As some of the blog readers of mine keep track of things in the blogs of mine and also wonder why I never see movies in theaters anymore, know that I want to, but I might as well state that while most of the reasons why they aren’t done are my fault alone, there are just a bit of other reasons why they aren’t done on time that can’t be blamed on me. You see, some of the movies don’t have certain cast members released in advance of these movies’ release. If I’m only seeing some movies because some particular person is in it and I don’t know that they are in it, then they are doing themselves a disservice and I’m less likely to be able to see it if I unaware that this movie even has this person in it.
Jonny Lee Miller: It seems that he
currently has only one project that I know of in the work. It is a movie called
Nine Lives. I’ll keep track of anything else that I see him doing in the
future. He also appears to be in a movie called Settlers. Another movie
that he will appear in is Alice. He will also be in the newest season of
The Crown.
Nine Lives: This doesn’t have a release date or a trailer just yet. Despite its name, it has nothing to do with cats. It’s a science fiction movie about a team of humans having to work with clones (I think) all in outer space somewhere for some reason.
Settlers: This is on DVD now.
I’m not entirely sure that this isn’t the same movie as the previous one and
imdb is confused. I will keep this as separate for now as I’m not sure what’s
happening with this yet. That seems to happen at lot when I’m doing cast
updates. Maybe this will change, but who knows? I
will not be able to see this so I’m going to remove this from the updates.
Alice: This is available
now. In it, a slave escapes only to find a shocking discovery nearby. I’d
have to see a trailer to know for sure what genre this might be. While it does
look good to me, this is a Netflix movie and I won’t be able to see it any time
soon. If I do ever wind up with Netflix at some point in time, I will watch it.
I am removing this from the updates since I doubt that I’ll be able to see it.
The Crown: This is a Netflix series. I
doubt that I’ll be able to watch it ever or any time soon. It is available
now. Jonny will be in the fifth season or series if you will. He will play
the role of John Major. There’s not much else to say about it.
Lucy Liu: She will also be in other
projects. One is called The Last Weekend in May. I have no idea when
that last project would be set for. Another thing that she will be in is called
(at least for now) Untitled Workplace Comedy that I hope gets a name
soon in the future. She is also set to be in Shazam! Fury of the gods.
Yet another thing she is doing in the future is The Invisibles.
The Last Weekend in May: There is no release date for this yet. There also isn’t a trailer or even a plot. If I had to guess, a significant point of this movie relates to the end of the month of May. That might even be a good time to release this movie if they wanted to. If June 1st is a Sunday, then which weekend would the last one in May be?
Untitled Workplace Comedy: This is set to air on ABC. The release date is currently unknown as of this time. I don’t quite understand the plot as currently written on imdb as it seems poorly phrased in some places. Best I can understand, a diva boss changes who she is after an adoption with her assistant becoming a mentor. I just hope that this doesn’t burn off during the summer. We’ll see what becomes of it later as things move along.
Shazam! Fury of
the gods: This is set for release on December 16, 2022. It is a sequel
to the film Shazam and part of the DCEU. There is not a plot for this just yet.
We’ll find out more about this in the future. I just hope that I’m able to see
the first one if I like this if I see this at some point in time.
The Invisibles: There is no release
date for this yet. There also is no trailer either. But there is a plot for
it. A man in a failing marriage starts to disappear and finds a new world of
people who have disappeared like him as well. If I had to guess, he would
overcome this problem, but maybe this won’t be the case after all? It might be
nice to see for just that reason and if the movie’s ending is good.
Aidan Quinn: I
thought that given his limited role in the final season of Elementary that we
might be seeing less of him. Well, it turns out that I was wrong. He will be
doing different things. For one, he will be part of the movie Butterfly in
the Typewriter that Desmond Harrington will also be in. He’ll also be in The
Gettysburg Address, which I find unlikely since that already happened in
the 1860s. He’ll also be in Spiked. Another thing he will be in is Blacklight.
Two more things he will be in are Food Fight and Cry from the Sea.
That’s a lot of things.
Butterfly in the Typewriter: From what I understand of the plot, an author struggles to bring a story to life in this movie. I don’t know yet if it is based on a true story. It could be very Meta if you know what that means. It has no release date yet.
The Gettysburg Address: Apparently they are going to milk the whole address into a movie. This seems like a weird choice since Lincoln himself in the address said that people will little remember what they say today. There is no release date yet for this.
