Double-Dose of Turtle Trouble!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows debuts this weekend, and I’ll get around to seeing it eventually. I enjoyed the first movie, for what it was, and I’m hoping this sequel has the same level of energy and general fun. At the very least, it’s brought out the usual assortment of Ninja Turtles Internet videos.
Thank you, Cinema Sins and Screen Junkies, for your continued entertainment value. Secret of the Ooze was my jam when I was a kid! Not sure about that other thing though…

I Think I Like These More Than Cinema Sins
Recently, a hero at Shesellssheshells has started sinning the Cinema Sins videos! He throws shade at the weak sauce critiques that Cinema Sins has been putting down, as the kids are known to say. He has now torn apart Everything Wrong With Avengers: Age of Ultron. It’s fun!
Though I’d come up with a better name than ‘Shesellssheshells’. I’m not even sure I’m spelling that right…

If This 5 Minute Trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence Doesn’t Get You Excited For the Movie, Nothing Will!
I know it worked on me. I guess I might actually see it in theaters now.
The nostalgia is strong with this one. And hey, if we’re lucky, Independence Day: Resurgence might actually be good. We have to hope. And in that hope, maybe we’ll get an OK movie experience. The movie comes out on June 23.

Thor: Ragnarok Puts Its Foot Down!
The first details of Thor 3: Ragnarok were unveiled today, with Marvel dropping both a cast list and this sweet concept art. The new cast members and characters sound very, very promising.
Lookin’ pretty badass
We’ve got Cate Blanchett playing Hela, the Norse goddess of the Underworld. Jeff Goldblum, of all people, is joining as the Grandmaster, which is a very interesting choice. He’s like The Collector from Guardians of the Galaxy, one of those oddball cosmic Marvel characters. Not sure what this means for the MCU.
Tessa Thompson will be the superhero Valkyrie, which is awesome. And the biggest news is that Karl Urban will be Skurge the Executioner! Hells yes! Now that is some casting and character I can get behind!
Good things happen when you’ve got Skurge and Hela in a Thor story together. Gjallerbru is the #1 thing I’ve wanted to see in the solo Avengers sequels since at least 2012! Surely Marvel’s going to make it happen. How could they not?
I’m still not sold on the Hulk being in this movie, but whatevs. I have nothing but absolute faith in the Marvel Movie Machine, and Thor: Ragnarok already sounds promising. It’s going to hit theaters on Nov. 3, 2017.

New Ghostbusters Trailer Still Looks Good
We’ve got a new trailer for the new Ghostbusters movie, and it still looks fine to me! I am definitely not one of those people complaining that they’re all women. To hell with that noise! This movie could be good, it could be bad, but I’m gonna see it in theaters anyway!
The trailers are definitely funny, too.
