The official trailer of the up coming film ‘Uncharted’ based on the brilliant games with the same name. It stars adventurer Tom Holland as Nathan Drake, and Mark Warlhberg as his ‘mento’ Sully. If you haven’t played the games, it isvery much in the vein of Indiana Jones, however these guys are in it purely for the money.

Unlike the game, this is a younger version of Drake and Sully. Me smell an attempt for a franchise..but can it beat the ‘Game to Movie’ curse? It doesn’t look too bad..Holland delievers his lines perfectly..however the stunt with the plane is one of those over the top cgi scenes which can ruin action scenes..

It looks alright. I am a little worried about Holland's fake American accent sounding not at all confident, which is very different to Drake's over confidence. But the wise cracks are completely on point. And Antonio Banderes always makes such a great villain.

I also like that they put in the plane scene from Uncharted 3 which is one of the best scenes ever in a game.

I’m worried to watch this and see Nadine take on 50 men at once including drake while in high heels, or a retconned feminist Chloe character from the expansion after uncharted 4.

Apparently Nadine isn't in it. The black chick is someone else.

I forgot about that plane scene in the game..to be honest the game looked more realistic!

Wait there’s a black chick in the trailer? Lolll I honestly haven’t even seen it yet, hence saying I’m scared to watch it lol. I’m definitely not watching it. Although uncharted 4 already killed the series for me. And before you claim it’s in my head the feminist agenda in it, I would in charity turn your attention to the director who came out making a point about having feminist ideology shoved in the game.

What is happening with indie 5? Why is it so wrong to not have strong women’s as characters now. Like I don’t get it. Especially in the times indie is set in.

You should play Lost Legacy. You don't get held back by any weak males. Just two powerful women.

at his best, Pacino was the best... admittedly, I have a bias towards gangster movies... but even something as straight forward as "Scent of a Woman" was elevated to Oscar winning success by Pacino alone
So good

I'm friends with a number of artists and writers. Heaps have left the major comic book companies in recent years, because of the BS that's killing the industry. They are now making far more from crowdfunding than they were doing when they were working for DC, Marvel and elsewhere. Plus they get to tell the stories they want, and have control of their characters.

Haha. I never knew "Colorist" was a thing. They're literally paid to colour in comic books.

Going to be hard to replace this guy. They're going to need to find someone who can colour in between the lines. So basically, anyone over 6 years old.

Not really Gilgamesh. The character he's playing called himself Gilgamesh at one stage because some people mistook him for Gilgamesh. He wasn't Gilgamesh though, just pretended to be.

But it is still stupid. People thought he was Gilgamesh and they also thought he was Hercules. Ignoring the fact that Hercules and Gilgamesh and two completely different looking people, neither look Asian.

Yeah, part of the Eternals stuff. But he joined the Avengers at one stage.

There's a number of immortals in Marvel called "The Eternals" which this movie is based on. But in the comics, Thanos is an Eternal.
