Cinemas reopen - Here are 5 movies that deserve that popcorn time.
After binging on Netflix for the past few months, we probably might have
forgotten the cinema experience. While staying cosy at home, on the sofa with
the 65 inch TV with the daily dose of K-Dramas, Netflix Original Movies
and reruns of old shows sound like a couch potato's dream, it will never
replace the anticipation of watching a brand new movie on the big screen with
fresh popcorns to feast.
Given that most of us are probably lost as to what is showing in the movies,
there is a snippet of the shows that will be worth the popcorn time in the
cinema.
1 Train to Busan : Peinsula
Show Starts: 15 July
For the Korean Drama fans, Train to Busan: Peninsula would be an apt first
show to watch. The first Train to Busan was a runaway success with the
introduction of Zombies on a Train to Busan.
This time around, Train to Busan will take on the streets of Seoul. From the
trial, there was no train in sight and Busan was not mentioned. We are unsure
of the connection, but from the trailer, it looks like a mash-up of
The Walking Dead and I am Legend. It probably will not win
awards but it will be a good pandemic show to take our minds of the current
pandemic.
2 Wonder Woman 1994
Release Date - 12 Aug 2020
The sequel to the successful Wonder Woman franchise and probably the only DC
franchise worth watching. Gal Gadot is back and this time Wonder Woman goes
retro with a 1984 setting.
3 Disney Mulan
Release Date - 20 Aug 2020
Another Disney 'Princess' is born with Disney Mulan. Mulan will probably be
the best fighter among all other princesses. Disney first produced Mulan based
on the Chinese legend of Jua Mulan in an animated form. In 2020, it will bring
the animation to life with the new Disney Mulan.
If you do not know the tale, it is about a woman masquerading as a man to be a
warrior in place of her ailing father. It is an epic journey to transform her
into an honoured warrior and earning the respect of a grateful nation and a
proud father.
4 A Quiet Place Part 2
Release Date - 4 Sep 2020
This 'silent' hit deserves a sequel. The first episode hangs in a
cliffhanger after the family fought off an extraterrestrial creature that
annihilated most of mankind and won. They had figured a way to rid the
unwanted guest. The question now is will the 4 be enough to defeat their
conquerors?
Watching this with a mask on is perfect. After all, if we make any sound
during this quiet show, it will ruin the quiet effect.
5 Top Gun: Maverick
Release Date - 23 Dec 2020
This one is for the older dads. The original Top Gun was aired in 1986. That
is a whopping 34 years ago. This sequel took longer than Incredibles to make.
Amazingly, the main star of the show Tom Cruise aka Maverick will be back and
yes, he will still be riding bikes and flying planes!

Despite the opening of cinemas, most of the newer shows are only slated to
release on a later date. Nonethless, if you had missed some of the recent
shows, you can now catch it on the big screen for only $5 per person!
