This Week's Trailers


This was a weird week for trailers. I dunno about you but I never noticed much, Star Wars took up too much of my attention. So I dropped the ball! This weeks had some great trailers, so this post won't include Star Wars as I have already covered it in another post, which if you haven't read you can check it out at the end of this post!

Joy

 You can't always get what you want! This trailer looks like I would really enjoy this movie, which is directed by David O.Russell. The cast look great with Jennifer Lawrence taking on the role of Joy, a housewife with big dreams. She states that, "The world doesn't owe you a thing," and is hell bent on making it. Robert De Niro plays Joys father, Rudy, who is divorced and very brass, stating at a point that it was his "fault that I gave her the confidence to think that she was more than just an unemployed housewife." Bradley Cooper is also in this movie playing what looks like a television producer which is pretty interesting.

 I think that this movie looks and sounds great. The trailer just screams Oscar's but then again most movies do at this time of the year. Even Star Wars. I'm excited to go see it so check it out.

Jessica Jones 

Now this trailer looks dark as hell. Jessica Jones (Kristen Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and Kilgrave i.e. The Purple Man (David Tennant), all appear in the trailer. We actually get to hear David Tennant as Kilgrave which is great as we have only had a whisper or so before now.

I am still really excited for this series, I knew it was dark and Netflix can do dark as we've seen before with Daredevil. I also am really excited to see the story of a pretty indestructible superhero, which is why I think David Tennant's character is going to work well beside Jessica Jones as her mind is not indestructible.

Jane Got A Gun

Now the first time I watched this trailer I couldn't stop singing Aerosmith, I know it's Janie, but they could have used that song to much effect in this trailer and they didn't. But that's OK. So Jane (Natalie Portman) is wanted by some guy named Colum played by Ewan McGregor, who I didn't recognise until maybe his third appearance. Her husband has what looks like a bounty on his head and she is defending him. So she goes and tries to convince a hired gun named Dan (Joel Edgerton) to help her. They have a romantic history so this could play out any way.

I am all for kick ass women and this looks like it could be one of those roles but I need to see more to decide if I want to see it or not. We'll see, it just didn't draw me as much as Joy did, but I'll look out for it.

Daddy's Home

So yeah, this trailer looks pretty funny. It tells the story of the story of Brad (Will Ferrell), a step father to two kids. There dad Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) comes to town for what looks like Christmas, and then a sort of dad off happens between the two.

Now I love stupid movies, there my shame movies, but I love them so much. The Other Guys was brilliant to me because it was so stupid, but these two had brilliant chemistry with each other. Now I love a smart comedy that makes you think, I probably know more about American politics than some Americans due to my love for these sorts of shows. But sometimes its just good to sit back, relax and switch off. This will be a great movie to switch off too.

The X-files


My tinfoil hat is officially on guys! Is this the Matrix? I kid, it's nearly time to go back to the X-files, and I'm excited. So in this little teaser trailer we get to see Mulder (David Duchovny) and Scully (Gillian Anderson) in action as everybody's favourite conspiracy fighting duo. Mulder asks Skinner (Mitch Pileggi), "What if everything was a lie?" during a ton of little clips.

I like it, doesn't give too much away while still managing to be exciting. I can't wait for 2016!

So that's all the trailers I we got this week, did I miss any of your favourites then mention in the comments below. I don't usually talk about new trailers on movies or TV that I have already spoken about before. Unless I am really excited about them. So if you'd like my opinion on any please comment below.

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...

I dropped the ball!

                                                    ........ Image courtesy of paradigmalibu These last few months I've felt as if I have dropped the proverbial ball, my mind has been witness to a stand off between Mental health disorders and things from my past I'd rather not constantly have to relive. It's buried itself into my soul while operating my mindless drone of a body, I've relived every conversation I ever had; thought of Friends long gone as I struggle to open up about my disability. I don't even like calling it that as it feels disrespectful to people like my parents; who's struggle and sheer joy of receiving two disabled free babies has been with me my entire life. But I am not OK - I feel like I have to admit that to the world. A miscarriage has taken me back mentally to a place I've not been for a very long time, and I'm petrified t...
