Robert De Niro is a great actor. Zac Efron has the capacity of being an actor. Aubrey Plaza is a great comedic actress. So WHY are they all working together to produce possibly the worst comedy that could ever exist? Just...BLEURGH Grimsby
When a green-band iteration of this trailer started during a screening ofSpectreI was at with my younger cousin, I was intrigued and indeed excited by the prospect of a film in which Mark Strong beats up a load of guys in a POV action sequence. But when Sacha Baron Cohen popped up, all that interest was gone thanks to a cheap which I'm certain only made by my relative. Perhaps aim your comedy at a younger audience, producers.
Despite some critics of this trailer commenting that there apparently isn't any need for this film to be stop motion, there's no denying that what we have a visually stunning picture with a somewhat eerie effect added to them. Plus, with Charlie Kaufman behind it all, we'll have a great screenplay to boot in a film that is apparently the closest competitor in the Best Animated Feature category at the Oscars against Inside Out.
Christmas Eve
Why does Hollywood keep making these ensemble 'comedies' based around a single holiday? Kung Fu Panda 3
Okay, so Jack Black is becoming a teacher in this film? Why does that sound duller than it should be - especially when considering that School of Rock was quite good? This just looks really generic for a franchise based around action and comedy, and not even J.K Simmons or Bryan Cranston can seem to save it.
I expressed back when D23 was ongoing that the plotline for this sequel was a little bewildering and like something from a TV movie, and seeing it in trailer form doesn't stop that thought process. Sure, director James Bobbin seems to be doing well considering his last two projects were Muppets films, but the plot keeps throwing me off and it just doesn't look any good.
The Hateful Eight
Following the recent controversy surrounding Tarantino, I have become a little softer on this film knowing that he's under heavy fire from America's police force for no good reason. But helping that is a good trailer for is next film, with some light comedy and a good amount of exposition so that audiences can join in on the fun. Consider me interested.
God's Not Dead 2
I present to you the funniest comedy that we'll see in 2016. Utter hilarity is to be had.
While not a trailer per say, this short does act as a prelude to the upcoming fifth(!) instalment of the Ice Age series...and I think they're starting to run out of ideas if they're now going off to space. Or will it be about the alluded meteor risking extinction of all the creatures (if so that's very dark for a children's film)...
Warcraft is a film that has gathered interest quickly thanks largely to the popularity of the game and Duncan Jones being at the helm of it all, and early photos from filming gathered excitement early on. But now we have a trailer and it looks pretty strong. With a conflict between two races which we'll actually see both sides of - a rarity really - and some strong visuals, you have a strong trailer for a film I'm mildly excited for. Yay!
HELLO CHILDHOOD! HELLO SEQUEL TO FAVOURITE FILM OF ALL TIME AND ULTIMATE GUILTY PLEASURE!
Ahem. Sorry, the child in me got out. I actually went into a small bit of detail once the teaser was released (as seen here), but for those too lazy to click on a link: I love the advancements in the animation from the first film, teaser opens strong but loses its footing a little thanks to a 3D segment that feels out of place for a teaser. But still exciting because IT'S A SEQUEL TO FINDING NEMO!
Ride Along 2
SKIP!
My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2
Another sequel to a film no one was asking for and involving the child of the first film's leads. Always a sign of success! In all seriousness, as someone who hasn't seen the first film, there's very little to say about it other than "really?".
The Night Before
Jesus Christ is that baby the scariest thing I've seen all year!
Moonwalkers
"Based on a true story"? Overselling yourself here...
The Divergent Series: Allegiant
Let's end this on a whimper, with a franchise that is somehow turning even more into the soon-to-be-concluded Hunger Games quadrilogy. Of course, I won't be watching this seeing as I actively avoided Insurgent.