Spiked: This has an unknown DVD release
timeframe as of now. The plot is about issues relating to a small town murder
and the feud between a police chief and journalist in that town. It could be
interesting, but cliché. This will be on the USA Network. It could be good if I
see it. It is based on a true story. Here’s a trailer for it:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isJPFwQ1aYU
Thoughts on trailer: It is hard to
gather as much from the trailer as I would like, but it does seem to be an
interesting looking movie. I look forward to potentially seeing this and can
only hope that this is interesting despite the trailer not being that detailed.
Blacklight: This is currently in
theaters. This movie is about a conspiracy relating to a shady government
operative that could cause issues in some ways. Or maybe it is too much like
Taken. This has a trailer. I might as well talk about that now:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPlCr1FFTZI
Thoughts on trailer: While this does
look interesting, it also looks kind of like every other Liam Neeson movie that
exists. Mixing in elements of Taken, we see Liam playing the typical badass
because I don’t think that he’s allowed to play any other role in a movie as
that’s against the natural law of the universe. I might like this, but hope
that it keeps a plot and doesn’t forget it in all the action while also not
just becoming just like every other action movie that you can already see.
Food Fight: This
has a release date of June 24, 2022. It doesn’t mention much of a plot
for this just yet. There is no trailer at the moment. Thus, there is not much
else that there is to say about this just yet.
Cry from the Sea:
This has an unknown release date at the moment. It does not have a
trailer yet either. I can’t quite make sense of the plot just yet, but it
appears to be about a grieving lighthouse keeper and the three people who
change his life.
Jon Michael Hill: He might finally be
doing something, although I’m a bit unsure and not entirely clear for sure if
he has a major role in it. But he is set to be in 61st Street.
It is nice to finally see him in something worth covering for once.
61st
Street: This has a release date of April 10, 2022. It is about a high
school athlete who winds up swept into the criminal justice system for some
reason. We’ll probably have to find out more by seeing it for ourselves some
day. There is a trailer for this now:
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQpfF9trmi4
Thoughts on trailer: What’s the type
of trailer that one could call this anyways? It seems a bit, analytical? I
don’t think that’s the right word. I can’t make much out of this, but I guess
that it’s supposed to be exciting, although I can’t tell why they don’t include
more of the exciting parts other than just music that might not be in the final
project.
John Noble: He has a lot of projects
in the work, so I might as well get to mentioning all of them. One is called Silencio.
Another is called Nameless. A different one is called Stream. Yet
another is called Guardians of Luna. I wonder if they’ll all get made.
He’s also in something new called Call Waiting. I wonder what all he’ll
show up in randomly. He is doing Twilight of the Gods. And he is in Star
Trek: Prodigy. He does a lot.
Silencio: This was in Mexican and not American
theaters. It has a plot mentioned of someone looking for a powerful stone. It
has a DVD release time frame of November 2022. I hope to review it when
it is out on DVD. It might only be on blu ray and not DVD.
Nameless:
This could be interesting. It has no release date or trailer just yet.
The plot relates to lost souls facing struggles with their past. It seems like
it could be a good film, but it is hard to tell or know yet for sure. It seems
like it could be good.
Stream:
In this movie, telepathy is made possible, but it could have unforeseen
outcomes. This seems like a possible basic premise for Downsizing with a
different element of sci-fi used instead. There is not yet a trailer and
there’s no release date yet. It only lists his role as rumored, so the
movie could wind up happening, but not have him in it.
Guardians
of Luna: This plot might be hard to keep track of. So there are werewolves that
are part of a cursed town and there’s a war on humans potentially. It has no
release date yet nor a trailer. But it does sound pretty interesting.
Call Waiting: This is has no plot
listed yet. It’s year of release is unknown at the time. I guess that we
will find out later what will happen with this and what the plot of this short
might be. Until then, I guess we’ll just wait and see what will happen with it.
Twilight of the gods: There is no
known plot for this at this point in time. It is set to be a TV series of some
sort. The current release date is unknown. There is no trailer yet,
either. So what else is worth keeping track of here for now? Not much.
Star Trek: Prodigy: This is currently
on Paramount+. There is a trailer for this that I will talk about some.
It is animated and seeks to use teens in a stolen vessel to explore the galaxy.
It was renewed for a second season already.
Trailer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBE7d8sH5Rg
Thoughts on trailer: A lot of trailers
are like this. They look great and make the show look great, but are also
cliché and generic. Plus, I don’t know if there is some rule that says that all
Star Trek TV shows are only allowed on streaming. I’m sad that we will never
see this discussed in an episode of The Big Bang Theory. Anyways, this show
looks like it could be interesting, but I doubt that I’ll be able to see it.
Desmond Harrington: He is set to appear in a movie called Butterfly
in the Typewriter, which I’ll explain in the next paragraph. There’s not
much else that he is known to be doing right now. Maybe he’ll do more in the
future. I’ll wait to see what it could be.
