SENSE8 A CHRISTMAS SPECIAL TRAILER: HALLELUJAH, NETFLIX TRIPPIEST THRILLER IS BACK FOR SEASON 2, AIR DATES, RUNDOWN THE LOT!!

Season 2 sense 8 photo.
In case you missed the news, which I don't possibly know how “Sense8” is officially kicking off its second season with a two-hour Christmas special, premiering December 23 on Netflix. (That’s just a week away!) “This is a time to come together,” this “Hallelujah”-scored teaser for the show’s return tells us. And when you think about it, what show says that better?

 The tale of eight strangers (played by Toby Onwumere, Tina Desai, Miguel Angel Silvestre, Jamie Clayton, Tuppence Middleton, Doona Bae, Brian J. Smith and Max Riemelt) who suddenly find themselves mentally connected was full of delightful surprises in Season 1. And while the show’s explicit sex and violence might not make it seem like a natural fit for Christmas, the themes of togetherness and family, as showcased in the trailer below, do inspire a certain level of holiday feels. (Not to mention the usual danger and threats that accompany life as a Senseate.) Click Here for teaser trailer.

 Why a Christmas special? Good question. To understand more about why the show decided to make something special for the holidays, watch the video below featuring “Sense8” co-creator Lana Wachowski. The director, whom Netflix officially confirms directed every episode of Season 2, explains how her love of old-school Christmas specials ties into the show’s ongoing themes. Click Here for breakdown trailer.

 Following the Christmas special, the 10 episodes of Season 2 officially premiere May 5, 2017 — a great reason to get through the new year. Check out a few extra photos from Season 2 above and below and enjoy counting down to next week. My senses are tingling haha pardon the pun. Are you excited?

Paul Thomas Anderson Week: 'There Will Be Blood' Review!

• There Will Be Blood, 2007 • 8.2/10 • Firstly, I would like to start with Daniel Day Lewis' mesmerizing performance as the ruthless oil prospector, Daniel Plainview. The scumbag cons local landowners into selling their valuable land for pittance, and then he comes along like a "straw" and "sucks it all up," leaving him very wealthy and everyone else in his way. Paul Dano, Wow, do you really expect anything less than magic when it comes to him acting, he's a true tour de force. I wish we had preachers like Eli Sunday up at my local church. Johnny Greenwood's score is brilliant, it really gets under your skin, you then combine that with the gorgeous cinematography, smart screenplay and the brilliant acting, you then have yourself a film where even if your not paying complete attention, you will still hate the lead by the end, all the same! Yeah, I did just say that. I'm sorry peeps but it got a little boring at times (it didn't keep me hook

'Tomb Raider' Review: First Successful Game Adaptation! Kudos!

Image
• Tomb Raider, 2018 • 7.9/10 • Alicia Vikander gives Lara depth and personality much like Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones. She's vulnerable, but she's also stubborn and focused to survive on her own and has never lost hope that she'll once again see her father. The story is built on the reboot of the video game series, but takes another way after the arrival at the destination where most of the action takes place. When the story follows the video game it has weaknesses (as so many games adaptations do), but when it stands on its own, it shows glimpses of coming adventures for Lara Croft that makes you want more -- much because of Vikanders grounded performance. The script is by no means perfect, the CGI was a bit spotty in places, and yes there are a few cliches and overused story devices here and there, but overall it is an enjoyable film and our first successful game adaptation! Yesss! P.S - Dominc West was the perfect choice for Mr. Croft!

'Love, Simon' Review: What A Nice Surprise!

• Love, Simon • Spoiler-Free • 8.7/10 • Well, what a surprise.... Don't get me wrong, the story of 'Love, Simon' has pretty much all been done before, just not executed as well. Bar the classic stereotypes and some cheesy moments, this film had me laughing out loud and crying even louder! Tbh when you watch a film like this, you normally expect it to try to be, too clever, too cute and too precious, but boy I have never been so far off the mark. The intelligence, depth, and charm were all legitimate and sincere here and it truly made the film into something rather special. It's funny, sweet, caring, true, real, and should pretty much be labelled a "True Story" for all its worth. The acting on all accounts was second-to-none but Josh Duhamel had the biggest tear-jerking scene going! I was sobbing like a real man! And Nick Robinson was believable and nothing short of phenomenal! Kudos! If you can get past the cheese-factor, you will definetly Love,
