San Diego Comic-Con just wrapped up this weekend and there were some incredible trailers released! I put together a list of my top 5 movie trailers for you. Enjoy!

This weekend at San Diego Comic-Con, Chadwick Boseman (T’Challa/Black Panther from “Captain America: Civil War”) unveiled a sneak peek of a bonus feature clip from the in-home release of “Captain America: Civil War.” This is the first piece of bonus material to ever be revealed from this year’s biggest blockbuster and it is amazing! The clip is from the 60-minute, behind-the-scenes featurette titled “United We Stand, Divided We Fall – The Making of Captain America: Civil War Part 1 & 2.” It showcases how Marvel selected Black Panther and features interviews with all-star cast members who explain what it was like to welcome an all-new character to the MCU family. I am dying to watch the rest of this. As most of you know, I am a HUGE Marvel fan, so this is a big deal for me.

Unfortunately, I was unable to make it to San Diego Comic-Con this weekend, but I have been following along as closely as possible. I will be at New York Comic-Con this October so be sure to come back here for my coverage on that. As most of you know, I am a total Marvel Comics nerd. I love Marvel and what they have been doing with the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) over the last few years. When Doctor Strange was first announced, I admittedly was not as excited as I was for Guardians of the Galaxy (and Inhumans which has since been pushed back indefinitely).

Oh how I wish I was going to be at San Diego Comic-Con this weekend. One day, I will make it there. This October I will be heading to New York Comic-Con, but it just isn’t the same. If you are going to be there, be sure to stop by the Fox Booth (#4229) for Key Franchises, Fan Favorites, Limited Sets, and Hot Exclusives! Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will cater to film fans of all ages and genres with a top-tier and wide-range of Comic-Con exclusives including a unique challenge room at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con.

Hey everyone, while I was out of town in Canada (if you are following me on Instagram and Snapchat, you saw some awesome photos!), the Beauty and the Beast teaser poster was released. I did share it quickly on social media, but wanted to post it here too for those of you that missed out. I am sure that by now most of you have seen it – but it is totally worth checking out again. It is gorgeous! The detail – the ice, the rose, the towers in the background, even the lettering – it all makes me so much more excited for this film than I already was (if that is even possible). Belle is still my favorite Princess, ever since I first saw the movie when I was a little girl. I know this stellar cast will do justice to my favorite characters and I just cannot wait until next March!

From acclaimed writer/director Jeff Nichols, Loving celebrates the real-life courage and commitment of an interracial couple, Richard and Mildred Loving (portrayed by Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga), who married and then spent the next nine years fighting for the right to live as a family in their hometown. Their civil rights case, Loving v. Virginia, went all the way to the Supreme Court, which in 1967 reaffirmed the very foundation of the right to marry – and their love story has become an inspiration to couples ever since.

“Queen of Katwe” is the colorful true story of a young girl selling corn on the streets of rural Uganda whose world rapidly changes when she is introduced to the game of chess, and, as a result of the support she receives from her family and community, is instilled with the confidence and determination she needs to pursue her dream of becoming an international chess champion.
