The Jungle Book Official Trailer


So the new jungle book trailer launched yesterday and it looks amazing. We hear the familiar Scarlett Johansson in the voice over, giving a chilling yet creepy speech as the snake Kaa. She asks Mowgli (Neel Sethi), "Are you alone out here?" and tells him to, "Trust in me!" I was highly anticipating her breaking out into song, which would have been great.

We see our familiar panther Bagheera (Ben Kingsley) first meeting Mowgli, a familiar lion Shere Khan (Idris Elba) and a clip of Mowgli riding on the back of Baloo (Bill Murray). When Kaa is revealed she is huge in comparison to Mowgli, I really like that they changed Kaa to a female as there was a complete lack of female characters in the original. Well besides the singing little girl with the big eyes, and Verna Felton who voiced an Elephant.

My childhood was flashing before my eyes as I saw a clip of King Louie (Christopher Walken) and his minion of monkeys, all that was missing was Baloo with a pair of coconuts. Lastly we are treated to Baloo, swimming backwards as Mowgli sits on him and whistling the bear necessities.

It looks visually breath taking, and really interesting. Definitely one for the kids and the adults who loved the original (me included). I really hope there will be those great catchy songs in it. I'm also hoping for my favorite group of characters from the original, the Vultures. I wonder if they'll still look like the Beatles.

Set for release in 2016 check out the trailer below. "Ooo I wanna be like you..."

Game of Thrones - The Hall of Faces Trailer and Theories!

I've been watching out for this trailer for the past week and was pretty excited to see some footage from the new season. Instead we got to see the faces of characters, some of whom are long lost, and others who have yet to leave us. SPOILER WARNING for those who haven't caught up with season five. The trailer takes place in the Hall of Faces, which is inside the House of Black and White in Braavos. The hall looks great, creepy but great. We can hear some whispers which are too quiet for me to make out. Then Ned's (Sean Bean) face appears on screen, we then hear him say a line from the show's first ever episode called Winter is Coming.    "The Man who passes the sentence should swing the sword." The screen then fades to black and we then see a clip of some more rows of heads. We then hear even more whispers and which I think sounds like some drops of waters. We then hear the voice of Robb Stark (Richard Madden) who we hear give a quote from seaso...

Lion Rampant

So for those of you who haven't heard about this project it was leaked during the Sony hack. This as a potential sequel to Braveheart called Lion Rampant, after the flag I have shown above. Really it should be called Braveheart as Robert the Bruce was called the Brave Heart and his heart was taken into battle after his death. Depicting Robert the Bruce's story and the Battle of Bannockburn (24th June 1314) in Scotlands first war for independance where King Edward II was beaten in battle by a small force lead by Robert the Bruce. Robert the Bruce in Braveheart was shown as a traitor and I am hoping that this upcoming movie would mean that he will hopefully get the makeover he so rightly deserves. Although he did pay homage to Edward I, The Bruce really secretly supported Wallace (later publicly supporting him) and he did not betray Wallace, that was Sir John Menteith. This could easily turn into a what's wrong with Braveheart post so I will state that they did get the...

Daredevil Recap

Hopefully by now most of you will be sitting down to watch the second season of Daredevil, I on the other hand have to wait on a certain person getting home from his job before I can start watching. So in order to fill my time and maybe fill in some of the blanks you have, I decided to do a recap of season one. A season one SPOILER WARNING is in affect so if you haven't watched it then please do go back and take a look at it. In April 10th 2015 we got something spectacular, most of us didn't want to see Daredevil on any screen thanks to that movie we got back in 2003. I myself was talked into watching the series but I went into it on a clean slate and had zero expectations. Boy was I wrong. Episode 1: Into the Ring In a flashback we see a young Matt Murdock (Skylar Gaertner) saving a man from a car accident, it all goes south though when a batch of chemicals spill and they blind him. In present day Murdock (Charlie Cox), wears a black mask and is fighting four guy...
