This is because my wife puts on biolifemedicalsomething conferences, and Theranos was simultaneously a rising star and a source of concern for members of that community, and her. Basically Holmes was a scam artist who flouted FDA something suches, and most importantly: refused to speak at a keynote for my wife. Then Holmes’ career fell apart. Is this a coincidence? Is my wife at best, a realitymancer, and at worse, the Devil? I’m not sure. Maybe the new Lawrence/McKay movie will suss this out.
‘Destiny: Rise of Iron’ Reveal Trailer: Dropping September 20 on PS4 and XB1
Bungie has dropped official details for the previously leaked but unofficially announced expansion for Destiny, Rise of Iron.
Mark Millar and Greg Capullo’s creator-owned ‘Reborn’ dropping in October
Man, it’s been a hot minute since I covered something Mark Millar-related. That’s probably because I think he’s a hateful, derivative hack. So why am I covering this news, about a new title of his? I love me some Greg Capullo. Do the two entities cancel themselves out, offering me a chance to pick-up Reborn? I’m, I’m not sure yet.
‘Flash’ movie lands new director in Rick Famuyiwa (‘Dope’)
Rick Famuyiwa’s movie Dope was fun. Not excellent. But fun. Well made. Well shot. Lots of energy. Good performances. DC snagging him to helm Flash makes sense, then, since they need some fun. Some levity. Well done, DC.
