Wonder Twins LEGOs, You Guys!
A new mini-trailer for The LEGO Batman Movie came out this weekend, and while it’s great, it also features something truly special: Wonder Twins LEGOs! Keep your eyes peeled at 1:24 in the video for the specialness.
That’s just plain fun.
The trailer is good too. This movie is going to be all manner of amazing. Cannot wait. Maybe the most anticipated movie of 2017? Yeah, maybe.

Spider-Man: Homecoming Trailers Are Here!
The first trailers for Spider-Man: Homecoming arrived on televisions and Internets last night, and they’re pretty cool. Check’em out.
Honestly, I’m kind of lukewarm about these trailers. They’re good, but they’re not exactly blowing me away. I like the teen Peter Parker stuff immensely, and Tony Stark is always good. The Vulture also looks pretty badass. I’m hoping for a lot of greatness from Michael Keaton. But overall, these trailers don’t offer us anything new with Spider-Man, and that’s disappointing. This is, what, the sixth Spider-Man movie in however many years? The third incarnation? Marvel has a pretty big hurdle to clear here, though I would say they’re on the right track.
The movie comes out in July, I think.
What’d you henchies think of the trailers? Let me know in the comments!

Suicide Squad was Honestly Disappointing
Suicide Squad finally gets the Honest Trailers treatment, which is always a hoot.
Someday we’ll probably get tired of making fun of this movie. But it is not this day! Someday DC and Warner Bros. will make a great and universally beloved film. But it is not this day! This day, we mock!

So They’re Making a New Mummy Movie
Word has it that Universal Studios is still trying to put together their shared monster universe. The Mummy is the either the next or first part of the universe, depending on whether or not anybody still cares about Dracula Reborn. Do you remember Dracula Reborn? Then that probably answers that question.
Anyway, the new Mummy will star Tom Cruise, so maybe it has some chops.
Can’t say as how I’m too impressed or interested based on that trailer. Looks fine, I suppose, and Tom Cruise usually doesn’t get wrapped up in crappy movies. So hey, maybe it will be good. In general, I’m totally in favor of a big shared monster universe. If they can make awesome versions of Frankenstein and the Wolfman and Dracula and have them all fight or join forces, that sounds neat.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Trailer is Smashing!
A lot of trailers for movies and video games have dropped in the past few days, and I didn’t post them because I had some other projects planned. So I’ve been saving them up for a Trailers Monday! Should make for a fun day! We’ll kick things off for the first full trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, and just like the teaser trailer a couple of months ago, it’s hilarious and amazing.
I wish I was a non-comic book fan at moments like this. I wish I was just someone who really enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy two years ago, and now gets to watch this sequel trailer with no real knowledge or understanding of comics and no real knowledge of understanding or obsession with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I wish I could watch this trailer as just someone who is looking forward to the continuing adventures of Star-Lord and Groot and Drax, and could react to these hilarious moments naturally.
Ah well, even with all that I know, this trailer was still so funny and so great. I cannot wait!
