PACIFIC RIM: UPRISING SCI-FI/ACTION PG-13

After the events of Captain America: Civil War, King T'Challa returns home to the reclusive, technologically advanced African nation of Wakanda to serve as his country's new leader. However, T'Challa soon finds that he is challenged for the throne from factions within his own country. When two foes conspire to destroy Wakanda, the hero known as Black Panther must team up with C.I.A. agent Everett K. Ross and members of the Dora Milaje, Wakanadan special forces, to prevent Wakanda from being dragged into a world war. Excitement is running rather high for the Black Panther, and if the feature previews are smaller indicators of the full movie experience then we are in for a truly epic Marvel action adventure. While at the moment very little is known about the intricate plot details concerning Star Wars: Episode VII – The Last Jedi, what we can piece together is this exciting new episode is a direct sequel of the The Force Awakens. Having taken her first steps into a larger world in Force Awakens, we are eager to bear witness to Rey as she continues her epic journey with Finn, Poe, and Luke Skywalker in the next chapter of the saga. We have many questions concerning the potential new direction for Finns character, who in fact is Rey's father, is she related to Kyo Ren in some way and does like Luke Skywalker re-establish the Jedi counsel, beginning with Rey? We shall find out December 15, 2017. This latest coming of age adventure has us intrigued by its boy and wolf companionship journey. While on his first hunt with his tribe's most elite group, a young man is injured and left for dead. Awakening to find himself broken and alone, he must learn to survive and navigate the harsh and unforgiving wilderness. Reluctantly taming a lone wolf abandoned by its pack, he learns to rely on it, and they become unlikely allies, enduring countless dangers and overwhelming odds to find their way home before the deadly winter arrives.
