Rick’s Met his Match in Season 7 of The Walking Dead
Yesterday we shared this brutal promo for season 7 of The Walking Dead. It showed the direct aftermath of season 6's finale, moments after Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) killed one of the show's longstanding characters.

The First Power Rangers Trailer has Dropped
Is it possible to make a darker, serious Power Rangers? Director Dean Israelite (Project Almanac) looks like he’s managed to do just that, at least as far as this first trailer reveals. The film had its New York Comic-Con presentation, where Israelite confirmed that Goldar, Rita Repulsa’s infamous henchman who dogged the Rangers in the ’90s-era series, will be in the film.
The basic conceit of Power Rangers is simple: five teenagers are granted superpowers after they come into contact with some alien material...

For example, Lionsgate is unveiling a sneak peek of John Wick: Chapter 2, the sequel to the 2014 action thriller starring Keanu Reeves that caught audiences off guard...
Watch a new Keeping up With the Joneses Clip
Super spies, meet super schmoes. Okay, maybe that's not entirely fair to the Gaffneys, an ordinary suburban couple played by Zach Galifianakis and Isla Fisher, but it's not too far off. In director Greg Mottola's comedy caper, the Gaffney's find that their new neighbors, the Joneses, played by Jon Hamm and Gal Gadot, are pretty tough competition. Especially when they find out these offensively attractive people are actually covert operatives.
Of course this means the Gaffneys need to be plunged into the dangerous (but sexy!) world of the Joneses...

Wolverine 3 Director James Mangold Shares Title, Poster, Page of Script
What did we when we wanted updates on movies before the age of social media? Oh right, we waited for set visit interviews to run in major magazines and on websites, which most often wouldn't run until the promotional window opened a few weeks before the film came out. Obviously times have changed.
