'Filth' NSFW Trailer: James McAvoy Plays in 'Trainspotting' World

Published by

Filth
The success of Danny Boyle's Trainspotting was such that Irvine Welsh became a hot author for adaptations. Alas, nothing he wrote translated to film as well, and Boyle had little interest in Welsh's original sequel to Trainspotting (Porno), and still doesn't -- Boyle has talked about doing a sequel, but not taking...

Is there anybody from the original X-Men trilogy that won't be in X-Men: Days of Future Past?

X-Men First Class - James McAvoy as Charles Xavier
Since it was first announced that F.

Trance – Vincent Cassel
As we noted when we got our hands on the first official trailer for Trance, the film appears to be Danny Boyle’s typically hyper-stylized take on Inception, as the film centers on a heist and the subconscious.  And now we have the semi-not safe for work red-band trailer, in which people sleep with hypnotists, get their fingers cut off, and...

Maybe it's just the fan in me, but my curiosity over whether or not Kitty Pryde will get a good amount of screen time in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past is the biggest question in my mind when it comes to this production. The character is a fan-favorite and launches the popular story line into motion as she travels back in time. Fans may be...

Arthur Christmas: Movie Review

Arthur Christmas
Making films about Santa Claus is difficult business. Besides the fact that he mostly plays to those under ten, the very act of Santa Claus-ing is hard to make cinematic. But the wizards at Aardman animation figured out a way to crack that nut: it's about Arthur Christmas (voiced by James McAvoy) the younger and goofier son of the current Claus (Jim Broadbent), who loves Christmas more than...

A 3-D Shakespeare adaptation borderlines ridiculous, and while replacing Romeo and Juliet with Garden Gnomes might send dramaturges off the deep end, Disney's Gnomeo & Juliet is surprisingly charming. The adorably embellished/child-proof rendition of Shakespeare's romantic tragedy stars James McAvoy and Emily Blunt and hits theaters nationwide this weekend. Disney...
