Edited 7/28 1113 1532 A revenge flick by Steven Soderbergh, who’s been quite prolific of late–he’s also behind the upcoming “Contagion.” Doesn’t look like it’s anything that we haven’t seen before, but then again, these types of films depend upon how interestingly they handle old tropes.
Superherohype has posted pictures from the reboot of 2007’s Ghost Rider. The first film, directed by Mark Steven Johnson, was a bit too cartoony–despite being about an embodiment of a demon with a flaming skull for a head, which I assume was done to not alienate younger viewers. This version, directed by Mark Neveldine & […]
Edited 7/27 2022 According to Deadline, Frank Darabont has left AMC’s “The Walking Dead” and been replaced by Glen Mazzara, an Executive Producer for the series.
Edited 7/28 1542 1545 Raja Gosnell’s “The Smurfs” isn’t a film that I have any intention of seeing, but that doesn’t mean that someone else (though I imagine that they would have to be under twelve) wouldn’t mind seeing the trailer.
Edited 7/28 1528 Jon Favreau’s “Cowboys & Aliens’ premieres this Friday, and of course Screenphiles will be there.
Edited 7/31 049 The trailer for Peter Berg’s “Battleship” is available via Yahoo! Movies, and, if I do say so myself, it’s looking very Transformerish (not too sure if that’s a good or bad thing yet).
Edited 7/28 2030 Lucky McKee is a talented director, as “The Woods,” and “May” have shown us. He’s back with “The Woman,” which looks a bit like torture porn, though I am obviously not basing that on anything but the trailer.
Edited 7/27 940 No matter what you say about Tarsem and his films, there’s no denying that they’re visually stunning. Here’s the trailer for his latest, “Immortals,” which I like to think as similar to “300,” with less homoeroticism (I think).
Edited 7/27 939 Always in the mood for some good horror, perhaps “Intruders” can fit the bill. You’ve got Clive Owen, creepy goings on with uninvited house guests–seemingly of the supernatural variety–and frightened children, which are always good for a scare or two.
Edited 7/27 928, 941 There’s something about a well-executed trailer. Ideally, they’re like a starter before a rich meal (Or foreplay. Either analogy works): They whet the palate for the (hopefully) more substantial repast to come. A good trailer teases–yet doesn’t withhold everything–which almost sank J.J. Abrams’ “Super 8”, till Paramount pulled out all the stops–and […]
