Doctor Strange Trailer Review

Doctor Strange's first trailer is here and it is....... Strange....... Yeah, sorry, had to do it, but seriously, this trailer is unique and weird and fascinating! The film barely looks like a Marvel movie, which is fantastic. It will surely have more humor, but the visual aesthetic and visual effects are insane. Sure, it might look like Inception at points, and that's only because of those two effects scenes. Otherwise, Scott Derrickson is crafting a mysterious film about magic that departs fairly far from the typical superhero romp. Benedict Cumberbatch sounds very different than usual with an American accent, and Tilda Swinton actually shaved her head. The visual style gets me so excited to see what exactly Doctor Strange will be or do. What do you think? Please comment below and let me know.

Deadpool Trailer Review

Deadpool is finally here people! And it is utterly hilarious! Fox appears to delivering everything that we wanted with this Deadpool movie. It is meta, hysterical in parts, and captures the character perfectly. The trailer even explains Deadpool's origin clearly for those new to the character. He basically has Wolverine's heal factor, uses swords and guns, and he knows that he is a comic book character (or whatever medium he is in). Ryan Reynolds plays Deadpool again, and as the other promos show, the movie acknowledges how Fox completely screwed up the character in X-Men: Origins - Wolverine. Of course, the above trailer is the "green-band" trailer censored to release in theaters and TV, so if you are 18+ and want to watch the red-band (R rated) trailer, you will find it on YouTube. My main issue with the film is that it looks too vulgar, even for a Deadpool movie, but I plan to write about why we need two cuts of the film in theaters in a later post. What do you think of the trailer? Please comment below and let me know!

Jurassic World Trailer 2 Review

The trailers keep rolling in with Jurassic World next to hit the internet! Jurassic World's second trailer appears to be more of the same with Chris Pratt stealing every second of it. With that said, there are some potential issues. For one, it seems that Chris Pratt has trained the raptors to be hunting dogs for him. It is kind of a strange idea, but if anyone can make it work, it’s Pratt. Also, Pratt asks the question that we are all thinking about the genetically modification: "Their dinosaurs, that's wow enough." Seriously, why try to create something new when dinosaurs are cool enough, but hey, the reasoning from a corporation perspective seems good enough. However, my main issue is that the CGI is not impressive. The original Jurassic Park's main appeal was the wow factor of something that audiences had never been done before, and while that is nearly impossible to recreate, World has to do something to set it apart from the rest of the sequel. However, Chris Pratt's innate likability goes a long way in making the film look so much better than it could have been otherwise. Other than that, we will just have to wait and see, but rest assured that I will be in the theaters to watch it.
