“We always knew they would come back.” Or did we? Well, at least I never believed we’d actually get a sequel to the beloved 1996 hit Independence Day. But here we are, nearly twenty years later, getting our first look!

Independence Day: Resurgence reunites the original cast from the first film, minus Will Smith (although we do have a new actor, Jessie Usher, playing the son of Simth’s character), and deals with the aftermath of the first film and what Earth has been up for the last twenty years. In a nutshell, Earth anticipated another alien attack might happen at some point, so we used alien technology to prepare for the inevitable. After all, you’ve got to figure there are more out there, and that they’d probably want revenge on the citizens of planet Earth for what happened in the first film. Simple enough.

Hit the jump to check out the first trailer for the film. It looks surprisingly great!

The trailers just keep coming, and this one tops ’em all. The first trailer for director Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Apocalypse is here, and it is wonderful. The film has a lot to live up to after the genius execution of Singer’s X-Men: Days of Future Past (especially The Rogue Cut), but if this trailer is any indication of how good Apocalypse will be, it shouldn’t be a problem. This looks fantastic! Hit the jump to check it out!

The first trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows has made its way online. This trailer really looks like it’s going for the same vibe as the last film (which I enjoyed, although I was disappointed in the under-usage of Shredder), so if you’re a fan of what director Jonathan Liebesman did with the first movie, odds are you’ll love what Dave Green will do with the sequel, especially since a ton of fan favorites are making their debut here, including Casey Jones! Check it out below!

An amazing new teaser for Disney’s The BFG, starring Ruby Barnhill, Bill Hader and Mark Rylance, has landed online, and it comes to me totally unexpected! Based on the popular Roald Dahl book, and directed by none other than Steven Spielberg, this story tells us of a Big Friendly Giant than takes a little girl away off to “the wonders and perils of Giant Country.” It hits theaters next summer. Check it out after the jump!

When the first short teaser for director J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens hit the web last year on Black Friday, it practically broke the internet with fan speculation: “Why is John Boyega in that Storm Trooper armor?” “Why is he breathing so hard?” “Where is Daisy Ridley going on that speeder?” “What is up with that new lightsaber?” “Oh! The Millennium Falcon!” We had been craving to see this footage ever since Episodes VII-IX were announced in 2012, so anything we got to see was big news.

Then of course the second trailer that debuted at Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, California last April took that wonderful teaser and stomped on it with even better footage that tugged all the right strings of wonder and nostalgia, and made grown men cry with our first look at Harrison Ford as Han Solo, uttering the words “Chewie, we’re home.”

So I’ve been asking myself how in the world this third trailer can top that. Not that I didn’t believe it could, but I’ve been wondering for months what the next trailer could show us that that would just bring it home and send us all into utter Star Wars fanboy madness. Let’s just say that, while nothing in this new trailer tops Han Solo’s moment in the last trailer, this new one packs quite a punch, and gives us something on par with that moment…

The first U.S. and U.K. trailers for director Paul McGuigan’s Victor Frankenstein have hit the web, and they both definitely depict a dark, yet fun take on the Frankenstein story for a modern audience. As Collider pointed out, this appears to be very reminiscent of the tone and sense of adventure that Guy Ritchie’s take on Sherlock Holmes first brought to the screen back in 2009, as I’m sure you’ll agree once you watch the trailers. However, the film does appear to be darker of course, fitting the subject matter perfectly. As a die-hard fan of the classic Universal Monsters, this actually looks really good!

Hit the jump to check out both trailers!

And the trailers just keep coming!

What do you get when you cross a Universal Studios theme park with dinosaurs? Jurassic World, that’s what! Today, Universal released a brand new global trailer for the Colin Trevorrow-directed film, which does go into a little more of the plot than what we’ve seen before, but mainly focuses on showing us tons of action involving these beastly, prehistoric predators chasing down the tourists. It is both every theme park owner’s dream, and every theme park owner’s nightmare all rolled into one, and you can now get an even greater glimpse of it than ever before below!

Okay, so Star Wars: Episode VII has broken away from the franchise’s traditional May release time frame, so what else is out there in the meantime that can keep movie geeks at bay until The Force Awakens this December? Oh wait, what did you say? Killer robots from the future? Avenging superheroes? Dinosaurs unleashed in a theme park?! A dude named Max that’s apparently still raving mad?!

YES, my friends, there is plenty to look forward to to hold us over, and you can read all about it in PopcornMonster.com’s top 10 list of movies to see this summer!

Well, Star Wars isn’t the only franchise getting massive hype this week. Zack Snyder’s followup to 2013’s Man of Steel finally has a full trailer out, giving us our first real official look at Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, as well as our first real idea of how the film will play out. Just how do Superman and Batman meet? Why do they fight? How do they come together to help form Justice League (essentially DC’s equivalent to Marvel’s Avengers)?

Sure, comic book fans love Frank Miller’s Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and know it inside and out, and yes, this film draws from that material. But the trailer seems to show us something much different than the comic I think. But why are you sitting there letting me tell you all of this? Hit the jump to see for yourself!
