Movie teasers, trailers and titillating talk!!

Seeing Don Johnson involved in a Jeremy Saulnier movie has me more excited than it should. I love Murder Party and Green Room, and Johnson was great in the underrated (under-seen) Cold in July.

OMG This cast. I'm already excited to see Tom Cruise doing prestige dramas again, and now there's a chance him and John Goodman could be screaming at each other in a scene. Not to mention freaking one of the greatest actresses around today Sandra Hueller. Riz Ahmed is also fantastic. And two of the best modern character actors in Jesse Plemons and Michael Stuhlbarg. And Sophie Wilde was great in Talk To Me.

I'm pumped.
 
The cult movie theater is showing the Channing Tatum movie that looks like Dennis Reynolds Presents The Great Gatsby. They're putting out trigger warnings. I figure that's either a great sign or a pathetic one.
 
Yeah I heard that this movie is way more disturbing and messed up than the trailers look. So, my interested is a little more piqued.
 
I looked on Google and it's a 7 episode tv series. I forget Apple exists, so this will be in the big box of stuff I'll say I will watch and then forget about.
 
Don't know where else to put this, but Gladiator 2 is getting really good reviews.The reviews basically say that it's more of a big spectacle action movie than a historically accurate epic. Ridley can do the spectacles really well, so I'm hyped now.

The presales are doing great too. Seems like it is going to open to 80 million plus. Maybe 100 million if the word of mouth catches on. I see people being surprised at how big it's going to open, but Gen X and Millennial men love the first Gladiator movie so much. And, this also has Denzel who is still a legit box office draw.
 

James Gunn has some stored up good will with me and this trailer looks decent enough. I'm not a big Superman guy but THEY GOT THE DOG! It seems to hit the right notes for a Superman movie and it doesn't look DARK AND BROODING so I'm all ready giving it points there.
 
I'm not a Superman guy either but it looks good to me. This movie is gonna make dump trucks full of money.
 
I laughed out loud at the Krypto the Superdog reveal. Love it.

Not sure how I feel about all of the D-list characters in the trailer (Sorry, Guy!). I haven't seen a DC movie since Gunn's Suicide Squad, but I'll likely watch this.
 
It doesn't look bad but after Superman Returns and Man of Steel, it's really hard for my generation to get excited for a Superman movie.
 
The Man of Steel trailer itself is an all-time great. So you can be tricked.

I always put faith in Gunn when it comes to this stuff. So I’m pretty excited. The Snyder weirdos on twitter are something else though.
