Red-Band Trailer For James Gunn’s THE SUICIDE SQUAD

/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

The follow-up to 2016’s Suicide Squad will see some original members as well as introduce some new characters to the team including new fan favorite King Shark who is voiced by Sylvester Stallone.

The Suicide Squad stars Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Idris Elba as Bloodsport, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller and much more.

Welcome to hell — a.k.a. Belle Reve, the prison with the highest mortality rate in the US of A. Where the worst Super-Villains are kept and where they will do anything to get out—even join the super-secret, super-shady Task Force X. Today’s do-or-die assignment? Assemble a collection of cons, including Bloodsport, Peacemaker, Captain Boomerang, Ratcatcher 2, Savant, King Shark, Blackguard, Javelin and everyone’s favorite psycho, Harley Quinn. Then arm them heavily and drop them (literally) on the remote, enemy-infused island of Corto Maltese. Trekking through a jungle teeming with militant adversaries and guerrilla forces at every turn, the Squad is on a search-and- destroy mission with only Colonel Rick Flag on the ground to make them behave…and Amanda Waller’s government techies in their ears, tracking their every movement. And as always, one wrong move and they’re dead (whether at the hands of their opponents, a teammate, or Waller herself). If anyone’s laying down bets, the smart money is against them—all of them.

/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

Legendary Pictures has just dropped the action-packed first trailer for Godzilla Vs Kong.

The trailer shows the iconic meeting between the two Titans as they prepare to fight where one will stand. We’ve seen Godzilla and King Kong fight each other over the years in various films and its only right that we see these two go at it in this new age of updated technology and CGI which can only do this battle justice.

In a time when monsters walk the Earth, humanity’s fight for its future sets Godzilla and Kong on a collision course that will see the two most powerful forces of nature on the planet collide in a spectacular battle for the ages. As Monarch embarks on a perilous mission into uncharted terrain and unearths clues to the Titans’ origins, a human conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures, both good and bad, from the face of the earth forever.

Godzilla Vs Kong hits theaters and HBO Max on March 26, 2021 and stars Millie Bobby Brown, Brian Tyree Henry, Rebecca Hall, Julian Dennison, Danai Gurira, Jessica Henwick, Alexander Skarsgard, Shun Oguri, Eiza Gonzalez, Kyle Chandler, Demian Bichir, Van Marten, and Zhang Ziyi.

Warner Bros. Just shocked the whole entertainment industry by announcing that all of its 2021 movies will simultaneously release on HBO Max as well as in theaters on the same day.

We’re living in unprecedented times which call for creative solutions. We know new content is the lifeblood of theatrical exhibition, but we have to balance this with the reality that most theaters in the U.S. will likely operate at reduced capacity throughout 2021.

Ann Sarnoff, chair and CEO of WarnerMedia Studios and Networks Group

This move from the film giant could change the landscape of the way movies are viewed drastically. AMC theaters have already expressed dissatisfaction of the decision, stating that even though rules were changed for “Wonder Woman 1984” with the ongoing pandemic still going on, they see things changing for the better with the announcement of a vaccine coming to fruition.

Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Zack Snyder’s Justice League will premiere on HBO Max in 2021.

/ StaFFF / Leave a comment

It seems as though Hulu fan-favorite show Castle Rock has been canceled after two seasons.

Castle Rock is an anthology series focused on the fictional town in Maine of the same name. This series drew a lot of inspiration from Stephen King stories like Misery and Shawshank Redemption.

In April of this year, Castle Rock producer J.J. Abrams and HBO Max joined forces to develop a new project called Overlook. There is speculation that it would be similar to the Castle Rock aesthetic and The Shining universe will be the inspiration, centering around the Overlook Hotel. Looks like fans will have to jump to HBO Max to get their Stephen King horror fix for now.

Nine Days was well-received and considered the best film at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. This film tells a unique and complex story starring Winston Duke, Zazie Beetz, Benedict Wong, Tony Hale, Bill Skarsgård, David Rysdahl, and Arianna Ortiz.

[Will (Duke)] “spends his days in a remote outpost watching the live Point of View (POV) on TV’s of people going about their lives, until one subject perishes, leaving a vacancy for a new life on earth. Soon, several candidates — unborn souls — arrive at Will’s to undergo tests determining their fitness, facing oblivion when they are deemed unsuitable. But Will soon faces his own existential challenge in the form of free-spirited Emma (Beetz), a candidate who is not like the others, forcing him to turn within and reckon with his own tumultuous past. Fueled by unexpected power, he discovers a bold new path forward in his own life. Making his feature-film debut after a series of highly acclaimed and award-winning short films and music videos, Japanese Brazilian director Edson Oda delivers a heartfelt and meditative vision of human souls in limbo, aching to be born against unimaginable odds, yet hindered by forces beyond their will…”
