    Jurassic Park meets Under the Dome. You have to wonder why big name
    actors like Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGrgor stoop to such dismal depths

    The End of Oak Street Trailer Previews J.J. Abrams
    & Anne Hathaway's Bizarre Dinosaur Movie
    --------------------------------------------------
    The first trailer for The End of Oak Street has been released.

    The End of Oak Street is a new sci-fi fantasy movie that is being
    released in United States theaters this summer by Warner Bros.
    Pictures. Formerly titled Flowervale Street, the movie is
    produced by J.J. Abrams and directed by David Robert Mitchell. It
    stars Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, and more.

    What do we see in The End of Oak Street trailer?
    As is often the case with J.J. Abrams projects, there's a lot of
    mystery surrounding The End of Oak Street, as the short,
    98-second-long teaser trailer raises a lot of questions. The
    movie does, however, appear to revolve around a street that can
    somehow be transported to other places and, seemingly, different
    time periods. The final seconds of the trailer notably feature a
    dinosaur running through the neighborhood, suggesting that the
    street has somehow landed in prehistoric times.

    The synopsis for the movie reads, "After a mysterious cosmic event
    rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports their neighborhood to
    someplace unknown, the Platt family soon discovers that their very
    survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their
    now unrecognizable surroundings."

    Maisy Stella and Christian Convery star in the movie alongside
    Hathaway and McGregor. Mitchell, Hannah Minghella, Jon Cohen, Matt
    Jackson, and Tommy Harper produce the movie with Abrams, while
    Chris Bender, Jake Weiner, Joanne Lee, and Leeann Stonebreaker
    serve as executive producers.

    Mitchell, who also wrote the screenplay for The End of Oak Street,
    is best known for directing 2014's It Follows. Before that, he
    helmed a 2010 movie called The Myth of the American Sleepover, while
    he also made Under the Silver Lake with Andrew Garfield in 2018.

    The End of Oak Street arrives in theaters and IMAX in North America
    on August 14, 2026.

    Roger Moore was asked why he kept making those "horrible" Bond movies.
    His answer was because they paid him huge amounts of money.

    He was a gentleman. Far too much of one to properly play the Bond
    thug.

    Patrick McGoohan was once considered for Bond. He turned it down,
    because he didnrCOt approve of the character.

    Instead, he created John Drake.

    It's a movie, so thankfully there won't be an "each week". :-)
    It's JarJar Abrams' garbage, so hopefully there won't even be a sequel! :-p

    By the look of the trailer, they're stuck in their town, similar to the
    TV series "The Dome".

    I would imagine that, by this point in time, between books, plays,
    movies, and TV shows -- hundreds, if not thousands, of people.
    It is, after all, a "life lesson".
