Ant-Man Trailer Review

Preface

Sorry for my 9-day gap there guys, my laptop has been in the shop and well, there hasn’t been a TON to talk about.
- I’ll do a post in the next couple of day about some superhero directing news, but there isn’t much else to review at the time.
- Better Call Saul Review will be out soon, and I’m watching Daredevil, so look forward to that.
But this Ant-Man trailer was really cool, and proves why I think it’s gonna be a hit.

The Future of X-Men: Hugh Jackman Announces Departure for 2017

Preface

Now I’m sad…
(This story started off just as Jackman’s departure, but evolved into so much more…)

Premise

I actually heard about this story before a lot of the major news outlets began covering it.
- I Like Hugh Jackman’s Facebook page (because he’s my favorite actor in Hollywood currently, and ya know, I enjoy seeing pictures of him with his dog) and I saw a post of his about 5 minutes after it came out.
Today, Hugh Jackman posted (on both his Facebook and Instagram) a picture of his hands, one with the Wolverine claws, and the caption: ..ONE LAST TIME.
And I wanted to talk about it, because I’m sad!
(Here’s the picture he posted.)

Preface

Yeah I know a new Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation trailer just came out.
- It looks good, it looks fun. Yeah.
But this Spectre trailer has more stuff to speculate on, and a lot of cool things that I wanted to talk about.

Preface

I actually just finished reading Gillian Flynn’s novel Dark Places about a week ago.
And now the poster just dropped, the trailer just dropped, and I’m excited.
- Because it looks good.
(And yeah I didn’t see the new Age of Ultron trailer because I don’t want the whole movie to be spoiler for me by the time I see it. So we got Dark Places trailer, and maybe a Mr. Holmes Trailer review also…)

Premise

Dark Places is about a woman named Libby Day (played by Charlize Theron) who survives the murder of her three family members as a young girl, and then testifies against her brother who she claims committed the crime.
But 30 years later, some crime experts that research the case bring her onto their team and try to prove that her brother may be innocent after all…
And don’t worry, no spoilers ahead (cuz like I said, I’ve read the book).

Preface

You guys know how much I love the Oscars.
- The answer, if you’re new to this site, is a lot.
Even though we get mad every year about all the snubs (Lego Movie, Jake Gyllenhaal, Gone Girl), it’s the one day of the year where everyone really cares about and loves movies as much as I do all the time.
- Makes the world a better place…
So here are my final predictions for who will win at the big ceremony tonight!
- I’ve talked about a lot of these in depth before (I’ll link my reviews for each) so I won’t waste wordcounts with a huge amount of explanation.
  - I’ll keep it simple with the nominees list, followed by Will Win and Could Win.
    - Though the whole Could Win thing feels like a bit of a cheat at times, I do feel more confident with all my picks if I have it in ‘second place’.
  - Alrighty, let’s start it up!
