Captain America throws new trailer and poster at the world

It has been a big summer filled with huge hits and major flops, and it is only June.  And still on the docket, one of the biggest releases of the year is due next month when Captain America jumps to the big screen to beat on some Ratzis with his shield and super soldier infused fists. And with just under a month to go before the release of Marvel’s final pre-Avengers outing—and arguably the most important solo movie—the advertising blitz (pun intended) has begun.

The trailer below gives a bit more of a look at the story for Captain America. You have the young and scrawny Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) volunteer for a program to make him more of a soldier. After the successful experiment, he becomes the prime weapon in the fight against Hydra, the Nazis’ scientific and terror group led by the Red Skull (Hugo Weaving). Along the way, Cap puts foot to ass in the name of truth, justice and apple pie.

Look for Captain America: The First Avenger in theaters on July 22.

How to watch the WWE Backlash France 2024 live stream
Logo for WWE Backlash France.

A WWE Premium Live Event (PLE) is heading to Lyon Metropolis for the first time for WWE Backlash France 2024. Since the formation of TKO in September 2023, WWE has prioritized global expansion. In 2024, Backlash France is the second PLE to be held outside the U.S., and it won't be the last. Five of the next six WWE PLEs will take place outside the U.S.

Heading into Backlash, WWE is entering the "American Nightmare Era." After finishing his story at WrestleMania 40, Cody Rhodes is now the Undisputed WWE Champion. A different era means a new crop of challengers for Rhodes. First up is AJ Styles, a former two-time WWE champion. Rhodes must bring his A-game if he wants to walk out of France as champion.

If you have to watch one Star Wars movie this May the 4th, stream this one
Luke looking off into the binary sunset before dying in The Last Jedi.

Every Star Wars fan has a favorite movie, and many Star Wars fans also hate at least one of the entries in one of their favorite franchises. That can make the exercise of choosing the perfect Star Wars movie to watch on May the 4th difficult. For all of the love this fan base has shown to the franchise over the years, it's also a fan base that has strong opinions about why one movie or another is worthy of your time.

This May 4, though, I'd recommend watching Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Almost undoubtedly the most controversial entry in the saga, one that makes some people furious and others jump for joy, The Last Jedi is worthy of your attention, whether you like what it's doing or not. Here are three reasons you should check it out:
