MOVIES THAT ARE GOING TO BLOW EVERYONE AWAY IN 2017 - VIDSLOCKER Though 2016 was an epic year for movies, it almost feels like a warm-up compared to the long list of blockbuster films on the release calendar for 2017. It's never too early to get excited about taking a trip to the theater, so VidsLocker has lined up the biggest upcoming releases—and whether you're into action, comedy, horror, or drama, there's something here for everyone. If you fancy going to a theatre or you can visit our website at VidsLocker where you can find all your favourite releases online completely free to watch and that too even in Full HD Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 - May 5 Initially, it seemed like a hilariously dumb idea for Marvel to turn a relatively obscure comic about a ragtag team of intergalactic do-gooders—whose ranks include a raccoon-like creature and an alien resembling a sentient tree—into a $200 million movie. Nearly $775 million in box office receipts later, Guardians of the Galaxy could be the start of an Avengers-style franchise for the studio, and Chris Pratt, whose biggest credit prior to taking on the role of Peter "Star-Lord" Quill came as doughy doofus Andy Dwyer in NBC's Parks & Recreation, is a full-on action hero. The gang's all back for Vol. 2, along with writer-director James Gunn, and while we don't have many details regarding what they'll be up to this time around, we're confident it'll be tons of fun.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword - May 12 A swords-'n'-sorcery legend meets Guy Ritchie's knockabout action style in King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, in which a young Arthur (Sons of Anarchy vet Charlie Hunnam) starts out as just another scoundrel—until, of course, he grasps the hilt of his fateful blade Excalibur, setting in motion a fateful quest that sees him fighting for the fate of his people, the honor of his family, and the future of his country's crown. Like what you see here? Just wait: Warner Bros. has its eye on a franchise. Starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, the film is an iconoclastic take on the classic Excalibur myth, tracing Arthur's journey from the streets to the throne. When the child Arthur's father is murdered, Vortigern (Jude Law), Arthur's uncle, seizes the crown. Robbed of his birthright and with no idea who he truly is, Arthur comes up the hard way in the back alleys of the city. But once he pulls the sword from the stone,
his life is turned upside down and he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy...whether he likes it or not. Alien: Covenant - May 19 With 2012's Prometheus, Ridley Scott made his eagerly awaited return to the Alien franchise by way of a prequel that hinted at the long-ago beginnings of his blockbuster saga's story. Under the weight of decades' worth of sequels, spinoffs, and expectations, the end result couldn't help but disappoint some viewers, and in spite of a $400 million gross and largely positive reviews, there's a sense of unfinished business hanging over the sequel. Fans who feel Prometheus didn't tie into the Alien films strongly enough might be better served by Alien: Covenant, which brings back Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace to show what happens after they hijack an ancient spacecraft in order to venture to the homeworld of the mysterious Engineers and halt their plans for humanity. Baywatch - May 26 Movies based on TV shows have an admittedly bumpy track record, but let's face it—most shows don't have slam-dunk moneymaking concepts like Baywatch. Years after the show reigned as a global ratings champion (and helped make Pamela Anderson a star), Hollywood has finally wised up to the reality that the only thing better than watching beautiful people run in slow motion on TV is watching them do it on the big screen. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, and Alexandria Daddario, the Baywatch movie seems to be taking a comedically self-aware approach to the cheesy source material, while taking care to include all the beefcake and cheesecake that made the show a sensation. A sequel can't be far behind. Finally! After months of waiting, the third 'Baywatch' trailer offers us the best look at Priyanka Chopra's character of Victoria Leeds. Don't be fooled by the smile and charm because it appears that Priyanka has devious plans as she takes on the part of the antagonist in the film that marks her Hollywood debut. Directed by Seth Gordon, 'Baywatch' also stars Zac Efron, Kelly Rohrbach, Alexandra Daddario, with guest appearances from the original television cast including Pamela Anderson and David Hasselhoff.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales - May 26 Pre-production on this fifth instalment in the Pirates of the Caribbean saga started back when the previous sequel, 2011's On Stranger Tides, was on its way to theaters, and its path through development has been strewn with script difficulties and budget-induced delays. Still, any new chapter in a franchise that's grossed nearly $4 billion counts as a promising development for the studio, and Disney has stood by while producer Jerry Bruckheimer steered Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales to its destination. Directed by Joachim Rønning and Espen Sandberg (Kon-Tiki), this adventure sees Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow face off against an old nemesis played by Javier Bardem— and sees the return of Orlando Bloom's Will Turner in his new guise as Davy Jones. The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise has now been running for over a decade – it was 13 years last August – and as we face the release of Pirates of the Caribbean 5 (aka Dead Men Tell No Tales, now also aka Salazar's Revenge in the UK) we have to acknowledge that it will probably outlive all of us. We've been hearing about the fifth film (yes, fifth) for so long that it had started to feel like it might never actually come out, but it'll finally hit cinemas in May of 2017. Wonder Woman - June 2 After being introduced to audiences in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman will get her own standalone feature, which is rumoured to be the first instalment in a period-piece trilogy that will take audiences from the 1920s to the present day. Monster director Patty Jenkins is at the helm, with a screenplay from Pan writer Jason Fuchs. Meanwhile, Gadot will be surrounded by a supporting cast that includes Chris Pine, Robin Wright, and Danny Huston. Whatever actually happens in the movie, it's a long- overdue victory for comics fans who've waited years for the Amazonian warrior to get a shot at her own big-screen franchise—and it may help Warner Bros. gain a demographic edge on Marvel in the superhero blockbuster arms race. Wonder Woman is a fictional super heroine appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics.
