Godzilla vs. King Kong

Gigantic “Godzilla vs. Kong” Powerful Bargain for the Spotlight

Godzilla vs. King Kong

Directed by Adam Wingard, Godzilla vs. Kong is the next epic cinematic chapter in the battle of the two most significant icons in motion picture history. All as CGI, the fearsome Godzilla, and the mighty Kong fight it out with humanity caught in the balance.

Yes, the legends collide as Godzilla and Kong, some of the most potent forces of nature, clash on the big screen in a spectacular battle for the ages.

Bus Shelter Poster

A squadron embarks on a dangerous mission into fantastic uncharted terrain, unearthing clues to the Titans’ very origins and humankind’s survival. A conspiracy threatens to wipe the creatures from the face of the earth forever, whether they are good or evil.

Watching the trailer, I am impressed. The line, “It’s Godzilla.” is nostalgia.

Showdown

Written for the screen by Eric Pearson and Max Borenstein from the story by Terry Rossio, Michael Dougherty, and Zach Shields, the film has an impressive cast that includes Alexander Skarsgård, Millie Bobby Brown, Kyle Chandler, and Rebecca Hall.

Get a Perspective and Soar With “First Man” Trailers

Directed by Damien Chazelle, who brought six-time Oscar winner La La Land to the screen, and star Ryan Gosling reteam the true story, First Man. It’s the first time Chazelle has tackled a movie based on a book. The movie follows the captivating story of NASA’s mission to land a man on the moon.

Like the book, First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong, by James R. Hansen, the movie focuses on Neil Armstrong and the years 1961-1969.

Nicole Perlman wrote the first screenplay, and now by Josh Singer, who is familiar with writing true stories earning an Oscar win for Spotlight, the story delves into the sacrifices and the cost—on Armstrong and the nation—of one of the most dangerous missions in history.

The intensity of this scene speaks for the situation.

All the interviews regarding First Man that I’ve posted on YouTube, whether an actor, director, producer or consultant, they talk about the movie immerses the audience into the film. The movie clip where Armstrong crashes the lunar training vehicle shows you exactly how the production company pulled that off – you feel like you are right there with Armstrong.

The featurette talks about Armstrong’s walking on the moon. Fantastic stuff.

I am excited about the casting with Claire Foy, playing Armstrong’s wife, Kyle Chandler, and Jason Clarke.

The below movie trailer arrived a couple of days after the first one. Both are similar yet share the intensity helmed by Chazelle.

The impressive sound, direction, and the cast are intense and influential.

The movie is streaming and Blu-ray/DVD is available. The credits include Steven Spielberg as a producer. The movie is riveting at best. Now is the chance to see it if you haven’t seen it yet, or you can view it again.

“The Vanishing of Sidney Hall” Trailer and Poster

Co-written and directed by Shawn Christensen, The Vanishing of Sidney Hall is an intense mystery that follows a detective, played by Kyle Chandler,  who is looking for Sidney Hall, played by Logan Lerman.   

After publishing a bestselling novel based on the death of one of his high school classmates, known as a controversial writer,  Hall finds himself catapulted to unexpected fame and prestige.

His relationship with his girlfriend, played by Elle Fanning, begins to fall apart as the dark consequences of the book intrude on their life together, and he disappears without a trace. Except, his books are connected to a string of mysterious arsons. Nearly a decade later, the detective searches for the missing author.

Christensen won an Oscar in 2013 for his short film Curfew. He keeps himself busy with an indie rock band, and he wrote some screenplays including Before I Disappear, Cul de Sac, and Karma Coalition.

The movie trailer is intense and drew me in as I watched it. I hope the movie is as good as the trailer.  With such a great cast, I can’t see why it wouldn’t be good.

“Game Night” Trailer

Co-directed by John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, Game Night is a hilarious movie that follows a group of friends with a standard get-together for game nights. Games consist of charades, board games or whatever the host provides. The group finds themselves trying to solve a murder mystery after one of the hosts, played by Kyle Chandler, takes the game up a notch. The game becomes real, and it is just not for fun anymore.

Writer Mark Perez crafts a brilliant, clever story that takes the cat-and-mouse theme to a new level. Rachal Adams and Jason Bateman are still the show in the movie trailer. I recommend you watch it. You’ll have great laughs, and it will lift your spirits.
