#army of the dead: lost vegas trailer

[cann1bal-kitt3n-x]

Hey girl! Before I ask, I just wanted to say I love your blog-especially your taste in movies! I've watched so many good movies from you! I noticed you kind of gravitate more towards campy, trailer park-esque vibes, which is something I also adore. I was wondering if you could think of any movies that have that specific vibe, that also fit with coquette/faunlet vibes. Thanks! And once again, love your blog!

Hi! Thank you so much for sending me this ask and for supporting my blog, I really appreciate it ♡

I try to watch lots of films that relate to the coquette/faunlet lifestyle and I'm constantly discovering new movies (@coquette-club is currently posting about lots of great films to check out)!

I love campy, trailer park/motel/road trip type films because that sort of lifestyle has always been interesting to me and I have seen many great films over the years that feature these motifs so here's my little list for you ♡

American Honey (2016)

Star is a young girl living in poverty with her dysfunctional family until she meets a charming stranger in a supermarket. They go on a road trip selling magazines door-to-door and meet many interesting people along the way. It's a beautiful film about growing up, first love, identity and features mainly unknown actors and improvised lines to feel even more gritty and real. Sasha Lane is incredible in this film and I adore her ♡

Black Snake Moan (2006)

Christina Ricci plays a young woman who is lost in life and suffers from nymphomania and Samuel L Jackson's character Lazarus attempts to cure her by imprisoning her with a chain around her waist. It's a seriously weird film and you've probably seen the clips of Ricci dancing with the chain, but it's also pretty enjoyable and features some really awesome blues music, southern sleaze and skimpy coquette outfits ♡

Hick (2011)

This one is a classic in the coquette world, Luli has become an icon to us with her dreams of running away to find fun in Las Vegas after being abandoned by her family at 13 years old. She hitches a ride with a cowboy and sleeps in a trailer, does cocaine and robs a convenience store (and that's just the first act). It's a super grimy film and I enjoyed the visuals too ♡

Ripe (1996)

Two orphaned sisters flee a car wreck and hitch a ride to a dilapidated army camp, where they stay with the grumpy caretaker and cause chaos wherever they go. It's really hard to find but worth the watch if you can, the aesthetics are so sickly sweet and feel just like Video Games by Lana Del Rey mixed with the warmth of a summer day ♡

A few miscellaneous:

Where the Heart is (2000) // Bones and All (2022)

~ Natalie Portman's character lives in a trailer park and is abandoned pregnant by her boyfriend in a wallmart

~ Road trip love story, our main characters steal and squat in various trailers, farms and other lodgings

The Florida Project (2017) // Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)

~ A single mother lives in a motel in Florida

~ Teen beauty pagent star lives with her mother in a trailer

I really hope this is helpful! There are probably others but this is all I can think of for now, and there are many more similar to this that I haven't yet seen! Thanks again for the ask ♡

Netflix’s Army Of The Dead Lost Vegas- All About The Anime Prequel

Netflix’s Army Of The Dead Lost Vegas- All About The Anime Prequel

While we as a whole sit tight for the Army Of The Dead film from Netflix, there’s no more substance to look towards after that. Be that as it may, it’s difficult a brand-name connection between the two activities, yet a genuine affiliation. An intriguing reality about the two tasks is while one is an element film, the other is series inactivity. That does sort of place everything on Netflix in a…

Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead Universe Is Here to Stay

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Despite his exit from Warner Bros’ big-screen DC movie universe, director Zack Snyder isn’t done with shared universes just yet. And while his tenure as the creative lead of the DCEU, which culminated with this year’s Snyder Cut of Justice League, may have been polarizing to say the least, the Army of the Dead director may actually be just what Netflix needed.

After years of chasing ways to build its own coveted blockbuster shared universe, such as with its failed attempt to launch a superhero universe based on Mark Millar’s Jupiter’s Legacy, the streaming service finally seems to have the foundation it was looking for with Snyder’s return to the genre that turned him into an A-lister back in 2004. In fact, Army of the Dead was originally conceived as a sequel to Snyder’s Dawn of the Dead remake, but almost two decades later, it’s grown much bigger than that.

Even before Army of the Dead introduced us to Snyder’s vision of a zombified Vegas strip in May, Netflix already had plans to expand this world beyond just one action movie. The streamer greenlit a prequel heist movie starring Matthias Schweighöfer’s goofy safecracker Ludwig Dieter, as well as an anime prequel series, soon after striking the partnership with Snyder. As the centerpiece of this fledgling zombie universe, Army of the Dead set up many opportunities for future sequels and spinoffs, too. There could be aliens, robot zombies, or even trippy time loops in future Army installments, and Mexico City is almost certainly doomed in the recently announced sequel. And judging from the audience response to the first movie, most viewers are willing to go along for the ride.

