How was your week, folks? I hope it was a good one. I am all nervous, prepping my monologues for my acting class on Wednesday. It’s great to have something to look forward to! Here are the trailers for this week:
Movies
Deadpool 2
Do I really need to say anything?
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
CANNOT WAIT!
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tale
Is it weird that I am glad this franchise is hopefully ending soon?
Kong: Skull Island
Maybe this will make me like Hiddleston more again?
Sand Castle
There’s some kind of war movie every week now, isn’t there?
War Machine
Interesting cast? I really don’t have much of an opinion on these things …
Bright
They had me at “an alternate present-day where humans, orcs, elves, and fairies have been co-existing since the beginning of time”!
OKJA
Netflix does not shy away from doing odd things.
Alien: Covenant
Not for me, as you should know, but it’s a big movie, so here you go.
The Promise
I like Oscar Isaac.
Dark
I put this on the list because it’s German and on Netflix and I always see that as a big win. But in terms of tone, this is mostly what gets produced in Germany and Austria. Do you see what I have to work with here? I barely ever get anything upbeat …
TV Shows
13 Reasons Why
I am not a fan of the book, but this honestly looks … good?
Glow
This looks weird, but Alison Brie – count me in!
Famous in Love
I wish the cast was different … I bet The Arrangement is better.
Mindhunter
This is disturbing AF to me.
What are you watching? What’s on your mind?
Deadpool and guardians of the galaxy look ace. I’m really interested to see what Aliens Covenant ends up like. I grew up with the Alien films and Prometheus was pretty good so I have high hopes, plus there is no way Hubs won’t want to see it! 😂

Those are all great reasons to watch! I never really liked those kind of alien movies, I much prefer E.T., Super 8 or Arrival somehow.

Dark seems really epic! I’m excited to watch it. Plus, I like that it’s in German. Even though I don’t speak it. I hope it’ll be on Netflix Belgium too.
Mindhunter freaked me out but I guess it’s about the beginning of profiling? Sounds like something I’d love to watch.

I like profiling in general as well, but I don’t know what it was about Mindhunter that made me feel queasy.

I think it’s the way they talk over each other when all you can see is the red blood spots. It made me uncomfortable too

Deadpool 2 and GotG vol. 2: Count me in! Can’t wait! Pirates of the Caribbean: I stopped caring after movie #4 was such a disappointment. Kong: Skull Island; YEEEESSSS! Bright: My interest is peaked. Alien: Covenant: YEEEEESSSSSS! Dark: Ooooh! Intriguing. 13 Reasons Why and Mindhunter: I’ll put them on my Watch List with Dark. I wonder if that one is going to be available in the US? So many questions. So many things to watch!

I took the trailer for Dark from the US Netflix account, so I would definitely say that it will be available there.

Well, in the trailer it said Winter 2017, so it will still be a while.

Yeah, but I’m willing to wait for (what will hopefully be) good horror

Hmmm … I think it will be a mystery thriller, but whatever. Also, I just realised that it’s a series and not a movie apparently.

Even better. More room for surprises and character development.

ALWAYS GAME FOR MORE DEADPOOL. It’s just so good. It’s a different director but it is still honestly so Deadpool-y that I can just roll with it. I hope they don’t get the sequel curse. Same for GOTG!
And I feel like I have a new series to watch. I cannot wait for 13 Reasons Why. 😊

And yeah that German/Austrian show is very… well, dark 😉 Still looks good though!

With Dark, I was just really excited to recognise some faces. Netflix pays well from what I hear, so I am happy for the actors to have booked that gig.

I love how Netflix just poured out a 100 new TV shows and movies in less than 48 hours! Even if they aren’t to come out till December 2017! 😛 Looking forward to Deadpool 2 and GotG Vol 2 too!!

Hahaha yeah, Netflix dropped a ton of new things on us. Sometimes I wonder why they promote it so much ahead of time. Seriously, it’s not like you’ll miss the premiere or something if you are a subscriber.

Jokes were thrown around that Netflix was triggered when Amazon got Oscars (because of Manchester by the Sea) this year! Hahahah 😀 😀 😀

Oooooh! That actually makes sense though. Well, Netflix doesn’t do cinematic releases though, right? Isn’t that like a criteria to get an Oscar?
LikeLiked by 1 person
By cinematic release, you mean out in theaters? That is indeed true for Netflix. I don’t know if there’s a way for Netflix to get an Oscar somehow, but even then. To not be able to get an Oscar at all? More reasons to be triggered hahaahh

Don’t worry about the 13 Reasons Why book, in my opinion you aren’t missing out on anything there. I enjoyed others a whole lot more.

Guardians of the Galaxy ❤ I am so excited for that film. I love the first one and the dynamic between the characters is awesome. I keep forgetting about Pirates of the Caribbean. They should have just ended it after the third one.

I agree, Pirates of the Caribbean is so unnecessary. I didn’t love the ending of the third one but it was still a proper end.

I’m beyond exited for Deadpool 2 and the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie! I adored Deadpool and even went to see it in the cinema three times, I NEED that movie in my life. And I have loved PotC for the longest time, I have see all the movies in cinema and they have such a special place in my heart, despite all their flaws. 🙂
Mindhunter looks sooo interesting! I tend to enjoy dark and disturbing tv shows, soo that’s definitely one I have to check out. Amazing post, as always. 😀

I had no idea that Pirates of the Caribbean was going to have another movie?? So thanks for the link! But I do agree with you, this franchise has been drawn out long enough, but I’m sure the film will be entertaining to watch all the same. XD

I agree with you on 13 reasons why. I loved the idea and the concept of the book- when a friend described it to me I was so drawn to it. I found it really disappointing though? The trailer looks promising, I’ll be interested to see how it turns out!

Yeah, I try to only ever have moderate expectations when it comes to adaptations, but for now, I find that this looks better than the book.
