Tokyo Ghoul just got its longest trailer yet, with a packed 3-minute theatrical trailer that gives us our best looks at the main characters of the film, as well as the effects. We even get a taste of the official theme of the film, by the band RADWIMPS, who also performed music for this year’s critically acclaimed Your Name.
Tokyo Ghoul follows Ken Kaneki, a boy who is attacked on a date gone wrong, and becomes half-human and half-ghoul. Set in an alternate reality where creatures called ghouls live amongst humanity and feed on flesh to survive.

The title, which will be released on February 27, 2018 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, will see players take control of a custom-created police deputy in an attempt to liberate Hope County, Montana from the Project at Eden’s Gate cult.

Netflix has released the first teaser trailer for their Castlevania anime adaptation. While the trailer doesn’t show too much, it gives us our first look at the incredible animation, as well as a few of the voices in the series.
Castlevania is currently set to premiere on Netflix on July 7.
Marvel Studios has released the third trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming, and I honestly wish they had released this trailer, rather than the last one. The last trailer showcased the entire film (as far as we know), and basically laid out the entire plot. Whereas this new trailer shows Peter Parker the character, and his life as a friendly, neighborhood Spider-Man. It’s much more personal, and infinitely more fun.
However, given the recent Guardians of the Galaxy film, and its many trailer twists, I’m starting to think Homecoming could be a pretty giant swerve from what we think is happening here. In fact, we know that the homecoming dance will factor into this somehow, and we even have our first hint at that, with Peter running in a suit down the halls of his school and ripping off hie tie. We’ll just have to wait and see. Spider-Man: Homecoming releases in theaters July 7, 2017.
Holy… this is so awesome. CBS has finally made available the first trailer for All Access Exclusive Star Trek: Discovery, and it is absolutely gorgeous.

Later this year, Valiant Entertainment plans to bring to light their first of many live-action features that are spotlighting the publisher’s amazing group of B-Level (but still fucking awesome) superheroes. Many are well known, others not so much. But it’s always nice to see more deserving heroes get the live-action treatment. In celebration of this, Valiant is releasing some badass variant covers now-through-August for much of their main line.
You can watch the trailer above, or hit the jump to view the variant covers, and a full breakdown of what books will be getting special edition variants for the summer.

Now, on the run, he must face off against the most powerful heroes known to man for a high-octane, take-no-prisoners trial by fire more perilous and more unpredictable than any he’s faced before.

The first full trailer for Blade Runner 2049 has also hit on a busy news day today. The trailer gives us a lot more to work with as far as plot goes, and we see glimpses of many of the new characters and the larger cast at hand. It’s an action-packed trailer that does a good job of reintroducing us to the cyberpunk world of Blade Runner.
Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K, unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what’s left of society into chaos. K’s discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard, a former LAPD blade runner who has been missing for 30 years.
The final full trailer for Wonder Woman before the film’s release has finally hit, and it is one hell of a trailer indeed. We see a lot of the same footage as usual, but with plenty of new footage of a young Diana, and see some new shots of the war.
It’s a grand trailer for one of the most anticipated films of the year. Each new piece of footage I see for this makes me more and more excited, and I absolutely can’t wait. The only thing I’m a little upset about, is that we still haven’t seen Ares, the rumored real villain of the film, though many have speculated that his appearance would spoil a pivotal plot twist in the film. We’ll just have to see when Wonder Woman hits theaters on June 2nd.

The first teaser trailer for Marvel’s Inhumans television event is finally online, with little more than some fancy visuals, and a voice-over from both Maximus and Medusa. The two are discussing Maximus and his want to be free from the Inhuman city of Attilan.
Admittedly, the more they release of this, the more off it seems to me. Something just doesn’t seem quite right, and I can’t put my finger on why just yet. I’m going to wait and reserve final judgment for actual moving footage of the characters and series, but currently, with each release of image or information, I seem to lose a little faith in this. As usual, though… I’m trying to stay optimistic.
So, a trailer for the long in-production television series from SyFy, known as Krypton, has made its way onto Vimeo. The trailer has since been pulled from YouTube, due to a breach of terms, which leads is authenticity into question. However, judging by the production values on this, and just how incredible it looks, it’s hard to imagine this being a fan production.
Krypton is set before the destruction of Superman’s homeworld, and details the events that lead into the demise of the once-great race of Kryptonians. The show is meant as a Games of Thrones-esque political thriller, set to the backdrop of a comic book-inspired world of science fiction. It also seems to be the first television show that may tie directly into the DC Entertainment Universe, and Man of Steel. Considering David Goyer is the showrunner, and he co-wrote Man of Steel, and Batman v. Superman, this isn’t too shocking, but it is quite exciting. I definitely implore everyone to check it out. Initially, I had no interest in this show, but after seeing this, if this is real, you can consider my interest piqued to its maximum levels.
UPDATE: SyFy has removed the trailer, as this show has not been picked up as a series, and was never meant to be released online. The network is still reviewing the pilot. I have attached a video with screenshots in the meantime.
The 40th Anniversary of Star Wars is still in full swing at the Disney Star Wars Celebration at Walt Disney World, and… welp. In an expected, but still amazing reveal, director Rian Johnson unveiled the first official teaser trailer for Star Wars [Episode VIII]: The Last Jedi.
The trailer is incredibly gorgeous, and shows several shots of the island we left Rey on at the end of The Force Awakens, as well as Luke Skywalker, a destroyed Kylo Ren helmet, and several flashes of where our characters are, now. Finn is shown possibly still unconscious from the damage at the hands of Kylo Ren, but in some sort of stasis pod, perhaps? Poe is in some serious trouble, in an exploding hangar, and the Force is still being as mysterious as ever. All in all, this is a fucking incredible first trailer for the most anticipated movie of the year, for us all.
