The Final Season of Andor Looks Intense

Andor Season 2 Trailer

A new trailer has arrived for season 2 of the Star Wars series Andor and it looks intense. Cassian Andor has now joined the Rebellion and they are up against incredible odds. 


Here's the official synopsis from Lucasfilm:

While Season 1 followed Cassian’s reluctant journey from cynical nobody to revolutionary volunteer, the long-awaited conclusion in Andor Season 2 will see the characters and their relationships intensify as the horizon of war draws near and Cassian becomes a key player in the Rebel Alliance. Everyone will be tested and, as the stakes rise, the betrayals, sacrifices and conflicting agendas will become profound. 

Rife with political intrigue, danger, tension, and high stakes, the thrill is a prequel to "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story", which portrayed a heroic band of rebels who steal the plans to the Empire’s weapon of mass destruction — the Death Star — setting the stage for the events of the original 1977 film, "Star Wars: A New Hope". Andor sets the clock back five years from the events of Rogue One to tell the story of the film’s hero, Cassian Andor, and his transformation into a rebel hero on his way to an epic destiny. 

Andor Season 2 stars Diego Luna (Cassian Andor), Stellan Skarsgård (Luthen Rael), Genevieve O’Reilly (Senator Mon Mothma), Denise Gough (Dedra Meero), Kyle Soller (Syril Karn), Adria Arjona (Bix Caleen), Faye Marsay (Vel Sartha) , Varada Sethu (Cinta Kaz), Elizabeth Dulau (Kleya Marki), Alan Tudyk (K-2SO), with Ben Mendelsohn (Director Orson Krennic), and Forest Whitaker (Saw Gerrera).

The final trailer for A Minecraft Movie is here and it looks so funny. Steve and Garrett are in for one over-the-top, insanely ridiculous adventure.


Here's the official synopsis from Warner Bros: 

Welcome to the world of Minecraft, where creativity doesn’t just help you craft, it’s essential to one’s survival! Four misfits—Garrett “The Garbage Man” Garrison (Jason Momoa), Henry (Sebastian Hansen), Natalie (Emma Myers) and Dawn (Danielle Brooks)—find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they’ll have to master this world (and protect it from evil things like Piglins and Zombies, too) while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve (Jack Black). Together, their adventure will challenge all five to be bold and to reconnect with the qualities that make each of them uniquely creative…the very skills they need to thrive back in the real world.

Kakamora Easter Eggs

Kakamora Easter Eggs

For the past 14 years, the Grand Floridian has been home to an incredible display of hand crafted Easter eggs each spring. The styles range from the the ridiculous to the truly beautiful, but all are meticulously crafted by Cast Members out of chocolate and sugar. Some eggs return from year to year, while new eggs are added as well. This Kakamora display from 2024 was one of my favorites. It's so playful and silly. This year's display will be available for viewing from March 18 to April 20.

Here's the official synopsis from Pixar: 

This summer, moviegoers will meet Elio, an 11-year-old whose biggest wish is to get abducted by aliens, as well as his Aunt Olga, and Glordon, Elio’s unexpected first friend who happens to be an alien.

For centuries, people have called out to the universe looking for answers—in Disney and Pixar’s all-new feature film “Elio,” the universe calls back! The cosmic misadventure introduces Elio, a space fanatic with an active imagination and a huge alien obsession. So, when he’s beamed up to the Communiverse, an interplanetary organization with representatives from galaxies far and wide, Elio’s all in for the epic undertaking. Mistakenly identified as Earth’s leader, Elio must form new bonds with eccentric alien lifeforms, navigate a crisis of intergalactic proportions, and somehow discover who and where he is truly meant to be. The film features the voices of Yonas Kibreab as Elio, Zoe Saldaña as Aunt Olga, Remy Edgerly as Glordon, Brad Garrett as Lord Grigon, Jameela Jamil as Ambassador Questa and Shirley Henderson as OOOOO.
 
Elio arrives in theaters on June 20th.
