Sicario 2: Soldado HD720p 62MB
First trailer for the sequel. The drug war on the US-Mexico border has escalated as the cartels have begun trafficking terrorists across the US border. To fight the war, federal agent Matt Graver (Josh Brolin) reteams with the mercurial Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro). Emily Blunt does not return. New cast additions are Catherine Keener, Isabela Moner, Jeffrey Donovan and Matthew Modine. Denis Villeneuve also does not return, instead Stefano Sollima directs, who made the very impressive, tonally similar Suburra. Again written by Taylor Sheridan.
The people involved continue to be good, but I think it's very unlikely the sequel will be equally impressive as the first one.

Teaser trailer for the upcoming Disney adaptation based on the story by E.T.A. Hoffmann and Tchaikovsky ballet, to be in theatres next fall. All Clara (Mackenzie Foy) wants is a key, a one-of-a-kind key that will unlock a box that holds a priceless gift from her late mother. A golden thread, presented to her at godfather Drosselmeyers (Morgan Freeman) annual holiday party, leads her to the coveted key - which promptly disappears into a strange and mysterious parallel world. Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, Keira Knightley, Matthew Macfadyen and prima ballerina Misty Copeland are also part of the cast. Directed by Lasse Hallström (The Hundred-Foot Journey, Chocolat, Casanova).
For me it could just as well be an Alice in Wonderland/Cinderella franchise cross-over.

Redband trailer for this action comedy about a mild-mannered pharmaceutical company executive Harold (David Oyelowo) who takes a business trip from Chicago to Mexico with his cutthroat bosses Richard (Joel Edgerton) and Elaine (Charlize Theron). At the company's Mexican lab, Richard orders manager Sanchez to stop selling the bioengineered marijuana product Cannabax to a brutal, Beatles-loving cartel kingpin known as ... The Black Panther. Meanwhile, straight-arrow Harold learns he’ll be out of a job as soon as Richard and Elaine sell their newly cleaned-up company to a conglomerate. Sharlto Copley, Thandie Newton, Amanda Seyfried and Harry Treadaway are also part of the cast. Directed by Joel's brother Nash Edgerton (The Square).

Second trailer for this sci-fi, action adventure directed by Steven Spielberg (Jurassic Park, War of the Worlds, Minority Report) based on the novel from Ernest Cline. Set in 2045, with the world on the brink of chaos and collapse. But the people have found salvation in the OASIS, an expansive virtual reality universe created by the brilliant and eccentric James Halliday (Mark Rylance). When he dies, he leaves his immense fortune to the first person to find a digital Easter egg he has hidden somewhere in the OASIS, sparking a contest that grips the entire world. When an unlikely young hero (Tye Sheridan) decides to join the contest, he is hurled into a breakneck, reality-bending treasure hunt through a fantastical universe of mystery, discovery and danger. Olivia Cooke, Ben Mendelsohn, Simon Pegg, Hannah John-Kamen and T.J. Miller are also part of the cast.
The novel gets described as "The Holy Grail of Pop Culture".
Foxtrot HD720p 71MB
Drama from Israel in which Michael and Dafna are devastated when army officials show up at their home to announce the death of their son Jonathan. While his sedated wife rests, Michael spirals into a whirlwind of anger only to experience one of life's unfathomable twists, which rival the surreal military experiences of his son. Written and directed by Samuel Maoz (Lebanon).
Was very well received at festivals and looks much more interesting than the summary suggests. One of the nine movies remaining in the running for Best Foreign Language Film.
