Sit back and grab some popcorn: four trailers that set expectations sky-high for the productions trickling in through the last quarter of the year.
2016 was not a year for many blockbusters — but the good news is that there is always something better ahead. 2017 arrived with a stockpile of great movies, and expectations remain high as we trickle into the last quarter of the year. Sit back and grab some popcorn as I take you through the most awesome YT trailers of upcoming productions.
The first edition was a huge success, and the trailer for the sequel leaves us expecting a great deal. Eggsy (Taron Egerton) and Harry (Colin Firth) are reunited in a James Bond-style, action-packed thriller full of gadget-aided stunts. The second official trailer is well worth your two minutes.
After a long absence, Blade Runner returns to the big screen in a grand way — I genuinely gaped through the trailer. With Denis Villeneuve behind the camera, the director of the 2017 Oscar-nominated ‘Arrival’, I have high hopes that his style will live up to every expectation.
Slated for release in October, Thor: Ragnarok is a race toward Infinity War — set to be Marvel’s most star-studded movie yet. Here, Thor is stranded on a distant planet and squared up against his former Avengers ally, the Hulk. Have a look at the official trailer and tell me what you think.
The next chapter in the Star Wars trilogy — I cannot wait to see it on the big screen. Scheduled for a December release in the UK, I am glad the franchise tried something different this time: Disney gave us a glimpse behind the scenes as part of the campaign. The trailer itself is every bit as grand.
The expectations are very high, and every new release — especially in the superhero genre — seems to push the bar upward once again. It is exciting to me, and I am pretty sure you will feel exactly the same after viewing the trailers.