The Mummy - June 9 Much like the undead antagonist at its core, Universal's Mummy movies will continue to lumber on long after we're all in the grave. Just ask poor Brendan Fraser, who's been usurped by Tom Cruise as the franchise's star for a reboot that brings cutting-edge special effects to bear on the familiar saga while laying the groundwork for a cinematic universe that hopes to tie the studio's many boogeymen together for a whole new generation of horror blockbusters. It's been awhile since we've seen Cruise do something a little scary, and the mummy is freakier than ever—bring on Frankenstein and the Wolfman. Thought safely entombed in a crypt deep beneath the desert, an ancient princess whose destiny was unjustly taken from her is awakened in the modern era, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.From King Solomon's Mines to Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, no one's managed to quite get into the spirit of things like Stephen Sommers did with his excruciatingly enjoyable Imhotep-on-the-loose gubbins. The new Mummy reboot, starring Mr. Thomas Cruise, has gone for a very different vibe thus far, bringing us a more gritty - and decidedly more feminine - monster for our heroes to deal with, but despite a whole lot of money clearly being thrown at it, it hasn't looked even a little bit as fun as a Universal Monsters movie feels like it should be. Cars 3 - June 16 Rev up your engines, kids, because Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) is back in high-speed action in Disney-Pixar's Cars 3. The 3D animated adventure, which follows the events of 2006's Cars and 2011's Cars 2, will follow the famous red race car on his journey to catch up with a new generation of speedsters and feature the return of some fan favorites like Mater (Larry the Cable Guy), Sally Carrera (Bonnie Hunt), and Ramone (Cheech Marin) while adding fresh fuel to the cinematic tank by way of yellow car and race technician Cruz Ramirez and the rookie racer McQueen longs to defeat, Jackson Storm. According to director John Fee, the storyline finds McQueen coping with something of a midlife crisis—mature stuff for a Pixar film, but considering how well the first two films (and spinoffs Planes and Planes: Fire & Rescue) have done at the box office, this one's sure to be a hit with the summertime family crowd.
Transformers: The Last Knight - June 23 Every time Michael Bay thinks he's out of the Transformers franchise, they pull him back in with a fresh boatload of cash. Bay's been making noises about being done with Optimus Prime and his buddies for years, and was initially only on board to produce this installment in the series. But the executives at Paramount must have been pretty persuasive, because he's still in the director's seat for what he insists will be his final Transformers film. Aside from Mark Wahlberg being back as the saga's current human star, The Last Knight looks like it'll plunge viewers into a time-traveling plot that includes King Arthur and an alternate history in which Nazis won World War II—plus plenty of action and lots of lead-ins to the assortment of spinoff films the studio's planning. Humans are at war with the Transformers, and Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving the future lies buried in the secrets of the past and the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Now, it's up to the unlikely alliance of Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg), Bumblebee, an English lord (Anthony Hopkins) and an Oxford professor (Laura Haddock) to save the world Despicable Me 3 - June 30 From its humble beginnings as a cartoon about a funny-looking supervillain who sets out to steal the moon and ends up adopting three adorable munchkins, Despicable Me has grown into an impressively adaptable franchise for Universal. In addition to 2013's Despicable Me 2, it's also spun off a prequel (2015's Minions), six short films, three video games, and a theme park attraction—and as we can see from the 2017 release schedule, it isn't done yet. Details are still very sketchy regarding this third installment, but we can safely assume Steve Carell will be back as the nefarious (but kinda cuddly) Gru—and we know he'll be working from a script written by Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio, who collaborated on the first two films. Wednesday at CinemaCon. Illumination Entertainment founder Chris Melandandri and Steve Carell, the voice of Despicable Me's Gru, on Wednesday got the Universal slate presentation at CinemaCon underway with new footage from Despicable Me 3. The offering included clips during which Gru meets his brother, Dru (also voiced by Carell); Gru and Lucy (Kristen Wiig) are fired from their jobs; the Minions land in prison; Agnes ("Fluffy!") brings the cute; '80s-inspired villain Balthazar Bratt (South Park-co-creator Trey Parker) steals a gem; and an action sequence takes place on Hollywood Blvd.
