The first trailer for Bong Joon-Ho’s English language debut, SNOWPIERCER is finally here and although the quality isn’t the best (I’ll update with the HD trailer when it’s available), we still get a good look at what to expect from the film. It looks like Chris Evans gives another great turn and it also seems [...]
One film that has been flying under the radar so far is Bong Joon-Ho’s English language debut, SNOWPIERCER. Boasting an incredible cast and a very original story, it’s ripe to be one of the sleeper hits of the year. But since we haven’t seen anything from the film yet, we’re still living off the promise [...]
Last week we got a nice shot of Chris Evans with his back turned as Captain America. Shot on location in Los Angeles, now we are getting a few more on set photos from CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER. It looks like Chris Evans and Scarlett Johannson (AKA: Captain America and Black Widow) are up [...]
As production begins on CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, the Marvel studio has provided a fun little image of Chris Evans as Captain America striking a symbolic pose. It’s not much, but still exciting to see one of our favorite Avengers gearing up for another film. We also get a little synopsis of stuff we [...]
You might not know who ‘Revenge’ star Emily VanCamp is right now, but the young actress has been steadily proving herself in TV land for a couple of years, waiting for her big break in the movies. Well, it looks like she might have found it, landing the lead actress role opposite Chris Evans in [...]
It’s been five months since we’ve heard anything about the upcoming film THE ICEMAN starring Michael Shannon (HBO’s Boardwalk Empire and PREMIUM RUSH) as the lead character Richard Kuklinski, but a new trailer has been released and if contract/serial killer films are your cup of tea then this film will be right up your alley. [...]
Shortly after CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER hit theaters, the filmmakers started speculating about where the sequel would take the spangly superhero. Writers Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus began working on the sequel, now called CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, almost immediately and even mentioned that the sequel would feature flashbacks. That led many of [...]
A rumor broke late last week that Frank Grillo was the frontrunner to play the villain Crossbones in the next Captain America film, titled CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER. Well, today we learn that it’s no longer a rumor and that Frank Grillo is officially joining the film and will be starring opposite Chris Evans [...]
The search is still on for the next love interest for Steve Rogers/Captain America (Chris Evans) for CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, and it looks like a (sort of) new list of fantastic actresses are vying for the role. Teresa Palmer (I AM NUMBER FOUR), Emilia Clarke (HBO’S GAME OF THRONES), Alison Brie (AMC’s MAD [...]
On paper, combining some of the biggest superheroes in the world into one movie and having them portrayed by some of the most talented actors while making it all live up to the obnoxiously high expectations of the fanboy community seems like a daunting task. It’s not enough just to throw them into mindless action [...]
It’s funny to think that movies are planned 3+ years out, but it’s very common and a necessity when you have a franchise full of superheroes that you want to grow larger and larger. So that’s where we’re at today, talking about another possible Hulk film starring Mark Ruffalo as the charming Bruce Banner/ annoyed, [...]
Director Joss Whedon gave us one of the most successful and, what could be argued, one of the best superhero films this year in THE AVENGERS. So thankfully Marvel Studios did something right and hired Joss Whedon back to not only direct the sequel, but to oversee any Marvel films that have the Avengers characters [...]
It’s been reported that Chris Evans (CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER) and Michelle Monaghan (SOURCE CODE) have signed on to star in the upcoming film A MANY SPLINTERED THING which is being described as an “anti-romantic comedy” that’s “in the vein of AMELIE and (500) DAYS OF SUMMER)”. And not only will Chris Evans be [...]
Even though it’s annoying to report, it’s no surprise that Marvel Studios is re-releasing their biggest film of the year, THE AVENGERS, and sticking it in theaters for the holiday week and will be on 1705 screens for one week only. So if you were one of those people that missed THE AVENGERS this summer [...]
A new trailer has been released for the film THE ICEMAN and it looks more interesting than it originally sounded. Directed by Ariel Vromen, THE ICEMAN tells the true story of Richard Kuklinski (played by Michael Shannon) a hitman who worked for the mob and ended up killing over 100 people for them between 1964 [...]
A new deleted scene for THE AVENGERS has cropped up and this time we’re getting an more in-depth look at Captain America/Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) as he acclimates to our modern times. This three-minute deleted scene will also be featured on THE AVENGERS Blu-ray which hits next month, and if the studio keeps it up [...]
The summer blockbuster, THE AVENGERS, from director Joss Whedon comes out next month and apparently Marvel doesn’t want you to forget because we are getting another bonus clip from the Blu-ray, this time featuring Chris Evans and Mark Ruffalo. These are all behind-the-scenes cuts which is always interesting to see. Plus, bonus, we get to [...]
A lot of Marvel news has been thrown about the last couple of months and it looks like CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER is still casting some big parts so shooting can start on time. Chris Evans will be returning as Captain America/Steve Rogers, but of course he needs a leading lady to share the [...]
After hearing that Joss Whedon was going to return to write and helm THE AVENGERS 2, it was only a matter of time before Marvel set up an official release date. Drumroll, please…THE AVENGERS 2 will makes its way to theaters on May 1st, 2015. That feels like a long way off but thankfully we’ll [...]
Michael Shannon is one of those actors who have been around for years but it seems that in just the year or so he’s become more of a household name. With superb performances in last year’s apocalyptic drama TAKE SHELTER along with a juicy role in the HBO series BOARDWALK EMPIRE it’s no wonder Michael [...]
News for the sequel CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER has been coming in the last couple of days, but nothing as big as Anthony Mackie signing on. Looks like Anthony Mackie is in negotiations to portray Falcon in the upcoming sequel alongside Chris Evans, which will be directed by Joe and Anthony Russo. So who [...]
This summer I have been admiring some of the recent superheroes that have graced the silver screen and realized that they don’t hold a candle to my smokin’ hot hubby. Smart, sexy and gifted with the super power of hilariousness, he is the ultimate superhero in my book. That being said, I thought I’d share [...]
Marvel and Walt Disney Studios have announced that the summer superhero blockbuster THE AVENGERS from director Joss Whedon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Firefly) will be released in a Blu-ray 3D/Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy combo pack as well as a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack on September 25th, 2012. THE AVENGERS follows our favorite superheroes: Captain America (Chris Evans), [...]
If there ever was a popcorn flick that matched its expectations, Marvel’s THE AVENGERS is it. In order to properly enjoy the grand spectacle of THE AVENGERS, it’s important to grab your popcorn, soda and 3D glasses in the IMAX experience. Is the 3D necessary along with all the goodies? Absolutely not. Will it make the [...]
The upcoming Joss Whedon directed film THE AVENGERS is opening up in the next few weeks (on May 4th, in case you missed it) and it’s only natural that talks of spin-offs are flying around Hollywood. We know that there will be another slew of Marvel films, but what about The Incredible Hulk? Mark Ruffalo [...]
THE AVENGERS screened to a select group of fanboys a few days ago and early reaction was extremely positive, pushing buzz on the film to an all time high. But for those of us that haven’t seen it, the prevailing complaint is that all we’ve seen so far from THE AVENGERS is a bunch of [...]
A new image has been found from the upcoming Marvel film THE AVENGERS and shockingly enough it’s not of Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth or Robert Downey, Jr. It’s actually of the Hulk, who will be played by Mark Ruffalo in the upcoming superhero film. Mark Ruffalo has been in several promotional images, but we haven’t [...]
We knew it was coming and it’s now been confirmed that Chris Evans will reprise his role as Steve Rogers/Captain America in a sequel to CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER. The sequel has been scheduled to hit theaters on April 4, 2014. We don’t currently know anything about the plot except that it will pick [...]
Even more photos have cropped up for THE AVENGERS from director Joss Whedon. Chris Evans is as always front and center here as Captain America, but we also get some good shots of Robert Downey, Jr. as Iron Man, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo [...]
It’s been about two days since we’ve had any news on Joss Whedon’s upcoming film THE AVENGERS so it’s about time for another fix, don’t you think? Earlier this week Marvel Studios released a bunch of character posters for the film and today we see that all the pictures have been put together in a [...]
If you watched the last trailer for THE AVENGERS and you didn’t get excited, then I’m not sure there’s any hope that the Marvel marketing team is going to be able to get you pumped for the superhero ensemble film. But they’re going to keep trying and their latest effort features all of our favorite [...]
To everyone involved with the marketing for Marvel’s THE AVENGERS; I thank you for this trailer. Up until this point, I was starting to have doubts. The marketing had been a little cheesy and I was afraid this was going to turn into a big marketing campaign to sell toys (even the movie poster was [...]
With the daunting task of having to fit seven superheroes on one poster, we understand if the Photoshopping doesn’t look completely perfect. But I think with a little more care, they could do better than this. Robert Downey Jr.’s hand looks twice as big as his body and Captain America looks way taller than anyone [...]
