The summer movie season is in full swing, so we keep getting new movie trailers piled upon us. And I love watching them and sharing them, because why not? I love movie trailers! I can do this!

First up is the new, full trailer for Oppenheimer. This is gonna be a big, fancy movie, with fancy stars, a fancy director, fancy themes; this movie is gonna be a whole thing.

Looks fine so far. Looks like a serious biopic about Robert J. Oppenheimer. Or is it J. Robert Oppenheimer? I don’t know and don’t feel like Googling it as I write this blog post. The movie looks good and I am for sure gonna do an Oppenheimer/Barbie double feature that weekend.

Oppenheimer comes out on July 21.

Next up, on the complete opposite end of the movie spectrum, is the trailer for Meg 2: The Trench. Oh man, I can’t believe they made this movie. But here it is.

I remember the first Meg. It was a big shark movie, with Jason Statham doing his thing. I think I liked it, in that simple way of liking such a movie. And it looks like the same thing will happen with Meg 2. Honestly, I was almost excited for a dinosaur movie, but then the giant shark had to come along and ruin everything.

Also, how many times do they say the phrase “Meg” in this movie? Have they really been dealing with so many Megalodons that they always use the shorthand? Or is it just extreme brand repetition?

I guess we’ll find out when Meg 2: The Trench comes to theaters on Aug. 4.
