Eddie the Eagle UK HD720p 30MB US HD720p 29MB
Feel-good comedic sports drama from the UK loosely based on Michael "Eddie" Edwards (Taron Egerton), an unlikely but courageous British ski-jumper who never stopped believing in himself - even as an entire nation was counting him out. With the help of a rebellious and charismatic coach (Hugh Jackman), he takes on the establishment and wins the hearts of sports fans around the world by making an improbable and historic showing at the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics. Tim McInnerny, Christopher Walken and Jim Broadbent are also part of the cast. Directed by Dexter Fletcher (Sunshine on Leith).
Looks passable. You can choose between the UK and the US trailer version.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them HD720p 84MB HD1080p 139MB
Early announcement trailer without a lot of footage for the upcoming adaptation of the book from J.K. Rowling, to be in theatres next November. It opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures. Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident ... were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical case, and the escape of some of his fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds. Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Ezra Miller, Samantha Morton, Jon Voight, Ron Perlman, Carmen Ejogo and Colin Farrell are also part of the cast. Directed by Rowling's favourite, David Yates, who was responsible for the last four Harry Potter movies.
He Never Died HD720p 19MB
Redband trailer for this violent, supernatural drama with some darkly comedic elements. Jack (Henry Rollins) is in a rut. His existence has been whittled down to sleeping and watching TV, and he sees the human race as little more than meat with a pulse. When Jack suddenly finds his long-lost daughter taken by the city's crime syndicate, he must combat his inner demons as he embarks on a bloody war path to seek revenge and save her.
Looks like some bloody good fun. Now in limited release in the US.
Kubo and the Two Strings HD720p 14MB Feat HD720p 31MB
Early teaser for the next stop-motion animated movie from Laika Studios (Coraline, ParaNorman, The Boxtrolls). It's an epic action-adventure set in a fantastical Japan. Clever, kindhearted Kubo (Art Parkinson) ekes out a humble living, telling stories to the people of his seaside town. But his relatively quiet existence is shattered when he accidentally summons a spirit from his past which storms down from the heavens to enforce an age-old vendetta. Now on the run, Kubo joins forces with Monkey (Charlize Theron) and Beetle (Matthew McConaughey), and sets out on a thrilling quest to save his family and solve the mystery of his fallen father, the greatest samurai warrior the world has ever known. With the help of his shamisen - a magical musical instrument - Kubo must battle gods and monsters, including the vengeful Moon King (Ralph Fiennes) and the evil twin Sisters (Rooney Mara) to unlock the secret of his legacy, reunite his family and fulfill his heroic destiny.
Also, a two minute featurette about the studio's 10th Anniversary. If you would like to read more about Laika, last week there have been a number of articles in Variety about the studio.
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot HD720p 48MB
Bigscreen adaptation of the wartime memoir, "The Taliban Shuffle" by Kim Barker. It recounts her experiences covering conflicts. It's a dark comedy dealing with her (Tina Fey) fish-out-of-water experience and the challenges of being a woman in wartime Afghanistan and Pakistan. Margot Robbie, Martin Freeman, Billy Bob Thornton and Alfred Molina are also part of the cast. Directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (Focus, Crazy, Stupid, Love., I Love You Phillip Morris).
Can't wait to find out how many reviews will quote the movie title. Did you know I know the Nato alphabet?
