No Crossovers: Why 20th Century Fox & Sony Need To Go It Alone
I understand why some fans of characters like the Fantastic Four, Wolverine, Spider-Man and The Avengers want to see all their favorite heroes on the screen at the same time. Imagine the Avengers..avenging, when Spider-Man swings by or the X-Men encountering Iron man or Captain America? It’s not impossible, though it is very unlikely because […]
‘Fury’ Trailer
What is it that calls actors to war (in movies that is, because I am reasonably sure few in the cast of David Ayer‘s Fury served in any conflict)? John Wayne, who’s name was actually Marion, starred in quite a few war films, during World War II no less. He didn’t serve in the military, though […]
‘The Drop’ International & Domestic Trailers
While watching the International Trailer for Michaël R. Roskam‘s The Drop, starring Tom Hardy, James Gandolfini and Noomi Rapace, I noticed three things: The first was that it looks appropriately gritty, but a bit formulaic. The second was that, while you hear Hardy in a short voiceover at the beginning of the trailer, you don’t for the rest. I […]
What Separates A Successful Movie From One That Isn’t
Honestly, I have no clue. Sure, I have ideas (and who doesn’t?) though you have to keep in mind that when I wrote that I thought that Robert Stromberg’s Maleficent was doomed to failure a few months ago that my reasoning was, for the most part, based on logic. The “for the most part” is that I don’t […]
‘As Above, So Below’ Trailer
The picture on the left is from the Catacombs of Paris, which I took myself. If you haven’t seen them, they’re worth checking out. They’re also a bit on the morbid side, but as far as I am concerned were the primary motivator for me visiting Paris in the first place. I was so impressed that when […]
‘Ragnarok’ Trailer
I am not terribly familiar with the Norse concept of Ragnarök, though I do know that it revolves around the end of the world and all sorts of unpleasantness (which according to Wikipedia doesn’t typically include really large lizard-like monsters). I should mention that I found this trailer while I was searching for the trailer […]
‘Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes’ Trailers
Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes – Final Trailer I am just not buying it. Sure, there was that genetically-engineered virus in Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes which reduced the human population significantly enough that the apes could gain a foothold, as well as increasing their intelligence to such a degree that it […]
‘Paddington’ Trailer 1
Paddington is based upon the children’s storybook character Paddington Bear, who I imagine is bigger in Europe, like The Adventures of Tintin, which formed the basis of a 2011 film directed by Steven Spielberg that was produced by Peter Jackson and written by Edgar Wright, Joe Cornish and Steven Moffat. I also expected to be creeped […]
The (Un)necessary Remake Dept: The Incredible Melting Man
William Sach’s 1977 movie, The Incredible Melting Man is probably the first Intelligently Designed movie every made. I don’t mean in the religious, pseudo-scientific sense or even in a particularly intelligent one, but in that it disregards anything that even alludes to scientific accuracy. And I am okay with that. From Night Of The Living Dead to […]
