I Do Hope Hellboy Has More Dialogue Than Just Quips
With the Captain Marvel movie right around the corner, studios are dropping their big new movie trailers. We had Dark Phoenix yesterday. And today it’s a new Hellboy trailer!
I’m still largely on the fence about this one…maybe. There’s no doubt I’m going to see it, because I go see everything. It’s what I do. But as per this trailer, the new Hellboy only speaks in quips. Weird.
I’m also still not sold on this new guy. He’s no Ron Perlman. Everything else in the movie looks pretty cool, though.

New Dark Phoenix Trailer Promises Another X-Men Movie
Before the X-Men are welcomed back into the comforting bosom of Marvel Studios, they’re going to release one more movie: Dark Phoenix. It’s going to be based on the classic Jean Grey story…which was already the focus of X-Men: The Last Stand. So why not have their last movie just be a re-do of one of their earlier movies?
I kid, I kid ’cause I love. I’m sure Dark Phoenix will be fine. And I’m sure we’ll all remember it as a true classic when Marvel takes over and makes the best X-Men movie of all time.

New Detective Pikachu Trailer Threatens My Sanity
I have been a fan of pokemon since Red/Blue, when I randomly decided to get the game for my old school original Game Boy after reading a magazine article. I’ve played every main generation…though I completely avoided the card game, all spin-off video games and barely watched the anime. So maybe I’m not the world’s biggest fan.
But the very existence of the Detective Pikachu movie is blowing my freakin’ mind!
This is pure madness. How else do you explain this trailer? All those realistic looking pokemon! All those surprises! And I love that song! That this movie exists, and could be amazing, and could kick off a whole new franchise of realistic live action pokemon movies, is just the sweetest idea ever.
Though I don’t really like Ryan Reynolds as the voice of Pikachu.
Also, somebody ask me about my Master Six pokemon fan fiction. I’ve been sitting on those ideas since I was a teenager writing fan fiction.

A Couple Fun Movie Trailers!
I’m a big movie buff. And while I’m the sort of sucker that loves every single Marvel movie, I also like smaller independent stuff. As such, I came across a couple trailers for smaller independent stuff this weekend and thought I’d share.
First up is Yesterday, with a truly phenomenal premise. I won’t spoil it for you. Just watch the trailer!
I can’t wait to see that one! Looks marvelous!
Next up is Long Shot, starring Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen. It looks neat!
Yesterday comes out on June 28 and Long Shot comes out on May 3. Hopefully they’ll be playing in theaters near me because I’d like to give them a watch. And hopefully, now, you do too!

But Where is Magic Carpet?
For reasons that are probably insane, my favorite character in Aladdin was Magic Carpet. I like sidekicks and supporting characters, especially sentient vehicle sidekicks. We can blame Benny the Cab for that.
But where is he in the new Aladdin live action trailer?
Everybody’s talking about Will Smith as the blue Genie, but he looks and acts exactly like Will Smith as a blue Genie. I want more Magic Carpet!
Oh wait, I just re-watched the trailer before posting this. We do see him in the background in the Genie reveal scene. Alright then, I’m satisfied. Go about your business.
