There’s a Lot Going on in Shazam: Fury of the Gods
I really enjoyed the first Shazam! movie. It was fun and charming, with a lot of good character and energy. So I’m pumped for the sequel, Shazam! Fury of the Gods. It looks to have the same charm, character and energy. And, apparently, there’s just a whole lot of everything in this movie.
Wow, that trailer is stuffed to the gills with stuff happening. We’ve got the two new villains, we’ve got the various family members depowered and split up. We’ve got the Wizard coming back. We’ve got Billy Batson making all sorts of decisions. I feel like the plot is pretty simple, but that trailer wants to show off everything. More power to them, I suppose!
Shazam! Fury of the Gods comes to theaters on March 17.

My 6 Most Anticipated Movies of 2023
The new year is here and that means we have a whole new year of movies to look forward to! I’m a big movie guy — and even do a movie review podcast for my day job, if that sort of thing interests you. And I’ve definitely got my list of most anticipated movies for the year. There’s a lot coming out, including a new Indiana Jones, a new Mission Impossible and a bunch of new Marvel movies, so which ones am I looking forward to most of all?
Look, I’m a simple man with simple tastes. Is this list mostly going to be made up of Marvel movies? Yes. Should you stop reading now? No! Maybe there will be some surprises! Heck, one of the movies on this list I only learned about by researching upcoming movies for this list! How’s that for anticipation? I find out it exists and I get so excited that it immediately goes on the list! This year should be a good year in movies. I know I’ve got my hopes up across the board!
Join me after the jump for my most anticipated movies this year. And feel free to share your own in the comments down below!
Read the rest of this entryThe New Ant-Man Trailer Goes Heavy on the Kang
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is only about a month away from arriving in theaters and I’m very excited! Ant-Man is my favorite Avenger and I’ve enjoyed his films. And the next one is gonna be big and bombastic! It’s also gonna introduce a proper Kang the Conqueror as the new big bad.
And the new trailer, debuting last night, really goes heavy on Kang action!
Fun trailer! Not as jovial as the first one, but it definitely shows off the action very well. We’ve got lots of Scott Langs, we’ve got some quality drama attached to his daughter, Cassie, and we’ve got a metric ton of danger associated with Kang the Conqueror! Sounds good to me. And yes, those are our first official looks at MODOK! How nifty!
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania comes to theaters on Feb. 17!

Evil Dead Rise Looks a Bit Too Much For Me
I’m not much of a fan of horror movies, especially gory ones. Just not my cup of tea. But that’s not going to stop me from sharing this red band trailer for Evil Dead Rise, which really lives up to all the insanity one can expect from this franchise. Definitely consider your own sanity when it comes to watching this trailer. Consider yourself warned.
Also, since it is a red band trailer and really gory in its own right, you’re gonna have to click through to YouTube directly if you want to watch!
That was some gnarly stuff! Man. Who even makes these movies? Who enjoys this sort of thing? It’s madness, I tell you! But madness is as madness does, so hopefully some of you out there will enjoy Evil Dead Rise when it comes to theaters on April 21.

The Renfield Movie Might Be Good
It’s January, so Hollywood has nothing much to show us. But there are new movies coming out in the months ahead, so we’ve still got trailers! Like this first trailer for Renfield, a new Dracula movie that focuses on his Igor. And it looks…good? It looks alright?
Renfield as a handsome dude with super powers? An interesting take. But it’s got Awkwafina! And Nicholas Cage seems to be having fun as Dracula. Plus Nicholas Hoult is always a hoot. Maybe this will actually be a nifty neato film.
I guess we’ll find out when Renfield hits theaters on April 14.
