(trailer review) - Scream 6

I think my issue with the franchise at the moment is, why are these 'ghostface' masks still being sold. Also, if people are being killed over a period of time, would these masks not be seen as illegal?  I do not understand how we are soo far into a franchise where a cloak and (at this rate) a famous mask used for killing can still be used to, well...continue killing. I understand the masks are not made for killing people, but it is the main mask people have used to kill people over the span of 10 to 20 years, no? I think I will need to watch the franchise again from the very beginning and include Scream 4 (as I have not seen that one, yet) and see how these new films are interconnected. I have noticed how the recent Mission Impossible movies have been interconnected with each other and also draw from previous films which helps the viewer/fans become more invested in the franchise.

This trailer is decent though and I have no complaints. Is her name Sydney? She's toast in this one to let the newer guys come in and take over, but I had fun with Scream 5 (maybe due to the moving rollercoaster-like seats) the film was fun, although there were some plot points and story bits that did not make a lick of sense, however, I went along with it as I was heavily invested. I did not realise Wednesday herself, Jenna Ortega was in Scream 5 because I did not recognise or notice her until I watched Wednesday and then saw this trailer. Let's see how all this pans out. Strangely enough, I was off of the whole Scream franchise when it got to, Scream 3 or 4, I cannot remember which one I stopped at, but it was just too much and boring at the time. You are trying to force a franchise, that is how I felt, but something about Scream 5 got my attention and I was interested and I actually enjoyed it. Also, that Josh Segarra is the killer, I am calling it here and now. So, let's see, aye.

Directed by Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett and starring Melissa Barrera, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Jack Champion, Henry Czerny, Mason Gooding, Liana Liberato, Dermot Mulroney, Devyn Nekoda, Jenna Ortega, Tony Revolori, Josh Segarra, Samara Weaving, Hayden Panettiere & Courteney Cox

(trailer review) - Shazam! Fury of the Gods

Warner Bros. is in a bit of a dead space right now where it is difficult to know and understand the future of DC and its characters. Back in the day, they wanted to start a universe with various characters like an MCU, but Green Lantern did not do well and Christopher Nolan wanted to ground his Batman films. This in turn pushed DC back a few years until 'Man of Steel' came about. Trying to catch up to the MCU at this point was a very bad idea and now we are in a state of limbo with decent films, ok films and really good films in a universe that seems to be crumbling from within and at the seams. The first Shazam was decent and I really enjoyed it. I liked the dynamics, between the actors and the characters and it was an overall great film to sit down with some popcorn and watch.

This trailer looks like the story here is bigger in scope and in some cases, may actually involve the Marvel family (or shazam family) dealing with a force that looks like they are ill-prepared for and lack experience. The villains look decent and I am guessing this is your old run-of-the-mill, bad guy who wants to take over the planet, but the fact there is a fight with a dragon is wild. The Khaleesi line was hilarious and the film looks like it is going to carry out the same or very similar jokey tropes and comedic lines as the first movie, but I am here for a bit of fun. I think my only drawback with this movie is the why and the what. What is this movie doing in the DCEU right now, where does it sit and why continue with a movie (which was already shot before these new decisions were carried out) to potentially scrap the franchise? I think The Flash movie (barring the shenanigans actor Ezra Miller has been getting up to lately) will retroactively make changes to the universe that will help set up the future of the DCU (or DCEU) going forward because we are still having an Aquaman movie or simply shut down the universe to start anew. 
I will definitely go out and watch this movie as it does look like fun, so let's see what happens going forward. Hopefully, it is just as good as the first movie.

(trailer review) - 65

Two things strike me about this trailer, the name; and the fact that he is trying to outrun a tyrannosaurus rex-looking dinosaur "alien" thing. Unless he falls into a ditch, he should be dead. Only Lara Croft in the original 1996 Tomb Raider can out-manoeuvre a T-Rex, please let that be known. But back onto the name, 65. Then in the trailer, it said 65 million years ago, humans discovered Earth? Wait, what? I need clarification, as to whether we are in the future, so far in the future that back in the past, 65 million years back, we have dinosaurs again or did he accidentally time travel back to the dinosaur age through a portal with the modern tech of his era? Whatever it is, Mills is in the thick of it and he is trying to protect a little non-verbal girl as well.

I am loving the look of this movie because not only is it a survival movie, it is a sci-fi movie as well as a dinosaur movie and action adventure. Armed with whatever is salvageable from his crashed ship and trying to stay alive in an unknown land, this movie seems like it will keep you in suspense. I will hazard a guess that they will both make it out in the end, but the film would have balls to kill Mills by the end of the movie and the girl survives leading to a sequel, that would be ballsy and great. This movie is giving me a reverse Predator vibe and I am interested to see how it all pans out in the end because as I said earlier, only OG Lara Croft can make it out alive, I would not bet on anyone else.
