For the past year my anticipation for the MAN OF STEEL has grown quite rapidly. From Christopher Nolan producing to the incredibly subtle yet extremely affective first teaser trailer’s with voiceovers imparting dramatic wisdom from Superman’s Krypton father Jor-El played by Russell Crowe and another from his earthly father Jonathan Kent played by Kevin Costner, [...]
The first two clips from the movie event of the summer, MAN OF STEEL, have been released and I find them to be an odd choice from the marketing team as far as movie clips go. The first one features Lois Lane (Amy Adams) and Perry White (Laurence Fishburne) talking about something that results in [...]
MAN OF STEEL has premiered to the press in Los Angeles and so Henry Cavill, Zack Snyder and the rest of the players have already suffered through what promises to be the first of many press gauntlets for the film. With a major tent-pole like this, the questions will probably all be the same and [...]
In the beginning of the MAN OF STEEL promotions, it was all very existential and focused on the epic nature of Superman and his purpose. That lasted for quite a while and then we got the final trailer and it was all about Superman in action. But with this latest TV spot, Warner Bros. seems [...]
Spike Jonze is definitely one of the most original and peculiar filmmakers to work in Hollywood. That seems like a big statement but when you consider his wonderfully array of films: BEING JOHN MALKOVICH, ADAPTATION and most recently 2009′s WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE, it makes more sense. He also directed perhaps my favorite music [...]
I almost called this the “final” MAN OF STEEL trailer, but given how many trailers, TV spots, posters and images we’ve gotten so far, I doubt this is the last trailer we’ll get for the film. We’re just over three weeks away and the marketing onslaught is almost too much to bare. But this new [...]
MAN OF STEEL has officially propelled itself to my number one most anticipated summer movie. Warner Bros. has been in high promotion mode, recently dropping another awesome trailer and now releasing another image of Henry Cavill donning the cape as Superman. Standing tall and strong with a slew of military behind him, I’m sure this [...]
David O. Russell’s next film has begun production in Woburn, Massachusetts and today we get the first set photos of stars Jennifer Lawrence, Christian Bale and Amy Adams on set, with what appears to be a very heated Jennifer Lawrence. As far as set photos go, they’re not going to give us a whole lot, [...]
BIG EYES is a project that has been brewing for quite a while. Many stars have been attached to it, most recently Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Reynolds, but funding always seemed to fall through and the film just couldn’t get going. Well, now The Weinsteins have stepped in and fans of the story can rest [...]
Flix66.com and Anchor Bay Home Entertainment are proud to offer you a chance to win a Blu-ray of THE MASTER. Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood), the 1950s-set drama centers on the relationship between a charismatic intellectual known as “The Master” (Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Moneyball) who creates a belief system which catches [...]
“He’s making all of this up as he goes along. You don’t see that?” The one being asked that question is Freddie Quell (Joaquin Phoenix), a drifter who, having just been freed from WWII, has more holes than most of the fallen. His plans to make ends meet include making batches of moonshine and taking [...]
Anchor Bay Home Entertainment has announced that the drama THE MASTER, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson and starring Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Laura Dern and Jesse Plemons, will be available on Blu-ray February 26th, 2013. THE MASTER follows a naval veteran named Freddie Quell (Joaquin Phoenix) who after arriving home from the [...]
Baseball scouts can’t be merely good, just like the team they’re hired by can’t be. They have to win and scouts have to be able to bring in young players to help them do so. Gus Lobel (Clint Eastwood) was one of the best, having shined the spotlight on some of the Atlanta Braves’ finest [...]
Warner Bros. has announced that their latest baseball film TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE (click the link to read the review), from director Robert Lorenz and starring Clint Eastwood, Amy Adams, Justin Timberlake, John Goodman, Robert Patrick and Matthew Lillard, will be available on Blu-ray December 18th, 2012. TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE follows Gus (Clint Eastwood), [...]
Way back in 2010 we got news that big screen sweetheart Amy Adams had signed on to portray musical legend Janis Joplin in a film called GET IT WHILE YOU CAN. At the time the film was going to be directed by Fernando Meirelles (CITY OF GOD), then he dropped off and Sean Durkin (MARTHA [...]
In TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE, Clint Eastwood plays Gus, a curmudgeonly, old veteran, trainer, profiler, astronaut baseball scout that is slowly getting pushed out of his job with the Atlanta Braves in favor of younger, more modern scouting techniques. His friend (played by a severely underused John Goodman) senses something is wrong with Gus and [...]
