Sony accidentally uploaded the entire movie Khali the Killer to YouTube instead of the trailer. The comments are great

Trailer gave the whole plot away. Pass.

Stanton looks pretty amazing at 90.

Slice, which looks, in a word, awful

That's a shame about Slice. I was hoping it would be enjoyable in a campy sort of way (and maybe it still will be), but those special effects...?

Saulnier's Hold the Dark

Words cannot describe how unhappy I feel about Netflix getting Hold the Dark.

Mary Poppins Returns-- I legit thought Lin Manuel Miranda was Eddie Marsan til the end credits

Sebastián Silva's Tyrel

This looks interesting: Dare To Stop Us, dramatising the behind the scenes goings on of the creation of Kôji Wakamatsu's pink films of the late 1960s/early 1970s.

Detective Pikachu has its own thread here

Here is the brief teaser trailer for the other interesting looking sci-fi film that appeared at Toronto Film Festival this year along with Claire Denis' High Life: the Swedish film Aniara (NSFW), which apparently according to the Film Comment podcast covering the Toronto Film Festival is supposedly a bit like what would happen if 'Wall-E mixed with the mall from Dawn of the Dead', with a group of passengers on a spaceship devoted to their every comfort slowly coming to terms with the idea that they may not make it to their final destination. Here's another brief clip.

Sounds a bit like Passengers too

EDIT that teaser is NSFW

My apologies, I just noticed the wobbly mirror part! I actually still have Passengers in my to watch pile, so have to look it out.

Apparently Aniara was previously adapted as an opera for Swedish television in 1960!

Move over, Instant Family, there’s a new contender for “worst piece of marketing ever” in town. This played in front of my showing of Green Book today and it left the audience in conniptions, which in hindsight I should have read as a bad omen. I cannot believe this series of movies can get the likes of Bryce Dallas Howard to star

Home Alone:Family Reunion.

I want this to be real...

Culken could actually pull off the old man with the shovel nowadays...

Avengers: Endgame

Supposedly this is three hours long in its current form, if you weren’t already convinced

They might as well go all out and keep that run time or if need be shoot up to 3 1/2 hours. The Return of the King theatrical cut was 3 hours and 20 minutes and it did just fine to speak modestly. Plus there'd be no problem for Disney/Marvel to commandeer so many screens at any one multiplex as is routine for some time now and I highly doubt there'd be any complaints that it's "too long". They have so many characters to wrap up as well supporting characters getting thrown in across the entire MCU on top of setting up the next phase and introducing even more new characters.
