Captain America has been out for a week and still nothing huge is coming out. But that doesn’t mean that nothing interesting is coming out. There are two movies I couldn’t choose between for this weeks pick so I cheated and did both! I just want to say something before really starting this blog. I was at work the other day preparing for this and searching the internet for all the movies coming out. I got a different list from Google than IMDB gave me. I then used the IMDB app which gave me a different list than both the IMDB website\u00a0and Google. So please keep in mind that these lists may not be complete but I’ll always try my best to let you know about all the movies coming out each week. On with the show. Here are the list of movies coming out the week of May 13th.<\/p>\n

Billiam’s Pick(s) of the Week:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"MV5BNDQ1NDE5NzQ1NF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwNzA5OTM2NTE@._V1__SX1377_SY761_\"<\/strong>The Lobster:<\/strong><\/em> I’m surprised that Joaquin Phoenix (Gladiator, Her<\/em>)\u00a0isn’t somehow tied to this movie because this seems like just the kind of oddball movie he’d do. This time it’s Colin Farrell (In Bruges, Miami Vice<\/em>) starring in it along side Rachel Weisz (The Lovely Bones, The Mummy<\/em>) in a movie that was probably thought of when the writer was on drugs. This takes place in a “dystopian near future” where you get sent to The Hotel if you haven’t found a romantic partner. Once in said hotel, you have forty-five days to find someone or you’ll get turned into the animal of your choice. Farrell’s character picks, you guessed it, a lobster. Only time will tell if he finds someone.<\/p>\n

When I first read the premise I zeroed in on the word “dystopian”\u00a0I imagined a\u00a0Terminator<\/em>-esque world where everything is dark and murky, but the trailer shows a bright world where the sun shines and the trees are green. But there’s some sort of filter put over all of it. For those of you who don’t know, filters were invented by Instagram to make pictures look cooler. But all bad jokes aside, there a darkness to the light that tells you right away that everything isn’t alright. This isn’t a horror, it’s actually a dark romantic comedy, which piques\u00a0my interest even more. This would have been my top pick, if the next movie wasn’t also interesting.<\/p>\n
