Check Out the Full-Length Trailer for Fuller House

The first full-length trailer for Netflix’s Fuller House is here, transporting us back to the ‘90s – an era that seems so much more sane, even if at the time it surely didn't.

Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber visited Ellen this morning and following a discussion with the talk show icon, shared an exclusive new clip. The trailer reunites most of the original Tanner clan (plus Kimmy Gibbler) and welcomes a few new faces (Kimmy’s daughter and DJ’s sons to mention but a few).

The Jungle Book Super Bowl Breakthrough Spot Now Online

Did you catch the cool "breakthrough" Super Bowl spot for The Jungle Book? If you missed it, Walt Disney Pictures has brought it online, and it does a great job of furthering interest in director Jon Favreau’s upcoming live-action take on Rudyard Kipling’s classic tale. It's a pretty nifty fit to create a 3D feel to a teaser that's actually not. Check it out here. What's more, there's also a new full-length trailer,

Super Bowl 50: X-Men: Apocalypse Spot

X-Men: Apocalypse got in on the Super Bowl ad extravaganza in a big, scary way. In what appears to be the biggest, boldest X-Men movie yet, director Bryan Singer and titular villain Oscar Isaac are bringing the pain in this appropriately apocalyptic Super Bowl spot.

Pitting the ancient mutant Apocalypse against the younger versions of our favorite X-men, including Sophie Turner as Jean Grey, Tye Sheridan as Cyclops, and Alexandra Shipp as Storm, X-Men Apocalypse follows the theme of a lot of the major superhero films this year,

Super Bowl 50: Jason Bourne is Back

The team behind Bourne 5 has kept the film as mysterious as the skills the titular hero woke up having in the very first movie. The return of Matt Damon to the title role, along with The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum director Paul Greengrass, meant that whatever the film was going to be,

Super Bowl 50: 10 Cloverfield Lane Spot

It was less than a month ago that J.J. Abrams' production company Bad Robot revealed the existence of a film no one was anticipating. Now, with a Super Bowl 50 spot that pours on the intrigue (without revealing a thing, really) 10 Cloverfield Lane is officially vexing. Starring John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and John Gallagher Jr., 10 Cloverfield Lane's latest spot at least hints at the return of the beast from the original Cloverfield,

Super Bowl 50: Independence Day: Resurgence Trailer

It was 20 years ago when Independence Day first blew up the White House in one of the most iconic Super Bowl spots of all time, so it was fitting, if predictable, that 20th Century Fox dropped Independence Day: Resurgence during last night's Super Bowl and once again destroyed much of America. The aliens are back in what appears to be an even more pissed off mood than the first time around.

The New International Trailer for Gods of Egypt is Deliciously Over the Top

Director Alex Proyas's Gods of Egypt is one of those films that seems to revel in its' own absurdity. And we don't mean that pejoratively. Proyas is an ambitious director, as his work on Dark City, I, Robot and Knowing proves. The man clearly loves the weird and wild side of storytelling, and has infused his sci-fi narratives with genuine passion.
