Brad Pitt‘s WORLD WAR Z came in at #7 on my top ten most anticipated movies of 2012. Of course, the list was made in early January and since then, WORLD WAR Z has gone through a series of troubling developments. It started when the film was pushed back to the summer of 2013, which [...]
I’m always interested in film as art though I rarely find art-house films an entertaining diversion. I have also found as I have aged that dramas, in general, aren’t the movies where I spend my entertainment dollars. Incredible and dynamic as they may be, even at their most authentic, dramatic movies just aren’t as fun [...]
Although there were a few Oscar snubs this year, Michael Fassbender not getting a Best Actor nomination for SHAME was hands down the biggest disappointment of them all. His performance was absolutely incredibly captivating for the entire film, keeping the audience hooked even if it was hard to care about what was happening on screen. [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Although I don’t necessarily like the idea of a movie that focuses on men battling wolves, I have to admit that the first trailer for Joe Carnahan’s THE GREY looks pretty intense. The film is about an oil drilling team that crash in northern Alaska and struggle to survive, eventually fighting [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Filming is still under way on Brad Pitt’s upcoming zombie apocalypse film WORLD WAR Z. We previously showed you pics of Pitt filming scenes on a boat in Cornwall, England and today we have a few shots of Pitt and costar Mireille Enos filming scenes in Glasgow, Scotland. These scenes are [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant One of the films making waves through the festival circuit at the moment is British filmmaker Steve McQueen’s SHAME. The film is his first follow-up to his disturbingly shocking prison drama HUNGER and early word from critics indicate he is just as impressive with his sophomoric effort. The film is about [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce Filming on WORLD WAR Z has just begun so we don’t have a ton of fun stuff to look at but there are some early set photos for us to gaze upon. Last week there were photos of Brad Pitt on set in his post-apocalyptic gear including a cowl over his [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce Bryan Cranston has been looked at in a different perspective ever since taking on the role of Walter White on BREAKING BAD. He’s also been cast in everything as of late from RED TAILS to TOTAL RECALL. Recently, Cranston had to drop out of GANGSTER SQUAD because of scheduling issues. Now [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Brad Pitt’s long gestating zombie apocalypse film WORLD WAR Z is continuing right along with filming, now setting up shop in Cornwall, England. It seems the change of scenery has wiped the smile from Brad Pitt‘s face, unlike the first images we got of him on set. The photos below show [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant We’ve been reading so much news about Brad Pitt’s zombie apocalypse film WORLD WAR Z since he bought the rights to the book by Max Brooks back in 2007 that I was beginning to doubt the film would ever see the light of day. But after several casting announcements, and subsequent [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I’m pleased to see all of these casting announcements for WORLD WAR Z, because to be honest, I was afraid that Max Brooks’ novel was never going to make it to the big screen. It seems Brad Pitt has been attached to star for a while, but the film has been [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I didn’t watch ’24′ and I don’t watch ‘Rubicon’, so the only major role I know James Badge Dale from is the HBO series THE PACIFIC, which he was one of the main stars. Oddly enough, in my review of the series, I complained that the biggest drawback to the series [...]
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Carey Mulligan (WALL STREET: MONEY NEVER SLEEPS and NEVER LET ME GO) will team up with James Badge Dale and Michael Fassbender for Steve McQueen’s second film SHAME. The film follows a man (Fassbender) who lives in New York City and has a tough time controlling his apparently overactive sex life, [...]
Given it had the same producers, was on the same network and has an overall similar feel, there’s no way to avoid comparing ‘The Pacific’ to HBO’s other WWII miniseries ‘Band of Brothers’. In fact, while watching certain episodes or scenes, I felt like I was watching ‘Band of Brothers’, but for a variety of [...]
