Along with giving us a [...]
https://youtu.be/IqrgxZLd_gE For the second December in a row, Adam Driver co-stars in the movie I want to see the most. Based on the novel about two 17th Century Jesuit missionaries that go on a search for their mentor who's gone missing in Japan (where Christianity is outlawed and persecuted), Silence is the realization of director Martin [...]
Hold on to your butts. By the looks of things, it'd be fitting for Samuel L. Jackson to crib his famous warning from Jurassic Park and apply it here. In this first full-fledged trailer for Kong: Skull Island (following a previous teaser), we not only get our first extended look at the latest digitized version [...]
