Sean O'Connell, managing editor for CinemaBlend, discusses the trailers we saw for the first time during the Super Bowl. O'Connell also shares his thoughts on the first glimpse at "Solo: A Star Wars Story." He thinks the movie looks "fine" considering the issues surrounding production. Disney replaced directors Chris Miller and Phil Lord more than 80% of the way through filming, with Ron Howard stepping in. O'Connell believes Howard re-shot nearly everything and is surprised Disney didn't push back the film's release date.
O'Connell says Netflix was a big winner with their ad for "The Cloverfield Paradox." The streaming service announced the movie during the game, revealing it would be available to stream as soon as the game ended. O'Connell calls it a "serious game-changer" and the "start of the future."
Tony Bennett, the eminent and timeless stylist whose devotion to classic American songs and knack for creating new standards such as "I Left My Heart In San Francisco" graced a decadeslong career that brought him admirers from Frank Sinatra to Lady Gaga, died Friday.