The upcoming film TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE hits theaters in a couple of weeks, and the studio has decided to release a slew of new photos to get you guys all revved up for the new baseball film. This batch of images includes all three of our main stars: Justin Timberlake, Amy Adams and Clint [...]
When Clint Eastwood isn’t speaking at the Republican National Convention or mocking the President in an awkward skit, he likes to spend his time making movies. To remind us of that, Warner Bros. has released a new image from the film, featuring Clint Eastwood shaking hands with Justin Timberlake. Perhaps this is symbolic of the [...]
Another trailer for the Walter Salles film ON THE ROAD, based on the novel by Jack Kerouac, has been released and it really feels like a rehashing of everything we’ve already seen, but this time with some narrative and jazzy music. However, we do get to see a few more clips of Viggo Mortensen and [...]
Another clip from THE MASTER has been released and this time we are getting a glance at the fire Amy Adams‘ character, Mary Sue Dodd, has burning in her heart. In this little piece Mary Sue Dodd is talking about how they (meaning the religious group) has to go on the attack and defend themselves. [...]
Paul Thomas Anderson’s upcoming film THE MASTER hits theaters in less than three weeks and today we are getting the final trailer which features Joaquin Phoenix who seems to be going a little berserk. The final trailer is short but intense and just adds to the mystery surrounding the film. Critics appeared to really enjoy [...]
Right on the heels of the trailer we’re getting a poster for Clint Eastwood’s upcoming baseball drama TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE. In the film Clint Eastwood plays an aging baseball scout with a poor relationship with his daughter (played by Amy Adams). While on the road Clint Eastwood meets another young scout (Justin Timberlake) that, [...]
I don’t know about you, but I got this overwhelming sense of familiarity watching the first trailer for Clint Eastwood’s new film, TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE. I don’t know if it’s the fact this is yet another movie where Clint Eastwood struggles with getting old or another old-school-meets-new-school film, but I just feel like I’ve [...]
A new, short international trailer for ON THE ROAD has been released but there is still no release date attached. From director Walter Salles, ON THE ROAD is based on the Jack Kerouac novel of the same name. As with all Kerouac books, the plot is a bit disjointed and free-spirited but this one basically [...]
In just a few short weeks director Paul Thomas Anderson’s upcoming film THE MASTER, starring Amy Adams, Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman, will be released in theaters and to keep the anticipation alive here are a handful of new images. These obviously won’t be giving anything away, but for some reason looking at a [...]
TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE hits theaters in a few short months and up until today, we haven’t heard much about it or seen anything from the film. But today we get a couple of images from the baseball drama, featuring Clint Eastwood hanging out with Amy Adams and Justin Timberlake. The film is about an [...]
Earlier today a teaser poster was released for Paul Thomas Anderson’s next film THE MASTER and now we’re getting a really good second trailer. In it we see that Freddie Sutton (Joaquin Phoenix) is a lost, alcoholic soul searching for some kind of meaning in his life when he stumbles upon Lancaster Dodd (Philip Seymour [...]
Anticipation for Paul Thomas Anderson’s upcoming film THE MASTER is building and this poster does nothing but add to the mystery. With actors Joaquin Phoenix, Philip Seymour Hoffman and Amy Adams nowhere to be found, it makes one wonder what significance a wine bottle submerged in liquid means. Is it a subliminal message about how [...]
Amy Adams could quite possibly be one of the cutest and most charming actresses in Hollywood, not to mention she is pretty much a screen stealer whenever she walks into frame. So it’s fantastic news to hear that Amy Adams will be participating in another David O. Russell film (remember, she was the gem on [...]
One of the films I’m really looking forward to this year is Paul Thomas Anderson’s THE MASTER. Maybe it’s because of the subject matter (who isn’t dying to learn a little more about Scientology?), but I really think it’s because of the stellar cast PTA’s assembled. I’ve always been a huge fan of Philip Seymour [...]
I think the jury is still out on whether or not Olivia Wilde is going to be a long term success in Hollywood, but the beautiful actress seems to be doing the right things. Her penchant for comedies is endearing, but she’s careful not to get pigeon holed into a genre and has branched out [...]
If you aren’t completely charmed by actress Amy Adams then you have no heart. Since her role in the 2005 comedy JUNE BUG, Amy Adams has given us a slew of great performances like: ENCHANTD, DOUBT, JULIE & JULIA, THE FIGHTER and of course last years THE MUPPETS. Amy Adams is just one of those [...]
Spike Jonze (WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE) has been hard at work on his next project and it seems that one of his female leads has left and is in the process of being replaced. Carey Mulligan, who was initially attached to the untitled romance, has backed out due to scheduling conflicts and will most [...]
