My thoughts and stuff…
Pierre Morel is one of those directors whose films I can’t help but get excited for. I mean, the dude makes some of the most bad-ass films out there, like TAKEN. He gets really good performances out of his cast too, which is a really impressive feat when directing action movies.
Although we all still wish he were helming TAKEN 2, we can get excited for his next big film, BASTILLE DAY.
I know we don’t really talk about video games all that often on this site, but today I bring you some news that fits into both movie and game territory. The game in question is based off of the upcoming STAR TREK film sequel, and stars new Kirk and Spock, with Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto’s likenesses. The game will be a bridge between the first film and it’s sequel.
Now there is a new trailer out for the game, which you can check out after the break!

Writing for the new MUPPETS movie is in full swing, with co-writer of the first film Nicholas Stoller and the director James Bobin at the lead. This comes off the heels of finding out that Jason Segel, who co-wrote the first film with Stoller would not be scripting its sequel.
We are starting to get an idea of what the sequel will be like, and now know that the film will be a caper film. Continue reading “Sequel to THE MUPPETS to be a caper film”
Felicity Jones is a serious up-and-comer. She gained acclaim for appearing in last years LIKE CRAZY, and has since been booking a whole lot of work. Soon she will appear in the Ralph Fiennes film THE INVISIBLE WOMAN, next to Ralph himself. But that won’t be it for her showing up in films.
She is now attached to star in Nancy Meyer’s (director of IT’S COMPLICATED) next film, THE CHELSEA. Continue reading “Felicity Jones to be in THE CHELSEA”
TRON: LEGACY was released to mixed acclaim. Some people thought it was a great follow up to a series that they never expected to return, some felt that it was bland and uninteresting, while many found it quite middling. But, it did turn out to be a success for Disney, which is why they still had interest in producing a spin-off cartoon series called Tron: Uprising.
Uprising now has a teaser trailer, which gives us a look at the style of the show. Continue reading “"Tron: Uprising" gets a teaser trailer”
Joss Whedon is basically a geek god. Seriously.
The news that he might be directing THE AVENGERS came out on April Fools Day, which everyone thought was too good to be true, and it had to be a joke. Not to mention his droves of fans and their undying loyalty to his work on the small screen with Buffy, Angel, and Firefly.
He doesn’t take this title lightly, and likes to show us he cares. Which is partially why he did an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session with Reddit, where fans could submit their questions and he would respond. There are some interesting tidbits from the session below! Continue reading “Check out the awesome Joss Whedon "AMA" from Reddit”
The TOTAL RECALL remake is on its way, and people are really starting to get excited about its potential. The trailer was a big surprise, and a good one at that, giving us a pretty good idea of the tone, look, and story of the new and improved RECALL. Although we’re getting a few looks at the film, it seems like the studio is still trying to keep it under wraps.
Although the story is being kept a secret, they definitely want us to know how good the film looks, and this new image (above) looks to be taken from a fairly major action scene. Continue reading “New TOTAL RECALL image shows off its firepower”
Just a couple days ago, we got an awesome clip of The Black Widow fighting back, and it was really awesome. It was great to see a look at one of the characters that isn’t quite as mainstream as Cap, Thor, Hulk, or Iron Man. Marvel is continuing that idea today, with a new clip that actress Cobie Smulder (How I Met Your Mother) debuted last night on The Late Show With David Letterman.
You can check out the clip after the break! Continue reading “New AVENGERS clip shows Cobie Smulders and Sam Jackson face off”
The Marvel/Disney deal brought up a whole lot of questions for fans. What would this mean for how Marvel operates? Would anything change, or would it be business as usual? But once word came that they weren’t looking to fix what wasn’t broken, fans started considering the positive possibilities.
One of which was the possibility of a Marvel animated movie. Although this isn’t official and should be filed in the rumor file, word says it might be happening. Continue reading “Does Disney have a Marvel animated movie in the works?”
Summer is almost here, which means that all of us film fanatics are probably going to be spending all of our time and money at the movie theater. We don’t mind though, as oftentimes it is the best part of the year. As an ultra-geek myself, I get most excited for all the superhero stuff to come out.
THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, easily one of the most anticipated movies of the year will be out shortly, and now it has an MPAA rating officially. It will be PG-13. Continue reading “THE DARK KNIGHT RISES gets a PG-13 Rating”
