Trailer Park – 2014 #2
With the Summer movie season coming up fast, it’s time for more trailers! In this edition, we have not one but two sequels, a book adaptation and another ghost story. As always, click the poster to watch the trailer.
22 JUMP STREET
Who: Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, Ice Cube
What: After making their way through high school, officers Schmidt and Jenko go deep undercover at a local college.
We Say: Unexpectedly funny the first time round, so more than likely there will be more of the same. This time it’s set in college, so maybe a few more adult situations. How many sequels to remakes of TV shows can say they have an Oscar nominee?
HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON 2
Who: Jay Baruchel, Kristen Wiig, America Ferrera
What: Set five years on from the first film, HTTYD 2 is the continuing adventures of Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid, Snotlout and the rest of the gang.
We Say: If you liked the first one (I think just about everyone did), then you are going to like this one!
JESSABELLE
Who: Sarah Snook, Mark Webber, Kevin Greutert
What: Returning to her childhood home in Louisiana to recuperate from a horrific car accident, Jessabelle comes face to face with a long-tormented spirit that has been seeking her return.
We Say: More paranormal spookiness. Things are always stranger in the South.
THE MAZE RUNNER
Who: Dylan O’Brien, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Wes Ball
What: A group of boys, with no memories of their past lives, must escape a massive maze infested with deadly creatures.
We Say: Yet another YA adaptation, this one seems to have potential, but in a saturated market it’s going to have to stand out to be noticed.
