FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM

In 2016 Writer J.K. Rowling invites you to return to the wizarding world!

Plot synopsis:
“The adventures of writer Newton Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) in 1920’s New York’s secret community of witches and wizards seventy years before Harry Potter reads his book in school.
Eccentric magizoologist Newt Scamander comes to New York (for a reason we won’t disclose) with his trusty weathered case. This case is one of those way-way-way-bigger-on-the-inside magical devices, and within are expansive habitats for a collection of rare and endangered magical creatures from Newt’s travels around globe. He discovers the American wizarding community is fearfully hiding from Muggles (who are called ‘No-Maj’ in the US) and the threat of public exposure is an even graver concern than in the UK (remember the Salem witch trials?). Fantastic Beasts is the story of what happens when this uniquely skilled English wizard travels to wiz-phobic America and a variety of his creatures, some quite dangerous,… get out of their case.”

And here’s the first official poster:

That case is a Pandora box, am not sure one should open it…

Check out the mesmerizing trailer of High-Rise, the upcoming drama thriller movie directed by Ben Wheatley and based on J.G. Ballard’s cult novel:

HIGH-RISE

Ever wanted something more? Join us at the high-rise…

Plot:
“London, 1975. Robert Laing (Tom Hiddleston) is a young doctor seduced by the lifestyle in a high-rise, an isolated community, cut off from the rest of society in their luxury tower block, and its creator, the architect Anthony Royal (Jeremy Irons). Taking up residence on the twenty-fifth floor, Laing discovers a world of complex loyalties, and also strikes up a relationship with Royal’s devoted aide Charlotte (Sienna Miller). After Laing befriends Richard Wilder (Luke Evans), a documentary filmmaker relegated to the second floor who is determined to provoke the class injustices inherent in the high-rise, a dangerous social situation develops and the high-rise eventually fragments into violent tribes.”

Sounds like Tom Hiddleston is going to deliver a great performance here. I am definitely impatient to see Ben Wheatley’s take on J.G. Ballard’s novel!

Here’s an earlier teaser poster:

Now on the run, Kubo joins forces with Monkey (Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Matthew McConaughey), and sets out on a thrilling quest to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known.

Apocalypse (Oscar Isaac), the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. Upon awakening after thousands of years, he is disillusioned with the world as he finds it and recruits a team of powerful mutants, including a disheartened Magneto (Michael Fassbender), to cleanse mankind and create a new world order, over which he will reign. As the fate of the Earth hangs in the balance, Raven (Jennifer Lawrence) with the help of Professor X (James McAvoy) must lead a team of young X-Men to stop their greatest nemesis and save mankind from complete destruction.”

Apocalypse may look like a rotten piece of meat, but he’s definitely a hell of a marvelous mutant! Do you think the X-Men stand a chance against such a mighty foe?

Only the strong will survive!

Plot synopsis:
“Since the dawn of civilization, En Sabah Nur aka Apocalypse (Oscar Isaac) was worshipped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible.

Will you dare to check out this new creepy motion poster of The Forest, the upcoming horror movie directed by Jason Zada and starring Natalie Dormer:

THE FORESTPlot synopsis:
“Rising with terrifying grandeur at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan, the legendary real-life Aokigahara Forest is the suspense-filled setting of the supernatural thriller. A young American woman, Sara (Natalie Dormer), journeys there in search of her twin sister, who has mysteriously disappeared. In the company of expatriate Aiden (Taylor Kinney), Sara enters the forest having been well warned to “stay on the path.” Determined to discover the truth about her sister’s fate, Sara will have to face the angry and tormented souls of the dead that prey on anyone who dares come near them. These malevolent spirits lying in wait for Sara at every turn will plunge her into a frightening darkness from which she must fight to save herself.”

Well if ghosts are haunting the forest I say it’s time to spray agent orange over it! I bet the defoliant which rose to infamy during the Vietnam war would help get rid of those evil spirits!

The film will be released on January 8, 2016.
:)

I’ve just spotted this new series of character posters of Star Wars 7 The Force Awakens, the upcoming epic science-fiction movie sequel directed by J.J. Abrams and starring John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Adam Driver, Harrison Ford, Oscaar Isaac, Domhnall Gleeson, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, and Anthony Daniels:

Plot synopsis:
“The Force Awakens is set approximately 30 years after the events of Return of the Jedi, and features new leads Finn (John Boyega), Rey (Daisy Ridley), and Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) alongside characters returning from previous Star Wars films.”

Yep, you’re right, the old woman behind Han Solo (Harrison Ford) is actually Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher).

Anyway, three earlier vintage posters:

There’s also a new international trailer with some new footage from the film:

Update – an additional poster:

You may watch below the official trailer of Anesthesia, the upcoming drama movie written and directed by Tim Blake Nelson and starring Kristen Stewart, Sam Waterston, Glenn Close, Tim Blake Nelson, Corey Stoll, Michael K. Williams, K. Todd Freeman, Mickey Sumner, Yul Vazquez, Gloria Reuben, Jessica Hecht, and Gretchen Mol:

ANESTHESIAPlot synopsis:
“A snowy New York City night, a beloved teacher, a shocking crime: this provocative drama pieces together the puzzle of a man’s life just before it changes forever. While on his way home one evening, Walter Zarrow (Sam Waterston), a popular Columbia University philosophy professor, is violently attacked on the street. Flash back one week, as actor-director Tim Blake Nelson traces the domino effect of events that led up to this seemingly senseless assault. Along the way, hidden connections between a seemingly disparate group of people—including a self-destructive student (Kristen Stewart), a hard-drinking suburban housewife (Gretchen Mol), and a desperate junkie (K. Todd Freeman)—emerge, forming a complex, engrossing mosaic of lost souls united by tragedy. The stellar ensemble cast includes Glenn Close and Michael K. Williams.”

From the trailer it feels like a live-action and darker version of Anomalisa… Life is too complicated for some people… Maybe they should just sit back and enjoy…

And here’s the film’s poster:

ANESTHESIA
