Black Panther is still blowing the doors off the place. Is DC gearing up for anything that can compete with Marvel’s slate? Is Game Night too easy to associate with Will Farrell? Plus, we’ve got a list full of movies of people trying to get to the top of

Andy’s making drinks. Make sure to see Black Panther on the biggest screen you can for the credits. We’ve got trailers that good enough to be templates for iMovie… which means exactly what you think… and a list of movies made in the not-1920s!

Steve’s on his Oscar catchup binge. Is Cloverfield yet another casualty in the Netflix dumping ground? Could Disney maybe be a little less open with their Star Wars plans? We’ve got a set of solid trailers and a list of movies that is largely unrelated to

Burnt

To start off a new year of Trailer Rewind Steve and JJ sit down for a meal with John Wells’ 2015 film Burnt. This was Pete’s pick because he just loves films set in restaurant kitchens almost as much as he loves zombie films. If only there were a film that combined those two genres!

Faults is one of those rare exceptions that has found the perfect cast.
