Here’s The Trailer For Monstrous!


Christina Ricci, whose performance was one of the highlights of the first season of Yellowjackets, plays a menaced mother in the upcoming supernatural thriller, Monstrous.  The trailer below features Ricci’s character, her son, a rather ugly monster, and a really big car.  Apparently, this film was produced by the Chicken Soup for the Soul people, which somehow just makes it all the more creepy.

(Seriously, whenever I see that anyone owns one of those “Chicken Soup” books …. well, I wouldn’t say that I silently judge them but the temptation is always there.  Of course, you have to understand that I don’t really like soup to begin with.  Someone once told me to have some chicken soup because I had a cold and I was like, “Yeah, I don’t have anything to do with soup so you’re advice is worthless and I’m still sick!”)

Anyway, the Chicken Soup brand is all about inspiring true stories so I guess maybe the monster is going to have a good life lesson to impart.  We’ll find out on May 1st!

Here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Second Trailer for Lightyear!


Obviously, making an origin story about a character who isn’t supposed to actually exist raises all sorts of existential issues but …. well, look.  It’s PIXAR.  And The LEGO Movie worked, didn’t it?  And yes, I realize that the LEGO Movie was not a PIXAR film but I’m just saying that there’s all sorts of things that work in animation that wouldn’t necessarily work in live action.

Anyway, here’s the second trailer for Lightyear!

Here’s The Trailer for Last Seen Alive!


If Liam Neeson ever retires, Gerard Butler will be there to take his place as the best actor to regularly appear in violent and somewhat formulaic thrillers about men doing what they have to do to save the members of their family from being abducted and sold to the highest bidder.

Here’s the trailer for Last Seen Alive, which is due to be released next month.  In this one, Butler plays a man whose wife vanishes at a gas station.  It was originally titled Chase, which was a bit of a generic title.  I prefer Last Seen Alive.  Butler not only stars but he also produced.

Here’s The Teaser For Thor: Love and Thunder


Thor is one of the more remarkable success stories of the MCU.

He started out as the kind of boring super hero whose origin didn’t make much sense and who felt a bit out-of-place with the other Avengers.  (It was always funny to him how quickly they all were to accept the fact that Norse mythology was based on reality.)  But, thanks to director Taika Waititi and actor Chris Hemsworth, he’s been transformed into one of the most beloved characters in the MCU.  Waititi and Hemsworth both realized Thor was a ludicrous character and the best way to handle that would be to embrace the silliness of it all.

That was the approach that they took with Thor: Ragnarok and it appears to be the same approach they’ll be taking with Thor: Love and Thunder.  And, of course, Chris Pratt and the Guardians of the Galaxy are the perfect people to help them do that!

Here’s the teaser for Thor: Love and Thunder!

Here’s The Trailer For Moon Knight


Here’s the trailer Moon Knight!

Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke both should have an Oscar by now.  Well, they won’t win any for Moon Knight because it’s a miniseries.  They might get some Emmy love but eventually, everyone wins an Emmy so it’s not as big of a deal.  I mean, I’ve got an Emmy somewhere around here.  It arrived in the mail and I was like, “Cool, I guess I won something.”

My point is, Oscar Issac and Ethan Hawke should both be in a lot of stuff.  Anyway, here’s the trailer:

Here’s The Trailer For The Offer


To be honest, I can’t really say that we need a fictionalized miniseries about the making of The Godfather.  I say that as someone who is a Godfather fanatic and who eagerly reads anything that she can get her hands on that has to do with the production of the film.

I mean, the film’s production is an interesting story, don’t get me wrong.  But it’s a story that should be told by the people who were involved, people like Coppola and Pacino and Duvall and Caan and …. well, you get idea.  What it really doesn’t need is a fictionalized miniseries, one that will inevitably be more concerned with appealing to Twitter than with getting the facts right.

That said, my concerns aside, it looks we’re going to get at least one miniseries about the making of the film.  (Maybe two.)  Here’s the trailer for Paramount Plus’s The Offer.  For the record, this is the miniseries in which Miles Teller replaced Armie Hammer in the role of the film’s producer, Al Ruddy.  Hopefully, this will be good because a lot of people are going to assume it’s telling the genuine story of how The Godfather came to the screen, regardless of how many liberties it takes with the truth.
