What Alejandro Jodorowsky Thinks of the New Dune Trailer

“They tried and failed? All of them?” So goes the question Paul Atreides asks the Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam early in Frank Herbert’s Dune. While the powerful Bene Gesserit answers far more harshly than is required for a discussion about the making of movies, Paul’s brief meditation on the failure of those who came before him is still appropriate when thinking about the many attempts to bring the legendary sci-fi novel to the screen. One of those attempts came from Alejandro Jodorowsky, who spent years working on a Dune movie that never came to be, and might just be…

Werewolf Prowls in The Wolf of Snow Hollow Trailer

Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf? We’re about to find out in the new horror movie, The Wolf of Snow Hollow. As the latest feature from SXSW darling Jim Cummings, the horror movie is set in a small town where diminished expectations comes face to face with growing clumps of fur, not to mention a body count. The first trailer for The Wolf of Snow Hollow is certainly promising enough. Cut around the final performance of the late great Robert Forster, the teaser suggests this is not your quietest of sleepy towns. Take Cummings’ lead performance as Sheriff John…

Synchronic Trailer Showcases New Mind-Bending Movie From The Endless Duo

Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson’s most mainstream endeavor yet is set to be released next month. Synchronic, a new feature from the directors of Spring, Resolution and The Endless, stars former Mr. Grey, Jamie Dornan and Marvel’s new Captain America, Anthony Mackie. It promises to be just as fascinating as Moorhead and Benson’s previous flicks, if this first trailer is anything to go by, however, when the film originally screened at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival, critics were conflicted over comparisons to the pair’s previously stellar efforts. Here’s an official wee synopsis for you: “When New Orleans paramedics and…

Resident Evil Village Trailer Leaves Us With More Questions Than Answers

Resident Evil fans rejoice, as the recent PlayStation 5 showcase brought us an incredible new trailer for Resident Evil Village. While this shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise to series fans, the latest Resident Evil trailer is, to put a word to it, cryptic. It still doesn’t feature anything that we’re convinced counts as gameplay, and most of it actually focuses on an animated sequence that feels stylistically similar to the one that the Harry Potter films used to tell the tale of the Deathly Hallows. It also sends off big Don’t Starve energy so far as the…

Hogwarts Legacy Trailer Showcases an Ambitious Harry Potter RPG

We’ve heard rumors of a major new Harry Potter game in development for quite some time now, but the recent PlayStation showcase finally brought us an official trailer for Hogwarts Legacy. Much of what we previously suspected/heard about this project remains true of the final version. It is indeed a Harry Potter RPG that allows you to roam an open-world version of Hogwarts as a custom created character. That also means that you’ll be able to attend classes, interact with classmates, and generally do all of the things that we associate with the school of magic. What we didn’t know…

Demon’s Souls Release Date Revealed Along With PS5 Gameplay Trailer

We had a feeling that the Demon’s Souls remake would end up being one of the PS5’s best-looking early games, but the game’s latest trailer showcases just how gorgeous the project is and how much of the original experience has been rebuilt in order to take advantage of next-gen technology. “It was essential to us that we recreated Demon’s Souls in such a way that longtime fans are transported back to the Boletaria they love,” says Gavin Moore, Creative Director, SIE Worldwide Studios External Development, via the PlayStation blog. “It’s the Boletaria that has been growing and maturing in their imaginations for…

The Mandalorian Season 2 Trailer Breakdown and Analysis

The Mandalorian season 2 will send Mando and Baby Yoda to new places across the galaxy and to new dangers, as the bounty hunter with a heart of gold searches for the Child’s home. As teased in the season’s first trailer ahead of the Oct. 30 premiere, the journey won’t be easy. Mando (Pedro Pascal) won’t only have to contend with other bounty hunters trying to get the jump on him but also the brutal Empire, which is still on the hunt for the Child. And unbeknownst to our hero, the cruel Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito) survived his encounter with…

Moonbase 8 Release Date and Trailer for Showtime Astronaut Comedy

Moonbase 8 might, by virtue of its title, evoke imagery from unintentionally-funny early-post-Star Wars cash-in sci-fi from a bell-bottoms-brandishing yesteryear such as space base farce Saturn 3, but the comedy is assuredly intentional in the case of the Showtime series, which has just released its full trailer and a November release date. Intriguingly, Moonbase 8 is a six-episode half-hour astronaut comedy series that’s not even set in space, instead set in the final frontier of the Arizona desert, following the training exploits of bumbling NASA wannabees played by an auspicious comedy collective in John C. Reilly, Fred Armisen and Tim…

Love and Monsters Trailer Has Dylan O’Brien and Jessica Henwick in an Apocalyptic Romance

