I see a lot of promise here. Straight Outta Compton reunites Ice Cube and director F. Gary Gray (Friday!) for a film that chronicles the early lives of Cube, Dr. Dre and Eazy-E, once known together as N.W.A. I am not usually one to check out red-band trailers (they tend to give away the goods, especially with comedies), but it seems harder not to sell a film like this without one. That in mind, again, I see a lot of promise and I tend to like what F. Gary Gray puts out (The Negotiator!). We will see come this August, but for now, check out the trailer and pics from the film in this post.

Featuring a mix of new and timeless songs infused with contemporary sensibilities, this updated version brings a hip new vibe to the heartwarming tale.

One evening during the night shift, Lou investigates a mysterious disturbance at the edge of town and wakes up with a pentagram carved in his chest, heightened senses and body hair that’s growing at an alarming rate. To solve the mystery of his transformation, he’ll have to take on a case no normal cop would be able to solve, but this half-man, half-beast is not just a cop…he’s a WOLFCOP.

It should be no surprise that Furious 7 is one of my most anticipated films of the year. All the main players return and the cast gets all the added value in the world in the way of Jason Statham, Kurt Russell, Djimon Hounsou, and Tony Jaa, among others. Now under James Wan’s direction, the action looks pretty incredible as well. This is a film that seemingly has it all, as far as mainstream blockbusters go and I cannot wait to see it at least a couple times on the big screen. With all that in mind, this latest entry in the enduring franchise has an all new trailer out, which is packed with action, along with a little more context for what is going on. There are also a slew of new photos as well, so continue on to see it all!