The upcoming film ON THE ROAD, which is based on the novel by Jack Kerouac, will be rolling into theaters sometime this year (there’s still no release date for the United States). So to keep fans interested, a few more photos have been released. Below you can see some photos of Kristen Stewart, Garrett Hedlund, [...]
As a longtime fan of THE MUPPETS, I giddily anticipated the film’s Blu-ray release. To sustain my excitement during the months between the theater release to Blu-ray distribution I enjoyed all of the video clips and postings on their Facebook page, cheered when Bret McKenzie won the Academy Award for Original Song until finally the [...]
Fans have been waiting a long time to see a trailer for the Jack Kerouac big screen adaptation of ON THE ROAD and I’m not sure this trailer is going to excite anyone that’s a fan of the book. But to be fair, adapting a Kerouac novel is just as tough as adapting anything by [...]
The first photos from ON THE ROAD were released over a year ago, but to date, we still haven’t seen a trailer, nor do we have a firm release date. The film’s Facebook page (it’s very existence should be a good laugh for you Jack Kerouac fans) has updated a handful of new pictures, most [...]
Given he’s one of my favorite comedians of all time, I don’t normally think of Steve Martin as an author. But he’s written a few books, one of which , SHOP GIRL, was turned into a film which he also starred in. As funny as he is, his novels tend to have a more serious [...]
After wowing me (and a lot of people) with the incredible WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE, director Spike Jonze has been pretty quiet. He’s one of the most innovative and creative filmmakers out there right now, but he doesn’t make many movies, so any time we get news about an upcoming project of his, it’s [...]
I doubt there’s too many people out there questioning Justin Timberlake’s acting chops, but if there are, then the next couple of years should clear things up. Mr. JT has INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS with the Coen Brothers already set and now he’s going to be going toe to toe with none other than Clint Eastwood [...]
One of the more fun movies of last year was the grand return of THE MUPPETS to the big screen, courtesy of writer and actor Jason Segel. It was hard not to stop smiling through the duration of the film and it was one that I will definitely be picking up on Blu-ray when it [...]
THE MUPPETS is easily one of the happiest movies I’ve ever seen. It’s not only happy because of the lively characters and positive messages, it’s happy because it makes the audience smile. As Gary (Jason Segel) and Walter were belting out their first song of the film, I noticed an odd sensation come over me, [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce It was rumored that Sandra Bullock would be playing the role of Clint Eastwood’s daughter in TROUBLE WITH THE CURVE. But it seems that she has moved on from the project. Now Amy Adams and Reese Witherspoon are being eyed for the role. The film is about an aging baseball scout, [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce Soon we will get to see what Jason Segel did with THE MUPPETS. He showed a really love for puppeteering in FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL but taking on so many beloved characters cannot be an easy job. The overall response has been fair except for the recent gripe from Frank Oz. Oz, [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant When it comes time for the fall and winter movie season, most of us look forward to the big awards movies (THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO, J. EDGAR, etc.) or the big blockbuster movies (SHERLOCK HOLMES: A GAME OF SHADOWS). What we’re not used to is looking forward to a [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce Are people really affected by the fact that Amy Adams will keep her red locks for the role of Lois Lane in MAN OF STEEL? I really don’t think it matters personally. The comics show Lane traditionally as a brunette but over time her hair has been lighter tones. As long [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Set photos for MAN OF STEEL have been flying in lately, with plenty of images of Henry Cavill as both Superman and Clark Kent, along with a few of Amy Adams as Lois Lane. But we’ve been waiting to see what Michael Shannon is going to look like as General Zod, [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce Just like THE AVENGERS, we’ve been getting more and more set photos from Zack Snyder’s MAN OF STEEL. Today a really important piece of Superman mythos was discovered on the set. What you will see below my writing is a photo of the Daily Planet globe. For the Superman newcomers in [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Another day, another batch of set photos from MAN OF STEEL. But this time, we get some great, close-up shots of Henry Cavill in his full Superman costume. Prior to these photos, all we’ve seen is the official image, which made it hard to make out exactly what the costume looked [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce If you haven’t gotten the chance to check out the Guillermo del Toro produced horror film, THE ORPHANAGE you should. Probably before they remake it. Wait—nevermind. It’s not a full blown Spanish remake, it’s just getting the Americanized stamp on it. Mark Pellington (I MELT WITH YOU, HENRY POOLE IS HERE) has [...]
