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!

Yoda Welcomes Us to Monday
I came down with something rather gnarly over the weekend, so my planned article about the awesomeness of Cyclops is gonna be slightly delayed. I’ll try to get it up sometime this week, once I’m in fighting shape. Until then, the kind people at Bad Lip Reading offered this gem.
Is there anything Yoda can’t do?

Liking the Warcraft Movie Might Be My Line in the Sand
I get it, people didn’t like the Warcraft movie. I enjoyed it, despite its faults. But in order to truly know a movie, we’ve got to sit through the various Internet parodies that come around.
Alas, Cinema Sins, I cannot fault you for being right. But let us hope we do get that sequel! I’ll even watch it in Chinese if I must!
