Sony Pictures just release the official trailer of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and watching it bring out a lot more questions than answers.
Like, why the hell did all those “Spider-People”, including Spider-Man 2099, attacking Mile Morales and Gwen Stacy? And why kind of threat would it take for all those “Spider-People” to come together? Also, why is it only Miles and Gwen, to some degree “Peter Parker,” are the only ones who doesn’t know what really is happening in the “multi-verse”? No matter what the answers are, it looks like Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is going to be a great film.
Miles Morales returns for the next chapter of the Oscar®-winning Spider-Verse saga, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. After reuniting with Gwen Stacy, Brooklyn’s full-time, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is catapulted across the Multiverse, where he encounters a team of Spider-People charged with protecting its very existence. But when the heroes clash on how to handle a new threat, Miles finds himself pitted against the other Spiders and must redefine what it means to be a hero so he can save the people he loves most.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is directed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers and Justin K. Thompson. Screenplay by Phil Lord & Christopher Miller and David Callaham. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse will be in theaters June 2, 2023.
It looks like we are getting one last Indiana Jones film from Harrison Ford, as Lucas Films release the official trailer of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. The 1 min 45 secs run time of the trailer seems short when you consider that not much is revealed in the trailer.
In the video, we can hear the voice of Indy’s old friend Sallah (played by John Rhys-Davies), asking if missed their old adventurous and dangerous life, then an old and retired ‘Prof’ Jones immediately replied “those days have come and gone.”
Trailer have all the element of a classic Indiana Jones film; the catchy music, the humor and the usual trip to an unknown Middle Eastern nation.
In 1969, American archaeologist and adventurer Indiana Jones lives against the backdrop of the Space Race. Jones is uneasy over the fact that the U.S. Government has recruited former Nazis to help beat the Soviet Union in the competition to make it to space. His goddaughter, Helena, accompanies him on his journey.[2][3] Meanwhile, Jürgen Voller, a NASA member and ex-Nazi involved with the moon-landing program, wishes to make the world into a better place as he sees fit.
This will be the 5th Indiana Jones film and at the age of 80, Harrison Ford looks great in the video and its unclear if this film will be used to expand the Indiana Jones franchise, so that new character can take over or explored.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is scheduled to be in theaters on June 30th 2023. Harrison Ford will reprise his role as the legendary archaeologist, it is directed by James Mangold and co-written by Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth and James Mangold.

Marvel just release the official trailer of Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3, which the studio first release at Brazil Comic Con.
The trailer (below) focuses on the origin story of Rocket and his Otter friend Lylla, we also saw a glimpse of how Will Poulter’s Adam Warlock looks like and Chukwudi Iwuji portrayal of the High Evolutionary, a scientist specializing in evolution and who in the comics is Rocket’s creator. We can also see that Gamora is back as well as a “beefy” Groot, similar to the one we saw in the Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special.
The tone of the film (or at least this new trailer), is giving a different jive from the previous GOTG films, since there are a number of instances in the trailer where we see the Guardians in tears and injured, of course there’s still the brand of comedy.
It has been reported that will be James Gunn last project with Marvel, since he will be moving to DC Studios as the co-chairpersons and CEOs, a position that he shares with Peter Safran.

The film is based on the Slam Dunk manga series written and illustrated by Inoue. The First Slam Dunk is scheduled to be released theatrically in Japan in December 2022.
The 74-second video initially show two kids playing basketball in the play ground, then quickly shows the five starting members of Shohoku High School – Sakuragi Hanamichi, Akagi Takenori, Miyagi Ryota, Rukawa Kaede, and Hisashi Mitsui – in a huddle and playing basketball, then a slam dunk before the clip ends.
Here’s the translated description of the video;
Movie “THE FIRST SLAM DUNK” released on December 3, 2022
Long Feature Film “THE FIRST SLAM DUNK”
Release in Japan: December 3 2022
[Work information]
Original story/screenplay/director: Takehiko Inoue
Director: Naoki Miyahara, Katsuhiko Kitada, Akio Ohashi, Yasuhiro Motoda, Fumihiko Suganuma, Yu Kamatani
Character design: Takehiko Inoue, Yasuyuki Ehara, CG director: Daiki Nakazawa, Animation director: Yasuyuki Ehara

The film will bring back most of the major character from the previous two Ant-man movies; Paul Rudd reprising his role as Scott Lang, a now adult Cassie played by Kathryn Newton with Evangeline Lilly as Hope van Dyne, and Michael Douglas (Hank Pym) with Michelle Pfeiffer as Janet van Dyne.
The trailer clearly shows the premise of the film where Cassie (Kathryn Newton) created a machine that “sends a signal down to the quantum realm” that advertently sends them all there. In the Quantum Realm, which is a totally different universe with its own laws of physics and wild life, and a microscopic civilization that’s more advanced than the “real” world they lived in.
We can also see a glimpse of MODOK, Bill Murray cast as an unknown villain and Jonathan Major’s Kang the Conqueror, who we first saw in Disney+ Loki series. We know that Kang is the next major MCU villain, so we can just assume that the “help” that Kang is asking from “Ant-man” is to escape the Quantum Realm into the “real” world.
Directed by Peyton Reed, Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania is set to release on on February 17th, 2023.

Here are the photos of Enola Holmes 2;
via Netflix;
Fresh off the triumph of solving her first case, Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown) follows in the footsteps of her famous brother, Sherlock (Henry Cavill), and opens her own agency — only to find that life as a female detective-for-hire isn’t as easy as it seems. Resigned to accepting the cold realities of adulthood, she is about to close shop when a penniless matchstick girl offers Enola her first official job: to find her missing sister. But this case proves to be far more puzzling than expected, as Enola is thrown into a dangerous new world — from London’s sinister factories and colorful music halls, to the highest echelons of society and 221B Baker Street itself. As the sparks of a deadly conspiracy ignite, Enola must call upon the help of friends — and Sherlock himself — to unravel her mystery. The game, it seems, has found its feet again!
Returning to reprise their roles are Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes, Louis Partridge as Tewkesbury, Susan Wokoma as Edith, Adeel Akhtar as Lestrade, and Helena Bonham-Carter as Enola’s mother Eudoria.
