I wish I had had more bookish content to offer during the past weeks, but all my free time is sucked up by Critical Role and I don’t feel like apologizing for that. It’s something to keep me sane these days. However, I would never forget about our weekly trailer show, so let’s get started!
Movies
Honor Society
This is my kind of movie and I’m not sorry.
Not Okay
100% going to watch because of the cast.
White Bird: A Wonder Story
Wonder was such a lovely movie, this is going to be heartfelt for sure as well. It looks like they mixed the Julian Chapter and White Bird here.
1UP
I don’t know why, but it gives me Pitch Perfect, but about gaming vibes?
Barbarian
I mean … the title alone let me know that I wasn’t gonna get a cute Bill Skarsgard romance movie, but the beginning sequence reassures me in my believe that he’d be very good in that genre.
Gone in the Night
I see Winona Ryder, I click.
Queen of Glory
This looks like a really good movie, I also love that a bookshop is involved.
Purple Hearts (Clip)
Not sure military movies (romance or otherwise) are my thing, but I’d watch this for Sofia Carson.
Zombies 3
I still can’t believe it got so many sequels.
Lyle Lyle Crocodile
So … Shawn Mendes is voicing a crocodile?
My Old School
Interesting way to do a documentary.
TV Shows
The Longest Night
Pretty sure there was a movie with the same title, but not sure they were about the same thing.
The Lazarus Project
Time travel messes are always my jam.
Five Days at Memorial
I think this is actually based on a fictional novel rather than actual events?
Trying (Season 3)
I keep meaning to watch this show and I haven’t yet.
Stranger Things (Season 4, Vol. 2)
I’m genuinely worried that a character I adore is going to die. I know, at some point, a main character likely will have to perish, I just don’t want it to be any of my particular faves. If this trailer is foreshadowing, I’m gonna be pissed and I’m gonna remind Sean Levy of a certain interview he gave a while ago.
What We Do In the Shadows (Season 4)
I know this show has always been beloved, but I love the attention it is getting because of the popularity of Our Flag Means Death.
I can’t wait for season four of What We do in the Shadows.

Kat, just finished the Stranger Things season 4 episodes (avoided all spoilers) and I agree…I got a b-a-d feeling about the potential of losing someone (or someones). Enjoying the horror of it all, and looking forward to Friday’s release of the final parts of the puzzle that is season 4.”I see Winona Ryder, I click.” – made me laugh out loud when I read that. I agree.

Who are you most afraid to loose on Stranger Things?
Winona Ryder is a big draw. She’s just fantastic.

I’m wondering if one or both…Nancy and Steve…might not make it to the finish line. Heck, I thought Steve was dead earlier. Rooting for them. But, I highly doubt everyone gets to Season 5.

I’m not sure I could forgive them taking Steve away from me, but I have a sinking feeling he’s on the chopping block. Shawn Levy once said in an interview that, the day Steve Harrington dies, is the day he walks off set … so, I hold out hope for that.

Thoughts:
1. Barbarian: Looks really freaky.
2. Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile: Why is this set in New York? Yes, alligators in the sewers is a popular rumor there, but everyone knows Florida is where gators and crocs would get along with humans! Hell, some Floridians feed crocs steak from pond edges or in their own kitchens! I’ve seen videos of it. Also, I don’t think this will do well, but what do I know?
3. My Old School: Well, that was really weird. I had no idea that Brandon Lee was a thing.

Lyle Lyle Crocodile is based on a book from the 60s, so you ought to ask the author about the details haha

You learn something new every day. Also, I don’t think Florida was considered a “crazy state” back in the day, so maybe that has something to do with it.

“all my free time is sucked up by Critical Role” is such a mood haha! I always have phases of basically consuming nothing but CR and I totally agree, it definitely helps keep me sane! 1UP really feels like Pitch Perfect lol but I’m probably going to watch it because those kinds of movies scratch a particular itch in my brain!

Critical Role has become my everything at the moment, only really disrupted with some Dimension 20 clips every now and then haha it’s becoming ridiculous, but once I have a phase like that, it lasts quite a while.
