MGM and WB really want Peter Jackson to direct THE HOBBIT films

THE HOBBIT seems like a crazy mess right now, with rumors flying everywhere about who might take up the director’s chair now that Guillermo del Toro is no longer on the project. Just yesterday we reported that the studios behind the films, WB and MGM, were courting HARRY POTTER director David Yates to take up the mantle. This is still true according to today’s reports, but it appears he is second in the running, only behind Peter Jackson.

"The end of an Era." HARRY POTTER completed filming over the weekend

If you’re a peer of mine, you probably grew up with the HARRY POTTER franchise being a major part of your childhood. The book series not only got many children interested in reading but also opened up their imaginations to an amazing magical world. The film series was a great addition to the franchise as it brought the amazing world to life. According to the legendary Warwick Davis’ Twitter, that time is over as the film series completed shooting last Saturday.

Breck Eisner to have Dracula duel Jack The Ripper

It is relatively common for Hollywood to make creative mash-up films, most releasing to mixed or bad reviews. Some that come to mind are ALIEN VS. PREDATOR and FREDDY VS. JASON, but thanks to Breck Eisner, director of THE CRAZIES, we might be getting the greatest mash-up film ever conceived.

BLOOD OF THE INNOCENT, which is based off a graphic novel by Mark Wheatly, will be pitting Dracula against Jack The Ripper. An odd pairing that could lead to a crazy and bloody good time. Continue reading “Breck Eisner to have Dracula duel Jack The Ripper” →

GATW Podcast Ep. 13: TV to Film

I love it when a plan comes together! I also love making overtly obvious film references just because they are relevant! Said relevance comes from the fact that THE A-TEAM is kicking down the doors of your local cineplex to fill your eyes full with its Liam Neeson goodness. There’s no better way to ring in this summer movie than to talk about its roots, because it started as a television series. So we’re here to honor those shows that made it to the big screen, and name drop some of our favorites!

THE LAST AIRBENDER mythic animals revealed

THE LAST AIRBENDER is definitely one of the most brought up topics on the GATW Podcast, and is one of the most anticipated summer movies coming out. As a die hard fan of the original series Avatar: The Last Airbender, there are many nuances and small touches that are really important to me. One of these worries has been if they will nail the look and feel of the main creatures in film, Momo and Appa, and now we know for sure if they achieved the very lofty goal.

Just as a fair warning, these haven’t been given a good look in the trailers, so don’t click if you want to save the surprise! Continue reading “THE LAST AIRBENDER mythic animals revealed” →

Another "The Walking Dead" zombie shows up

I’ve stayed cautious but still excited about AMC’s The Walking Dead since it was first announced. As a devout fan of the comic series, I have been very worried about how the content of the translation not being as graphic. This new image, along with the several that came out last week completely ruins that idea and prove that this is going to be a very graphic show.

You can check out the full image after the jump! Continue reading “Another "The Walking Dead" zombie shows up” →

Shawn Hatosy to be a thorn in the side of "Dexter"

Shawn Hatosy may not be one of the biggest names out there, but when he shows up he tends to be consistently awesome (ALPHA DOG is proof enough). Although he is a regular on TNT’s Southland, it looks like he will be showing up on the opposite coast too. Hatosy has signed onto a multiple episode arc of the Showtime hit, Dexter. Continue reading “Shawn Hatosy to be a thorn in the side of "Dexter"” →

John Stamos is full of "Glee"

I think I very well might be the resident “Gleek” at GATW, as I seem to get really pumped by all of the reoccurring and cameo roles in Fox’s hit show, Glee. Time and time again, they have chosen actors to pop up, such as Neil Patrick Harris’ and his hilarious performance as Bryan Ryan. Now they have chosen another really exciting actor to bring in for the shenanigans, Uncle Jesse himself, John Stamos. Continue reading “John Stamos is full of "Glee"” →

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES delayed?

I’m just as curious about the next PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN film as the next guy, and can’t wait for the day that it hits theaters. This sentiment is built off the notion that ON STRANGER TIDES will be very Jack Sparrow-centric and, let’s face it, he’s the best part of the series.

Unfortunately, now it is very possible that we might have to wait even longer to get the film; can’t it catch a break? Continue reading “PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: ON STRANGER TIDES delayed?” →

VOLTRON movie goes bye bye; New TV Series in the works

A movie based off Premiere Voltron has been in development hell for a very long time at this point, despite the successes of similar franchises like TRANSFORMERS and G.I. JOE. You think one or two of those films would have given VOLTRON some major legitimacy. That certainly isn’t the case for this one, as the film version is dead, and other plans are being made.
