Jackie Chan Rescues a Panda in Cheesy ‘Panda Plan’ Comedy Trailer

"Can this movie star really fight?" Well Go USA has revealed an official trailer for a Chinese comedy called Panda Plan, arriving in US theaters this October. Yet another new martial arts action thriller from China featuring Jackie Chan - playing himself in this movie as an international superstar named Jackie who helps save a panda. The movie is about a rare baby panda with a dark circle around only one eye who becomes a worldwide sensation (it's clearly a CGI animal). The plot involves a rich tycoon from the Middle East who wants to try and steal the cute new panda - hiring a gang of mercenaries to raid the zoo and take the animal. But luckily Jackie Chan is on the scene and soon finds himself in the middle of the action trying to save the cute creature while fighting off the bad guys. The cast also includes Wei Xiang, Shi Ce, Han Yanbo, and Jia Bing. This looks absurdly cheesy and so fake from start to finish. Maybe someone will enjoy it? 🐼 Here's the official US trailer ...

Full Trailer for Polish Crime Thriller ‘Justice’ Starring Olaf Lubaszenko

"You got one week. Then they'll kill the case." Netflix has revealed the full official trailer for the Polish crime thriller film titled Justice (or Napad in Polish), arriving for streaming in October this fall. It's a new film from the duo of director Michał Gazda and producer Magdalena Szwedkowicz - the team behind last year's success of Forgotten Love also on Netflix to watch. Set at the beginning of the 90s (after the communist era ended), a discharged police officer is given a chance to reclaim his old life in exchange for capturing a group responsible for a ruthless bank robbery. The detective must act quickly, as media attention could complicate matters for the new government. Starring Olaf Lubaszenko as the cop, with Jedrzej Hycnar, Wiktoria Gorodecka, and Magdalena Boczarska. This seems like a true crime story from Poland's history, but it also doesn't seem to be based any real case. Still is a captivating, unnerving story to use for a Netflix thriller. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Michal Gazda's film Justice, direct from Netflix's YouTube: In the early ...

We’re still wondering what George Carlin would say 16 years after the comedy legend’s death. Few fought harder for the right to tell jokes without compromise. Like Lenny Bruce before him, Carlin saw the inside of a jail cell for telling “obscene” gags. What would a free speech warrior like Carlin make of Big Tech …
