THE DINOSAURS (2026): The Things I Liked…

7 Comments

I enjoyed the first episode of The Dinosaurs, a documentary about the evolutionary journey of dinosaurs, so much that I had to pause at least twice just to give thanks.

And, yes, after watching all four episodes, I may now unrealistically want Morgan Freeman to be the voice of all my bedtime stories moving forward. Nonetheless, Freeman’s super narration is only part of what makes the film noteworthy.

Executive produced by Steven Spielberg, it’s no wonder the special effects, story structure, and editing stand out for all the right reasons. 

The wonderful characters and serious edge-of-your-seat action also worked to keep me engaged throughout, to the point where 

The Dinosaurs is officially one of my favourite history lessons, brought to life on film. It comes second only to Colliding Dreams (2015), the history of the Israel/Palestine conflict. 

Absolutely watch The Dinosaurs for all the reasons mentioned above, and meet the extraordinary monsters we love, while also feeling grateful that we didn’t have to share the daily battle for survival on Earth with them.

Happy Film Loving,

THE DINOSAURS (2026): New Dinosaur Documentary Starring Morgan Freeman…

Read my spoiler-free movie review of The Dinosaurs (2026).

Executive produced by Steven Spielberg and featuring Morgan Freeman as the narrator, The Dinosaurs is a new documentary that dives into the evolutionary journey of dinosaurs.

We can expect a close look at their origins, ecological significance, diversification, and eventual extinction.

How smart to have Freeman as the narrator, and to mention Spielberg’s involvement just before the Shark’s demise.

I’m ready for my prehistoric science/history lesson. Are you?

The Dinosaurs Release Dates: March 6th, 2026, Netflix…

The subject of Steven Spielberg’s latest sci-fi film, Disclosure Day, is what happens when several humans know with certainty, and can show you that aliens are among us.

Emily Blunt, Josh O’Connor, Colin Firth and Colman Domingo are among the key cast

Excellent is the word for this trailer. The cherry on top, for me, in addition to this stellar cast, is that Colin Firth is back!

This one is officially going on my list of blockbusters to watch over the summer of 2026. I suspect you feel the same, yes?

Chyril Paulann, Eve Hewson, Jim Parrack, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, Michael Gaston, Gabby Beans, Swanmy Sampaio, Elliot Villar, Chris Silcox, Mckenna Bridger, Noah Robbins, Tommy Martinez and Amelie McKendry also star.

Disclosure Day Release Dates: June 12th, 2026 (US)…

Apple TV+’s new trailer is Mr. Scorsese, a documentary/biography about legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese.

Featuring the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Margot Robbie, Daniel Day-Lewis, Robert De Niro, Steven Spielberg, Cate Blanchett, Sharon Stone, Jodie Foster and more, Mr. Scorsese is a five-part mini-series that somehow feels like an early and personal Christmas present to yours truly.

‘Sign me up for at least 5 hours of this, please!‘

For a documentary about a person who’s exceptional at putting movies together, this trailer had to be good, and I feel that it is. In fact, the pacing and editing had me thinking of the great artwork in The Irishman (2019) teaser trailer.

I look forward to hearing more from Mr. Scorsese and everything those who know and love him most have to say.

Are you also looking forward to this one? I hear Scorsese has a great cameo in Seth Rogen’s The Studio (2025).

Mr. Scorsese Release Dates: October 17th, 2025, Apple TV+…

THE FABELMANS (2022): New Trailer From Steven Spielberg, Starring Michelle Williams, Seth Rogen, Paul Dano, Gabriel LaBelle…

4 Comments

It’s that time again. Time for a new epic-looking movie from one of Hollywood’s most celebrated.

Starring Michelle Williams, Gabriel LaBelle, Paul Dano and Seth Rogen; The Fabelmans is set in post-World War II era Arizona in a family where a young man named Sammy turns to film, to help him see the truth after a shattering family secret.

I was already interested in watching how it is that films helped young Sammy. But now, knowing that this is the story of Spielberg’s own family, I just have to learn more about the origin story of one of the world’s most respected directors.

There’s also the brilliant cast to consider, particularly the ever-consistent Dano and Williams.

Additional supporting cast includes Jeannie Berlin, Julia Butters, Robin Bartlett, Keeley Karsten, Judd Hirsch, Nicolas Cantu and Isabelle Kusman.

The Fabelmans Release Dates: November 23rd, 2022 (US); January 27th, 2023…