Butterfly
in the Typewriter: I can’t tell yet if this is based off of a true story or
not. I do know that it is about the struggles of an author to bring a comedy
story to life. It has an unknown release date at this time. I guess we’ll
see what comes of it later.
James Frain: While he has done a lot
and could potentially have more of a role in previous things that he has done,
what is worth noting now is that he will be in a movie called The Jester
from Transylvania. I still don’t quite understand what Transylvania is. He
is also set to be in Escape Room: Tournament of Champions. That could be
something that I want to see in the future. We’ll see what else he does.
The Jester from Transylvania: This has
an unknown release date. It also doesn’t have a plot mentioned, but it
is likely about a jester from Transylvania. Who this jester is and what he or
she does that’s important does not seem to be known about the movie yet at this
point in time. Maybe I will at some point. I just don’t now.
Escape Room: Tournament of Champions: This
is a sequel to a previous movie. I have not yet seen the first movie, but will
probably wait to see it until after I have seen this one. It may sound odd, but
that’s the current plan. I won’t say any more about this just yet as there can
be more revealed in due time. I might like this. We’ll see. It is on DVD now.
Review: Movie Name- Escape Room: Tournament of
Champions. Genre: Thriller, action, and elements of a slasher film. Rating:
PG-13. Noteworthiness- This is a sequel to the original movie Escape Room.
Description- Victors from previous escape rooms are forced back into a new one
where they must work together to once again escape. Elementary Alumni in it- Well,
this is awkward. James Frain is promoted as a character in this, but he wasn’t
in the version of this that I saw. He is in a different version of this that I
haven’t been able to see just yet. Pros- This is very interesting, drawing you
in with enough plot to make all of the danger worth it. It can be quite intense
with its action. Cons- This could be said to be ripping off the Saw franchise.
Parts of this seem unrealistic and don’t make sense. If there is not a sequel
to this, it won’t be worth seeing again and again. Note to Parents- The basic
plot involves trapping people and using them for games where many of them can
and do die. There are other dangerous elements outside of that which are also
worrisome for kids to see. Recommendation- This seems like a good movie. It
does make sense without the original, although you would probably want to see
it too, even if there is a recap of all of the important stuff in that movie
before the start of this one in the end. IMDB Ranking: 5.7. My Grade: B-.

Robert Doherty: He is working on something, but I can’t quite understand the name of it right now. It is called Alive II. Maybe I’ll understand more of it once more info on it comes out in the future. He does not seem to have any other projects in the works right now.
Alive II: This is a TV movie. Its airdate is currently unknown. Someone is resurrected mysteriously and this man or woman is a cop. I guess that we’ll see what happens with this project later. Also note that Alive II might be the title and make more sense regarding the bringing someone back from the dead angle. Doesn’t this sound a lot like FOX’s Second Chance from not too long ago?
Emily Procter: She hasn’t done much since CSI: Miami ended. She is a mom so I don’t know if that means she’d be acting less. Maybe she’ll do something at some point. But I don’t see anything that she’s doing just yet. Maybe I’ll see more later.
Khandi Alexander: While she still acts
some, as recently as 2019, I couldn’t find anything of hers that was major that
she’s doing right now. The most recent thing that she did was an episode of
What We Do in the Shadows. I hope to see more of her in the future.
Kim Delaney: This only thing that she
is doing right now is General Hospital. It is a soap that airs on ABC. I
don’t know if I’ll be able to see it and review it. But I will include it in
the updates for now. You might just see a review of this randomly at some point
in the future.
General Hospital: This is a popular
ABC soap that is very long running in a daytime show. I think that it relates to
hospitals and is a drama like that in some way, shape, or form. Maybe if I see
an episode, I’d know more what this is about and what makes it different than
other shows like it.
Jorja Fox: While she isn’t doing
anything since leaving CSI: Vegas as of yet (she does not have to at all by any
means as she can retire from acting or simply do other jobs), I am going to
include her in this blog now since she won’t be part of CSI: Vegas anymore.
Mel Rodriguez: I’m not sure why he
left CSI: Vegas since they never gave his character much in terms of character
development. I mean, he could have stayed on until there was more they could
give his character other than simply being the weird ME. And it doesn’t seem
like he left this for any other job at the moment, but I’ll keep track of
what’s happening with him from this point forward.
Adam
Rodriguez: We’ll see what all he might do in the future. He’s not doing
anything worth keeping track of at this point in time. Maybe he’ll do more over
time, but at the moment, he is not doing something that belongs in this blog.
