I'm Still Standing - SING

Illumination

I love the soundtracks from Illumination's SING movies. The songs are so fun to sing along to.

SING is currently available on Netflix.

Drum Tao

Tao Entertainment

We watched the most amazing performance last night. Drum Tao, a group of incredible, acrobatic, Japanese musicians, put on what may be the most joyous performance I've ever seen. The performers truly enjoy creating their art and the Taiko drums are so powerful that they literally shake the building.

If you have the chance, you should definitely see them while they are on tour.

The Mandalorian and Grogu Trailer

Lucasfilm

A new trailer has arrived for Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu and it looks fantastic. The movie looks just as action-packed and playful as the series.

Here's the official synopsis from Lucasfilm: 

The evil Empire has fallen, and Imperial warlords remain scattered throughout the galaxy. As the fledgling New Republic works to protect everything the Rebellion fought for, they have enlisted the help of legendary Mandalorian bounty hunter Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and his young apprentice Grogu (as himself). 

The Mandalorian and Grogu arrives in theaters on May 22.

Based on Marvel Comics’ Spider-Man Noir, the “Spider-Noir” live-action series tells the story of Ben Reilly, a private investigator in 1930s New York. Played by Nicolas Cage, the burnt-out private eye is forced to grapple with his past life as the city’s one and only super hero.

Cage is joined by Lamorne Morris, portraying journalist Robbie Robertson, Li Jun Li’s Cat Hardy, a nightclub songstress and femme fatale, and Karen Rodriguez, who plays Ben Reilly’s assistant detective, Janet.

I've always loved Sherlock Holmes. The books, the movies, the various series, I've enjoyed them all. The latest incarnation is Guy Ritchie's Young Sherlock. It looks quite fun.

Here's the official synopsis:

From Guy Ritchie, witness the legendary origin story of Sherlock Holmes in this irreverent, action-laden mystery that follows the iconic detective’s early adventures. Sherlock Holmes is a disgraced young man – raw and unfiltered – when he finds himself wrapped up in a murder case that threatens his liberty. His first ever case unravels a globe-trotting conspiracy, culminating in an explosive showdown that changes his life forever. Unfolding in 1870s Oxford and adventuring abroad, the series will expose the early antics of the anarchic adolescent who is yet to evolve into Baker Street’s most renowned resident.

Young Sherlock arrives on Amazon Prime Video on March 4th.
