This was an interesting set, hitting on all sorts of themes (super-heroes, Disney, diversity, action) that someone thought would appeal to their anticipated Captain Marvel audience.
- Best of Enemies — A black civil rights activist, a KKK member, and the odd friendship they developed. Interesting, but not my cuppa.
- Hobbs and Shaw — If you want a Fast & Furious branded film with Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham as frenemies against an evil Idris Elba … well, this is the film you’ve been waiting for.
- Spider-Man: Far from Home — Spidey in Venice, vs Mysterio, with Nick Fury in the mix. Yeah, I’ll probably watch this.
- Rocketman — If you’ve been waiting for a biopic of Elton John, this looks pretty good.
- Late Night — Emma Thompson is an aging female night-time talk show host on the verge of being canceled. Mindy Kaling is the unconventional non-white-guy comedy writer (and director and writer of the film). Hilarity ensues. But not for me.
- Godzilla: King of the Monsters — Okay, this looks pretty awesome, not least because it really deals with the helplessness of humanity in the face of kaiju battles. Also, King Ghidorah! Might see this one in theaters (I enjoyed King Kong last year).
- Dark Phoenix — This looks terribly mediocre. And I say that as someone who really enjoyed X-Men: First Class.
- Dumbo — An elephant with forward-facing eyes still looks weird. I trust all the talent to do something remarkable, but I’m still not sold.
- Frozen 2 — The trailer looks good and certainly makes me want to see the movie. Will I? Who can say?
