One Year Away — Everything We Know About “The Dark Knight Rises”

Posted: July 20, 2011 at 12:01 am   /   Featured, Film, Local, Movie News

We are a year away from THE DARK KNIGHT RISES.  And while it seems that there is a new piece of information regarding the production everyday, there is still so much that we don’t know.  And I am completely okay with that.  Nolan likes to play things close to the chest, and I am sure […]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2 moves to the No. 1 movie while breaking movie records over the weekend beating Twilight and The Dark Knight.  I was never a fan of these Harry Potter movies in the past. They seemed really childish and since I didn’t read the books, I felt I wouldn’t […]

First Word On Hathaway’s Catwoman Costume In ‘The Dark Knight Rises’

Posted: June 28, 2011 at 11:26 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

Based on the description that an insider provided below, the above images are the most likely models for Hathaway’s costume in the new Batman film.  I think most fans assumed this would be the case with Nolan being very utilitarian with his costumes thus far.  It just works for the real world that has been […]

Ben Affleck Will Star In His Third Directorial Effort: ‘Argo’

Posted: June 27, 2011 at 11:13 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

As we all know, Ben Affleck has turned his career around.  He went from sliding down a slippery slope of horrible movies including DAREDEVIL, GIGLI, PAYCHECK, and SURVIVING CHRISTMAS to co-starring in some films that I really loved like STATE OF PLAY, HOLLYWOODLAND, and THE COMPANY MEN.  In the midst of that he directed two outstanding […]

I finally saw GREEN LANTERN a couple of days ago.  The nice thing was that I was sufficiently warned.  I read all the negative reviews.  All of the initial excitement for the film had totally went away before sitting down in the theater.  Films are always better with zero expectations.  I have certainly seen worse […]

Joel Courtney, Star of ‘Super 8’, Set To Play Tom Sawyer

Posted: June 26, 2011 at 9:04 pm   /   Film, Local, Movie News

I was not crazy about SUPER 8.  I thought it was good, but my anticipation was not exactly rewarded with the end result.  But I will say that I was very impressed with the star of the film, Joel Courtney.  There is no doubt in my mind that if the kid plays his cards right […]
