number 9 xxx
return of xander cage there are no more
Patriots just rebel tyrants so which are
you
I’m xxx the original xxx seemed poised
to jumpstart a blockbuster franchise I
noticed you have three X’s tattooed on
the back of your neck
I think that’s rather appropriate that’s
you looking at three strikes when Vin
Diesel walked away from the initial
sequel though the studio took the series
in a different direction
needless to say that really didn’t work
out miss me we opted diesel is finally
back in action for the return of xander
cage which follows the athletes turned
super spy on another explosive mission
the diesel driven Fast and Furious
franchise has only gotten better over
time
so let’s hope that triple acts can
follow in the same footsteps I could
definitely make that work
number eight Emerald City Irish more
from the 1939 classic – wicked – oz the
great and powerful elf frank baum’s
immortal book series has been reimagined
time after time even if Emerald City is
late to the party the show’s producers
promise an utterly unique take on The
Wizard of Oz follow the brick road to
the Emerald City who is it this thin ice
wizard take me home visionary filmmaker
Tarsem Singh directs all 10 episodes of
this fantasy series which transports
Dorothy Gale to a much darker side of
the rainbow with a grittier and edgy er
tone it’s safe to say that we definitely
aren’t in Kansas anymore
definitely not Kansas

number seven run the jewels three bye
run the jewels the first two studio
albums from this alternative hip-hop duo
comprised of killer Mike and LP received
almost universal acclaim based on early
bus run the jewels three could very well
be another gem the album’s first single
talked to me was released last October
through the Adult Swim’s singles program
[Music]
the tracklist will also include legend
has it both of which have been met with
a positive response from fans and
critics
if these three singles are any
indication there’s little doubt that run
the jewels will go for the gold to
complete the trilogy I’ll put a bunny
like jewels say something funny your
bunnies go pull you got a baby to shoot
you could rule number six the founder I
know what you’re thinking while it
received a limited release in December
the founder won’t be getting a wide
release until January while on the heels
of the oscar-winning Birdman and
spotlight Michael Keaton stars as Ray
Kroc the charismatic businessman who
turned McDonald’s into a billion-dollar
fast-food chain exactly with its
revolutionary the founder focuses on
Crocs partnership with the McDonald
brothers who apparently couldn’t see the
full potential of their creation
directed by John Lee Hancock of The
Blind Side the film just might have
audiences saying I’m loving it
that glorious name McDonald’s I had a
habit you don’t have it you sure about
that
number five taboo I attended mr.
Delaney’s funeral and a ghost appeared a
son we all thought dead in Africa James
because I lately after reinventing the
role of Max Rockatansky and earning an
Oscar nomination for his performance in
the revenant Tom Hardy has been on an
unstoppable winning streak
all right Darwin’s a Spurs dab with any
luck this British miniseries will be yet
another stellar addition to his
ever-expanding resume Hardy takes center
stage as James keziah Delaney a
rebellious adventurer who challenges the
East India Company by starting his own
shipping Empire with other big names
like Steven Knight and Ridley Scott also
attached to the project taboo sounds
like a must watched television event a
very dangerous man number four split
don’t worry he knows what you’re here
for
he’s not allowed to touch him over the
years M night Shyamalan has gone from
being one of the most promising
filmmakers in Hollywood to one of the
worst are you joking
however the director had something of a
comeback in 2015 with the visit we are
keeping our fingers crossed that
Shyamalan will continue to redeem
himself with split a thematic follow-up
to unbreakable this thriller has James
McAvoy as an uneven man with 23
different personalities split has
already received mostly positive reviews
from critics suggesting the channel on
might have regained his mojo the world
will understand now the beast is real
number three Resident Evil 7 biohazard
you were right I did lie to you I
shouldn’t have all I can say is that if
you get this
stay away this survival horror franchise
might have peeked over a decade ago but
fans are still optimistic that Resident
Evil 7 biohazard will return the series
to its former glory
the story focuses on newcomer Ethan
winters a civilian who winds up in a
creepy mansion while searching for his
missing life
the first main Resident Evil game to
utilize a first-person perspective
biohazard could potentially take the
thrills to a whole new level as a bonus
for ps4 owners the game is also
compatible with the PlayStation VR
headset for extra scares this was
supposed to be a very special feast boy
number two a series of unfortunate
events good morning
I am Stefan no he’s afternoon and true
Count Olaf while the film franchise
never got off the ground
Erik second character the miserable
misadventures of violet Klaus and sunny
will live again as a Netflix original
series as much as we loved Jim Carrey as
Count Olaf Neil Patrick Harris seems
equally well suited to play the
dastardly villain hello hello hello
children
the same can be said about director
Barry Sonnenfeld who previously helped
the men in black and Adams family movies
appropriately premiering on Friday the
13th a series of unfortunate events will
hopefully deliver a bad beginning but
you know in a good way
carpe diem seize the children seize the
day
I said be
number one Sherlock series for some
things coming benedict cumberbatch maybe
a big movie star now but Sherlock Holmes
remains his most iconic role it’s been
almost three years since the Sherlock
series 3 finale dropped a major bomb
shell Sherlock is actually a girl’s name
it’s not what’s worth the try while the
emmy-winning abominable bride special
held us over there are still several
mysteries that need answers manages
knows the subject upon which I’m
dwelling on for starters how will the
late Ginny Moriarty toy with Sherlock
and Watson from beyond the grave with
the first episode airing on January 1st
we can’t think of a better way to ring
in the New Year the roads we walk have
demons beneath and yours have been
waiting for a very long time do you
