Legalization Supporting NYC Mayoral Candidate Goes “Homeless”

MARIJUANA POLITICS - The News Source For an Informed Citizenry Post by Anthony Johnson

I didn’t know what to expect when interviewing New York City mayoral candidate Mike Tolkin. Some third-party candidates can be very eccentric and New York has had it’s fair share; it is home to the Rent is Too Damn High Party after all. After talking to Mr. Tolkin, I can […]

Film Fanatic Trailers

‘The Oath’ Teaser Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

The first teaser trailer for The Oath has been released. Written, directed by and starring Ike Barinholtz, The Oath follows a family just trying to get through the holidays without killing one another. But when the White House asks Americans to sign an oath pledging their allegiance to the president with the deadline being the day after Thanksgiving, this family has no chance. They say never talk politics at the dinner table. Barinholtz took that saying and turned it into a great premise for a comedy. The Oath opens October 12.No Current Trailer

‘Roma’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

The first trailer for Roma has been released. Directed by Alfonso Cuaron (Gravity, Children of Men), Roma follows the lives of a middle-class family in 1970s Mexico City. Shot in gorgeous black and white, Roma looks to be yet another incredible film from Cuaron whose versatility as a filmmaker is second to none. Roma will have a limited theatrical run later this year before being available on Netflix.No Current Trailer

‘Widows’ Trailer #2

By Anthony Johnson

The second trailer for Widows has been released. Directed by Steve McQueen (12 Years a Slave) and written by McQueen and Gillian Flynn (Gone Girl), Widows follows a group of women grieving after their husbands are killed after a heist gone wrong. But their sorrow is only temporary because they now carry the debt left by their husbands. Led by Viola Davis, Widows features one of the most impressive casts ever assembled. This has the potential to be not only a taught thriller, but an awards contender. Widows opens November 16.No Current Trailer

‘Arizona’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

The first trailer for Arizona has been released. Danny McBride stars as a disgruntled home-owner who's unable to sell his home. Desperate and unhinged, he kidnaps his real estate agent (Rosemarie DeWitt) and her daughter. McBride is guaranteed laughs and I like the darkly comedic vibe to this. It looks like an entertaining film with an underlining message about the housing market crash in 2009. Arizona opens August 24.No Current Trailer

‘Maniac’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

The first trailer for the Netflix limited series, Maniac, has been released. Look, I couldn't tell you what's going on this trailer. It has something to do with people participating in a drug trial. From there, the trailer turns into an acid trip if that acid trip were directed by Spike Jonze or Michel Gondry. Cary Fukunaga is the actual director of Maniac and after his great work on True Detective (Season 1), I'm interested in anything he does. Throw in a Superbad reunion with Emma Stone and Jonah Hill and I'm there. Maniac releases on Netflix on September 21.No Current Trailer

‘Lizzie’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

The first trailer for Lizzie has been released. Based on the true story of the gruesome Lizzie Borden murders, Lizzie follows Chloe Sevigny in the titular role as a troubled young woman dealing with an abusive father. She eventually befriends Bridget Sullivan (Kristen Stewart) who form a passionate relationship considered taboo at the time. Lizzie's father eventually turns his wickedness towards Bridget forcing Lizzie to act. This trailer has an interesting juxtaposition of brooding violence and class. Sevigny has always had a quiet way about her that I've enjoyed and this looks like a worthy piece of material to highlight her talents. Lizzie opens September 14.No Current Trailer

‘Venom’ Trailer #2

By Anthony Johnson

Sony Pictures has released a new trailer for Venom. Tom Hardy stars in the titular role as journalist Eddie Brock who comes into contact with an alien symbiote transforming him into Venom. I loved the Venom character as a kid and while it's exciting to see him in his own movie, I'm still not blown away with what I'm seeing. Hardy is doing yet another "voice" thing, the jokes are clunky and the dialogue is banal. Hopefully the finished product is an improvement over the advertising. Venom opens October 5.No Current Trailer

