Trailer Review: Hoppers
From this trailer, Hoppers appears to have two premises, two plotlines, and I don’t really know how to feel about the second one.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps teaser is a fascinating look at the current cultural interests, and especially what Marvel has learned from its other projects. The aesthetic, from moment one, is so very distinct—and so very familiar.

Well, “Joy to the World” gave me a little more Doctor Who, but now I must wait, yet again. The new season won’t be starting for a while now—and all I’ll have is the trailers. Or, in this case, a teaser trailer. Which, as far as I can tell, just means it’s way shorter.

This seems like something different.

Wonder Woman 1984: More Excellence I don’t know what it is about Wonder Woman, but it was the first good DC movie, and it looks like this will be the same. This trailer is wonderful. The shots of her riding the lightning by lasso is such a novel, cool visual, and something that no other…

The New Mutants Might Save The X-Men The New Mutants is a gamble. If the critical consensus is anything to go by, the recent X-Men movies have been a disappointment across the board. But perhaps the problem is that they have been stuck with the same few characters, ideas, and plot lines. What if they…

The Rise of Skywalker Is So Important Leave hot takes about The Last Jedi by the door, we are talking about the end of another saga, and one of the biggest moments in nerd culture since the last momentous one, like, a few months ago: The Rise of Skywalker is here. And while the first…
