PItch Perfect Reviews, Interviews & More
You can start with the title jokes now ("Pitch-er Perfect?") because last fall's surprise hit Pitch Perfect is getting a sequel from Universal, with a proposed release date of 2015. This comes from today's CinemaCon presentation where Universal revealed that they brought back the original writer Kay Cannon.
There are very few things to do on Christmas Day. You can always stay in and watch specials on TV while your family argues about your little sister's new bad-boy boyfriend. Or, if you're like us, you'll head straight to the movie theater. We've compiled a small list of solid movies that will be playing in theaters on Christmas Day. Keep in mind that these movies are for everyone (or just...
This has been a huge pivot point for movies in how they're made and distributed. 2012 was the year where the film industry turned its back on 35 millimeter film (which has been the standard for well over a century), with digital projection no longer just an option but the standard. At the same time a filmmaker like Paul Thomas Anderson shot a movie on 70mm - a format that hadn't been used...
This week brings a tidal wave of new releases. In fact there’s no notable classic or older titles coming out for the next week. Such is Christmas. What is coming is some of the August and September’s surprise hits, and biggest misses. Check it out.

But I guess they can't fight superheroes.
Pitch Perfect is the perfect kind of movie for repeat comfort viewings. It's no masterpiece, but it definitely satisfies. First time screenwriter Kay Cannon (30 Rock, New Girl) based her story on a 2008 nonfiction book by Mickey Rapkin, about the world of competitive collegiate A...
Anna Kendrick and Brittany Snow star in Pitch Perfect, a comedy musical about a group of girls passionate about A Capella singing. Even though Kendrick is better known for her role as George Clooney's protégé in Up in the Air and Joseph Gordon-Levitt's sweet girlfriend in 50/50, she's no stranger...
Rebel Wilson is the latest female comic to prove Jerry Lewis wrong. After her breakout performance in Bridesmaids, in which she played Kristin Wiig's hilariously inappropriate roommate, Wilson landed a bevy of neat gigs. Her most recent movie, Pitch Perfect, is a Glee-full, fun comedy about a group...
After a month of films that could take the top slot with little or no effort, this week saw two new wide releases come out and deliver more than was expected, and a film in limited release that exceeded expectations as well. Hotel Transylvania, Looper and Pitch Perfect were all big winners this weekend. Check out the...
