Now this is an interesting one. There was a lot riding on the trailer for Rogue One after the success of The Force Awakens, as not only did it have to show it wasn’t a follow-up to last year’s movie but it also needed to show those uncertain about it that it wasn’t just a shameless cash-in on the Star Wars name.
I think it’s fair to say it does a great job, displaying a darker, more adult tone, while showing an impressive feel for the look of the original Star Wars trilogy, mixed with some very modern special effects. It’s not surprising they have gone for that slightly 1970s look, as the film is set just before A New Hope.
The film follows the mission that got hold of the Death Star plans that played such a vital role in the first movie. And after the success of Rey, the trailer introduces us to another strong heroine in the form of Felicity Jones’ Jyn Erso. Take a look at the trailer below.
The movie hits cinemas in December. [Read more…]

In the two-part first episode of Tough Love Season 3, Steven’s date with a super-hot, muscled model didn’t go too well as it brought up all his insecurities. However, there’s a possibility things are looking up for him in Episode 2. However Blaire is being as anxious as ever.

The Transgender Film Festival in Kiel, Germany, returns this year for another edition running from April 14th to 17th. It’s taken the perhaps surprising decision to screen Roland Emmerich’s Stonewall – a movie many took issue with and accused it of marginalising gender non-confirming people’s importance to the Christopher Street riots, while focusing on a cisgender, white man.
Last year Netflix made a concerted effort to make shows that would appeal to a slightly older demographic than the young people the service is known to attract in droves. One of the classiest bits of original programming was Grace & Frankie, starring Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda as two married women approaching old age, who get the shock of their lives when their husbands (Martin Sheen and Sam Waterston) don’t just announce they’re leaving them, but that they’re gay and in a relationship.
Nowadays Ellen DeGeneres is a much loved comedian, talk show host and actress, and may well be the most famous lesbian in the world. But when she was first finding fame she hadn’t come out, and now actor Johnathon Schaech has confirmed that for a time he acted as her beard – however, it has to be said the way he talks about it is surprisingly gallant.
A couple of month ago we had a fun little teaser for The BFG, but it didn’t show us much, other than it was about two people – one very small, and the other so enormous we only saw his hand. Now we get to see a lot more, with a new trailer introducing us to the giant’s world, and the fact that jut because you’re a giant, doesn’t mean there aren’t even bigger people out there.
Some loved 2011’s Young Adult while others were far less impressed, but some of the creative team are getting back together. 
Will Ferrell is not a man who immediately looks like he’d be a rugged adventurer setting off to do incredible and dangerous feats. However, it looks like he’s going to give it a go – or at least the character he’s planning to play in Ice Pack will – according to
