The 2013 Sundance Film Festival is tons of fun (Industry parties! Woooo!), but let's remember that this is also the festival that brought us films like Winter's Bone, Restrepo, West of Memphis, and The Sessions. Don't get me wrong, these are all terrific films, but they're all kind of...
'Tis the season of giving, and ScreenCrave's gifting you with a new holiday schedule. The next week is filled with TV events to keep you and your family entertained. It doesn't matter if it's Christmas, Kwanzaa, New Year's or Boxing Day, there's something for everyone. We have everything covered from classics like It's a Wonderful Life and The Bishop's...
Grab your remote, loosen your belt and stuff your face -- it's Thanksgiving 2012. With the holiday comes three things: family, football and weight gain. We can't help with the latter, but we can give you a heads up on some quality entertainment. Over the extended weekend, you'll find TV and movie marathons, as well as college and professional football. Plus, classic Thanksgiving and...
Django Unchained won't be the only Quentin Tarantino movie in theaters December. Fathom Events is hosting a nationwide Tarantino night bringing his classics Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, back to the masses. You read right, they're returning to the big screen.
Unless you've been hiding under a rock for the past few days, you must know it's Comic-Con weekend in San Diego and in our hearts. So, in the spirit of the Con, we've decided to turn our regular weekly roundup into a massive Comic-Con 2012 News Roundup featuring anything and everything coming out of the big event. We've got news on giveaways and upcoming events. There's also new posters and...
This weekend, Comic-Con’s other half, WonderCon, is making the leap from San Francisco to Anaheim, CA. The annual event kicks off today and lasts until Sunday evening. The gathering will bring fans the latest in TV, movies, and of course comics. This year, ScreenCrave will have its eye on the small screen as we tackle the best in genre television. Do you have a thing for ABC's...
There are a lot of new movies in theaters today, from a cancer dramady to a psychological thriller. Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen star in the critically acclaimed 50/50. There's a romantic comedy starring the queen of spoof comedy Anna Farris and Captain America, Chris Evans. There's also a suspenseful thriller, a Christian drama, and a...
This afternoon in Comic Con's Hall H, screenwriter and Lost co-creator Damon Lindeloff, joined by star Charlize Theron, presented a short behind the scenes look at Ridley Scott's much rumored Prometheus. The panel also included a special visit live via satellite from Sir Ridley himself, as well as cast member Noomi Rapace, all the way from the movie's set in Iceland. To...
The Los Angeles Film Festival is gearing up for its second year downtown. Last year’s inaugural move from Westwood was accomplished smoothly, with frequent shuttles between venues, and a splendid mini-retrospective of forgotten Argentinean director Leopoldo Torres Nilsson. There’s nothing as striking in the retrospective section this year, and few obviously standout titles in the main...
The event of the year so far for me is the chance to see Road to Nowhere, the first feature in 21 years by Monte Hellman. He and the film were fêted at Venice and now, this Thursday through Saturday, the American Cinematheque at the Egyptian is hosting an in-person tribute, with a killer pair of double bills and a sneak peak at the new film.
The Oscar race is over and this weekend will see a slate of new releases all competing for the top prize at the box office. Johnny Depp's Rango, and Matt Damon's The Adjustment Bureau will see mild competition from such teen fare as Topher Grace's Take Me Home Tonight, and the Vanessa Hudgen's starrer...
It’s Golden Globe nominees a-go-go on DVD this week with honorees Emma Stone and Michael Douglas‘ nominated performances hitting shelves with the releases of Easy A and Wall Street Money Never Sleeps, as well as surprise nominee Angelina Jolie's much bigger hit, Salt, also available on DVD.
All that,...
You'd think with the Oscar race piquing movie interest and with nothing in the theaters other than Bieber and Sandler to satisfy that interest, studios would be filling the shelves with new DVDs to tide us over. Well, that didn't really happen. In fact, the DVD coffers are just about bare beyond the Denzel Washington (literally) vehicle hitting shelves this week.
Check it all out...
A surprisingly large array of DVDs this week, and a bit of something for everybody. This week's offerings are loaded with horror movies, rom-coms, Tyler Perry flicks and even a porno-thriller. Oh yeah. And in the midst of this hodgepodge of fun, we've also managed to locate the Mowry twins of "Sister Sister". It's definitely an interesting week on DVD.
Check it all out below…
If you like indie movies, this is a dream DVD weekend for you as it is absolutely loaded with smaller pictures. Sure, there’s a wide release in there (Takers), but for the most part, this weekend belongs to the little guy with everything from Oscar contenders (Animal Kingdom) to people writing spam e-mails saying their movie should be an...
Well, that was...not exciting at all. How not exciting was it? I managed to go a staggering 40-for-45 on my Oscar predictions this year. I ran three categories and got four in all the others, with the biggest underdog ranked seventh (Javier Bardem, shocker!)
In other words, this was a painfully predictable Oscar morning, and it's shaping up that Oscar night may be just as obvious.
Thus...
Here we go everybody. The title pretty much says it all. This is the final Oscar Power Rankings list before the nominations hit those screens behind the half-asleep presenters tomorrow morning. These haven't been updated in awhile, so a lot has changed - including the addition of the screenplay categories!
So let's not wait a second longer. Here are The Oscar Power Rankings' final Oscar...
The abhorrent hate group known as the Westboro Baptist Church (you know them as the jerks behind all those "God Hates Fags" signs), have announced in a press release that they will be protesting the premiere of Kevin Smith's new film Red State. The film, which premiers at the Sundance Film Festival on Sunday, January 23rd, has been picking up steam as rumors over its...
If you like indie movies, this is a dream DVD weekend for you as it is absolutely loaded with smaller pictures. Sure, there's still the wide release in there (Takers), but for the most part, this weekend belongs to the little guy with everything from Oscar contenders (Animal Kingdom) to people writing spam e-mails saying their movie should be...
This is a very slow week for DVDs. Very slow. Like two movies and a smattering of TV shows-level slow. But there's good new - the film of the year - The Social Network - makes its triumphant debut on DVD which means all the people I know who haven't seen the movie yet can finally stop bugging me about when it comes out on DVD. Because it's here! Not much else is here,...