Spider-Man: Homecoming - July 7 Sony's hopes for a Spider-Man film universe were dealt an embarrassing setback after director Marc Webb's reboots underperformed. But even if we aren't getting a Sinister Six or Venom movie anytime soon, the core franchise remains a top priority at the studio—as evidenced by this new reboot, which will find Tom Holland starring as the web-slinger in a standalone film while doing double duty as a supporting player in a number of Marvel movies (starting with Captain America: Civil War). Jon Watts, who helmed the creepy low-budget Kevin Bacon thriller Cop Car, is on board as director for a storyline that features Robert Downey, Jr.'s Tony Stark playing mentor to young Spidey in his battle against the Vulture (Michael Keaton). When Civil War chose to lay the groundwork for Spider-Man’s costume at the feet of Tony Stark rather than Peter Parker, we all knew it meant there was going to be some techy-upgrades to the classic from Homecoming gives Peter a new trick up his... well, not-sleeve that’s straight out of the Iron Man playbook. Spidey Spandex. But new footage War for the Planet of the Apes - July 14 Dawn of the Planet of the Apes director Matt Reeves returns for this follow-up, which picks up from Dawn's final scene—a grim foreshadowing of the major conflict brewing between genetically enhanced primates and a human population decimated by a virus dubbed the Simian Flu. Andy Serkis is back as the apes' leader, Caesar, whose journey from young chimp to noble warrior has formed the backbone for the franchise's overall arc. Reeves, who co-wrote the script, is keeping storyline details under wraps, but says the events depicted in War for the Planet of the Apes see Caesar achieving "mythic" status. Caesar (Andy Serkis) and his apes are forced into a deadly conflict with an army of humans led by a ruthless colonel (Woody Harrelson). After the apes suffer unimaginable losses, Caesar wrestles with his darker instincts and begins his own mythic quest to avenge his kind. As the journey finally brings them face to face, Caesar and the colonel are pitted against each other in an epic battle that will determine the fate of both of their species and the future of the planet.
Dunkirk - July 21 After a decade spent in the sci-fi/fantasy realm, writer-director Christopher Nolan has put his considerable talents to work on a historical drama about a World War II battle. Dunkirk reunites Nolan with a pair of his Dark Knight and Inception alums, Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy, and early footage hearkens back to the heart-pounding beachfront battle imagery in the legendary opening scene from Saving Private Ryan. Nolan's attention to historical detail on the partial IMAX production—including shooting on the site of the real-life events that inspired it—will no doubt serve his tale of heroism and survival well. And considering his box office track record, Dunkirk is sure to be a summer blockbuster that's much more engrossing than the usual generic popcorn fare. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - July 21 Anyone who's seen The Fifth Element knows director Luc Besson is capable of delivering irresistible sci-fi eye candy when he's given the right concept (and a big enough budget). It's been awhile since we've seen Besson scale those colorful flights of fancy, but he's back in space with Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, which adapts the French comics series Valérian and Laureline—and sends Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevingne on a quest to save the universe. Packed with incredible visuals and rounded out by an eclectic cast that includes Rihanna and John Goodman, this looks like one summer movie well worth the price of an IMAX ticket. The Dark Tower - August 4 Of all the adaptations Stephen King's written works have produced, Nikolaj Arcel's The Dark Tower has to be the most anticipated. The sci-fi western horror film will follow the events of King's prolific Dark Tower book series—reportedly picking up some time after the ending of The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower, with elements from the first book, The Gunslinger. The story will present the apocalyptic adventure of an 11-year-old boy named Jake Chambers (Tom Taylor) as he accidentally uncovers the Mid-World dimension and joins up with Roland Deschain (Idris Elba) to find the Dark Tower before the Man in
