Avatar: Fire and Ash     HD720p 35MB   HD1080p 86MB
First trailer for the third installment of the 3D CGI franchise, listed to have a running time of 3h 12m, to be in theatres this Christmas, again directed by James Cameron (Titanic, True Lies, The Terminator). Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña)'s family grapples with grief after Neteyam's death, encountering a new, aggressive Na'vi tribe, the Ash People, who are led by the fiery Varang (Oona Chaplin), as the conflict on Pandora escalates and a new moral focus emerges. Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Kate Winslet, Jemaine Clement and Cliff Curtis also return.
The fourth and fifth movie are currently scheduled to be released in 2029 and 2031. I find it hard to believe that this is part of one of the most successful franchises of all time.

One Battle After Another     HD720p 34MB
Second full trailer of the latest movie written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood, Phantom Thread, Inherent Vice). When their evil enemy resurfaces after 16 years, a group of ex-revolutionaries (Leonardo DiCaprio, Benicio del Toro, Sean Penn, Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor) reunites to rescue one of their own's daughter.
Trailer again looks great, but it continues to be difficult to categorise the whole film. Darkly comedic political thriller pared with some family drama. It will be 2h 50m long, so even with this trailer there should still be ample new footage left.

Good Fortune     HD720p 29MB
Variation of a body swap comedy in which a well-meaning but rather inept angel (Keanu Reeves) meddles in the lives of a struggling gig worker (Aziz Ansari) and a wealthy venture capitalist (Seth Rogen). Keke Palmer and Sandra Oh are also part of the cast. It's also written by Ansari and marks his directorial debut.
The cast may make it work. An earlier, funny teaser: HD720p 12MB

The Baltimorons     HD1080p 25MB
Comedic, romantic drama directed by Jay Duplass (Cyrus, Jeff Who Lives at Home) who usually makes films with his brother. After cracking a tooth on Christmas Eve, newly sober Cliff (Michael Strassner) embarks on an adventure through Baltimore with Didi (Liz Larsen), his emergency dentist.
Was very well received at indie festivals.

Spinal Tap II: The End Continues     HD720p 33MB
Forty-one years after the release of the groundbreaking mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, the now estranged bandmates David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls (Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer) are forced to reunite for one final concert. Documentarian Marty Di Bergi (Rob Reiner), who once again tries to capture his favorite metal gods as they contemplate mortality - and the hope that their 12th drummer doesn’t join them in The Great Beyond. There will be a boatload of cameos, Rob Reiner (When Harry Met Sally..., A Few Good Men, The Princess Bride) again directs.
Gives me the opportunity to ask if you knew that the rating scale on IMDb for the first movie goes to 11?
