It's TIME!! Ready for those old, familiar chills to return? Say what you will about the folks crafting the new Star Wars films... they sure can cut a trailer!! As expected, this one is gorgeous, solemn, epic in scope, jaw dropping and, on top of all of that positivity, extremely painful, as we've got 8 looooong months to wait til this one reaches theaters. EIGHT MONTHS!!! Agony of the geeks.

Thor: Ragnarok... Where Everything Goes to Hell
Thor seems to be a tricky subject for Marvel Studios. Being a long time fan of Marvel Comics, in my opinion, they've yet to capture the fun and sense of high adventure that comes with travelling to Asgard and we've absolutely not met even 10% of the creatures and colorful characters that reside there. Director Taika Waititi Looks like he's going to change all that. With glimpses of Hela decimating Asgard, Executioner letting loose with human artillery, The Valkyries taking on Hela, and every shot looking like amazing concept art and/or Jack Kirby's last wish, I have a feeling this is the first Thor movie i'm going to be going completely insane over. CHECK OUT THE TEASER TRAILER!!!

The films popularity spawned several sequels, solidifying Rambo as one of the biggest action heroes of the decade.
Now, PCS Collectibles is proud to announce our Rambo 1:3 Scale mixed media statue.
“While there have been plenty of licensed products based on Rambo over the years, none have matched the quality and presence which PCS strives for in our collectibles” says PCS President Jerry Macaluso “ For this statue we’ve gathered some of the industry’s most talented sculptors and costumers to bring to life one of Rambo’s most iconic scenes”

Stephen King's IT Pushes Beyond Quaint TV Memories
Growing up, I loved Stephen King novels. To say I devoured them is an understatement. That kid in the Monster Squad movie with the red T shirt? May as well have been me..minus the monster fighting. They were my buddies. While the movie adaptions of King's books started off strong, there are a handful of misses that often overshadow the good. I like to think the TV adaption for IT lands somewhere in the middle, triggering a horror fan's nostalgia and a love of all things Tim Curry dominating over the plodding pace, odd grown up reunion and devastatingly unscary finale.
Now..Warner Bros' New Line Cinema feature film looks to trigger your fear reflex. There's so much packed into IT that should scare the holy hell out of anyone reading, and so, the movie adaption should make a select few run from the theater weeping. WE CAN HOPE!! Check out the first teaser below...

Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2 Set for March 9, 2018 Release
Wreck-It Ralph is escaping out of his arcade and into the expansive universe of the internet next year when “Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2” hits the big screen. Dave Hollis, head of distribution for The Walt Disney Studios, revealed the much-anticipated sequel’s title and told CinemaCon attendees that Jane Lynch and Jack McBrayer would be returning to the roster.
Also returning are the team behind the original “Wreck-It Ralph,” who won an Oscar® last month for Walt Disney Animation Studios’ billion-dollar-box-office-blockbuster “Zootopia.” Directors Rich Moore (“Zootopia,” “Wreck-It Ralph,” “The Simpsons”) and Phil Johnston (writer, “Wreck-It Ralph,” “Zootopia,” “Cedar Rapids”), and producer Clark Spencer (“Zootopia,” “Wreck-It Ralph,” “Bolt”) are hard at work on the movie. “To take these characters we love and have them enter the enormous world of the internet has given us so much to explore,” said Moore. “Our production team has been hard at work designing a world that takes something we all think we know – the internet – but shows it in a whole new, imaginative way.”
