Dragons, Devils, Ghosts, and Scares!

This is not the way I saw my evening going, but since I had the poor judgement of checking to see if I missed any recent trailers WHOO BOY WHERE THE HECK HAVE I BEEN.

There’s an upcoming Beetlejuice sequel:

He’s the ghost with the most.

I got no comment, except to say… maybe?

And then there’s an Inside Out sequel.

Which at one time would have had me excited, but then Pixar and Disney have been all about THE MESSAGE and they’ve fired anyone with experience and talent and so…

The notion of new emotions is cool, though.

The Crow is getting remade:

Another case where the budget is way too big for the subject matter. Low budgets give movies a gritty, lived-in feel and too much money makes them too slick, and this movie doesn’t need to be slick. That’s just not The Crow.

And there’s an ORIGINAL MOVIE! Will wonders never cease:

Made by AMC’s streaming Horror service Shudder, it’s getting a theatrical release and I no cap wanna see this one. It looks awesome.

And, of course, there’s two—TWO—trailers for House of Dragons. The Green:

And the Black:

You know if you’re excited for this series or not.

And, last but not least, The Acolyte, Disney’s newest Star Wars streaming series, also released a new trailer:

What’s that? There’s no link? You damn skippy.

Links are for closers.

Alien: Romulus Revs Up For August

The originally-meant-for-Hulu movie Aliens: Romulus is getting a full theatrical release in August, and the hype train is pulling out of the station.

According to Variety, the movie is about “a group of young space colonizers and scavengers who encounter the most terrifying life form in the universe inside a run-down space station” whereupon the expected xenomorph hijinks ensue.

Could it be good? Sure. Will it be good?

It’s 2024. What do you think?

Rebel Moon is Droppin’ The Deuce!

Dune Part Two is so successful, Netflix decided to release their own Sci-Fi spectacular second half*: Zach Snyder’s Rebel Moon Part Two: The Scargiver.

I have to say that, based on this trailer, Part Two has completely recaptured the magic of A Child of Fire, so fans of the first one can expect a fitting end to the movie.

(And apparently there’s also a six-hour long “Snyder Cut” of the whole thing also coming in June, so… whew!)

*spectacular Sci-Fi not necessarily included

Discovery Season 5 Hoves Into View

“I asked for a new Star Trek show, and for my sins they gave me one.” — Apocalypse Now, sorta

Paramount is carrying through with its threat, and Star Trek Discovery is returning to the airwaves in April, for reasons known only to the Elder Gods and the King in Yellow.

I feel I’m supposed to be more positive in these posts and Discovery has gotten better. Season 4 was better than everything that went before. It had legitimately watchable moments. Too few, but they were there.

Maybe this one will be even better. It’s possible, Picard Season 3 was mostly watchable, even decent in some places.

We’ll be reviewing it for the show in any case.

And by we, I mean me.

The JK Rowling Mandela Effect

Somebody on Twitter told JK Rowling that nobody reads her books and since that is absolutely not the world I am familiar with, I must have fallen through into an alternate timeline. I just want to let you people know that in the timeline I’m originally from her books are HUGE, like you wouldn’t even believe it.

Rowling Mandela Effect incoming.

$7.7 billion in sales for a 7-book standard British boarding school series with fantasy added (in case you weren’t familiar), plus 11 movie adaptations for the original 7 books and a TV series on the way, the best selling video game of 2023, plus entire THEME PARKS.

Her books were so popular they dominated the New York Times Bestseller List to the point that they had to CREATE AN ENTIRELY NEW LIST to put them on just so other people would show up again. They are STILL—17 years after the last one dropped—dominating the bestseller lists on Amazon and Audible, and the merch sales are INSANE.

She’s a BILLIONAIRE, and only a billionaire instead of much, much more because she gave over $225 million to charity.

So obviously I’ve entered a world where none of that happened, and Rowling is just a small-time writer of modern-era Murder Mystery novels. Sad, you guys would have loved the Harry Potter books. They were really great.

So is this the timeline where Chick-fil-A won the Fast Food Wars, or am I completely screwed?
