Sony Pictures Casts Rhys Ifans as the Villain Lizard in “Spider-Man” Reboot
With each subsequent announcement by Sony, I get more and more sold on the Spider-Man reboot. At first, I understood the logic behind it (especially after the atrocity that was Spider-Man 3), but I didn’t think it was right to reboot so quickly. The studio quickly countered media people like me by hiring a quality […]
The Kids Are All Right
Every year has them, the “indie” hit that is all the buzz. Most likely your friend with thick rimmed glasses and stylish clothing from Urban Outfitters will tell you what you are missing out on. Slowly this film will seep into common pop culture, and transcend above normal indie fare. Last summer we had both […]
“It’s Kind of a Funny Story” HD Trailer Starring Zach Galfianakis
I’ve been lamenting the fact that this year we have yet to get our film of quirky heartfelt, well plotted indie comedies. In fact, last year with Away We Go and (500) Days of Summer, we got two. It is no surprise that this film shares much in common with the marketing of those two […]
“The Kids Are All Right” HD Trailer Starring Mark Ruffalo and Julianne Moore
We’ve seen this trailer many times. Play a current catchy indie rock song (this time Vampire Weekend’s “Cousin”), put it over a talented cast, and emote heavily. That isn’t to say it doesn’t look good, on the contrary the movie looks great. It does not stop it from being marketed to pretentious indie snobs such […]
Valentine’s Day – Movie Review
An all star cast joins forces to celebrate love in the new Garry Marshall film Valentine’s Day. It’s a cast so star-studded, it has to be listed alphabetically to sooth competing egos: Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Bradley Cooper, Patrick Dempsey, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Topher Grace, Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Queen Latifah, Taylor Lautner, George […]
Spider-Man Coming To Theaters 2012 In 3D
The Spider-Man reboot has a release date, and it will be battling the sequel to last year’s successful reboot, Star Trek. The film will be released in 3D on July 3, 2012. The film is still untitled, but has a director, (500) Days of Summer‘s Marc Webb. Producing the film will be Marvel Entertainment’s Avi […]
Golden Globe Predictions 2010 – Film
Here we are, a day before the second biggest award show of the movie season. Every year the Hollywood Foreign Press nominate people in the arts of film and television, and every year someone gets angry at the lack of nominations or the fact that the “wrong” person won. I like the Golden Globes because […]
Marc Webb Directing New Spider-Man Franchise?
After the news that Spider-Man 4 was a no go, and that director Sam Raimi and star Tobey Macguire dropped out speculation started on who would be the new director. The (500) Days of Summer director Marc Webb (what a perfect name for the Spidey series), is apparently being courted by Sony Pictures to shoot […]
(500) Days of Summer
You know the story already, it has been done a million times before. Boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, etc. etc. etc. Only this time it follows those same beats, but it shakes them up and puts them in a different key to give us something new and original. (500) Days of […]
