There seems to be a new trend in Hollywood where new, promising directors get picked to direct big studio movies instead of the household names. Think of Colin Trevorrow who got to follow up Safety Not Guaranteed with Jurassic World. Or Gareth Edwards who got his start with the low-budget drama Monsters and then got to make the very big budget flick Godzilla. And now you can add Jordan Vogt-Roberts to that list.
Chicago’s Ratboys already left a favorable impression with their first album, 2015’s “AOID”.

This was, without a doubt, the most enjoyable album listening experience I’ve had in years. I’m not exaggerating.
In the semi-enjoyable romcom ‘About A Boy’, Hugh Grant’s character realizes that dating single mothers is the way to go. Turns out that being in Single Mothers isn’t quite as enjoyable.

Rotzak is a Belgian band with a name that stands out. That’s because ‘rotzak’ means ‘bastard’ in Dutch. Or ‘rotten ballsack’ if you want go for a literal translation. It’s not a very nice name.
Formerly known as The Spacepimps, Eternal Boy are ready to release their debut album under their new name. “Awkward Phase” comes with 12 whoppin’ pop-punk tunes that will take you right back to the glory days of Drive-Thru Records.
A young but ambitious Wall Street manager named Lockhart (Dane DeHaan) is sent to a spa in the Swiss Alps to bring back Pembroke (Harry Groener), one of the big chiefs in the company. Upon arrival, he meets the slightly creepy director of the place, Volmer (Jason Isaacs) along with Pembroke, who has no intention of leaving the spa and going back to the hustle and bustle of NYC. When Lockhart tries to leave, he gets in a car accident and ends up having to stay longer than he had anticipated. Which would have been fine had he been in any other spa, but this place is just plain creepy.
After 17 years and 8 movies, did we really need another movie starring Hugh Jackman as Wolverine? Turns out we did. And if the others were anything like Logan, I would say we needed even more.