The anticipation of a summer blockbuster can be a curse and a blessing. There’s nothing more exciting than sitting down in a nice cool theater on a steamy day waiting for the opening credits to roll across the screen for the biggest summer hit. The downside of this said anticipation is having to deal with [...]
It took a Super Bowl to make it happen, but in the new spot/trailer for THE AVENGERS, we finally get to see all of our heroes together, as well as some extended footage of The Hulk. And you gotta love the extended version (courtesy of The Avengers Facebook page) below, which features Tony Stark (Robert [...]
I remember there being a lot of marketing for CAPTAIN AMERICA, THOR, IRON MAN and THE HULK movies, but I don’t remember it being nearly as cheesy as what we’ve seen from THE AVENGERS. Some of the toys, promo posters and fast food tie-ins we’ve seen have been downright embarrassing. But anyway, below you can [...]
I’m guessing that “Oscar Nominee” title will switch to “Oscar Winner” come the end of February. But Octavia Spencer who has won most of the major awards for her performance in THE HELP has just signed on to star in Bong Joon-Ho’s Sci-fi thriller SNOW PIERCER. This will be Bong Joon-Ho’s first English Speaking directing [...]
Forty-seven was the number of times I picked up the remote control to fast forward through the boring parts until I remembered that I was reviewing this Blu-ray. Seven was the number of times I was one dish towel away from full frontal nudity. One hundred six is the number of minutes I’ll never get [...]
With the movie just over three months away, I can officially say that I’m sick of posting “new images” from THE AVENGERS. At this point, we could practically print out all the stills from the film and then watch the movie like a flip-book. But if you still can’t get enough of your favorite superheroes, [...]
We just learned that Captain America himself, Chris Evans, was all set to star in Koren director Bong Joon-Ho’s science fiction thriller SNOW PIERCER and when we found out, we were excited for Evans to take on a creative and challenging role. Today we learn that Tilda Swinton and Jamie Bell could be joining Evans [...]
When Chris Evans isn’t busy playing Captain America and starring in THE AVENGERS, he’s busy trying to find smaller, more character driven roles like last year’s PUNCTURE. And for the sake of argument, let’s just forget all about the travesty that was WHAT’S YOUR NUMBER. But in continuing with his streak of quality films, Chris [...]
Hot off the news from Joss Whedon that THE AVENGERS would be told through the eyes of Captain America, we get a new look at Chris Evans as the iconic superhero. It’s obviously similar to what we’ve seen before, but for those that can’t get enough, it should help tide you over. But back to [...]
I feel like we’ve pretty much seen everything we need to see about THE AVENGERS at this point in the marketing campaign, so a new shot of Captain America and Thor standing around post-battle (presumably) isn’t anything earth shattering. By now, I think fans are excited enough to see the ensemble superhero film and are [...]
Flix66.com and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment are proud to offer you a chance to win a DVD of WHAT’S YOUR NUMBER? After reading a magazine article that insists if a woman has slept with at least 20 people that they have already missed Mr. Right, marketing executive Ally Darling (Anna Faris) begins to panic, [...]
There’s a fine line between wanting to learn about your favorite upcoming films and spoiling them for yourself. So trust that when you read this article, I’m not going to spoil anything for you and instead, you’ll have to highlight the text below if you want to find out who might possibly be the second [...]
Ever wanted to know what your favorite superhero would sound like if they were speaking Russian? No? Well, you can find out anyway with a new Russian trailer for THE AVENGERS. Normally, I don’t bother with international trailers, but there seemed to be a lot of new footage in this one and I know everyone [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Set photos from THE AVENGERS were flying in at a brisk pace for a while in early fall and today Marvel has released a couple new official images, the first of which looks similar to some of the set photos we saw earlier. Of course, their version is much more polished. [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce You don’t see 90s darling Winona Ryder in many films these days. If you do then you must watch a good amount of indie films. The last big budget film Ryder starred in was THE DILEMMA. I didn’t see that but did see BLACK SWAN. Then before that it was STAR [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant After CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER, Chris Evans firmly established himself as a talented, A-list star that’s deserving of big roles in big films. But it wasn’t all that long ago that he was a little known, unproven actor that wouldn’t be out of place starring alongside Anna Faris in a [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Almost a year ago, James Franco, Michael Shannon and Benicio Del Toro were going to team up for THE ICEMAN, the true story about one of the most ruthless assassins for the mob. Then Franco dropped out and the production was kind of left hanging. But Michael Shannon stayed on board [...]
