After all, this is basically a dream-team project — a good source material, a great pair of directors behind the camera (Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who should be working on Spider-Verse instead of bringing another book to the screen), a swell screenwriter (Drew Goddard), and […]

]]> Bug out with Emma Stone in the ‘Bugonia’ trailer https://vanyaland.com/2025/08/28/bug-out-with-emma-stone-in-the-bugonia-trailer/ Thu, 28 Aug 2025 19:05:34 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10042268 Honestly, it makes a ton of sense that Yorgos Lanthimos would remake Jang Jun-Hwan’s Save the Green Planet. Not only is it perfect for Lanthimosian comedy, but that 2003 South Korean sci-fi comedy was prescient in a way that very few films are lucky enough to be. We live, after all, in an era where its plot wouldn’t seem particularly out of place on the New York Times front page — a conspiracy theorist kidnapping a CEO because they think […]

]]> Get radical with the new ‘One Battle After Another’ trailer https://vanyaland.com/2025/07/24/get-radical-with-the-new-one-battle-after-another-trailer/ Thu, 24 Jul 2025 18:37:23 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10042074 Who’s ready for a brand-spanking-new Paul Thomas Anderson movie in just over two months from now? We are, and if you’re not, well, go back and watch Boogie Nights or The Master again. Seriously though, One Battle After Another looks like a blast and a half — wacky-ass Sean Penn shenanigans, Leo DiCaprio with heavy weaponry, Beyonce on the soundtrack — what more can you really ask for? Aside from it being September, like, right now, we mean. Anyway, Warner […]

]]> The ‘Predator: Badlands’ trailer goes full synthetic https://vanyaland.com/2025/07/21/the-predator-badlands-trailer-goes-full-synthetic/ Mon, 21 Jul 2025 16:54:14 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10042039 As you might have guessed from its first teaser, Elle Fanning’s character in Predator: Badlands is the new link between the Predator and Alien franchises. She is, in fact, a Weyland-Yutani synth, and it seems she’ll be hanging on our Predator protagonist’s back for much of the movie (and Gizmodo points out that the film’s working title — what a studio/production will call a feature when it’s still under wraps — was “Backpack”). Honestly, we’re here for this Yoda/Luke relationship […]

]]> Watch the first trailer for PT Anderson’s ‘One Battle After Another’ https://vanyaland.com/2025/03/27/watch-the-first-trailer-for-pt-andersons-one-battle-after-another/ Thu, 27 Mar 2025 17:18:51 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10041057 If Paul Thomas Anderson’s good at two things, they’re “Making Damn Good Movies” and “Setting Studio Money Ablaze.” Those things can be incongruous at times, much like they were for Licorice Pizza and Inherent Vice, but they’re always fucking experiences that we just don’t have a ton of at the movies anymore. Enter One Battle After Another, a $130 million riff on a Pynchon novel featuring Leo Dicaprio doing madcap shit over three hours. Seriously, reading about this thing’s test […]

Wouldn’t it make sense that, given that it’s on every man’s mind all the time, they’d be hyped for more sword-and-sandal action? Still, it’s true: People are fucking stoked to see Paul Mescal, Pedro […]

]]> Sean Baker’s Palme-winning ‘Anora’ gets a trailer https://vanyaland.com/2024/07/15/sean-bakers-palme-winning-anora-gets-a-trailer/ Mon, 15 Jul 2024 18:39:56 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10038973 One thing that has given us genuine hope over the last few years is just how fucking strange Cannes has gotten with its awards. Chalk it up to a more diverse jury, the introduction of a distributor like Neon coming into the picture, or simply from the passage of time, but they’ve had a habit of picking more bangers than not in the last decade. We had Justine Triet win last year, Ruben Ostlund double-up for whatever reason in 2022, […]

Titled The Substance, it got rave reviews out of there, and captured the festival’s Best Screenplay award. What’s even more astonishing is that Demi Moore is in the lead role — she normally doesn’t do pictures like this, and apparently she […]

]]> Are you not entertained by the ‘Gladiator II’ trailer? https://vanyaland.com/2024/07/09/are-you-not-entertained-by-the-gladiator-ii-trailer/ Tue, 09 Jul 2024 17:26:04 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10038933 Everybody — stop what you’re doing and watch the Gladiator II trailer that Paramount dropped earlier on Tuesday (July 9). Why? Well, because Ridley Scott is cooking up another spectacle for audiences this fall, and it looks fucking insane. Sure, Russell Crowe’s not around in this one (hard to bring him back from the dead unless you’re working with the Roman gods and all that), but we’ve got Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal and Denzel Washington to fill the void he […]

]]> Watch the bloody teaser for Robert Eggers’ ‘Nosferatu’ https://vanyaland.com/2024/06/24/watch-the-bloody-teaser-for-robert-eggers-nosferatu/ Mon, 24 Jun 2024 18:43:30 +0000 https://vanyaland.com/?p=10038842 If there’s one thing that we love about Robert Eggers‘ filmography, it’s that it seems like he’s trying his best to piece together what would be one of the greatest single issues of a classic pulp horror magazine through his movies. He started off with The Witch, which was puritan folk horror, moved on to the Lovecraftian absurdity of The Lighthouse, made a barbarian tale that would have Robert E. Howard throwing up the horns with The Northman, and now, […]