Black (Matthew McConaughey) can stop him from saving his dimension from certain destruction. Like King's book series, the film will juxtapose Wild West-style revolver action with supernatural elements and fantastic locales that constitute their own, radical plane of reality. The King faithful are sure to turn up for this long-overdue Hollywood treatment of the beloved series, especially with Elba and McConaughey's star power driving the narrative. Kingsman: The Golden Circle - September 29 The creative team behind 2015's Kingsman: The Secret Service reunites for this sequel, with director Matthew Vaughn continuing to work with characters created by comics legends Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons. The plot details are still a little loose—rumour has it that the Kingsman British spy team will team up with their American equivalents after their headquarters are destroyed by a lethal foe—but who needs a synopsis when you've got a cast this intriguingly weird? Returning stars Taron Egerton, Mark Strong, and Sophie Cookson are joined by an eclectic ensemble that includes Channing Tatum, Halle Berry, Julianne Moore, Jeff Bridges, and Elton John. Also reportedly in the mix? Kingsman star Colin Firth, who—if you've seen the original— is kind of a surprising addition. Whatever happens in The Golden Circle, we're betting it won't be dull. Saw: Legacy - October 27 Lionsgate was definitely playing a game by presenting 2010's Saw 3D: The Final Chapter as the very last round of Jigsaw's punishing plans. While details are scant on what the newest round of trap-filled thrills will bring, composer Charlie Clouser told The Hollywood Reporter that the eighth installment of the franchise will be a "reinvention" of the series and that co-directors Michael and Peter Spierig offer "a fresh take on the material that will establish a new storyline and new characters that can carry the saga into the future." Some speculate that the new flick will pick up material left on the screenwriting table by Saw 3D, as that film was originally supposed to be split in two. As screenwriters Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan revealed to Bloody-Digusting.com, the return of Dr. Lawrence Gordon (Cary Elwes) to the final installment was supposed to be a little more eventful than it already was. "The big reveal of Dr. Gordon was a bit underserved as a result [of not being split into two], perhaps creating more questions than answers. There were several ideas we never quite figured out, but I
don't want to say what they were because you never know what might happen in the future." Thor: Ragnarok - November 3 In Norse mythology, Ragnarök is an apocalyptic series of events that results in the world being plunged into water after the deaths of several gods— including Odin, Thor, and Loki—and culminates in a planetary rebirth. Needless to say, it's obvious from the title that Thor: Ragnarok won't be a jolly good time for our hammer-wielding hero (Chris Hemsworth), although we can guess from his imminent participation in the upcoming Avengers: Infinity War movies that he'll emerge relatively unscathed after the final act. First, however, he'll have to bust out of prison—without his hammer—and, according to the official synopsis, "survive a deadly gladatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger— the Incredible Hulk!" Thor: Ragnarok marks the MCU debut of New Zealand filmmaker Taika Waititi, who earned raves for his 2014 vampire mockumentary What We Do in the Shadows. Justice League - November 17 Marvel has done a brilliant job of laying out the template for a successful shared universe, and now Warner Bros. is following in its rival's footsteps with its DC Comics properties, which are due to get their first moments in the all-star superhero team spotlight with Justice League. Director Zack Snyder has already agreed to helm, and confirmed members of the cast include stars from the studio's pre-existing franchises, including Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, and Ben Affleck, as Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, respectively. While we don't yet have any idea what danger our team will face, we do know it'll be serious enough to attract the attention of Aquaman (Jason Momoa) and Cyborg (Ray Fisher). And with a sequel already scheduled for 2019, you can bet the battle won't end here. Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's (Henry Cavill) selfless act, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) enlists newfound ally Diana Prince to face an even greater threat. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to recruit a team to stand against this newly awakened enemy. Despite the formation of an unprecedented league of heroes -- Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and the Flash -- it may be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi - December 15 This is Star Wars we're talking about, so the list of things we truly know about Episode VIII is awfully short. But we do know a couple of important facts: one, Rian Johnson (Looper) will be in the director's chair; and two, most of Episode VII's cast will be back, including Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, and Adam Driver, along with OG franchise stars Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher. (Carrie Fisher had wrapped filming for Episode VIII before her tragic and unexpected death.) Beyond that, pretty much all we can tell you is that this installment follows the events of Episode VII, and advances the new trilogy pitting the Resistance against the First Order led by Supreme Leader Snoke (Andy Serkis) and his apprentice Kylo Ren (Adam Driver). Oh, and another thing: it'll sell tons of tickets. Now that you've marked up your movie calendar for 2017, there's no time like the present to plan ahead for next year—and you can get an early jump on your fellow filmgoers.
