I mean, sure, I get that they’re not reviving Brisco County, Jr. But they could! And even if it’s just for a season, it’s still in Netflix’s wheelhouse.

Neflix decides that if they could sell SHE-RA, they can sell HE-MAN.
Also animated. Apparently this HE-MAN will be computer-animated. No idea what idiom it’s going to be in, though.

The IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON spoilerific Netflix trailer.
Said IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON presented in link form because STUPID SPOILERS. Seriously, I’m not a no-spoilers fanatic — but you don’t have to give away the entire flick in the trailer. Just let us think that it’s the Obvious Thing and then surprise us when we watch.
Anyway, the movie does look interesting, and it comes out September 27th. On Netflix, so check it out there. And check out the trailer at your own risk. Seriously, it tells you the whole damn plot.
THE IRISHMAN Netflix teaser trailer.
THE IRISHMAN looks real promising. It’s going to be a organized crime film starring Joe Pesci, Al Pacino, and Robert De Niro, with Martin Scorsese directing. As EsotericCD noted on Twitter, this is gonna be either an epic get for Netflix, an epic bomb, or possibly both.
Hrm. Zack Snyder doing zombie heist flick “Army of the Dead.”
Army of the Dead is described as taking place during “a zombie outbreak in Las Vegas, during which a man assembles a group of mercenaries to take the ultimate gamble, venturing into the quarantined zone to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted.” Assuming one takes seriously the premise*, this doesn’t sound like a bad movie concept. I’m curious as to how Snyder’s going to do it.
Out on Netflix, eventually.

*I don’t mean the premise of zombies, generally, although certainly other people might be forgiven for wanting the era of zombie movies to be over. I speak of the premise that people are willing to handle or buy valuables stolen from a zombie outbreak zone. Or that ‘stealing’ even means anything, anymore. Most zombie movies assume the end of global civilization, if only because otherwise the poor shambling things would get mowed down en masse.

Kind of surprised this hadn’t happened yet, actually. Not necessarily the Russo Brothers, mind you. But somebody:

My review of ‘Rim of the World.’
Honestly, my Tweet earlier will do.
Admittedly it might have started a little slow, but the kids had a ball making The Rim of the World and I enjoyed watching them in this movie. It’s on Netflix now if you want to watch a bunch of kids get their 1980s movie nostalgia on. I certainly did.

Continue reading Quote of the Day, Netflix Wants Those Eyes On Screens, Man edition.If the movie Rim of the World, which premiered on Netflix this week, looks a little familiar to you, that’s on purpose. It’s the story of four kids, thrown together at summer camp in the middle of an alien invasion, faced with the task of carrying the one object that can defeat the aliens across war-torn Los Angeles. It’s a fun ride through childhood friendship forged amid killer aliens and saving the world. Sound like a 1980s-style adventure, like what Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment used to make? Well, good.
The ‘I Am Mother’ Netflix trailer.
Buddy of mine sent me this the other day. I Am Mother looks interesting:
Mind you, I suspect a twist. Or several. Or that the entire trailer is a lie, which is entirely possible these days. It’s so difficult to maintain tactical surprise in entertainment, these days: the reason why the MCU went to such trouble to do so is because they absolutely had to. Remember Terminator 2? I think it was Honest Trailers who pointed out that the great revelation in that film would have had an impact like a hammer if only they didn’t blurt it out in the trailers.
Anyway, I Am Mother is out June 7th.
