Comedy: Mike Epps Stars In ABC’s “Uncle Buck” Series (Trailer)
Heard some folks are upset about this redo of “Uncle Buck.” C’mon… stop. John Candy (star of the movie version) was hilarious. Mike Epps IS hilarious. LAUGH at entertaining situation comedy. It is what both would want. That said, rest in peace, John… and Mike, you better bring it!
Based on the hit movie of the same name, Uncle Buck (Mike Epps) is a fun loving but irresponsible guy who needs a job and a place to stay. By happy coincidence, his nieces and nephew’s Nanny has just quit and his brother and sister-in-law need his help. His unconventional personality just may make him the right fit for the family and they may be the answer to his problems, too.
Coming to ABC this Fall.

“Resurrecting Black Wall Street” (Trailer)
The term “Black Wall Street” has been thrown around by a lot of rappers from time to time. The reality is the term Black Wall Street speaks to the amazing times of Black Prosperity in Tulsa Oklahoma in the 1920’s. The Greenwood neighborhood located in Tulsa had a number of Black doctors, dentists, bankers, and business owners. They spent money amongst themselves had their own bus companies and were doing better than most of the whites in Tulsa. It all came to a crashing bloody ending when false accusations were made regarding a white woman saying she was attacked by black men from the neighborhood. This led to the first time the US government bombed it’s own people yes you read that correctly the Feds dropped a bomb and destroyed the neighborhood. If you didn’t know the GAP Band is from Tulsa, OK one of their famous songs is “You dropped the Bomb on me” and you thought that was just talking about the ladies.
Well Your Black World Films has a documentary coming out detailing Black Wall Street and how we can make our modern day Black Wall Street. Check out the trailer and CLICK HEREÂ to Pre- order the movie!
“Vacation” (Trailer)
Okay, somebody on here remembers the Griswalds’ hilarity back in the day in theaters. Clark (Chevy Chase) and the family… stupid good fun. Well, we have a new generation fam. Ed Helms is at the head (married to cutie Christina Applegate). His family on vacation is just as, if not more, funny. But so far this version has the edge… literally, a LOT edgier than the original Gris bunch!
Maaan, just check out the RED BAND trailer above. And remember, when you stumble across a ‘natural spring’ on vacation… READ THE DAMN SIGNAGE!
“Vacation” is in movie in theaters July 29, 2015.
Black Mass (Trailer)
Couldn’t play those mafia ‘just kidding’ games. Whew. Things get too intense too fast to just laugh it off. Watch the trailer… ‘just saying… can get you buried.’
The true story of Whitey Bulger, the brother of a state senator and the most infamous violent criminal in the history of South Boston, who became an FBI informant to take down a Mafia family invading his turf.
Starring Johnny Depp as the lead (Bulger).
Tomorrowland (Trailer)
You wanted to see “Tomorrowland”… Well here it comes!
Yep, it’s coming alright (to the silver screen on May 22, 2015). Looks like Disney has taken all its Marvel Universe movie and TV-making powers, combined them with the adept storytelling already possessed (and learned on producing TV like ‘Once Upon A Time’) and crammed it into yet another late spring / early summer blockbuster. Whew! Combine this robot-fighting near-future set fantasy and “Avengers: Age of Ultron” dropping just weeks earlier; and you understand what a beast mode big screen juggernaut Disney is. Not hurting the effort, at all, is major major Hollywood A-list talent (George Clooney) jumping on the scale with all his weight; giving serious effort to what looks to be an epic rock’em sock’em watching experience! Dollar up for the big bucket of popcorn, extra butter, super-duper sodas and whatnot… and the iMax experience… for this one. Then strap in, as Casey (Britt Robertson) and Frank (Clooney) go all in; taking on killer robots as they take you to “Tomorrowland” (trailer above)!
Featuring a screenplay by “Lost†writer and co-creator Damon Lindelof and Brad Bird, from a story by Lindelof & Bird & Jeff Jensen, “Tomorrowland†promises to take audiences on a thrill ride of nonstop adventures through new dimensions that have only been dreamed of.
The film also stars Hugh Laurie as brilliant scientist David Nix, Raffey Cassidy, Tim McGraw, Judy Greer, Kathryn Hahn, Keegan-Michael Key and Thomas Robinson.
All that, too?? Yeah, this looks goooood.
In My Father’s House (Trailer)
Chicago’s Che Smith, widely known as Grammy-winning artist and songwriter Rhymefest, spent the majority of his childhood without his father. “In My Father’s House” documents Rhymefest’s search for his father. He found him, but as the trailer above more than hints, what happens from that point is no fairy tale. A boy who suffered through youth knowing that a father he never really knew simply walked out on his mother and him, finds that upon walking back into his father’s life, he may have to be the more ‘parental’ of the two. Looks to be a stirring film; currently playing at Tribeca Film Festival.
Freetown (Trailer)
Damn. As we were getting into the Golden Era in The States, these missionaries were just trying to live in the midst of a civil war. You ever hear the one about the mad gunman that burst into a church service threatening to kill all the Christians? All but a few ran out of the worship hall. Then the gunman sat down and told the reverend that he could continue preaching… to the true believers that remained. If that was ever true, these folks would be the ones still sitting there.
A group of native Liberian missionaries make a desperate cross-country trip through their war torn country to save one of their own.
Powerful imagery driven by storyline, dialog and acting more so than special effects and tech. “Freetown” is very much worth a look! Check out the trailer above.