‘Mid90s’ Redband Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

A24 has released the first trailer for Mid90s. Written and directed by Jonah Hill, the film follows 13-year-old Stevie over the course of a summer as he makes friends and gets into trouble. This is Hill's directorial debut and based on the trailer, he seems to have drawn inspiration from Richard Linklater. The film looks raw, funny, emotional and character driven. Mid90s opens October 19.No Current Trailer

‘Aquaman’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

Warner Bros. has released the first trailer for Aquaman. Starring Jason Mamoa in the titular role, Aquaman follows his rise from the son of a lighthouse keeper to ruler of Atlantis. But the journey along the way isn't easy. Despite DC's shaky run in creating their own cinematic universe, I was optimistic about Aquaman thanks to director James Wan. Based on the trailer, this looks to be a fun and more light-hearted entry in the DCEU. While some of the underwater effects are a bit too cartoony, they could easily be unfinished. Between this and Shazam, Warner Bros. might be course-correcting their universe in the right direction. Aquaman opens December 21.No Current Trailer

‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

Warner Bros. has released the first trailer for Godzilla: King of the Monsters. The sequel to the 2014 film, Godzilla follows a group of people adjusting to a world where a giant lizard rises from the sea. But when a number of new monsters emerge, including Mothra, the people turn to Godzilla to protect them. The 2014 Godzilla was a pretty good blockbuster, but it lacked enough of the giant lizard. This one looks to have far more action and spectacle. And I loved the inclusion of Clair de lune. Godzilla: The King of Monsters opens May 31, 2019.No Current Trailer

‘Glass’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

Universal has released the first trailer for Glass. Written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, Glass is the unexpected sequel to Unbreakable and Split. The film follows hero David Dunn (Bruce Willis) and his nemesis, Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson), whose rivalry is rekindled after the emergence of Kevin Wendell Crumb (James McAvoy). Unbreakable has always been Shyamalan's most underrated film and it was ahead of its time in the age of superhero stories. Sequels had been planned years ago, but due to its mediocre box office numbers, they were scrapped. But with the release of Split two years ago and its shocking reveal that it exists inside the Unbreakable universe, Shyamalan was able to continue his Unbreakable story. Glass looks like a terrific follow up that treats the superhero lore with the same nuance and realism seen in Unbreakable. Glass opens January 2019.No Current Trailer

‘Welcome to Marwen’ Trailer #2

By Anthony Johnson

A new trailer for Welcome to Marwen has been released. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, the film is based on the true story of Mark Hogancamp (Steve Carell), an artist whose memory is ravaged after he's nearly beaten to death. As a form of therapy, Mark creates a replica of a tiny Belgian village and populates it with the people in his life. This is certainly a sappy trailer, but I've been continually impressed with Carell's dramatic work and Zemeckis has always been a reliable filmmaker. Welcome to Marwen opens November 21.No Current Trailer

‘A Simple Favor’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

The first official trailer for A Simple Favor has been released. Anna Kendrick stars as Stephanie, a blogger who befriends the mysterious Emily (Blake Lively) through their children. But when Emily disappears, Stephanie attempts to solve not only Emily's whereabouts, but her very secretive life. Paul Feig directs and it looks like a great change-of-pace for a director normally associated with comedies (Bridesmaids, The Heat, Spy). A Simple Favor opens September 14.No Current Trailer

‘Beautiful Boy’ Trailer

By Anthony Johnson

Amazon Studios has released the first trailer for Beautiful Boy. Based on the memoirs by David and Nic Sheff, the film tackles the subject of addiction through the eyes of Nic (Steve Carell) and his son, David (Timothee Chalamet). David has struggled with a meth addiction for many years and Nic feels helpless in getting him better. Fresh off of his star-making turn in Call Me By Your Name, Chalamet looks captivating once again while Carell continues to choose interesting dramatic work following his Office days. Beautiful Boy opens October 12.No Current Trailer
