The troubled production finally sees the light of day with the first trailer and due date of June 13, 2013. Directed by Marc Forster, starring Brad Pitt, Mireille Enos, Eric West, Matthew Fox, David Morse, and James Badge Dale. It’s worth noting this is the most expensive zombie movie ever made, it bears little resemblance [...]
David Fincher, Eric Powell, and Blur Studios are trying to raise $400,000 to turn Powell’s comic ‘The Goon‘ into an animated movie, featuring voice talents like Paul Giamatti and Clancy Brown. The duo previously filmed a proof of concept video to raise funds for the movie, but that wasn’t enough for studios. Now, they are [...]
1.Sam Mendes didn’t shoot ‘Skyfall’ in IMAX, like Christopher Nolan did with ‘The Dark Knight Rises’, but his cinematographer, Roger Deakens, shot the movie using the Arri Alexa M digital camera. This allowed them to film in both the 2.35:1 theatrical aspect ratio, but also a 1:90:1 aspect ratio for the IMAX version of the [...]
If you asked me who should direct ‘Star Wars: Episode VII’ I would tell you I have no earthly idea. I think I would prefer a relatively lesser-known director, like say Matthew Vaughn (hint, hint), who has the chops to pull off the movie successfully (like what Marvel does for most of its movies) rather [...]
Notice how this is from the team that brought you ‘Contagion’ and not ‘Magic Mike’? That’s probably all you need to know about what kind of movie Steven Soderbergh’s latest is tonally going to be. Starring Rooney Mara, Channing Tatum, Jude Law and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Drops February 7, 2013.
Jonathan Keogh does the lord’s work: “If Peter Weyland wanted David to learn about cinema while the crew of Prometheus was still in hyper sleep, he’d probably have him go down the IMDB Top 250. This list does change infrequently, and I began the project over a month prior to November 1, 2012, so attention [...]
We know Disney bought the Star Wars empire. Then, we learned what a good guy George Lucas was when he announced he’d be donating that $4 billion to educational charities. The final piece of that equation has always been what happens to the Star Wars universe in terms of movies, video games, TV shows — [...]
Air New Zealand gets help from Peter Jackson and inspiration from The Hobbit for their latest safety video. Sure, this is weird and it would be perfectly acceptable to make fun of it. BUT, unless you’ve been living in a rock for the last 10 years, airline safety videos and instructions from the attendants is [...]
We’re just about in the same emotional place as this young girl from Fort Collins, Colo., who is sick of hearing about Bronco Bamma and Milt Romney on NPR. Clearly, her mom didn’t get her message about there being a new Titus Andronicus album out. [via deathandtaxesmag]
I sort of slept on the news that director Matthew Vaughn pulled out of the upcoming ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past‘ movie, but I guess if he had to be replaced by anyone, Bryan Singer would be a good option? Certainly a better option than Brett Ratner. I really don’t have strong feelings about any [...]
