John Cena Lends his Voice to Soft-Hearted Bull in new Ferdinand Trailer

John Cena was one of the most pleasant surprises in Amy Schumer's breakout comedy Trainwreck. Cena played Amy's hugely muscular, hugely conflicted boyfriend (he clearly preferred men to women) who had one of the most memorable arguments in a movie theater you'll ever see in a film. Cena's comedic timing was excellent, as if the former wrestler-turned-actor had been in the wrong profession until now.

In FerdinandCena plays the titular giant bull with a big heart whose mistaken for being a dangerous beast,...

Watch Video That Captures Every Single Death in Game of Thrones

Game of Thrones became a cultural phenomenon in part due to the show’s fearlessness with which it approached the death of major characters. Granted, this was in large part because show creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss were committed to staying as true to George R.R. Martin’s source material as possible, but it was still a shock to see arguably the main character, Sean Bean’s Ned Stark, get killed in season one. Since then, all GOT fans (who haven’t read Martin’s novels) have relied on the fact that their favorite character  could die at any moment...

Check out how Unsettling the Afterlife is in the First Flatliners Trailer

When we think back to the early 1990s, we usually think of Steven Spielberg’s game-changing Jurassic Park, which premiered in 1993. However for a certain segment of the population, the decade started off properly in 1990 with a wild, creepy thriller, Joel Schumacher’s Flatliners, starring Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, Julian Roberts and Billy Baldwin. Now, 27 years later, Sutherland returns in Niels Arden Oplev’s remake,  which stars Ellen Page (Juno),...

The Most Thrilling Trailer That Played Before Wonder Woman in the Theater Was…

By now you've seen Patty Jenkins' Wonder Womanand like us, probably loved it. We're curious, however, about what your favorite trailers were that played before Gal Gadot's Diana Prince started teaching Steve Trevor and the rest of the Allied forces to believe in her? We saw a bunch of very strong trailers (and one very brief, intriguing teaser), but there was one that stood out—Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk

New Vignette Details Spidey Suit Upgrades in Spider-Man: Homecoming

It only this past Friday we were enjoying what we thought would be the last Spider-Man: Homecoming teaser to exclusively center on Peter Parker's (Tom Holland) enhanced Spidey suit, made for him by his new friend Tony Stark. Now, Sony Pictures has dropped his new vignette that goes into even greater detail about the capabilities Spider-Man will now enjoy that his previous predecessors, who lacked the Tony Stark connection, could have only dreamed of...

The last time we checked in on writer/director Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther, Marvel had recently screened a small portion of it to some select journalists, and their reaction was more or less WOW.

Spider-Man: Homecoming Trailer Shows Off Spidey’s Suit

We’ve gotten a peek inside Spidey’s brand new, Tony Stark build suit before, but never like this. In this new international trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming, the suit is center focus. One of our favorite moments in this new trailer can be summed up in two words: web grenade. Tony Stark has really kitted Peter Parker (Tom Holland) out with the best Spidey suit we’ve ever seen. 

The new trailer actually takes us back to Spidey's racuous introduction in ...

More Monsters and Horror Coming in Season Two of Stranger Things

Season two of Stranger Things is going to be all hands on deck for the VFX team. Season one rekindled the excitement of 1980s era mastery of practical effects that was seriously amped up by digital techniques. The CGI was awesome and anyone who watched the series had at least one nightmare about the deadly demogorgon. As VFX supervisor Marc Kolbe told us, "What the Duffers saw [in season one] can be done digitally,...
