Releases for 2016 and beyond.

[Oaf]

Seems to be a year of people playing multiple roles in a film, first with James McAvoy in Split and now the mighty Cate Blanchett performing 13 roles in Manifesto.

Edit: She did this over a year ago for an art installation in Berlin with all 13 characters on screens at once. Be interesting to see how they transform this into a cohesive film.

Don't they know that this sort of shit already reached its peak with Eddie Murphy in the Nutty Professor? It ain't gonna get better than that, the rest are just shit imitations.

James Gunn nailing the music again it seems

 

[Megaclyde]

Really not a fan of this baby Groot stuff tbh. Reminds me too much of minions, doing annoying 'cute' stuff. Hopefully grows by the end of the film.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

They'll probably make as much on baby Groot merchandise as they will on the box office. Not surprised they're milking it in the trailers.

 

[hodge]

Imagine Groot will be back to full size for an appearance in infinity war

Thor stole Hulks story

Planet Hulk is probably my favourite Marvel comic ever, so I'm kind of annoyed to see it getting tinkered with like this. But then again, Marvel don't tend to do direct adaptations, plus I've always felt as if a proper Planet Hulk would be a hard sell to a wider audience... so I'll take this.

And yeah, the trailer looked fun as well, so it's got that going for it too.

 

[hodge]

Marvel may have wanted to do a Planet Hulk story but given Universal still have control over Hulk solo films Marvel had to incorporate it in a different film.

 

[HarvSFC]

Solo Hulk films don't do as well as the others either, unfortunately.

 

[hodge]

If it were solely in Marvel's hands I'd have faith after his appearances in the avengers movies. They could have left him out of Thor and after the infinity war stuff done planet hulk and world war hulk.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

Technically Disney can still make a Hulk movie if they want to, the problem is that Universal still has the distribution rights, and Disney doesn't want to make a movie that they can't distribute themselves. The rights should revert at some point though.

 

[Oaf]

This is genuinely the first real case of me reading and loving a book and then seeing it adapted to film, and... I'm uneasy. It's just like... the real world was slowly brought into it in the book and I loved it. Hey Jude popping up and other things, slowly hinting at a bigger picture before going all out. Yet this just goes for it straight from the first damn trailer, let alone the first film!

Argh, this being said, I'm still finding that I can't wait for it. Really am willing to give it a chance and to approach it with an open mind, taking it as it is rather than how I expect it to be compared to the book.

My six year old is spectacularly excited about this.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

silky is a bronie confirmed

 

[silkyman]

There are genuinely far worse kids tv shows out there. He Man never used to be full of film references for the parents...

Detailed synopsis for the upcoming Predator movie

Spoiler

Special Forces operative Quinn McKenna (Boyd Holbrook) is sent to Cuba to assassinate a drug lord, where he finds a wounded Predator in the wreckage of a crashed spaceship and retrieves an alien device, which he mails to his estranged son Rory McKenna (Jacob Tremblay), an autistic savant who lives with Quinn's ex-wife Tessa (Yvonne Strahovski).

Quinn and the Predator are captured by CIA agent John Traeger (Sterling K. Brown), the leader of a secret department investigating alien activity on Earth, particularly the Predator's previous appearances in South America and Los Angeles, and Quinn is locked up alongside a group of of deranged ex-soldiers (Trevante Rhodes, Keegan Michael-Key, Thomas Jane, Alfie Allen and Augusto Aguilera). The wounded Predator awakens and escapes to retrieve the device. Quinn and the ex-soldiers decide to hunt him down, aided by Traeger and his assistant, xenobiologist Casey Beckett (Olivia Munn).

Rory deciphers the Predators' language and finds out that their homeworld is dying and they are planning to conquer Earth. The device is the beacon that'll lead their forces to Earth. The Predator becomes determined to capture Rory and harvest his DNA to enhance the Predators' intelligence. To stop him, Quinn and his men are forced to join forces with a group of renegade Predators who have been peacefully living on Earth for years under the government's supervision, leading to a vicious battle of the fate of the world in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

Fucking hell

 

[SALTIRE]

Karl Pilkington is back!

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

The only thing that has ever made me question whether Karl is real is the complete absence of any pictures of Suzanne. That shouldn't be possible.

Can't wait, that sounds amazing.

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

You know what, this actually looks fucking great.

 

[Darlo On Tour]

This movie will be awesome at the box office! Godzilla: King of the Monsters certainly has a decent cast to back this trailer up.

Millie Bobby Brown (Stranger Things)
Vera Farmiga (Bates Motel)
Sally Hawkins (The Shape of Water)
Ken Watanabe (Godzilla)
Kyle Chandler (Bloodline)
Charles Dance (Game of Thrones & Underworld)
Bradley Whitford (The Handmaid's Tale & Get Out)

Godzilla vs Kong is scheduled to follow up in 2020.

The only thing that has ever made me question whether Karl is real is the complete absence of any pictures of Suzanne. That shouldn't be possible.

Exactly my thoughts as well about Karl Pilkington! I wouldn't care he never stops waffling on about the elusive Suzanne Whiston, suppose to have been together roughly 25-years.

As for pictures i don't think I've ever come across one?

 

[silkyman]

You know what, this actually looks fucking great.

Just came on to post the same trailer and say the same thing.

Other trailers that came out yesterday, Aquaman looks bonkers and Shazam looks fun. I think DC might have got their act together.

 

[silkyman]

Genuinely pleased that Teen Titans Go: To The Movies is getting good reviews.
