The holiday box office is in full swing, but Hollywood has its gaze focused on next Summer, and beyond.
There have been some very interesting trailers out over the last couple of days...
First up is Jupiter Ascending, a far-flung sci-fi flick from Lana and Andy Wachowski (The Matrix, Cloud Atlas), with Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum as some kind of satyr-looking super soldier. Moments inspire a Fifth Element trepidation, but this is undeniably fascinating and could work - the Wachowskis have a vision, make no mistake...
Then, for my money, the big winner - Godzilla, the long anticipated follow-up to director Gareth Edwards' Monsters - probably the best movie per-budget-dollar I've seen in years. If you've never seen it, seek it out. I just hope he can deliver as much inventiveness now that he has a completely unhinged budget. But friends, based on this trailer, it appears he's taken full advantage of the opportunity. This sprawling canvas (with Bryan Cranston!) looks like it will forever make us forget both Roland Emmerich's effort as well as Cloverfield - this Godzilla looks like the behemoth to beat in a post Pacific Rim universe - bring on next May!
