But he might finally have another hit film, with the upcoming release of Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation. Judging from the trailer below … well, it looks like another Mission Impossible film, doesn’t it? But, at least Jeremy Renner’s in it and we get to see that cute robot from the Bad Robot logo so I’m happy.
Okay, probably not.
But still, the former governor of California has been getting some unexpectedly good buzz for his performance in the upcoming film zombie film Maggie. In a role that reportedly emphasizes honest emotion over crowd-pleasing action, Schwarzenegger plays a small-town farmer whose daughter (Abigail Breslin) has been infected with a zombie virus. The trailer, which was released today, seems to hint that Maggie is going to be a bit more thoughtful than your average Arnold Schwarzenegger zombie film.
Maggie is scheduled to be released on May 8th and, hopefully, it won’t be too overshadowed by the 2nd weekend of Avengers: Age of Ultron.
I loved the first Insidious and I enjoyed the second one. I’m still not totally convinced that we need a third one but we’re getting one anyways. Apparently, it’s a prequel so we’ll get a lot of Conjuring-style period detail along with all of the usual scares.
Is it May 1st yet?
With all the rocking and rolling and metal headbanging the site has been on of late it’s just appropriate that we take a quick intermission with a different sort of rocking and rolling.

Today we saw the release of the official trailer for Netflix and Marvel Television’s first of five series based on characters from the Marvel Universe. Daredevil will be the first out of the gate and it looks to darken things a bit in the Marvel Cinematic Universe by bringing to the small screen one of it’s street-level heroes.

Here’s the latest trailer for Tomorrowland. I still can’t decide whether I’m excited about seeing this film or not. The trailer has hints of brilliance but there’s a part of me that’s worried that this is going to turn out to be yet another summer film that’s more concerned with winning the Oscar for visual effects than in telling a particularly memorable story.
This latest trailer feels like it could be for a big budget version of Atlas Shrugged. Perhaps George Clooney is John Galt?
The third and, hopefully, final trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron was unlocked today after a Twitter event which had millions of people tweeting the hashtag #AvengersAssemble. One has to give it up to the Marvel marketing machine. They know how to get the public clamoring for more when it comes to their films.
All that could be said has been said about this film. Just sit back and enjoy (or critique) one of the most highly-anticipated films of the year.

So, this looks like it might be good. Ex Machina is the directorial debut of novelist and screenwriter Alex Garland. Judging from the trailer, it appears to be another film about humans getting too close to a machine. If nothing else, it has a great cast: Domhnall Gleeson, Oscar Isaac, and Alicia Vikander.
The film will be released on April 10th.
