Deadpool Comic-Con Trailer Review

Preface

Premise

Alright guys, so this weekend at Comic-Con a trailer for the X-Men spinoff Deadpool was shown and I was already excited for this movie before, but this trailer shows even more and makes you even more confident about the R-Rating.
(I’m not gonna do a post on the X-Men: Apocalypse trailer just cuz I didn’t watch any trailers before I saw Days of Future Past and I wound up loving that movie, so hopefully I get a repeat! And maybe I’m just superstitious…)
And yes, sorry but this is the best quality I could find. It’s pretty watchable though.

Suicide Squad Comic-Con Teaser Review

Preface

Premise

Okay, so as many of you all reading here know: I am a big fan of comic-book/superhero adapted movies and also as many of you know DC’s next property after Batman v. Superman is Suicide Squad.
For those who don’t know, the Suicide Squad is like a militarized team of supervillains and antiheros who run operations for the government in return for their freedom or the wiping clean of their record.
Then we got the first trailer for it at Comic-Con this weekend.

Preface

Project Almanac is one of those January movies that I wanted to see, but didn’t really get a chance to because I was catching up on all the Oscar movies.
But also, all I knew was that a trailer for this thing played before Anchorman 2 and it was getting PUSHED. BACK.
Which probably wasn’t a good sign…
Luckily this thing wasn’t a complete disaster though.
(It still wasn’t great.)

Premise

So Project Almanac is a found-footage sci-fi movie about this group of high school seniors who discover that their group leader’s dad was a scientist developing a time machine.
And the movie is very split in almost every area, which I’ll explain specifically in each section.

Preface

Okay, so last year when the 30 second teaser for this movie dropped at Comic-Con, I was like “yeah that looks pretty cool. Can’t wait to see more.”
Then earlier this year when the first teaser dropped, I was like “ehh, it looks really flashy and kinda sloppily thrown together… The next one had better impress be awesome.”
And folks, I can successfully tell you that this trailer not only met, not only surpassed, but obliterated my expectations.
I can now say I am 100% on board for Batman v. Superman.
THIS TRAILER WAS SO COOL!

Preface

So the other day I was looking through the list of movies I had seen thus far in 2015 and despite all the bad buzz a lot of movies had gotten, I realized that I haven’t seen many AWFUL movies.
I’ve seen four movies so far that I would qualify as my Top 4 of the Year, as of now, and I’ve seen MANY mediocre, average, and meh movies.
A LOT of those.
But now there are two movies (including this one) that I can successfully say are pretty terrible…
Not as bad as I thought though!
