Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has announced that the action/thriller LOOPER (click the link to read the review), from director Rian Johnson and starring Bruce Willis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Emily Blunt, Jeff Daniels, Paul Dano and Piper Perabo, will be released on Blu-ray December 31st, 2012 (though this is being called a “preliminary release” so that means [...]
The man on the therapist couch, clutching a stuffed bear, is Calvin Weir-Fields. He had a hit novel at 19, but has had nothing but writer’s block since. Then, when she’s needed most, The Muse–Ruby Sparks (Zoe Kazan, who also wrote the screenplay)–strikes, and later that night, Calvin (Paul Dano) is hammering away at his [...]
Time travel is always a tricky topic that almost always falls victim to plot holes and added questions, usually relegating the sci-fi film to campy fun or irritating frustration. LOOPER manages to beat the odds and deliver an original high concept film that is both smart and entertaining led by an amazing performance by Joseph [...]
The upcoming time-travel film LOOPER hits theaters next week and as expected, we’ve gotten another new batch of photos from the film starring Bruce Willis, Emily Blunt and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. These photos don’t seem to be telling us any more of the story, but we don’t really need any more details because we don’t want [...]
Fox Searchlight Home Video has officially announced that the romantic comedy RUBY SPARKS, from directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE) and starring Paul Dano, Zoe Kazan, Chris Messina, Annette Bening, Antonio Banderas, Steve Coogan and Alia Shawkat, will be available on Blu-ray October 30th, 2012. RUBY SPARKS follows a novelist named Calvin [...]
The international poster for LOOPER has been released and it’s pretty much what one would expect from a poster about a future hitman (Bruce Willis) going head-to-head with his past self (Joseph Gordon-Levitt). Not quite sure how else you would display such a plot on one poster so I think this works pretty well. I’m [...]
It seems like every other day new photos from the upcoming action/thriller LOOPER are popping up, so here’s your batch for today. Lucky for all of us Bruce Willis fans out there, we’re getting some decent shots of him, though they aren’t anything new and exciting. In fact, I’m sure we’ve seen them in one [...]
There have been a lot of promotional images and trailers released for LOOPER lately, and though it’s probably just the right time for the marketing train I can’t help but think it may have something to do with the release of THE DARK KNIGHT RISES this weekend. Since Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be in the Caped [...]
One of the many films I’ve been looking forward to this year is the action/sci-fi film LOOPER which stars one of my favorite actors of all time Bruce Willis. It also stars the amazing Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Emily Blunt, but they just don’t get me as excited for a film like Bruce Willis does. Anyway, [...]
About two-thirds of the way through the first LOOPER trailer, Jeff Daniels says “this time travel crap fries your brain like an egg” and that’s the best way to describe how Hollywood has mishandled the notion of time travel in film over the years. So I’m always skeptical about time travel films, even if they [...]
Bruce Willis has had a rough go of it lately, churning out unwatchable B-movie drivel like CATCH .44 and SET UP (anytime 50 Cent is in your movie, you know you’re in trouble). And his next two films don’t offer much hope that things are getting better with both LAY THE FAVORITE and THE COLD [...]
One of the films that launched Joseph Gordon-Levitt into the movie spotlight (he was already known as a TV star in ’3rd Rock From The Sun’) was Rian Johnson’s BRICK. Joseph Gordon-Levitt was great in the film and anyone who saw it at the time knew that both he and Johnson were going to be [...]
When I first read the news that a film title COWBOYS & ALIENS was being made, I felt campy glee bubbling up inside me. Then I read IRON MAN director Jon Favreau was on board and none other than James Bond (Daniel Craig) and Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) were cast as the leads, upping my [...]
Posted by: Zack Bruce Those of you who watch TRUE BLOOD definitely know Deborah Ann Woll, she plays the role of Jessica the youngest vampire of the brood. Not to mention the prettiest. Woll recently filmed MOTHER’S DAY for Darren Lynn Bousman and got back to her blood sucking duties on TRUE BLOOD. Now it [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE was one of those refreshingly original films that surprised a lot of people when it hit theaters in 2006. But that was five years ago and the films directing duo, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris haven’t done anything to follow up their huge hit…until now. The duo is [...]
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant The sci-fi film LOOPER from director Rian Johnson sounds very intriguing. It follows a killer (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who travels through time making hits (as in being a hitman, correct terminology?). Things start to go awry when he must “take out” his future self played by Bruce Willis. The film also stars: [...]
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Paul Dano (KNIGHT AND DAY) has just signed on to star opposite Robert De Niro for the Focus Features film ANOTHER NIGHT IN SUCK CITY. It’s based on the novel entitled Another Bulls**t Night in Suck City written by Nick Flynn. The film will follow Flynn (Dano) as he reconnects with [...]
Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant Paul Dano is one of those actors whose name you may not recognize immediately, but his performance on screen lingers in your mind for quite awhile. He is known for his roles in THERE WILL BE BLOOD and LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE and he is in final negotiations to star alongside Bruce [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant While watching the trailer for THE EXTRA MAN, I remembered just how talented Kevin Kline is. It has been a while since we’ve seen him in a decent role and an even longer time since we’ve seen him in a starring role where he got to show off his acting skills. [...]
Posted by: Brad Sturdivant The second trailer for the Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz film, KNIGHT AND DAY gives us a few more plot details than what we got in the first trailer. I was under the impression it was more of a straight forward spy film with a civilian that gets caught up in [...]
