Although Vin Diesel is trying, it remains to be seen if audiences will come out to see him in RIDDICK. PITCH BLACK was a surprise, low budget success that launched his career, but THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK was a bit of a mess (although I know a lot of you liked it). So Vin Diesel [...]

Before work started on FAST AND FURIOUS 6, it was rumored that Jason Statham would be joining the mix of buff action heroes. But something went askew and supposedly, Jason Statham turned the role down and life moved on. Well, either Jason Statham realized he can’t carry his own movie or Universal ponied up some [...]

I’ve been pretty open minded about the sixth FAST AND FURIOUS film, but as I was preparing these movie clips, I had to pause and think about whether or not these clips of Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson were from FAST AND FURIOUS 6 or from FAST FIVE. I”m not necessarily saying this is going [...]

I’ve been so amped up for IRON MAN 3 on May 3rd and THE GREAT GATSBY on May 10th that I completely forgot about FAST AND FURIOUS 6 opening on May 24th. Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson and Paul Walker return to their lucrative series at the end of this month and from the looks of [...]

Hands down, the worst PhotoShop job I’ve ever seen on a movie poster was for last year’s THE AVENGERS (click the link to see it), which had almost every character ridiculously disproportionate to one another. The movie was great, but the poster is ridiculous. We have another bad PhotoShop job going on with the new [...]

Given how much he loves the series that got him started and how much time and effort he has put into bringing this third film to the big screen, it’s no surprise that Vin Diesel has taken to his FaceBook account to release all of the new images and trailers for the film. So if [...]

Marketing has kicked into overdrive (haha, puns are fun) with the upcoming film FAST AND FURIOUS 6 as today we’re getting another trailer. I’d like to say that it’s new and original, but from what I can tell there are a lot of scenes recycled from the previous three-minute trailer we saw about a week [...]

Since the last two photos from the third film in the Riddick series have been shots in the rain, I’m going to go out on a limb and say it rains a lot where the film takes place. I know, you just can’t get insight like that anywhere on the internet. Credit has to go [...]

After a subpar year for Super Bowl trailers, the one that seems to have stood out from the pack is FAST AND FURIOUS 6, only because it was so over the top that people couldn’t help but be curious about the sixth film in the franchise. To capitalize on the excitement, Universal has released a [...]

You know how the first three Die Hard films were really fun, even though they had gradually been drifting away from the reality established in the first one, then the fourth film basically just made McClane a superhero? It kind of feels like that’s where they’re going with the FAST AND FURIOUS franchise. It started [...]

Despite every critic bone in my body telling me otherwise, I actually enjoyed FAST FIVE and thought it was a rare case of a fourth sequel actually improving a dead franchise. So maybe it would be considered a “guilty pleasure”, but I’m kind of looking forward to FAST AND FURIOUS 6. Even though he disappeared [...]

Fans of both Vin Diesel and the character Riddick have been eagerly awaiting the upcoming film RIDDICK for quite some time so it’s with excitement that I share with you the new photo below. It’s a little dark and obviously a little hard to see because of the hard rain but if you look really [...]

Vin Diesel has just wrapped up production for his sixth installment in the FAST AND FURIOUS franchise, called THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS 6, and it has taken him no time at all to sign on for another role. Universal Pictures has hired a screenwriting team (Neal Purvis and Robert Wade) to pen a story [...]

Admittedly, this is kind of a lame photo of the logo for the upcoming film RIDDICK, but since there are so many Vin Diesel fans out there that have been eagerly anticipating this film, how could I not share with you guys? Anyway, you can see the logo behind the crew that has been slaving [...]

More set photos have been released for the upcoming Justin Lin film FAST AND FURIOUS 6 and though there’s only one promotional-like shot of Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster and some other lady who I can’t identify, we do get to see some more of the vehicles from the film. Now, car [...]

Dwayne Johnson has been tweeting photos from the set of FAST AND FURIOUS 6 of himself and co-stars off and on for a couple of months now, but today we’re getting a first official look of Justin Lin’s third film. Today we’re not only getting a look at Dwayne Johnson, but we’re also getting a [...]

Dwayne Johnson must be more than a little addicted to the social media outlet Twitter as he’s tweeted yet another photo of himself on the set of his upcoming film FAST AND FURIOUS 6. It’s tough to tell what kind of story this photo is telling, but thanks to Dwayne Johnson’s 140 characters, we have [...]

