Well, despite some amazingly silly production images that have leaked from the set of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and the fact that The Amazing Spider-Man itself was a massive chunk of meh, it’s with a small amount of surprise that we receive the big news: Sony has given the green light to both The Amazing Spider-Man 3 and The Amazing Spider-Man...
In a few months, Vin Diesel will return to the big screen as someone other than Dominic Toretto. That's right, after nearly a decade since the actor portrayed Richard B. Riddick, he will will reprise his role as the dangerous anti-hero in Universal's Riddick. The studio has released a new international trailer for the summer movie, along with a Comic-Con poster that emphasizes...
Apparently a source believes that Zack Snyder, David Goyer and Warner Bros are basically in possession of Hermoine Granger's magical time-turner necklace if they think that they can complete Man of Steel 2 in time for a 2014 release. If you think that we're just making up this story, just wait until you read how this ludicrous rumor first came to be.
There's no denying that Harry Potter and Twilight made a huge dent on pop culture, and so with both franchises (at least for the moment) laid to rest, fans may be willing to check out the off-brand versions of those stories. So far, the only film franchise that's made an impact is The Hunger Games, but later this...
If there’s one thing that holds Captain America back from being a cinematic badass, it’s this: his suit is absolutely ridiculous. Don’t get us wrong, we’re all for patriotism and apple pie and all that. But, frankly, the skin-tight red, white, and blue spandex as worn in The Avengers (his heavier, World War II outfit was far less embarrassing) doesn’t exactly scream...
Despite the fact that we’re still two years away from The Avengers 2’s official release, seeing as how The Avengers was one of the most successful films of all time, well… there’s a lot of endless speculation going on about the plot, about the cast, about the characters, etc. Hence, this article, in which we discuss writer-director Joss Whedon’s recalcitrance at...
If there are two things Martin Scorsese loves to make, it’s films featuring a fourth wall-breaking protagonist whose narrative arc is of the ‘meteoric rise and fall’ variety, and films featuring Leonardo DiCaprio. Those two elements seem to collide quite powerfully in the flashy trailer for Scorsese’s newest, The Wolf of Wall Street.
In what is likely to be a surprise to no one, Man of Steel was the number one film in America this weekend. That it did over $100 Million, and that it did so easily is also not all that surprising. It is the latest superhero movie. Still, this could have gone much, much worse.
Last year, Naomi Watts won the coveted role of Princess Diana, who was, at one point, the most famous woman in the world. We've seen a few photos of the actress in character, but this week we finally got a trailer (watch it below). Also, Dwayne Johnson has begun filming Hercules, and he shared a photo that teases his look for the movie. And we also have three new posters for Only...
For decades Disney and Star Wars have shared a special bond. By bond I mean that Disney has integrated Star Wars into their theme parks scattered across the world ever since the release of the first trilogy. It's been a long time coming, but apparently now Disney is looking to expand on the continual surge of Star Wars popularity with giving the franchise it's...
One of the challenges facing Guillermo del Toro's Pacific Rim is the sense that we've seen it all. That all the designs for future tech are drawn from obvious inspirations, and that almost everything can be traced to someone else's ideas. So what's exciting about the latest featurette for this summer blockbuster is how much everyone says the designs were made to avoid...
Last month, we reported that actor John C. Reilly was in the running for a role in Marvel’s upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy (you know, the film with a superhero tree and gun-toting raccoon), a film about a group of intergalactic law enforcers. And, while Reilly would be awfully high profile for such a gig (Marvel has a tendency to go for cheaper, less on the radar performers),...
Back in April, we showed you the first trailer for Neill Blomkamp’s follow-up to District 9, Elysium, starring Matt Damon and Jodie Foster. That clip gave the film’s broad strokes—in the future, the poor live on an overpopulated and disease-covered Earth while the privileged live in an orbiting paradise called Elysium—while this newest trailer gets more specific,...
There are two things to note about this weekend. Man of Steel can only disappoint, and This is the End can only come off well. But first, let me explain.
Though we've had other superhero movies from DC, both successful (The Dark Knight) and not (The Green Lantern), Warner Brothers has been building on the idea that eventually they want to do their own Avengers-style movie with Justice League. But from what screenwriter David Goyer is saying,...
Wait, how exactly is this going to work out? In what may be one of the stranger pieces of news to crop up today, it's been announced that Arnold Schwarzenegger will be reprising his role as the deadly Skynet cyborg in Terminator 5. No we are not kidding and aren't entirely sure how they'll be able to pull this off either.
Just yesterday, we reported to you that Joss Whedon was extremely excited about director James Gunn’s vision for Marvel’s upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy, a wacky film about an intergalactic superhuman police force that includes a sentient tree and a talking, gun-toting raccoon. And since it is rumored that Thanos (the big bad guy in The Avengers’ post-credits teaser) will...
It looks like the Tomb Raider film franchise, like the video game series it is based upon, is set to be rejuvenated with a prequel/reboot. Just this year, the fifth video game in the series, Tomb Raider, was released and it featured a rebooted continuity with a much younger, more vulnerable and desperate Lara Croft, and it now appears that MGM will be...
Fans of big burly guys armed with capes, codpieces and swords who do a bunch of slow-motion punching, yelling and kicking in front of green screens, have we ever got a trailer for you. That’s right, the trailer for 300: Rise of an Empire—the sequel to Zack Snyder’s incredibly goofy film 300—is finally here and ready to excite bros in the 15 to 25...
How’s this for a big-screen comedy casting coup—Audrey Plaza, Donald Glover, Bill Hader, Alia Shawkat, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Clark Gregg, Connie Britton, and Rachel Bilson, all in one film. Not bad, right? But then slap them into a really, really, really tired teen comedy premise (a nerdy, graduating high school valedictorian is determined to have...
