A few days ago we received the first trailer for RUSH. Today we get a few more pictures to promote the Formula 1 racing film. I have to say, Chris Hemsworth (THOR) is a striking man. I don’t care who you are, one has to admit his charisma and star power oozes through these photos. [...]

I’ve been complaining a lot about how movies aren’t releasing trailers soon enough (HANGOVER PART III and THE WOLVERINE for example), so I have to give credit where credit is due.

Twenty-five years ago, my parents took me to a mesmerizing epic adventure full of trolls, fairies, swordsmen and sorcery.

Posted by: Zack Bruce Dan Brown’s best selling novels THE DA VINCI CODE nor ANGELS & DEMONS have ever really interested me. No matter how hard people tried to convince me to check out his work, I just couldn’t jump on the bandwagon. Even when the films for both novels came out, I was not [...]
