Bad Boys apparently really are for life as it seems that this action-packed franchise isn’t ending anytime soon with Sony Pictures’ Bad Boys 4 set to reach theatres in just a couple months. This series, centered on detectives Mike Lowery and Marcus Burnett of the Miami Police Department, has already produced three blockbuster films that have grossed over $840 million as well as a spinoff television show, L.A.’s Finest, making it one of the most successful buddy-cop action-comedy series in history. The most recent film, Bad Boys for Life, was one of the last movies to hit theaters before the pandemic shut them all down and was able to be a critical and box office success – so why would the franchise stop now? Will Smith and Martin Lawrence (Lowery and Burnett) are back for the fourth film, and this is music to the ears of fans of the series since...

It has been said a number of times that Helldivers 2 is a game where things keep changing every now and then. Players are constantly fighting this ever-going galactic war against some very relentless enemy forces. One thing that keeps this game ahead of everything else out there is the fact that it’s not scripted. This means the things that happen in it are mostly unplanned.
The dynamic nature of this game means players can expect sudden reinforcements. The tide of war can change at any moment. As a result of these things, they can end up losing some wars that they were sure they would win at some point. And that’s why a recent win sounds even more exciting.

A new kaiju movie is coming to Netflix from Norway, and it looks like a blast. Today we have a trailer for "Troll," and we're not talking about the oh-so-delightful denizens of social media who will argue with and threaten you over even simple statements such as, "I like cheese." No, these are the trolls of folktales and legends, and they're much bigger than you might expect from the beginning of this trailer.
"Troll" comes to us from director Roar Uthaug (who also has a story by credit for the film). He's responsible for "The Wave" and 2018's "Tomb Raider" starring Alicia Vikander and Dominic West. The script was written by Espen Aukan ("Baby Boom").
When I say this is a kaiju movie, it's because this troll is huge, but also because the human characters discover a giant footprint, leading the dismissive officials to ask if this is King Kong.

I was super excited about Bad Boys For Life when director Joe Carnahan was on board to helm the film. I’ve always enjoyed his crazy filmmaking style, and it would have worked great for this franchise. Unfortunately, Will Smith didn’t feel the same way. He and Carnahan clashed on the vision and direction of the film, and because of that, Carnahan ended up dropping out of the project.
While talking to Collider, the filmmaker talked about what happened and what led to him leaving. According to him the script he wrote for the film was solid, but it just didn’t work for Smith. It wasn’t what he was looking for in the film.
Carnahan doesn’t hold any kind of grudge against Smith, it’s just the way things played out:
“I love Will, he’s a great guy. I just know myself. And I thought...

I enjoyed the first two films in the franchise, and I’m really hoping that this one will end up being good. The story will follow detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Bennett (Martin Lawrence) as they find themselves up against a drug cartel.
Here are the story details that were released:
The new installment centers on the Miami Pd and its elite Ammo team’s attempt to take down Armando Armas (Scipio), head of a drug cartel. Armando is a cold-blooded killer with a vicious,...

The long-awaited third film will be called Bad Boys For Life...
Mike Lowery and Marcus Burnett are (almost) back, and this time it's personal (probably). Bad Boys 3 is picking up steam now, 15 years on from Michael Bay's action-packed sequel, with stars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence returning to their roles, along with Joey Pants as their weary police Captain, naturally.
New story details for the third film have now arrived from a fairly reliable source in Production Weekly (via Cbr) ahead of cameras rolling:

Armando is a cold-blooded killer with a vicious, taunting nature. He is committed to the work of the cartel and is dispatched by his mother to kill Mike (Will Smith).

“We ride together, we die together… Bad Boys for life.”
Detectives Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett will soon be back in business, as Martin Lawrence recently signed on for Bad Boys 3 (official title: Bad Boys For Life) alongside fellow series stalwart Will Smith.
The fast-talking duo were last seen on the big screen together back in Michael Bay’s Bad Boys sequel, which arrived in 2003. It’s been a long time coming then, but the franchise is finally moving forward with its next outing and Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah will both be calling the shots from behind the lens, after the creative pair replaced Joe Carnahan in the director’s chair(s).
Suffice it to say, it’s been a frustrating and meandering journey for Bad Boys For Life so far, but now that production’s on the verge of getting underway, we have the very first synopsis for the threequel,...

The following is Britney Spears' new song "Ooh La La" which will play over the end credits for The Smurfs 2 and as long as it's the first musical cue before the credits roll it has a shot at an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song. So as unlikely as the headline may seem, it's not altogether impossible even though the song is... well, not very goodc Then again, if the Oscars did interpretive dance renditions of all the Song nominees again this year, I might just have to push for this one. "Ooh La La" was produced by Dr. Luke, Ammo and Cirkut. The film hits theaters on July 31. Here are the lyrics in case the auto tuned baby voice was too hard to understand. You don't have to look like a movie star Ooh I think you're good just the way you are Tell me if you...
