“Zombieland 2: Double Tap” Poster, Clips, Featurette & Trailers

Abigail Breslin, Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, and Jesse Eisenberg return to fight more Zombies.

Ten years ago, Zombieland became a hit and a cult classic that was fun to watch because it is such a wisecracking movie.

Directed by Ruben Fleischer, who directed Venom, the sequel, Zombieland 2: Double Tap seems as ridiculous as the first movie with the lead cast consisting of Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Abigail Breslin, and Emma Stone. They reunite with director Ruben Fleischer and the original writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.

In the sequel with Dave Callaham coming on board as the third writer, the comic mayhem continues from the first movie. The story stretches from the White House and through the heartland.

The four slayers must face off against the many new kinds of zombies that have evolved since the first movie, as well as some new human survivors. But most of all, they have to face the growing pains of their own cynical, make-do family.

The featurette tells us how the second movie differs from the first. It appears to be a lot more crazy and bazaar that the first one.

The second trailer shows how silly the movie will be in the theatres and the problem with the zombies being faster.

The movie clip shows the movie has the same humor as the first movie.

We have two more clips for you, and they prove to show us that the movie is different, including a mystery behind the copycats.

“The Hummingbird Project” Trailer, Clips & Poster

Written and directed by Kim Nguyen, The Hummingbird Project focuses on the ruthless drive in making billions of dollars in the digital world.

The story follows two cousins from New York. Vincent, played by Jesse Eisenberg, and Anton, played by Alexander Skarsgard, are trying to be game changers in the high-stakes game of High-Frequency Trading, which is computer-controlled trading with high-volume in a very short timespan. Winnings are measured in milliseconds.

The cousin’s dream is to build a straight fiber-optic cable line between Kansas and New Jersey, making them millions. But nothing is as easy as it seems on paper because of the cousin’s unforeseen stumbling blocks.

Anton is the brains, Vincent is the hustler, and together they push each other and everyone around them to the breaking point with their foolish and impractical adventure.

Constantly riding their backs and pushing them their old boss Eva Torres, played by Salma Hayek. She is a powerful, intoxicating and manipulative trader and she stops at nothing to come between them and beat them at their own game.

Nguyen is best known for writing and directing War Witch, which follows a child soldier coerced into a civil war in Africa and is claimed to be a witch. 

Watch the movie trailer and feel the silliness and intensity of the movie.

Skarsgard is so good to watch on film. He takes on the role and becomes that person using nuances of tone and unspoken expressions. He stars in The Aftermath playing a German after WW II when his country is rebuilding. He is great in that role as well playing against Kiera Knightley.

The following clips tell the story in a roundabout way. The script movies along at a nice pace and the actors eat it up. The clip where he tells her what he is trying to achieve explains the reason for the title of the movie.
