(trailer review) - House of The Dragon

Finally, FINALLY, we have a trailer for one of the world's most popular and most eventful shows that has graced us over the years.  If not one of, THE MOST popular event show ever!  I got into it when I believe it was season 3 deep and I got onto season 1.  My mate said to me to get on it, as he thought I would like it...and he wasn't wrong.  The thing with Game of Thrones is, it wasn't for everybody.  Some people don't like fantasy, medieval times, dragons etc.  Hey, I know people who don't like "Zombies".  And while GoT isn't like a Lord of the Rings and such, it is the characters you fell in love with or loved to hate and the legacy and lore woven into the show.  Everybody got involved and if anything, it found its way into the pop culture zeitgeist.  People felt like they were missing out on a brilliant show because EVERYONE was talking about it in the office.  There are videos, groups on Facebook and even Whatsapp groups about this show.  It was THAT kind of show.  And the trailer for this show, is JUST THAT! The Legacy, the Lore, everything that came before GoT and how the "weirdly" spelt and "weirdly" - "other" family did their thing with the families squabbling over the throne, to become that event show we will all come to love and talk about again over the water cooler.

This trailer is great!  It evokes what we know with even better production design and quality.  It gives us enough to understand whom we are looking at, who the main characters are and although there isn't a single shot of a flying dragon (likely because they are still working on he visual effects), this trailing looks like we are going back to Kings Landing and Dragonstone for a story that will give an insight on the famously white haired Targaryens, something we have ALL been waiting for.  Lets hope there is enough content to keep it going for a while so that it doesn't end up like the last few seasons of GoT.

Directed by Ryan J. Condal and starring Paddy Considine, Emma D'Arcy, Olivia Cooke, Matt Smith, Rhys Ifans, Steve Toussaint, Eve Best, Sonoya Mizuno, Fabien Frankel

(trailer review) - The Harder They Fall

(Official Teaser Trailer)

I did say in my last review that the trailer for this film is superb, but damn...this one is just that much better.  It's Black History Month here in the UK and I feel Netflix could have done us a Solid by dropping this a touch early because 3rd November 2021 is a long wait.

While it is nice to see an all-star black cast like this, the visuals, the music, everything just looks stunning! It looks like Jonathan Major's character is after Idris Elba and his gang who broke him out of prison for whatever reasons, maybe he is a sherif of that town or maybe there is a personal vendetta, but having this story played out, where if I'm not mistaken is actually based on or loosely based on true events, will be a sight to behold.

As  said in my last review, 'I cannot wait to see this and learn more about these people in history as in most film and westerns, you don't ever really see black people as they are usually far and few, so it is nice to have some representation', but having looked on wikipedia (which might not be the best for information at times), the gang was multicultural , so the liberties the director has taken with this, I'm not sure I am fully with because it then doesn't help with explaining or showing the motives of the non-black characters/people and why they were a part of the gang.  But as long as the film is as great as the trailer, then we should be cool!

(trailer review) - The Witcher: Season 2

I'm not going to behave and act as though I completely followed and understood season 1 of this show.  Whilst I watched it, a lot of it just wasn't sinking in.  I attempted to watch this show at least 3 times and it still wasn't sinking in so it is definitely going to be a re-watch before this second season is viewed because whilst I understood some things, the flashbacks at first were not apparent to me.  It was the backwards and forwards through time that I didn't understand nor get/follow.

This combination trailer of old footage and new footage is great though.  I'm not going to try and guess what is going on as I barely remember what happened in the first season, but for what I saw, I really enjoyed the first season and from this trailer, I really enjoyed this too, so it would be interesting to get a better trailer and something that could maybe show/tell us more of the second seasons' storyline.  Henry Cavill is just perfect though, I'm just waiting for them to announce he is the new James Bond oh, and when they are planning on doing a Man of Steel 2

Directed by Lauren Schmidt Hissrich and starring Henry Cavill, Freya Allan, Eamon Farren, Anya Chalotra, Joey Batey, MyAnna Buring, Royce Pierreson, Mimi Ndiweni, Wilson Radjou-Pujalte, Anna Shaffer, Mahesh Jadu
