This post is entirely speculation, though it is based upon logic as well as current news. Notice that in the title of this article I sad “could” as opposed to “would” because the last I heard was that Del Toro was busy working on Legendary Pictures’ upcoming fright-feature “Crimson Peak,” as well as executive producing […]
Not the MSNBC newscaster, who looks too young to drive, never mind host a news show. I was watching ETC, on Machinima’s Youtube channel, where they did a little explaining about who’s who in Marvel Studios’ upcoming “Guardians Of The Galaxy.” It’s actually pretty interesting, though if you’re familiar with the characters, or paid attention […]
Part 1: It’s All About The Benjamins I imagine that M. Night Shyamalan, coming off the blockbuster success of 1999’s “The Sixth Sense,” thought that he literally ruled the world. That movie, on a $40 million budget, earned almost $673 million dollars. His followup, 2000’s “Unbreakable,” cost $75 million to produce, almost doubled the cost of […]
Since I am not willing to pay the ridiculously high prices charged by cable providers, I get my television by computer. One of my favorite shows is Spike TV’s “Inkmaster,” which has a new episode every Tuesday, though it appears on Spike.com the following Saturday. And I have no problem with that, minus the occasion […]
Can Michael Bay make a movie where buildings aren’t being pulverized? As a child was he almost hit by a piece of falling masonry, forever embittering him against buildings and their ilk? I didn’t see “Pain & Gain” but I have to wonder if any were destroyed in that film too. Though Bay only produced “Teenage Mutant […]
The title is growing on me, though I still prefer what it was going to be called originally, which was “All You Need Is Kill.”
Welcome to “Postmortem,” a feature that goes behind the scenes of some of your favorite films, and asks: What the heck went wrong?! Paul W.S. Anderson (the Resident Evil films, “Soldier,” Event Horizon,” “Pompeii”), if you’ve ever seen him in a interview, like the one above, appears very knowledgable about the films he chooses to […]
As far as remakes go, there are few films that would benefit from it as much as Disney’s 1979 sci-fi epic, “The Black Hole.” The good news is that, while Disney is working on a remake, they have been doing so since 2009. The first draft was written by Travis Beecham (“Pacific Rim”) then rewritten […]
It seems that every studio is trying to produce the next “Hunger Games” or “Twilight,” no wonder considering that the two films so far released have earned close to a billion dollars while the five films that make up The Twilight Saga have earned significantly more. The thing is, for every “Hunger Games” or “Twilight” […]
Yesterday AMC had an interview with Chris Pratt, James Gunn and Kevin Fiege (President of Marvel Studios) about their upcoming movie “Guardians Of The Galaxy.” Here it is in its entirely. The conversation is interesting, and John Campea, of AMC Movie News, asks some good questions (though there’s a whole lot of fawning going on) […]