Love and Monsters, another would-be blockbuster that’s bypassing theaters for VOD, is arriving at your home quite soon, as evidenced by the release of the film’s first trailer. If there’s one thing that the often-visited genre of post-apocalyptic sci-fi cinema needs, it’s a wholesome romance between two young star-crossed lovers. Someone at Paramount realized this, and, this past October, quickly went into development on the project in question, tapping headliners in Dylan O’Brien (The Maze Runner) and Jessica Henwick (Iron Fist). Michael Matthews directed the picture, having come off his feature debut, the 2017 South African western-style thriller, Five Fingers…

Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 Trailer Remembers a World Divided

“The whole world is watching,” we hear chanted repeatedly in the first The Trial of the Chicago 7 trailer. After riots, which may have begun due to the excessive force by the police, overtook the 1968 Democratic National Convention, the federal government tried to charge a group of counterculture activists with conspiracy in one of the most infamous trials in American history. Written and directed by Aaron Sorkin (The Social Network, Molly’s Game), and featuring an all-star cast headlined by Sacha Baron Cohen, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Mark Rylance, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the Netflix film merits global consideration. Subscribers will have…

Taskmaster Series 10: First Trailer Pokes Fun at Channel 4 Dropping Show Years Ago

Like that guy who didn’t sign The Beatles and those publishers who turned down the first Harry Potter book, Channel 4 must have spent some portion of the last five years kicking itself. A little kick every time Taskmaster – the comedy show it developed but then let go – was nominated for a Bafta, another little kick every time the show set a ratings record for its home on digital channel Dave, and yet another kick every time the show received a giddy press write-up. Kick no more, Channel 4. Taskmaster is once again yours. After airing nine series…

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition Release Date and Trailer

Following weeks of speculation and years of anticipation, Ubisoft has confirmed that Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is returning to digital marketplaces as Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition. Discussions regarding this possible release kicked into overdrive a few weeks ago when the Scott Pilgrim vs. the World movie celebrated its 10th anniversary. Comments made via various social media accounts led many to believe that Ubisoft may be working on some kind of sequel, remake, or re-release of the 2010 video game adaptation of the Edgar Wright film. As you can see, we ended up with…

Immortals Fenyx Rising: Release Date and Trailer

During a recent digital event, Ubisoft showcased Immortals Fenyx Rising (the game previously known as Gods and Monsters). The name may be different, but Immortals Fenyx Rising doesn’t appear to have changed in many other major ways since we saw the Gods and Monsters trailer in 2019 (at least on the surface). Both featured colorful environments, an emphasis on mythological monsters, and more than a few reasons to suggest that Ubisoft was trying to make their own Breath of the Wild with a little Assassin’s Creed tossed in. Based on the footage and impressions that we’ve seen thus far, it…

Hubie Halloween Trailer Has Adam Sandler Back in Classic Comedic Form for Netflix

Hubie Halloween, the next Adam Sandler-headlined Netflix film in fulfillment of the actor’s lucrative deal with the streaming giant, is imminently arriving on the streaming platform. Interestingly, the comedy not only provides vicarious celebration for a 2020 Halloween season likely to be squelched by the health crisis, but also showcases Sandler revisiting his character well of lovable imbeciles with quixotic missions, as teased in the first trailer Appropriately set in the witchy hamlet of Salem, Massachusetts, the film centers on Sandler’s character, Hubie Dubois, a kind-but-eccentric local Halloween enthusiast, whose self-appointed role as a nebby safety patroller as earned him…

Dune Trailer Breakdown and Analysis

This article contains spoilers for the Dune book and probably the movie. You’ve been warned. The first trailer for Denis Villeneueve’s Dune is here and it certainly doesn’t disappoint. Showcasing a spectacular all star cast, truly epic visuals, and a surprising Pink Floyd song choice, this looks like a faithful adaptation of Frank Herbert’s legendary sci-fi novel. Well…half of it, at least. Y’see, Warner Bros. and Villeneueve have (wisely) opted to split the book into two films. So everything you see in this trailer is roughly from the first half (or less) of the story. If you haven’t seen it…

Dune Trailer Arrives: First Look at New 2020 Adaptation

One of the most eagerly-anticipated movies of 2020 — despite even the raging coronavirus pandemic — has been Dune, director Denis Villeneuve’s epic adaptation of the classic 1965 science fiction novel by Frank Herbert. We’ve seen images from Villeneuve’s film (the first of hopefully two that will encompass the entire book), but now the first official trailer has arrived and it seems almost certain that the director of Blade Runner 2049 and Arrival has created another cinematic sci-fi masterpiece. Watch it here! Herbert’s original book has influenced generations of sci-fi writers and untold numbers of films and TV shows —…

Rebecca Remake Trailer Promises Haunting Thriller

Every romance has a beginning, and every romance has an end… sometimes the story of each can be a killer. Such are the intimations at the heart of Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca, which is being handsomely brought back to the screen by director Ben Wheatley in a new Netflix production. With Lily James and Armie Hammer stepping into the roles of a newlywed couple with more secrets than kisses, and Kristin Scott Thomas taking on the role of the most menacing housekeeper eveer, there is a lot to take in with the film’s first trailer.
