Many new trailers unveiled over the last few days/weeks. Including a bajillion Force Awakens trailers, although I’ve left those off because I’ve been avoiding them (it would be nice if some of the movie was a surprise on Friday). Anyway, here are a few trailers for interesting-looking upcoming movies…

INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE

I kind of loved the original Independence Day. Haven’t watched it in years, but I thought it was big, bombastic, funny and quite, quite silly. I can’t wait to see this!

STAR TREK: BEYOND

This looks extremely action-packed. Which could be fun. I’ve enjoyed the re-booted franchise, although I don’t get all of the references to the original series (I always far preferred Star Wars…).

BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE

Well, yeah. This is probably going to be huge. And I’m cautiously optimistic that it’ll live up to expectations. Darker Batman and Superman? Eh, I actually prefer the bleaker image over the all-American Supes, or campy/lighter Bats. I wonder how much of the world they’ll destroy this time…?

CAPTAIN AMERICA 3: CIVIL WAR, Pt.1

Of course I’m interested in this. I’ve really enjoyed the previous two Cap movies, and the Iron Man and Avengers movies.

BIG SHORT

Something a little different, but Michael Lewis is one of my favourite authors (of any genre), so I’m very much looking forward to this. (Lewis also wrote the books behind Moneyball and The Blind Side.)

HIGH-RISE

Haven’t read Ballard’s novel, but I do want to. This looks great, too.

NOW YOU SEE ME 2

The first Now You See Me movie was a surprisingly fun film. I’m intrigued to see how they follow it up.
