With Brosnan playing a character not too dissimilar to Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams.

Yay, they remade Flatliners... :roll:
Nice to see Ellen Page is still working I guess.

I can't believe how awful that looks. The CG, the music at the end...the entire thing is just so wrong.

They had the trailer with Baby Driver. There was an audible collective groan with a handful of laughs. Looks awful.

The one (and sole) thing going for the trailer is that it doesn't follow the recent trend of using a mournful cover version of an 80s or 90s song.

Before I watched it, I would have bet money on it doing so.

Lucky, starring Harry Dean Stanton, David Lynch and a whole host of others. Directed by John Carroll Lynch.

Holy cow - I never imagined Stanton would be taking on a leading role comparable to Paris, Texas at age 90! The film looks like a charmer.

The Malick- and Reggio-produced Awaken. The description sounds identical to the Qatsi trilogy - and the last few shots give it a (mercifully slight) "what if phones but too much" vibe - but it's undeniably gorgeous and rapturous even in a short spot like this. I'm a sucker for this kinda thing, though.

The next film from Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani, directors of very 70s giallo-styled horror films Amer and The Strange Colour of Your Body's Tears has been released. The gunshot teaser trailer (continuing a trend from the gunshot teaser from The Strange Colour of Your Body's Tears) and the full trailer for Let The Corpses Tan suggest that this will be also be 70s inflected, but in a crime thriller or perhaps modern western genre. Though it looks like there will still be black gloved killers in there! It apparently has also got Elina Löwensohn (who played the title character in the classic 1990s vampire film, Nadja) in the cast too.

Its got a great poster too:

Jean-Patrick Manchette has been woefully treated by filmmakers so far, so this looks a promising improvement. Alain Delon made a couple of half-hearted thrillers, obviously stripped of their novels' Marxist bents, and Sean Penn utterly ruined The Prone Gunman with his need to be Sean Penn. Cattet and Forzani seem a better fit, aesthetically at least. Interesting giallo/spaghetti western mashup vibe in the trailers.

There are four Manchettes in English translation, mostly later works. All worth looking up. His books were slim and vicious and possessed of that weird Gallic streak that Simenon and Dard and Jonquet have. Serpent's Tail and NYRB cover the four between them - The Prone Gunman, Fatale, Three To Kill, and The Mad and the Bad (an oddly bland title compared the French Ô dingos, ô châteaux, a play on the Rimbaud, and I suppose a reference to RD Laing, but it comes off like the name a daytime soap set in fifties Hollywood. Cuckoos and Castles might have been spiritually more apt, though lacking in poetical détournement). His unfinished final work is coming in translation. Hopefully this film prompts a translation of the novel.

I'd not realised this until Jasper Sharp mentioned it in this month's edition of Sight and Sound, where he reviews Antiporno by Sion Sono and Wet Woman In The Wind, but apparently there was a five film 'reboot' in 2016 of Nikkatsu's Roman Porno line, also including White Lily by Hideo Nakata, Dawn of the Felines and Aroused by Gymnopedies

Needless to say, all of the above trailers are NSFW!

Here's a teaser trailer for a film I'm sure you all want to see: God’s Not Dead: A Light In The Darkness. The third film in the series!

The inspirational drama centers on Pastor Dave (producer David A.R. White) and the unimaginable tragedy he endures after a deadly fire rips through his St. James Church at Hadleigh University. School leaders use the tragedy to push the congregation off campus, forcing the church to defend its rights and bringing together estranged brothers for a reunion that opens old wounds and forces them to address the issues that pulled them apart.

A Light In The Darkness sounds like a rather awkwardly ironic title for a film about a devastating fire! But if there's one thing the God's Not Dead series is comfortable with, its awkward irony! (Though they really have to eventually release the series on DVD in a "Holy Trinity" set!)

Hopefully this will resolve the cliffhanger at the end of God's Not Dead 2 when Pastor Dave, after having beaten all the unbelievers into sharing his point of view for a second time gets led out of his church, arrested by the cops for...something (probably just closure).

(Oh gosh, its going to involve a prison-buff Pastor Dave being called upon to pick up his Bible again in the manner of an action hero isn't it?)

Not quite a film I guess, but a trailer just came out for Steven Soderbergh HBO limited series Mosaic. Watch it here.
