Marvel has announced another untitled film to be slotted into its long-term release schedule, the third such project pencilled in for 2016 and 2017.

The announcement confirms the studio’s commitment to a two-films-per-year output, with the film in question slated to arrive in US cinemas on 8 July 2016.

Well, well, what kind of a film could we be looking at?

As for what these unnamed films might turn out to be, there’s plenty of room for speculation. We know that Marvel is keen on a Doctor Strange movie, while there has been plenty of online clamour for a Black Panther…

On July 3^rd, The Lone Ranger comes riding into theaters, and if you want a sneak peak at a clip before that happens, I’ve got one right here for you.

And I still don’t know what to make of this film, but I’ve decided to go to the theater and enjoy it for what it is, which is likely silly, almost senseless, low plot, high action fun. And based on this clip, well, see for yourself the senseless part. But fun non-the-less.

Roland Emmerich continues to drip-feed information about the forthcoming Independence Day 2, confirming that Jeff Goldblum will return for the long-awaited sequel.

During a Q&A with Movies.com, the director and screenwriter revealed that Goldblum would be reprising his role as jittery computer hot-shot, David Levinson, alongside fellow returnee Bill Pullman.

Well la de da, I’m dancing for joy. I still say the film will be nothing without Will Smith. Maybe I’ll be surprised, eh?

This film could be a fun fantasy flick. I still need to see the first one, which I plan to do before this film comes out. It does have Nathan Fillion in it, which is always fun, and apparently it also has Stanley Tucci, which nearly makes it a must see.

Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters continues the young demigod’s epic journey to fulfill his destiny. To save their world, Percy and his friends must find the fabled and magical Golden Fleece. Embarking on a treacherous odyssey into the uncharted waters of the Sea of Monsters (known to humans as the Bermuda Triangle), they battle terrifying…

For those who don’t know, 100 days is a longer-than-average time to shoot a film, and Webb finished it off with a flourish by posting a brief video of Andrew Garfield perched atop a building, looking over the city.  Take that, random citizen with a cell phone camera.

Yada yada. I really don’t care about The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but I know some of you, my dear readers do, and so I suffer through and post stuff about it for you. So here you go. Here’s the video:

Hey guys, I wanted to let you know that we had to move our start time for the show back an hour to 7:30 PM Central Time. We’ll have a guest with us, and I have some follow up on Man of Steel (no, I’m not going to hate on it too much more) and some funny Superman stuff in general. Plus, I’ve got a couple of trailers lined up for a new edition of TrailerByte (if you don’t know what TrailerByte is, shame on you, that means you didn’t listen to last week’s show!).

And of course, we’ll also be talking about Monsters University. As always, pop some popcorn, pull up a chair, fire up your browser…

Pixar has become a bit of a household name these days. When we think of cute, family friendly films that are well made, have a great message, and are fun for all ages, Pixar is what we think of. I would contend even that the likes of the films we have seen from Pixar until very recently have been far better than anything Disney ever put out.

There are really 3 things Pixar is known for, two of those are the bulk of the ingredients that make a good Pixar animated film in my opinion.

1. A Really, REALLY good and compelling story.
2. A really good message behind the story, well executed…

Pacific Rim is coming and we can either go big or go home I guess. I’ve been a little hesitant about this film, I haven’t seen a lot before this to indicate that there may be something more than smash ‘em crash ‘em robot stuff. But this trailer does do a little bit more to add a human element to it, for me at least. Or maybe I’m just in an accepting mood right now.

I don’t know, I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt. I was wanting and expecting to like Man of Steel, and it turned out to be not much more than smash ‘em crash ‘em, so maybe if I’m just seeing things backwards it’s a good…

Legendary Pictures and its chief Thomas Tull have a long relationship with Warner Bros. While the production company was founded in 2000, in 2005 Legendary made a deal with WB to produce up to 40 features over seven years. You might have heard of their first collaboration: Batman Begins. In fact, Legendary has had a hand in WB’s biggest superhero films: Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, as well as Superman Returns and Man of Steel,300, and Watchmen. Legandary has also been part of another little WB success story: theHangover films.

Now the deal between Leegendary and Warner Bros. has…
