Okay, this isn’t a bad way to wake up, going online to find
out the first Avengers: Infinity War trailer has arrived.
There’s a lot to dig into, but I’ll leave it at that for now. Check it out
below. We can discuss it at our leisure later, but know that I’m here for
Bearded Cap.

'The Disaster Artist' (2017) Movie Review
Autodidactic multi-hyphenate James Franco has directed a
startling number of feature films. Most of them are…okay. He’s shown potential,
but while none of his films are truly terrible, even the best aren’t much more
than middling. Instead of cranking out four or five mediocre literary
adaptations a year, I’ve argued I’d like to see him focus on making one really
good movie. And though his pace doesn’t appear to have waned one iota, with
The Disaster Artist, Franco may have made his first great
film.
Scott Adkins Is An Assassin-Fighting Assassin In 'Accident Man' Trailer
When you think comic book movies, you probably think dudes
in tights and sky portals and that sort of nonsense. But there are also things
like crews of assassins to be found on the funny book pages, which is just what
we get from this Accident Man trailer. To be fair, that’s
not why I’m psyched about this movie. I’m psyched about this because of Scott Adkins. He’s one of the baddest dudes on the planet, this is one of his passion
projects, and he’s not only stars, he co-wrote the script.

Ava DuVernay's 'A Wrinkle In Time' Trailer Is A Thing Of Candy-Colored Beauty
Cinematic adaptations of beloved literary works are a dicey
proposition at best. No matter how good a job filmmakers do, there will forever
be those who decry it as an abomination. I’m normally whatever about these—a good
movie is a good movie, even if it’s based on a book I love and even if it’s
nothing like said book. I’m not hugely invested in Madeleine L’Engle’s
A Wrinkle in Time either way. I read it once as a youngster,
I remember one of my sister’s elementary school classes turning it into a play,
but that’s about it. That said, the trailer for Ava Duverney’s adaptation looks
bonkers and epic and all kinds of rad. Take a look for yourself.

'Sweet Virginia' (2017) Movie Review
Over the past few years, Taylor Sheridan has won acclaim for
writing gritty crime dramas like Sicario and Hell
or High Water, and his directorial debut, Wind River. Director James M. Dagg, working from a script by the China
Brothers, tries to get in on that act with Sweet Virginia.
His sophomore feature dredges similar aesthetic and thematic territory. While
it succeeds on some fronts, it hits less hard on others, though the finished
product is a serviceable, if unremarkable, mumblecore neo-noir.

'Rampage' Trailer: Dwayne Johnson And A Giant Gorilla, Wolf, And Crocodile. What More Do You Need?
You know, sometimes I look at a certain movie and I think, “Did
I make that?” Because I’m fairly certain I’m the only one who could possibly
want to see it. And that’s the sensation I get watching the first trailer for
Rampage. It stars Dwayne Johnson and a giant gorilla, a
giant wolf, and a giant crocodile. And based on this first look, it’s already
the greatest video game movie ever made.
Watch A Crap Ton Of New 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' Footage
“I’m just so tired of all these Star Wars.” Okay, I’m not,
not at all. Nor did I have the titular line in Star Wars,
which has always chaffed. We’re now less than a month away from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, which I’m rather jazzed for. And just in case we
didn’t already know that, we’re at the point where Lucasfilm is beating us
about the head, neck, and face with promotional material. This includes a bunch
of new TV spots.
