Even More Exciting, How About a New Black Widow Trailer?!
Man! When I woke up this morning, I didn’t think I’d have anything to share on the ol’ blog today. It just seemed like that kind of Monday! But then I found that cool Mortal Kombat railer. And now, even better, Marvel has randomly dropped a brand new Black Widow trailer!
Hot damn!
Still looks awesome! I don’t expect this film to pull off Avengers: Endgame numbers, and that’s fine. I think the world is ready for a more chill Marvel movie. This one looks good. It looks to be full of action, full of fun characters and will hopefully tell a really nice story.
Black Widow comes out on May 1!

How About a Blood-Soaked Mortal Kombat Cartoon?
Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion’s Revenge comes out next month and they’ve decided to entice us with a blood-soaked new trailer! Let the cartoon blood flow!
This movie looks interesting…to an extent. It’s weird how the first half of the trailer is all about a cool Scorpion origin story…and then the second half switches over to Liu Kang and company. It’s like the movie wants us to think it’s all Scorpion all the time…but it’s probably just another retelling of the same old Liu Kang story again.
Which is doubly weird, because aren’t we supposed to get a new live action Mortal Kombat movie soon? And won’t that movie probably also focus on Liu Kang’s story in the first tournament? Why do MK producers keep going back to that story? Surely we’re all bored of it by now?
If you had to choose between Scorpion and Liu Kang, I think 99% of us would choose Scorpion.
Or better yet, Sub-Zero! Like this write-up I did last year on my idea for a Mortal Kombat movie! It’s time we leave Liu Kang, Sonya Blade and that third guy in the dust! Focus on the actually interesting characters! You’re already most of the way there with Scorpion’s Revenge!

Connected Looks Pretty Good
I’m still not entirely sure what role Phil Lord and Chris Miller have in the new film Connected (I think producers?), but they’ve got a new animated movie coming out! It looks fun.
Lord and Miller are creative geniuses. They were behind The LEGO Movie and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. That’s the sort of resume that gets me to sit up and take notice. So here’s hoping Connected has the chops. It comes out on Sept. 18.

Check Out the New Batsmobile!
The Batman is definitely a movie that’s happening. There’s no stopping it at this point. We’re going to get a new Batman movie. There’s no sign of Robin, yet, but check out this cool new Batmobile. Director Matt Reeves shared this pic and others on his Twitter yesterday. I like the grounded, realistic, muscle car look.
We’ll have to make our peace with no wings
Reeves is definitely really good at building hype for his movie. We’ve seen the Batsuit, now the Batmobile, so surely he’s next going to tease the Robinsuit…right? Right?!

Some Honest Trailers to Enjoy on This Nice Friday
This strikes me as a very casual week, so lets cap it off with a couple of Honest Trailers I haven’t gotten around to sharing. I love me a good Honest Trailer, and I’ve got a couple of doozies today!
Like the Honest Trailer for the hit film Knives Out, one of my favorites from last year!
Knives Out was a great movie! And it’s on DVD, so feel free to go out and rent it if you haven’t seen it yet!
Meanwhile, how about an Honest Trailer for Frozen 2?
I liked Frozen 2, though obviously it wasn’t t he runaway hit that the first one was. I’m ready for Frozen 3. I’m also ready for Disney to reveal that Elsa is gay. That’s a drum I’m ready to just keep beating!
I saved the most boring for last! Terminator: Dark Fate!
Let us hope this is the end of the Terminator franchise for a nice, long time.
