Movie Trailer Monday
It’s Monday, I have the day off from work and am just snowed in enough that I don’t feel like going out to clean off my car. I was going to see Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire this past weekend, but I didn’t because my car is covered in snow. How’s that for the universe’s sense of humor? Anyway, it’s time to share a couple of movie trailers that came out last week!
First up, Alien: Romulus. I’m not a big Aliens guy, so I’m not super hyped for this franchise or this trailer. But it came out, people are excited, so here we go!
It’s just a teaser trailer, so not too much revealed. But I’d say this trailer does a great job setting the tone, setting what the movie is gonna be like. Lots of running, lots of CGI monsters. The Face Huggers run now. Did they always do that? Or is this a running zombies upgrade? Anyway, looks fine. Not sure what the “Romulus” subtitle is about, but it exists.
Alien: Romulus is coming to theaters on Aug. 16.
Next up is a fun new trailer for The Fall Guy!
This movie looks like a hoot! Funny, charming, full of action and weird story beats. I think this one could be really wild and popular this spring/summer. Maybe this year’s Bullet Train, only it has more success at the box office than Bullet Train.
The Fall Guy comes to theaters on May 3.
Lastly, a fuller trailer for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
I want to like this movie. I’m going to see this movie in theaters opening weekend. But I stand by my claim that Furiosa did not need an origin story movie. I don’t know how this is supposed to compete with or compare to Fury Road. That movie was a masterpiece. Why not make a sequel? We already know that Furiosa isn’t going to achieve any of her goals in this new prequel. But we’ll see.
At least Chris Hemsworth looks like he’s having a ball as the villain!
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga comes to theaters on May 24.

6 Best Ghostbusters Toys I Had
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire comes out this week and I was racking my brain to come up with some type of Ghostbusters-themed list. I’ve settled on just going down memory lane in regards to some of the Ghostbusters toys I had as a kid, because I was wild about that stuff! I enjoyed the movies, even the second one, and was big into The Real Ghostbusters cartoon!
There was even one Halloween where my parents made my younger brother a full-on Stay Puft Marshmallow Man costume, which was all puffy and awesome. I would give so much to have a picture of that somewhere. I had a store-bought Egon Spangler costume to go along with him that year, so it was that really cheap, plastic clothing smock and mask with thin, stretchy band around the back. But I had some bonus goodies to make that costume really shine!
Join me after the jump to just admire some awesome Ghostbusters toys and whatnot from over the years.

Tell It Animated is a great YouTube channel. Just a dude having a blast, and he’s accrued more than 1 million subscribers. Good for him! I’ve been a fan since the very beginning and will always gladly share his content. This time, he’s doing cinematic Frankensteins, possibly in connection to Lisa Frankenstein or maybe Poor Things.
Also, I am too sick still to care about the difference between Frankenstein and Frankenstein’s monster, so don’t come at me, bro. I just wanna share a fun video on this Monday so that there’s something we can enjoy. Stupid cold…

They Released a Full Inside Out 2 Trailer While I Wasn’t Looking
Once upon a time, Pixar movies were really, really great. They’re mostly mediocre these days. I don’t remember being particularly impressed with the first Inside Out. I think it was fine? It’s definitely very popular in the public’s mind. So a sequel was a good idea!
Looks good to me! Even if the idea that there are additional emotions was pre-negated by the fact that we saw adult minds in the first film, and none of them had the additional emotions. How you gonna answer that, movie? Huh?!
Ugh, I’m sick this week and my blog banter is trash. Hope you enjoyed the trailer. Inside Out 2 comes to theaters on June 14.

6 Characters I Want to See in Deadpool & Wolverine
Deadpool & Wolverine is coming to theaters later this year, the only Marvel Cinematic Universe movie to come out in 2024. I’m very excited. The world is very excited. This movie promises to be the multiverse caper to end all multiverse capers! So I have some ideas I’d like to see.
We recently learned that actor Vinnie Jones turned down the offer to return as the Juggernaut from X-Men: The Last Stand. We already know there are some crazy cameos planned for this film, though I don’t want to spoil what I’ve heard in case you haven’t heard them too. But it got me thinking of cameos I’d like to see. I saw all of those X-Men movies and probably most other Marvel-adjacent films they might draw cameos from. So I’ve got together a list of all the cameos I’d like to see in Deadpool & Wolverine!
Join me after the jump for some hopeful surprises, and feel free to share your own cameo hopes and dreams in the comments below!
