Tuesday Trailerpalooza
Last week, a metric ton of new trailers come out for everything from indie movies to big action movies to TV shows to video games. How am I supposed to keep up with them all? By dumping them on all in a single post on a Tuesday. Go me!
First up is the new movie Bottoms, which looks pretty fun as a silly, potentially raunchy high school teen comedy.
I might for sure give this one a watch if it comes to a theater near me. Could be funny. Could be really bad. There’s only one way to find out. Bottoms comes to theaters on Aug. 25.
Next up, let’s check out the trailer for the second season of Good Omens!
I really enjoyed the book, I really enjoyed the first season, and I’ll be happy to watch a second season. I’m sure they’ll have a ton of fun with this one! I think it’s an entirely new story, since the book didn’t have a sequel. As long as it’s got Neil Gaiman’s seal of approval, I’ll be content.
Good Omens season two comes to Amazon Prime on July 28.
Thirdly, it’s the full trailer for the long-awaited Venture Bros. wrap-up movie, which has the silly title of Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart.
I love the Venture Bros. as much as the next person. I even cosplayed as Henchman 21 at a couple of comic cons. Those pictures exist on the internet. Anyway, as much as I loved the show, I was somebody who got annoyed at how rarely new seasons came out. They were good seasons when they did…but they also rarely accomplished anything, paid off anything or were very memorable for the next five years of new content.
It was a shame when the show got cancelled, but…eh. I’ll gladly watch this movie. Hopefully they do pay off everything they put into this series. Or maybe there will just be more movies.
The Venture Bros.: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart will come to digital and DVD at the end of July.
Lastly, for now, we got a full game trailer for Moral Kombat 1.
I’ve played pretty much every Mortal Kombat game of the modern era. I’ll probably play this one at some point. Looks fine. No sign of Smoke, though, so perhaps I’ll have to wait for Mortal Kombat 2. I’m sure this one will be as fun as all the others.
Mortal Kombat 1 comes out on Sept. 19.

Our First Teaser for The Venture Bros. Finale Movie
I’m a big fan of The Venture Bros. At least I was, back when it was a show. It was really good, but I was also frequently annoyed at how long it took for those new, short seasons to come out. They were good, but never meaty enough to justify the wait. The Venture Bros. was one of those shows that, instead of delivering big, cool story things, just kept adding more small story things.
Then it got cancelled. But the movie is coming later this year! Here’s a sneak peek.
Looks fine to me! And I can even remember how the last season ended, so this short scene makes sense. One hopes this movie finally does the thing and puts this universe to rest. Though it probably won’t. Not settling all the big, ongoing stories is probably the point at this point. And that’s fine. Just getting this movie will be enough of a hoot.
The Venture Bros.: Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart is coming out sometime later this year.
