“Tintin,” while perhaps not for everyone, is so well-done that the occasional misstep is easily forgotten. I must admit that I went into “The Adventures of Tintin” with somewhat low expectatations, due less to the input of Steven Spielberg, (director) Peter Jackson (producer) and Steven Moffat (Dr. Who, Sherlock), Edgar Wright (Shawn of the Dead, […]
According to Deadline, Alan Taylor, of HBO’s “A Games of Thrones,” will be helming Marvel’s “Thor 2” after Patty Jenkins left the project for “creative reasons.” “Creative reasons” is in quotes because whatever was the real reason that Jenkins left the project, I am not sure that creativity had anything to do with it.
I am not quite sure what an “announcement trailer” is, since I have always thought that every trailer exists to announce something (namely, that a new movie is coming). That being said, I think that Peter Jackson is a talented director, though I was most interested when I learned that Guillermo Del Toro was at […]
Here’s the trailer for Jonathan Liebesman’s “Wrath of the Titans,” the sequel to Louis Leterrier’s “Clash of the Titans,” which is itself a remake of a 1981 film by Desmond Davis. Liebesman also directed “Darkness Falls,” which took a great idea–the story of the Tooth Fairy, and her murderous attachment to the collection of teeth, […]
I found this makeup test for The Green Goblin, from Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man from 2002. It’s visually closer in appearance to the character from the Marvel comics, and certainly will not bring any comparisons to the Power Rangers, as the version that Raimi finally used, did. via SuperHeroHype
Here’s the trailer for Barry Sonnenfeld’s Men In Black 3. It looks interesting, and while I have to admit that Josh Brolin makes a great Tommy Lee Jones, it’s become apparent–if it weren’t already–that the star of this film is Will Smith. Apropos of nothing, I find it interesting that, according to IMDB, Sonnenfeld was […]
According to Deadline, Patty Jenkins has left as director of the sequel to 2011’s “Thor.” This is remarkable because she just got the assignment a month or two ago. Marvel Studios can be notoriously difficult to work with, and more than a little bit tight with the purse strings, though I don’t want to assume […]
Here’s a link to the trailer for “The Cabin in the Woods,” written and produced by Joss Whedon. It’s a cool trailer, and reminds me of the “Buffy, The Vampire Slayer,” “The Initiative” storyline mixed liberally with Stephen King’s “Under The Dome.”
Christopher Nolan, director of the upcoming “The Dark Knight Rises” and Tom Hardy, who plays Bane, discuss the character, his fighting style, and motivations. Thanks to Deadline for the head’s up!
Before I begin, let me establish a few things: The ‘Frank’ in question is Frank Darabont, someone who I not only have never met, but whom has no idea that I exist (nor should he, unless he has an unquenchable desire to learn about IT from the perspective of someone who works in a Washington, […]
