The upcoming standalone (at least for the time being) blockbusters between now and the end of 2016… Theyll add to blockbuster schedules already groaning under the weight of comic book movies and franchises.
At least not yet.
And amazingly, most of the plot has been kept under wraps thus far.
Its impossible to review a film on the basis of that of course.
Its a film that unites Dwayne Johnson with hisJourney 2: The Mysterious Islanddirector Brad Peyton.
It only cost $100m to make after all.
But a movie star and a high summer release date get it over the line.
Plus theres something so deliciously old fashioned about it.
One can hope, eh?
In particular Riley, the young girl at the heart of the story.
Pan: July 17th 2015
We think this one can sneak in.
Its one of those films that promises to tell us the untold story which never seems to go well.
Thus, they start attacking the planet Earth, based on videogame strategies.
Thatd be Adam Sandler, playing a 1980s video game champion.
The director of the film?
Thatd be Chris Columbus, ofPercyJackson,Home Alone,and the first two Harry Potters vintage.
Thats more promising, with Josh Gad, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage and Brian Cox in the ensemble.
The inclusion of Sandler though doesnt bode well.
But you never know.
This may be a turning point.
Its understood that the film has been substantially retooled since Pixar took the decision to delay it.
Then wed highly recommend you invest in a copy.
The film comes courtesy of Ridley Scott, who opted to direct this one overPrometheus 2.
Promisingly, Drew Goddard has penned the screenplay.
But do read the book anyway.
On his tale is the citys best cop, a rabbit by the name of Lt Judy Hops.
But as it turns out, shes going to be facing a problem or two of her own.
How that plays out on the screen were yet to see, though.
We used to bathe in these in the 1990s.
Thats all we know thus far.
Just know that sequels are on the horizon if it pans out.
Joby Harold has penned the screenplay.
Geostorm: October 21st 2016
Warner Bros again, this time teaming up withStargateandIndependence Dayco-writer/producer Dean Devlin.
And then theres another man, whos trying to stop the president being assassinated.
What could go wrong?
Shes joined by Maui, a demi-god, reported to be voiced by Dwayne Johnson.
And again, its animation leading the way with standalone blockbusters.
