Guy Ritchie is certainly trying to shake up traditions in King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (KA:LotS). While I’m not sure which country’s folklore the snake-ladies came from, they certainly are not Celtic. I get the sense he’s offering his take on Shakespeare’s Macbeth (The Three Witches) and is borrowing from Hindu legends (Nagas). When he is in control as writer-director and actor, playing the warlord Vortigern to claim the throne from Uther Pendragon, this filmmaker is certainly going to insure his stamp is all over the tale!
Many liberties on the Arthur’s origins are taken and early promotional material alleges Richie is drawing upon the Welsh interpretation. There’s plenty of nuances within the film which shows he is, and they work when he’s not trying to add his trademark on top.
The Sun and Moon are going to arrive together come November 18, 2016, for this latest instalment of the Pokémon franchise. Unlike previous teases of what’s to come for this video game for the 
(as featured in the trailer) and the 2DS (unavailable in North America), this announcement reveals where the story will take place, on an island chain named Alola region (this game’s version of Hawaii).

Gojira Resurgence (シン・ゴジラ) is baring his teeth and this beast looks ready to explode for his premiere July 29th, 2016 in Japan. The film will be offered in three formats—IMAX, MX4D and 4DX—to show the scale of this beast and in what this new trailer offer is a suggestion he’s a walking bomb looking for a place to settle in. This short does not say too much about the story, but in what’s implied is the fact the government is very well aware of Gojira’s existence for some time. They are scrambling to obviously try to put him down as he moves from the countryside to the city.
I’m still leaning on the dislike side of whether Paul Feig’s reboot of the 
), which is officially considered a continuation of this universe. Here, the team are now official city contractors and are training new recruits so their operation can branch out to other cities. Walter Peck, now head of the Paranormal Contracts Oversight Commission, is a continued nuisance and museum curator Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn discovers the architect who designed the building that Gozer landed on, had a grander plan. Ivo Shandor also created the network of tunnels to channel ectoplasmic slime through the city that was used by Vigo. Ivo returned as a ghost to assume Gozer’s place but as with any cheery eyed marshmallow giant who must explode, the plans have to be put to rest.
The problem with the trailer for Star Trek Beyond is that it does not feel like classic Trek anymore. When the title implies it’s moving away from the ideologies created by
