My thoughts and stuff…
John Hawkes is an actor that most people most likely recognize from films they have seen, but they might not know his name off the top of their heads. This is a shame, because Hawkes is a damn fine actor. If you need proof, look no further than ME AND YOU AND EVERYONE WE KNOW, where he successfully leads an ensemble cast into greatness.
Now he is going to be showing up in the great Steven Soderbergh’s upcoming film, CONTAGION. Continue reading “CONTAGION adds John Hawkes to its cast”
We all know that Bruce Willis is the embodiment of bad-ass, and you’re more than welcome to look at his filmography as proof. Sometimes, it can be hard to separate him from that persona that he has built for himself. Although this new character poster from the upcoming film RED might not be doing him any favors in that regard, that doesn’t stop it from being pretty cool.
Check out the full poster after the break! Continue reading “Bruce Willis is pretty RED in this poster”
Sometimes you just have to start over, and last week’s big release is proof of that. That would be Robert Rodriguez’s PREDATORS, a new fresh take on the PREDATOR franchise. We figured we’d talk about our dream reboot franchises, and who should work on them. Needless to say, things got pretty nostalgic.

It really isn’t TV, it’s HBO. It’s something so much more than your standard television fare and, along with Showtime and AMC, HBO is changing the way people think of cable shows. HBO’s next big show Boardwalk Empire, which was co-created by Martin Scorsese, finally has a premiere date.
The show will premiere on September 19 at 9 PM, most likely to very high viewership (all their shows always premiere well). HBO has been running the trailer almost non-stop lately, and gives off a vibe that screams “prohibition era version of The Sopranos.” If that formula doesn’t scream ridiculous success, then Scorsese’s involvement certainly does.

It’s no secret that the CAPTAIN AMERICA film is easily my most anticipated upcoming Marvel movie, not only from my love of the character but also my love for the costume they have created. Of course, the excitement has now been multiplied due to Chris Evans, the man who will don the costume, talking about his thoughts on it.
Check out what he had to say about the costume after the jump! Continue reading “Chris Evans talks CAPTAIN AMERICA costume”
Seeing SHERLOCK HOLMES was one of the first things I did at GATW which gives it a really special place in my heart. But that isn’t the only reason this flick is great, from the performances to Guy Ritchie’s superb direction, this film got it right.
Now it is officially sequel time and everyone is getting geared up for the big follow-up. Thanks to Watson himself, Jude Law, we have learned that filming will commence in October. Continue reading “SHERLOCK HOLMES 2 to begin filming in October”
A while back, we caught wind of James Bond’s latest outing being put on hold due to MGM’s financial woes. After just getting over the heartbreak of that, we are now hearing that the film might be off altogether. Blofeld must be rejoicing right now. Continue reading “Is the Sam Mendes BOND film dead?”
“What’s your favorite scary movie?” A scene that spooked the nineties, and led to one of the best horror franchises in a long time, SCREAM. Roger L. Jackson, who provided the voice of the antagonist Ghostface, will reprise his role in the newest iteration. Continue reading “Roger L. Jackson providing the voice of Ghostface again in SCREAM 4”
Whenever Robert Rodriguez comes to mind, memories of all the great times I’ve had with his past films take precedent. At the same time, he doesn’t get into the director’s chair as often as I’d like (with R-rated films that is).
The sequel to one of his best recent films, SIN CITY 2, has long been on-and-off much to fans’ chagrin. Word is finally out on the current state of the film, and it is still on. Continue reading “Robert Rodriguez doing a rewrite on SIN CITY 2”
Vampires have been a staple of cinema since its conception, and have lasted through every generation since. Although there have been many different takes and many different styles, everybody loves vampires. These days, thanks to the TWILIGHT franchise, Tweens might love them more than most. With the release of the latest film in the hit series, ECLIPSE, we decided to have a discussion about some of our favorite vampire flicks. Oh, and any Mel Brooks fans should have no fears, Leslie Nielson’s rendition is mentioned…seriously.
Hit the break to check out the episode and its synopsis! Continue reading “GATW Podcast Ep. 16: TEAM JACOB?”
