To finish in the epic style, check out the second trailer for epic fantasy adventure THE SEVENTH SON which will arrive into cinemas after a very long delay next February.

Kit Harington, Alicia Vikander and Djimon Hounsou also star.
Reign looks interesting. It appears Queen Mary is going to have her hands full!
ReplyDeleteyep, she was the queen only of Scotland in the first season, but now she is the queen of France too :) and has a nasty mother in law too :)
DeleteWow! Intriguing trailers. Thanks for sharing, Dez.
ReplyDeletebe welcome!
DeleteI'm not so sure about ripping off Dirty Dancing with that tagline for Reign? "No one backs a queen into a corner." Haha! Hollywood appears to be obsessed with royalty this year...
ReplyDeletewell, you know, you get the best soap from royalty...
DeleteSuch amazing pictures. These characters and their outfits make one feel like they're in another time and place.
ReplyDeleteif you mean the REIGN characters :) they're generally lost in time when it comes to costumes, they mix modern high fashion gowns with the period costumes without any guidelines
DeleteReign's looking nice, and Genghis Khan could be a wonderful subject!
ReplyDeleteREIGN has been a superficial but rather fun show :)
DeleteSince I haven't followed the REIGN series, that trailer was confusing for me. The second one looked epic. Love Jeff Bridges.
ReplyDeleteSEVENTH SON should be really fun, although I really didn't like Jeff's accent in it.... sounds like a Texas ranger not a wizard :)
DeleteIt is said that since Khan was with so many women and had some many offspring that about a 200th of the world population is related to him.
ReplyDeleteyep, I've heard that, and it is also close to the truth that he killed, butchered or burnt down about the same percent of all people.... he had a habit of destroying the cities he invaded and killing all of the population
DeleteI have several friends that watch Reign. I have been meaning to sit down and catch up on it, but so far, it's on the back burner. Some day I will get to all these good shows *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI think you might like it.... you just have to watch it in a relaxed way.... since it doesn't really stick to the history
DeleteI think any show on the CW should be watched for the eye candy. Not the historical accuracy lol.
Deleteooh this one sure does have tones of eye candy... and now my most beloved Craig Parker is also coming to the second season....
DeleteAh... a 3D English language spectacle. Well, why not.
ReplyDeleteindeed
DeleteThough I would be even more impressed by a 4D English language spectacle.
Deletewhat's the fourth dimension?
DeleteI'd have to send my beavers your way if I told you that...
Deleteonly if they leave their glands at your place.....
DeleteGood point.
Deletealways
