Frances McDormand

One of our most anticipated films of the fall is Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, the latest from In Bruges and Seven Psychopaths filmmaker Martin McDonagh. By now you’ve probably seen the first trailer, featuring an exceedingly (and delightfully) profane Frances McDormand. The first trailer was awfully hilarious for a premise that serious, and while the newest trailer delivers a bit more drama, it still hasn’t lost that dark sense of humor.

Wes Anderson popped back up last month with a charming holiday-appropriate commercial for H&M, his first new work since 2014’s The Grand Budapest Hotel. It was neat, but a pale substitute for a new feature. Fortunately, Anderson fans (or, as we’re more commonly called, Wes Fan-dersons) can take solace that his next major effort is well on its way: Anderson resurfaced today with a three-minute video in which he introduces the cast and first snippet of footage from his upcoming Isle of Dogs, a stop-motion animated project that returns to the talking-animal precocity of Anderson’s Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Can I buy tickets to Hail, Caesar! yet? Can I preorder the Blu-ray? Too early to add it to my top ten list of the year?

There’s some kind of joke to be made about how it took the arrival of a Spanish-language preview for Pixar’s The Good Dinosaur for us to hear the film’s English-language voice cast in action. This new international trailer also gives us our best look yet at the movie’s actual plot and characters, which is a nice change of pace from the lovely-but-vague early teases.