Some might say Netflix has nailed the shared universe formula with the most unlikely source at the helm. Despite the fervor with which his most passionate fans defend his work, Snyder’s contributions to the DCEU are still heavily debated years later. There are those fans who love his grittier, darker take on the DC pantheon, while others believe universe kickstarters Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice tanked DC’s chances to compete with Marvel Studios from the beginning.

But regardless of what you think of the quality of his work (we gave Army of the Dead three out of five stars), it’s clear that Snyder’s name attracts viewers — even if some only tune in to see how the over-the-top director has outdone himself this time. The movie got 75 million views in its first month, making it the 9th most watched English language film of all time on Netflix, and securing the immediate future of the franchise. Army of the Dead 2, which will once again be directed and co-written by Snyder, is now in development, but it won’t shoot until after the director has completed work on his space-set sci-fi film Rebel Moon, also coming to Netflix.

In the meantime, there are other corners of the Army of the Dead universe to explore, including the backstory of Dieter, who met an ambiguous end in Snyder’s movie at the hands of alpha zombie leader Zeus (it actually isn’t all that clear whether he’s actually really dead, but it’s likely). Schweighöfer directed Army of Thieves himself from a script by Shay Hatten, who also co-wrote Army of the Dead. The film also stars Nathalie Emmanuel, Guz Khan, Ruby O. Fee, Stuart Martin, Jonathan Cohen, Noemie Nakai, and Peter Simonischek as the titular thieves who attempt to pull off a heist six years before the events of Snyder’s movie, just at the start of the zombie outbreak in Vegas.

During the Army of Thieves panel at SDCC@Home, Netflix revealed the first trailer, which promises even more Dieter shenanigans and funny quips:

cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });

Army of the Dead isn’t wasting any time when it comes to TV animation, either. An anime series called Lost Vegas “chronicles the origin story of Scott (Dave Bautista) and his rescue crew during the initial fall of Vegas as they confront the mysterious source of the zombie outbreak,” per Netflix. Jay Oliva (Trese) will serve as showrunner, with Snyder directing two episodes of the series.

By the sound of it, Lost Vegas should shed more light on Zeus’ original rampage through the strip as well as Scott’s adventures with Vanderohe (Omari Hardwick) and “Soccer Mom” (Danielle Burgio) in the opening credits sequence of the movie. Will this installment finally confirm that the zombie virus really is alien?

Like the MCU with Thanos or the DCEU Snyderverse with Darkseid, the Army of the Dead universe could use its next few installments to slowly draw out its true big bad. There are several scenes in the movie that tease that the zombies are only the surface level threat, with alien invaders or Hiroyuki Sanada’s Bly Tanaka (whom some suspect to be a Devil-like figure who’s trapped Scott and his team in an endless time loop) pulling all the strings. There’s also the U.S. Defense Department trying to build its own zombie army.

And unlike with the DCEU, it seems that Snyder will actually get to see all of these plot threads through.

Army of Thieves is out later this year. Lost Vegas hits Netflix in 2022.

Link Tank: Army of the Dead Scrapped Plans for a Whole Zombified Zoo

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

Zack Snyder’s upcoming Army of the Dead features a zombified tiger, but the film almost had a whole zombified zoo.

“Along with thinking, organized zombies, Zack Snyder’s living mercenaries in the upcoming Army of the Dead will have to deal with at least one undead white tiger as they venture into the overrun ruins of Las Vegas in search of $200 million dollars stashed in an abandoned casino. The idea of an army of zombies having an inexhaustible tiger among their ranks is alarming enough, but according to director Snyder, at one point he decided to go a bit bigger.”

The Office actress Angela Kinsey revealed who the father of Jan’s baby is in a recent episode of the Office Ladies podcast.

“When Michael Scott discovered that ex-girlfriend Jan Levinson was expecting a baby during the season 4 finale of The Office, she immediately hit him with another jarring revelation: he was not the father, though it’s obvious she had become pregnant while they were still together. Instead, she had visited a sperm bank.”

Mads Mikkelsen calls Indiana Jones 5 “everything I wish it to be” in a new interview about the upcoming movie.

“Indiana Jones 5 is a movie that I still can’t believe is happening. The series, which started in 1981 with the release of Raiders of the Lost Ark and most recently had Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in 2008, is one that fans have clung to throughout the decades. I, myself, am the resident The Last Crusade stan and have gotten in many a fight with people (mostly men, let’s be real) about that movie.”