Just when we thought that fairytale-ish films about witches and evil queens were moving out of Hollywood we get reports that there is yet another one the way. It’s been reported that Vin Diesel (FAST & FURIOUS franchise) is set to star in the upcoming film THE LAST WITCH HUNTER written by Cory Goodman. THE [...]

Sometimes Twitter is a wonderful, wonderful thing, especially when celebrities like to take self-promoting photos of themselves on the set of their current film. Such is the case today when Dwayne Johnson tweeted a photo of him and co-star Gina Carano (HAYWIRE), whom he refers to as his “partner in ass kickins (and fun)”, on [...]

I wasn’t even aware that filming had begun on a sequel to THE CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK. Vin Diesel has been talking about it for a while and we’ve seen some concept art and have even had a few casting announcements, but it’s a little surprising they’ve started filming already. But things work fast in Hollywood [...]

I don’t want to paint myself as too much of an uber-geek, but I was a huge fan of the new ‘Battlestar Galactica’ TV series and star Katee Sackhoff was a big reason why. So it’s exciting to see her get a shot at big screen fame in the long gestating sequel to THE CHRONICLES [...]

I am not a fan of the “Fast” franchise. I saw the original THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS back in the day and don’t have much memory of it. I missed 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS and TOKOYO DRIFT due to lack of desire. I caught 2009’s FAST AND FURIOUS, which reunited the original stars but [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant After the success Universal found with bringing in Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in on FAST FIVE and ended up reviving a presumably dying franchise, it’s no surprise that Universal would try the same thing again with FAST SIX and FAST SEVEN. This time, the studio is looking to bring in Mr. [...]

Posted by: Zack Bruce When I hear news of a new Riddick film, I never take it too seriously. While Vin Diesel is more than willing, the last word on the project was that it wouldn’t get the financing necessary to make a decent film. A small budget and less pay for Diesel were a [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant We should be living in a world right now where Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson are the biggest action stars in Hollywood. But after a series of horrible choices from both actors, neither has managed to cement themselves as the next Stallone/Schwarzenegger. In fact, the void has been so large that [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant The third Riddick film has been on the table for years, even after the second film was disappointing, both at the box office and to fans. But Vin Diesel has always professed a love for the franchise and a desire to go back and revisit it. But given all the problems [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I was beginning to think that Vin Diesel couldn’t do anything but sequels. FAST FIVE was a big success and he supposedly has more adventures in store for Riddick and he was even supposed to be starring in a sequel to XXX. But now he’s taking a drastic detour and doing [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant As expected, THOR hammered it’s way to the top spot at the box office. Some might say it was God-like in it’s performance over the weekend, or that it took in revenue at a lightning-fast pace. Does that cover all the cheesy puns that people are sure to make in the [...]

When you hit the fifth film in a franchise, there are no surprises. By now, you know what you’re going to get with The Fast and Furious; fast cars, scantily clad ladies, muscle bound guys and action stunts that are predictable and over the top. There’s no reason to worry about little things like a [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant No one should be surprised that FAST FIVE topped the box office this past weekend. There was practically zero competition. But what you probably will be surprised at is just how much dough the film managed to rake in. Early numbers have the fifth film in the series on pace to [...]

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant A new poster has been released for the upcoming film FAST FIVE and I have to admit that I’m underwhelmed and a little confused. If you have a film that focuses on fast and cool looking cars, shouldn’t the automobiles at least be featured a little? It worries me a smidge [...]

They are [...]

Posted by: Kristy Sturdivant I think it’s safe so say that until recently Vin Diesel fell out of popularity for a couple of years. He was supposed to be the next big action star after his turns in THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS and PITCH BLACK, but he really just never got to that next [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant I guess at this stage in the series, it’s safe to say the Fast and Furious movies are a guilty pleasure. The first one was good, the second was horrible and the third and fourth were mindless fun. It looks like the fifth one picks up where the fourth left off [...]

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant To be honest, I had kind of forgotten they were even making a fifth Fast and Furious movie, titled cleverly FAST FIVE.

Posted by: Brad Sturdivant Dwayne Johnson seems like a cool guy and he’s a very charismatic actor, but the guy has the worst taste in movies. He couldn’t pick a good script if it hit him on the nose. He continues his trend of questionable script choices with a role in FAST FIVE. Of course, [...]
