Movie Trailers July 2026

I know it's been a while, but let's do a movie roundup for July. 

Spider-Man: Brand New Day (July 24th)

Looks good. The Punisher/Hulk elements seem to be supporting elements as they should be. I don't know why we need to make biological web shooters or immediately undo the last movie. I don't know why Spider-Man is fighting The Hand and...I wanna say, Denzel Washington from the movie Fallen, but I'm willing to go with it.

Has nothing to do with the comics, AFAIK, but I think we're good with that.

Movie Trailers for June 2025


Let's do it. 

"It" is pretending I'm not writing this in August and haven't already seen Superman (2025)

Superman - June 11th

Lil' Jon Williams. A lot of James Gunn. It's weird and it's not ashamed of it. How do we incorporate the Krypto and the geopolitics angle and the Justice Gang?

Well.

They incorporated it well.

Movie Trailers for August

So what's a few months between movie trailer looks?

JULY

Barbie - Senator Ted Cruz believes that Barbie is communist propaganda, so...movie of the year.

Oppenheimer - Cilian Murphy is still killing it as J. Robert Oppenheimer in a Christopher Nolan film. I haven't seen it. 

Barbieheimer - I believe in Barbieheimer.

Mission Impossible 5(?) of 6(?) - I hope this pays for 1--no, 2--high concept science fiction films that no one but Tom Cruise would make.

Hobbit 3 / Lord of the Rings -1: Battle of 4 2/2 Armies

Known in America as "These Motherfuckers Again: Plus Other Motherfuckers Again"

When we last left The Hobbit, Smaug was getting himself emotionally pumped for a busy night of burninating both the countryside, the villagers, and the thatched roof cottages of Lake Town. Because I've started playing Skyrim since this all started, my usual line-by-line commentary has been alloyed by my perspective as the Dovahkiin.

*Smaug burns down the village as the villagers scream.* "But it's a literally a Lake Town. Just...jump into the water villagers." "Fish shit in there!" screams one villager. "'e shits in there!" screams another, gesturing at the first. 

They burn to death and I cast heal with both hands as I walk through the fire, but not before looting their bodies to gain two bone meal.

I can see Tauriel looking up at Smaug as he strafes the village with fire again. His ability to both move and use a breath weapon makes him terrifying, especially for an archer. None the less, I can already see the finishing move where she surfs him into the bottom of the lake.

I can only assume it's called "Lake Town Lake," because that's how things are named here apparently.
