Produced by J.J. Abrams, directed by Dan Trachtenberg and starring John Goodman, 10 Cloverfield Lane is an interesting  new Sci-fi movie.

With the word Cloverfield in the title, we can assume it’s safe to guess that what’s ‘coming’ is monsters/aliens, for this is a sequel of the 2008 movie Cloverfield.

The question now is, will that mad girl on a crutch actually open the door? For the purposes of an entertaining film, probably. However, on the other hand, what type of lunatic must one be to go outside sans weapons and to meet the unexplained when one can barely move?

John Gallagher Jr. and Mary Elizabeth Winstead also star.

Release Date(s): March 11th, 2016 (US)

The trailer for Star Wars Episode 7 – The Force Awakens, has landed and John Boyega pays a…

‘Epic looking’ is the phrase, and featuring great trailer music, especially at the beginning. Something tells me that writer/director J.J. Abrams is going to make serious fans very proud indeed.

Time for me to get moving and watching the previous films if I don’t want to be completely clueless for what is likely the biggest film event of the year, if not of all time.

STAR WARS EPISODE 7 – THE FORCE AWAKENS (2015): I May Just Feel It

I love movies, but I do confess that there are some highly regarded films I’ve never watched – and a few more I may never seriously consider watching. Unfortunately, all Star Wars films have always fallen into this category.

The truth is, fantasy is simply not my favourite genre. In fact, I was quite sure I’d probably never get to watch a single Star Wars film. Unless…
…I met a really impassioned fan who somehow finally managed to convince me to put my aversion to fantasy movies aside.

What I didn’t count on was that, said fan might just be new Star Wars writer/director J.J. Abrams.

I didn’t actually meet him, by the way. However, I have seen the first 60 seconds of the new Star Wars Episode 7 – The Force Awakens teaser trailer.

I’m making no promises, of course. But when that next trailer does arrive, attention, I will certainly pay.

Happy Film Loving,