HBO’s horror hit Lovecraft Country wrapped up with a solid finale last year. Here’s everything you need to know about a possible second season.

“HBO’s Lovecraft Country, an adaptation of Matt Ruff’s X-Files-meets-Jim-Crow novel of the same name, had a pretty solid, satisfying ending, but set up plenty of intriguing stuff just in case the show got another season. Will HBO bring the series back for Season 2, sending the Freeman-Dandridge family on all-new, horrifying adventures?”

Honest Trailers‘ take on The Falcon and the Winter Soldier reveals the show’s dumbest flaw.

“There are two types of people. Those who begrudgingly watch Honest Trailers, and those who have never heard of the satirical pop culture YouTube series.

Zack Snyder regresa con “Army of the Dead”, una película de zombies y robos de banco

Después de haber estrenado con éxito “La Liga de la Justicia” en HBO, Zack Snyder retorna al cine de zombies con “Ejército de los muertos” que se estrenará el próximo 21 de mayo en Neflix y ciertos cines, la película va a estar ambientada en una postapocalíptica urbe de las Vegas, donde los protagonistas se van a ver envueltos en una misión para recobrar una copiosa cantidad de dinero antes que el gobierno lance una bomba atómica sobre esa urbe plagada de zombies. Dave Bautista es quien está al frente del elenco interpretando a Scott Ward, un héroe de guerra que ahora trabaja en un restorán de hamburguesas y que es contratado por un magnate de casinos, es precisamente por esto que Scott reúne a un equipo de especialistas para hacer la misión, entre ellos vamos a poder ver a María Cruz, una vieja amiga y experimentada mecánica interpretada por Ana de la Reguera, aparte de otros personajes cuyas habilidades vamos a poder ver en su esplendor a lo largo del trascurso del filme, por determinado, te dejamos con el trailer solamente a fin de que veas de lo que te hablamos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5DCpieZ4Gk&feature=emb_title La verdad se ve bastante bien, no podemos esperar a verla, en verdad el propio Snyder aseveró que es una película rompegéneros y autoconsciente con lo que tiene un buen sentido del humor, recordemos que el directivo comenzó hace 17 años con el remake de “El amanecer de los muertos” y desde ese momento ha estado ofuscado con este género de cintas. Algo que resaltar es que para recrear la ciudad en ruinas de Las Vegas, las escenas fueron rodadas en los casinos abandonados de Atlantic City, aparte de que la inspiración del directivo son películas simbólicas de la ciencia ficción como “Aliens” y “Scape from New York“.

“Me obsesionó la idea de las reglas admitidas en el planeta de los zombies y cree un escenario en el que poder jugar con estas reglas y tópicos”. – Snyder Dave Bautista afirma que tenía tiempo deseando trabajar con Snyder, en verdad desde el momento en que vio la película “300“, con lo que contactó con el directivo, pero al comienzo no estaba interesado en grabar una película de zombies. Lo que lo hizo cambiar de parecer es la mezcla de géneros y el personaje que le sería asignado, si bien asimismo asegura que todas y cada una de las personas implicadas en el proyecto son fabulosas, que en verdad son como una familia.

¿Te quedaste pensando en el tigre zombie que podemos ver en el trailer? Claro, es poquísimo común ver animales zombies en producciones de esta temática, pero Sanyder descubrió que hay más animales zombies y que únicamente hay una especie que no puede ser infectada por el virus. Además de esto afirma que los zombies humanos han evolucionado tanto como el género lo ha hecho. “Los únicos inmunes son los pájaros por el hecho de que tienen su… propio pasado. Si los pájaros pudieran contagiarse tendríamos problemas”. – Snyder Pero esto no será todo, la plataforma de streaming Netflix ya tiene considerablemente más planes para el cosmos de “Ejército de los muertos“, estos incluyen una precuela dirigida por Matthias Schweighöfer, cuya historia está centrada en el personaje que interpreta en esta película, Dieter Lwiding, por determinado su rodaje acabó en el mes de diciembre.

Otro título que se aúna a este cosmos es una serie estilo anime de nombre “Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas” que tiene sitio al comienzo de la pandemia y contará exactamente cómo estos zombies llegaron a desarrollar toda esa agilidad y capacidad de organización.

Esto indudablemente es excelente, Snyder nos alienta a no perder la pista de las aventuras que van a tener sitio en este cosmos que según parece nos sostendrá al filo del asiento y nos va a contar todo lo que hay mas allá de “Ejército de los muertos“. Read the full article
