Look! A shirtless Zac Efron! With his chiseled biceps and abs! is what I believe is the marketing strategy for Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising. Taking cues from 22 Jump Street (which is hilarious) and The Hangover 2 (which is atrocious) – because every hit comedy movie should have a sequel –

Trailer for ’10 Cloverfield Lane’, as expected, came out of nowhere
Internet broke with the release of a trailer for a mysterious science fiction film called 10 Cloverfield Lane. The film is directed by Dan Trachtenberg from a screenplay co-written by Matthew Stuecken, Josh Campbell, and Whiplash-director Damien Chazelle. Now producer J.J.

‘Free the State of Jones’ trailer premiere: McConaughey rebels against the confederacy
When you put Matthew McConaughey in a film about American freedom, he’s bound to be pretty much the film’s most valuable commodity. Lines like “Last time I checked, the gun don’t care who’s pullin’ the trigger” are almost always put on rain check until someone like him along. It’s less
New ‘A Bigger Splash’ trailer: Tilda Swinton…Tilda Swinton for days!
2016 will surely be an exciting year for fans of Tilda Swinton—Goddess of Cinema—who was mostly absent on movie screens in 2015.

Throwing up in Balenciaga bags (ft. Vilma Santos in ‘Everything About Her’ trailer)
There it goes. Star Cinema is pulling a Devil Wears Prada to us. It sounds like an excuse to showcase all the camp Ate Vi harbors inside her, and it’s an excuse we’re gladly taking. The trailer for the Vilma Santos-starring dramedy Everything About Her just debuted online. Directed by Joyce Bernal, the film finds Santos playing an
Trailer Debut: ‘Everybody Wants Some!’ of Linklater
I’m excited for the latest Linklater for one reason: Linklater. But that’s about it.

An announcement trailer, which I wasn’t aware is a thing now, has just been released for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and potterheads (not to be confused with potheads!) all over the world are probably screaming, “Accio, November 2016!” as they, like me, are excited to once again

Aliens are back in first ‘Independence Day: Resurgence’ trailer
“We always knew they would come back,” declares the trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence (sadly not related to the upcoming Toho-produced Godzilla Resurgence), a sequel that no one asked for but we’re getting anyway because every other movie from decades ago is either getting a sequel or being rebooted. It’s been

Watch Sid Lucero do different levels of Tom Cruise in trailer for ‘Toto’
Different levels of Tom Cruise? Ha! Get it? Save for its protagonist’s knack for Cruise’s shades in movies, the new film Toto has nothing to do with the Dorian Gray of Hollywood Action. Instead, it pivots around a young man (played by Sid Lucero) who will do every thing that will get him a
Gather all you human beans, ‘The BFG’ teaser is here
Anyone who has read Ronald Dahl‘s works (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda) should be familiar of the side effects: a tremendous amount of curiosity and a tinge of heartbreak.

‘The Legend of Tarzan’ teaser debut: Skarsgard’s body is just not of this earth
Remember Alexandar Skarsgard (a.k.a. The Body That’s Just Humanly Impossible)? The ladies of the world sure do; a vampire with true super erotic powers is hard to come by these days. Well, the Swedish actors now top-bills the new film The Legend of Tarzan, an action-adventure which looks to expand
A female gunslinger is reborn in ‘Jane Got A Gun’ trailer
The concept isn’t new, but hey, it’s Natalie Portman astride a horse and with a gun in a skirt—and this time it isn’t a space opera. There’s a lot going on in her latest project that doesn’t involve her having imaginary wings or clawing herself out in front of a mirror (okay, okay
‘The Nice Guys’ Trailer: Crowe and Gosling swing in Shane Black’s latest
If the freshly-released red-band trailer for The Nice Guys is any indication, Shane Black looks to deliver a groovy action comedy with headliners Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe.

‘A Monster Calls’ Teaser: Bayona’s latest summons monstrous yew tree
It’s weird to receive promotional material for a film that comes out still a year later. P.R., for how we’ve come to perceive it, is a game of professional cramming. Yet a teaser trailer for J.A. Bayona‘s latest—the low fantasy adventure A Monster Calls—is just released eleven months away from its release. This

Charlie Kaufman breathes life into the odd and delightful stop-motion world of ‘Anomalisa’
Touring as a selection at numerous film festivals worldwide, Paramount’s acquisition, Anomalisa, might just lift the Academy Awards animation category a notch higher, stirring some competitive buzz against Pixar’s and Ghibli’s probable entries.
