The British comedy duo that starred in Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead and the TV series Spaced, reunite for Paul, a sci-fi comedy about an alien who teams up with two British geeks who are on the way to Comic-Con. Although the film is sans director Edgar Wright, the script comes from Frost and Pegg, and the direction is in the capable hands of Greg Mottola (Superbad, Adventureland).

Paul also stars Seth Rogan as the voice of Paul, an alien who bumps into Pegg and Frost. Hilarity ensues.

Check out the trailer, newly released on the intertubes, and look for Paul in theaters sometime in February 2011.

That's because the new additions to Hulu include The Big Lebowski, The Fifth Element, Hellboy, Ocean's 11, Jumanji: The Next Level, and even Wonder Woman. The only major Disney+ movie to debut in April was Wish. For families with kids or animation lovers, Wish might be enough. But when picking the one movie to watch on Disney+ in April, we decided to dive a little deeper into the streaming catalog. That's how we settled on our choice for the one Disney+ movie that you have to watch this month: Aliens of the Deep.

Between the premiere of Titanic in 1997 and Avatar in 2009, director James Cameron threw himself into the realm of underwater exploration and directed or co-directed two documentary films. Cameron's first documentary, Ghosts of the Abyss, is not on Disney+. But Aliens of the Deep has a permanent home here. This movie was originally an IMAX release and it was filmed in IMAX 3D. The streaming experience may not be able to replicate that, but Aliens of the Deep is still visually dazzling even in 2D. And now, we'll share the three reasons why you should watch Aliens of the Deep this month.
