Martin Scorsese is without a doubt one of the most storied directors working today. According to IMDB he has helmed some of the most seminal movies of the day, such as Mean Streets (1973), Taxi Driver (1976), Raging Bull (1980), Casino (1995) and many others, as well as music videos for some of the most […]
I’ve always been interested in quirky and idiosyncratic movie directors – though not always their personal lives – people that no matter what they’re doing bring their own distinct flavor and point of view to the project. That’s the case with artists (not a word I throw around lightly. Just because you’re a director doesn’t […]
For those of us who thought that the greatest problem with the DCEU (the DC Extended Universe) was Zach Snyder’s stewardship, you were right (sort of). Though to be fair, that’s like blaming the small (relatively speaking) bit of iceberg that remained above the surface for sinking the Titanic. Reason being, some executive(s) okayed Snyder’s […]
Silence, the latest movie from Martin Scorsese, looks absolutely gorgeous, as the two images I have included from the trailer will attest to. My problem with the movie–sight unseen–are less with the auteur behind the camera than the subject matter, which revolves around two Catholiic missionaries, played by Adam Driver and Andrew Garfield, who head […]

Looking at the two posters, I think it has more to do with some of the color scheme–lot’s of golden yellows and blues–more than anything else. It’s also been confirmed by Scott Derrickson that Doctor Strange will […]
I didn’t particularly like the first two trailers for Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice because they’re both filed with much bombast and thunder–as far as I can tell–signifying very little. And I might be reading into things a bit, but if feels as if director Zach Snyder equates blowing things up with seriousness, which if that […]
Martin Scorsese is pretty much a legend at this point, after having directed films like “Mean Streets,” “Taxi Driver,” “Raging Bull,” and “Shutter Island” among many, many others. His latest is “The Wolf of Wall Street,” starring Leonardo DiCaprio. I would offer some commentary on the trailer if it weren’t for Youtube loading remarkably slow […]
Lionsgate has been on a roll lately–after purchasing Summit Pictures, makers of the ‘Twilight’ films–and launching “The Hunger Games,” a franchise based upon the novels of Suzanne Collins. “The Hunger Games,” has earned almost $400 million worldwide, which is remarkable when you consider that it cost $78 million to produce and $45 million to advertise, […]
