Winter-Spring 2015-2016 Movie Preview Part 2
Let's get into the subject: "London has Fallen" in March. I don't have much hope this will be less lame than Olympus, but I also don't have many trailers released for what's coming next spring ...
"Zootopia" seems a bit more ... no, actually a lot more promising. Even though we don't have Gerard Butler as a re-invented John McClane like in the one before.
DC Comics strikes back, with what it has more powerful: Batman and Superman in the same package in .. well .. "Batman vs. Superman" .. starring Ben Affleck .. as Batman .. (why I start having doubts that George Clooney is the worst Dark Knight? ...)
"Ratchet and Clank" is an animation getting out in April. I didn't like that much the trailer, but the synopsis was intriguing enough. Apparently with some PlayStation origins ...
If we have a fight between Batman and Superman, we definitely needed something from Marvel too ... "Captain America: Civil War" = Cpt. America vs Iron Man in May. In DC Comics' defense their subject has some older roots and was actually very well depicted in an animated version (probably one of the best Batman versions ever) ... Marvel's thing smells too much as marketing response for me ...
"The Nice Guys" seems for now the most interesting title announced for next spring. Shane Black is back after quite a while to the genre where we had the best from him as director, but even more as screenwriter: crime/thriller (as references every "Lethal Weapon" + the masterpiece: "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang"). Sounds promising ...
"X-Men: Apocalypse" ... no Wolverine ... too much Marvel, too many superheroes, enough said ...
That's about all for this preview round. Finally managed to finish it, a bit rushed it's true. Now' ... to take a vacation from blogging, not to take, to take, not to take ...
