Looks Like Passengers Could Be a Good Movie

I hadn’t heard of the film Passengers until just very recently, and then the trailer came out and has convinced me it could be a good watch. Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence in a cool, sci-fi romance? Sounds like something I would watch!

It doesn’t come out until December, though. That’s a long time to wait. Hopefully both Pratt and Lawrence will still be delightfully entertaining by then.

I Honestly Liked Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows was a fun movie. It was dumb and full of plotholes, but I didn’t go to see cinematic greatness. Honest Trailers has that movie’s number.

Poor Stephen Amell. He was probably really excited about this movie and playing Casey Jones. But Honest Trailers totally nails his part in this film.

The Honest Truth about Captain America: Civil War

Oh Captain America: Civil War, you were the only great thing we had this summer. Honestly.

I watched the movie again just the other day, and it still holds up. Great Spider-Man, great Ant-Man, great everybody. Bring on even more! And lets get Honest Trailers for all of them!

Why Marvel Movies Don’t Have Any Catchy Theme Songs

Can you think of any memorable music from any of the Marvel movies? The fine people at Every Frame a Painting know why!

Personally, I’m a fan of the Avengers theme song, but I suppose that one hasn’t caught on yet. I can’t play it by ear, but I know it when I hear it. This is a pretty fascinating video. I can honestly say I don’t think about music very much, especially in movies. Though I’m also easily susceptible to being emotionally manipulated in a film with the right musical cue.

And it is kind of sad that none of the Marvel superheroes have their own little theme song. It could be played when they appear on screen!

The Star of PeeWee’s Big Holiday Has Been Cast as Deathstroke the Terminator!

The breakout character in PeeWee’s Big Holiday was, without a doubt, Joe Manganiello, played by actor Joe Manganiello. He was just fantastic! And I have some good news for everybody: he’s now also been cast as Deathstroke the Terminator in the DC Cinematic Universe. Most likely, he’s going to face off against Batman in the upcoming solo Batman movie.

It’s a little outside his comedy range, but I think this guy can pull it off.

Will he be as good as when he played Joe Manganiello? I guess we’ll see. He’s also got to live up to the great Deathstroke in Arrow. At the very least, here’s a Batman villain who can actually fight Batman. That should be fun.
