So the Willy Wonka prequel is going forward with Timothee Chalamet and I can not even imagine what that origin story is going to look like.
I mean that was a movie that scared the crap out of me when I was a horror and chocolate loving kid and I found Johnny Depp just as unsettling so I don’t know how I feel about this.
There are a lot of hot takes out there about the new Cruella which is basically an AU story for that matter. Some valid (it didn’t need to be Cruella) and some not so much. Did people really want to see her kill dogs?
This was almost a rant about movies and people’s responses but instead I’m going to keep it simple like her hair. Black and white. Good and bad. And all opinions of course welcome.
But also Spoilers
Gunpowder Milkshake is another of my most anticipated films and we got a trailer for that today to! And talk about a stacked cast 🙂
Also since the trailers are delivering this week let me just put out there but how about The Witcher Season 2 trailer? Well a girl can dream.
After Baby Driver I never thought I’d be excited for an Edgar Wright film again. But it has Anya and Matt Smith and time travel and maybe ghosts…
Well we got a teaser trailer for Marvel’s Eternals movie and while I’m not as enthused about this story I am interested that this may be Marvel’s biggest gamble.
At least in terms of character origin stories.
Plus I want to be enthused I really do.
As a big Jon Bernthal fan, whose used to his blink and miss it roles in a lot of films, I’m happy to report he’s got a nice meaty part in this one.
Why in these movies is there always a character who picks the worst possible moment to confront the “untrustworthy” possibly bad character (usually quietly with no one else around) and threatens to expose them the minute they get through this?
And I’m just thinking does it ever work out for those characters? Can’t they just keep their mouths shut until they you know, get through it?
I would not have expected 90 minutes about a woman stuck in a cryogenic pod and fast running out of air to be the first new movie to hold my attention throughout for a while.
But here we are.
FYI if you are very claustrophobic I’d tread lightly. I am myself but it never bothers me in films and I wasn’t bothered here.
You ever have those movies where you remember loving them but don’t watch them for ages so you forget a lot of the details and it’s like watching them all over again?
And no matter how many times that happens you still always love them…
About A Boy was always one of those movies for me. I watched it again and it still is plus it holds up.
I learned two things in the Venom Let There Be Carnage Trailer. Venom is apparently a morning person and Eddie is never getting his security deposit back.
Also Tom Hardy and Venom on a Monday morning is a nice pick me up.
