How About Some Animated Movie Trailers to End the Week?

It’s finally Friday. The week is over. I don’t have any comic reviews coming this weekend and would rather just ease into Thanksgiving next week. To help accomplish that, how about some animated movie trailers that randomly arrived yesterday? Did all these trailers come out to go before Wicked this weekend? I dunno.

First up is a full trailer for Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, coming to Netflix next year!

Who doesn’t love Wallace & Gromit? It’s been about a decade since we had a new movie and I’m ready for more claymation fun! I don’t have much of a memory for the early films, but this is a sequel to the original Wrong Trousers movie. I should go back and watch to make sure I understand all the references!

New Wallace & Gromit comes to Netflix on Jan. 3.


Next up is a surprise trailer for The Bad Guys 2, a movie nobody knew was coming out until now.

I avoided the first Bad Guys for the longest time because I didn’t care, but then watched it last Christmas when I was hanging out with my family and they highly recommended a watch. Then we watched their new Christmas special and it was garbage. So hopefully an actual, theatrical sequel will be much better.

The Bad Guys 2 is coming to theaters on Aug. 1, so it’s a long ways away.


Lastly, we have another look at the next Pixar film, Elio, which looks neat.

I really enjoyed the first Elio trailer that came out a million years ago. This trailer seems more childish and silly, which we’ll see how that works out. But I like the premise, at least. Could be a lot of fun. Or it could be another Strange World. Hard to tell this far out.

Elio comes to theaters on June 13!

Season 2 of Squid Game Might be Good!

Like everybody else, I loved the first season of Squid Game! I cried! I got annoyed at the ending! I didn’t think there needed to be more! But a second season is coming whether we like it or not, and with this first trailer, it actually looks really good.

I’m in. Seong Gi-hun has ditched the bright red hair and looks like a man on a mission. And I really like how he’s portrayed in this trailer, as someone attempting to step up and just lead the others from the very beginning. Could be pretty awesome. And the show is coming sooner than anticipated, with more Squid Game before the end of the year!

Jeez, the first season came out three years ago!

Squid Game returns to Netflix on Dec. 26.

One Last Look at New Arcane!

Arcane is coming back for it’s second and final season next month, and the world is excited. The first season was ground-breaking television and all levels of awesome. So one imagines a second season — with the promise of a solid wrap up — could be even better! How will that be possible? We’ll find out!

Anyway, here’s a new season 2 trailer! No major twists or spoilers, other than general trailer stuff.

Looks awesome! Looks like Arcane! Looks like we’re all going to have a good time in November.

God, I hope so…

Arcane returns to Netflix on Nov. 9, with three episodes per week again, I think.

Some New Wallace & Gromit on This Lovely Thursday

There’s a new Wallace & Gromit movie coming early next year! It’s been nearly 20 years since the last one, so huzzahs all around! Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl is coming to Netflix!

Looks fun to me! And looks like a nice way to start this lovely Thursday. Why is it lovely? I don’t know. It just is. And a little lazy. So let us revel and just cherish in a new trailer for Wallace & Gromit stuff. Looks funny. Looks same as always. Looks like exactly what we want.

Vengeance Most Fowl comes to Netflix on Jan. 3.

TV Trailer Tuesday!

A good question exists of why I share which trailers I do. Why some trailers but not all trailers? The answers is that I really just share trailers of projects that interest me. I’ve loved watching trailers since the days of Coming Attractions on the E! Network when I was a kid. Here are some trailers I’ve been sitting on over the past few days and am just dropping them now for funsies!

First up is the trailer for the fifth and final season of Star Trek: Lower Decks! I love this show. It’s my Star Trek. And it’s a damn shame this is the final season. We need so much more! This season looks great.

Can’t wait to watch. Love the Beckett/Jennifer stuff. Have no idea what else might happen. Anything could happen! I hope they go huge for the final season!

The last season of Lower Decks comes to Paramount+ starting Oct. 24.


Next up is the new Netflix cartoon Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft. This started last Thursday, but I haven’t watched it yet. I’ll get around to it one of these days.

Looks pretty straight forward to me. Lara Croft should be an easy character to adapt, so it’s weird that the movie franchise didn’t really take off. Hopefully this cartoon can reveal how it’s easy and awesome to make a show about a badass exploration hero exploring tombs and fighting bad guys and monsters.


Then we’ve got a new show called Hysteria, which looks pretty neat.

Looks like a fun premise, lots of cheeky humor and I think I’ll definitely try to find a watch somewhere along the way. Or maybe it’ll be one of those shows that comes and goes and nobody remembers it even existed. Who can tell? I’ll probably give it aw atch.

Hysteria comes to Peacock on Oct. 18, so at the end of this week.


Lastly is the first trailer for the second season of Silo on AppleTV+. DO NOT WATCH THIS TRAILER unless you’ve already seen season 1, because it’s full of SPOILERS.

Looks great to me! I really enjoyed the first season, and I can’t wait to see where they go with season 2. This trailer gives us some pretty fun hints and I can’t wait to see them play out!

Silo season 2 comes to AppleTV+ on Nov. 15.
