    Stranger Things

    Yes they've gone directly to The Goonies well and cast Sean Astin for the second season.

    The Matrix reboot/remake

    Hollywood's sequel fetish has been around a long time and unifying IP's are a natural marriage for it. Part of the reason Lucas sold off Lucasfilm to begin with was he couldn't get any of the studios interested in striking a distribution deal (on favorable enough terms anyway) for anything that...

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Looks like they're going to run a new trailer for Black Panther before Thor.

    The flood gates are swinging open. It has begun.

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    I liked those scenes a lot to. It was semi unnerving just as a spectator.

    Akira Project (live action trailer)

    Waititi talking about having been approached to direct Akira. He's got the right idea.

    I thought the hooker was human as well. When she first met him and he seemed disinterested in her advances she guessed "You don't like real girls".

    It's the old one I assume. He has the old one in all of the images they've released with him using a lightsaber.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Yeah that's close. I mean it's a sex joke and a pretty high brow one at that. High enough to fly over plenty of heads, even many older ones. And I forgot about Drax in Vol 2. That was fairly obvious.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I know prosthetics and masks used in movies have come a long way in 40 years but I don't recall Chewie's face being that expressive even as recently as TFA. It just looks like it's had some amount of enhancement in that shot (or maybe even dehancement to make the obviously CGI'd porg not stand...

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Maybe my memory is failing me here but is that the first jerking off reference in an MCU movie?

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    There is a fan theory out there of that being how it all went down. The problem is it directly contradicts what Han told Rey and Finn in TFA, that it was one of his pupils who did it. But then we get into the whole issue of does everyone else know the full truth of what really happened. But as...

    Yeah they're all on in the misdirection this time around. Gonna spoil tag even though if you go to the theater very often you're bound to see it anyway.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I'm pretty sure Johnson didn't put that trailer together and that Lucasfilm outsourced it to the same company that did the TFA and R1 trailers. So for all we know it was made up mostly of footage off of the cutting room floor that will never show up on screen.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Many of the reviews I have seen have said the movie has Taika Waititi written all over it, particularly in it's humor, in much the same way that GoTG had Gunn all over it. If you're not familiar with his previous work, I'd check out What We Do In The Shadows to get a sense of if it will be your...

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Others have already answered this for you and I'll just echo what they have said. A studio that thinks it has a stinker on it's hands will often try to hold the review embargo as late as until the day of release (though they usually get called out on it in the media so it has to be really bad...

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    I don't take RLM seriously enough to not take anyone else serious on their account. To each their own on that front though. Regardless, there is one thing said in that vid that speaks all for itself; Marvel is dropping the review embargo on Oct 19th. That's 2 weeks before the release. That...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I would say it depends on where Rey would end up in that scenario. Her going dark and becoming the new big bad (or one half of it) for Luke to dispatch? Nope, they'd never do that. Her going bad and eventually being redeemed, walking a shortened version of Vader/Anakin's path (but not dying...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Yeah as a misdirect that one is aimed at the more casual movie goer who doesn't really follow any of the news attached to the production. For those who do it's intended to make you wonder does he follow through on that and actually try.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Did it look to anyone else like they CGI'd Chewbacca's face when he grrrr'd in the cockpit of the Falcon?

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    That seemed a bit spoilery. Have to wonder how much of it is misdirect though.

    Justice League (2017)

    I think I see why every other DC movie currently in early pre-pro is being talked about as not being part of the current DC cinematic universe. It's not long for this world.

    Probably. Roy did blind Tyrell before killing him.

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    Splicing in some F&F footage to replace all of the scenes of Gosling flying his car around would probably be a little more seamless and just as effective. Maybe edit in Vin Diesel shouting sequences ending in "family" at him during the baseline tests.

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    Pinning your hopes on China for a movie like this given the kind of shit they typically turn out strong for. Yeah there's a few studio execs sweating right now.

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    This is why everyone should be crossing their fingers that this movie doesn't take it on the chin financially. It really looks like the studio gave Villeneuve a big pile o' cash and just let him make the movie he wanted to make. Because this certainly isn't the kind of movie you'd typically...
