Weekly Trailers

Weekly Trailer Compendium



Kingsman: The Golden Circle PosterThough the third trailer for Kingsman: The Golden Circle is the shortest yet it actually offers a few more scenes from the movie so that's good and the cutting si so quick it keeps the action quick and your attention piqued.  Really looking forward to this film.














Blade Runner 2049 PosterThe new Blade Runner 2049 trailer is the best of the set so far.  We are given more insight into the storyline and world of the Blade Runner, which truly looks like an updated take on the original.  This draws me to the movie more as it looks like they the entire crew are paying attention to the detail.  I loved Gotham in the Tim Burton Batman movies, though when a new director took over Gotham became just another city.  Though it doesn't detract from the acting it can pull the audience's attention out of the movie and the universe it's created.  We are also given a sense of what to expect with the action, special effects and story, all of which look to be superb and I find myself, once again drawn to a Ridley Scott sequel.








Suburbicon PosterWith Suburbicon it looks like the Coen Brothers are doing their take on the Noir genre.  Style screams in nearly every clip of the trailer.  I love the Coen Brothers and this may just be their best yet.  I really love the way that they manipulate "real" comedy to add subtle humour to what could easily be a bleak film.  A lot of these moments, or similar, have happened to us at one time or another and because of that, we can relate to the character and the story.  That's three for three out of films I'm looking forward to watching.











Wind River PosterThere's a lot of pondering wondering, snow, fighting, and gunplay in the trailer for Wind River.  The one thing that isn't in the trailer though is a clue as to what the movie is about - at least it stars Jeremy Remmer and Elizabeth Olsen.  I do like mystery thrillers so this will probably get watched at some point down the line.













Little Evil PosterWho is top of the dick chain?  The Son Of Satan no less.  This Halloween the comedy movie to watch could just be Little Evil.  What would you do if, after falling in love and marrying your beloved, you find out that her son from another relationship could very well be The Son Of Satan?  Though the trailer doesn't give much away it has caught my attention and my interest as it looks like it could be pretty good... we'll just have to wait and see...












Last Flag Flying PosterIt may be my increasing age but I find I am inextricably drawn to Last Flag Flying which tells the story of three ageing army buddies on a mission to get to one of their friends' son's funeral.  Through the road-trip, as always, we get a more in-depth look at the men and their lives.  This looks like a brilliant drama full of melancholy humour and touching heartfelt and heartwarming moments.  Last Flag Flying has instantly landed on my to watch list as it appears well written and filmed and superbly acted by a great cast with Laurence Fishburne, Steve Carell, and Bryan Cranston.










The LEGO Ninjago Movie PosterI really like the idea of the Ninja Instructions on how to be a Ninja now it's back to school time.  This little skit does a good job of giving a different take on the Trailer genre while still giving the viewer clips from the movie so they can see what to expect.  This actually has me verging on the side of watching the film, though I hated The Lego Movie... though with the Jackie Chan skit last time I'm also wondering if the film is good enough to have a proper trailer, or have they already clipped all the good stuff together?
