Indiana Jones 4: First Review And 14 New Photos By Peter Sciretta/April 21, 2008 12:29 am EST Someone has seen Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Jeff Wells has the scoop from someone on the Crystal Skull team over in Spielberg-land (read: I’m not sure how much you can believe this over-the-top positive report), and here are the highlights: “The best of the Indy sequels.” “The film has the strongest supporting cast of the sequels....
Indiana Jones 4: Three More Photos By Peter Sciretta/March 26, 2008 1:19 pm EST A few new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull photos have hit the interwebs via empire and theraider. Again, nothing earth-shatteringly cool, but worth checking out. Indiana Jones 4: Three More Photos By Peter Sciretta/March 26, 2008 1:19 pm EST A few new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull photos have hit the interwebs via empire and theraider....
Iron Man 2 Completes Filming By Peter Sciretta/July 19, 2009 8:36 pm EST Production on Iron Man 2’s principal photography wrapped on Saturday, after 72 days of shooting. Marvel Studios producer Kevin Feige issued a statement to Marvel.com: Shooting ‘Iron Man 2’ was a fantastic experience and we couldn’t be happier. Although there were many challenges in making this film, having Jon Favreau, Robert Downey, Gwyneth Paltrow and almost the entire crew from the first film back on board, allowed us to hit the ground running as everyone was instantly familiar with each other from day one....
Jim Sturgess And Kirsten Dunst To Star In Sci-Fi Movie Upside Down By Brendon Connelly/Oct. 16, 2009 2:05 pm EST I’ve been keeping an eye on Juan Diego Solanas’ surreal-sounding sci-fi story Upside Down for a while now. The picture has been in development with Onyx films and Studio 37 for a good while, and has never quite got off of the starting blocks – perhaps due to its mind boggling central concept....
Jimmy Fallon Cast In Drew Barrymore’s Whip It! By Peter Sciretta/Aug. 19, 2008 1:35 am EST I haven’t seen this officially reported anywhere, so I thought I’d pass along word that Jimmy Fallon has been cast in Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut Whip It! Fallon has been spotted by /Film sources on set of the roller derby dramedy playing “Hot Tub Johnny”, a cheesy hungover announcer who makes nasty comments to all the skaters....
Jurassic Park 4 Will Probably Not Happen, Producers Say By David Chen/Dec. 8, 2008 8:58 am EST After the sad news of Michael Crichton’s death last month, some people were left wondering about the fate of the mostly-amazingly-successful Jurassic Park film franchise. Rumors of a fourth film have been kicking around for quite some time, but now it looks like they have finally been put to bed. According to Comingsoon, producers Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy were speaking at a junket for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button when they revealed that there have been no developments on JP4....
Laurence Fishburne Is Galactus In Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer By Peter Sciretta/April 13, 2007 2:46 am EST UPDATE: Laurence Fishburne to Voice The Silver Surfer in Fantastic Four 2AICN reports that Laurence Fishburne will voice Galactus in Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Fishburne’s powerful booming voice makes a perfect fit, atleast in theory. In the new film, the Fantastic Four will square off against the powerful Silver Surfer and the planet-eating Galactus....
LOL: LA Vandals Spoil Marley & Me’s Ending By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 12, 2008 10:08 pm EST /Film reader Stephanie O just informed me that Los Angeles vandals are tagging Marley & Me bus shelter banners and highway billboards with the film/book’s climactic spoiler. I’m not sure what to think of this. Obviously, /Film doesn’t condone graffiti or breaking the law. I’m sure that I would have been outraged if vandals had done this to Empire Strikes Back or Sixth Sense, but for some reason it seems a bit funnier when the movie in question is the latest Jennifer Aniston romantic dramedy....
MPAA Gives SAW IV An NC-17 Rating By Peter Sciretta/July 26, 2007 6:51 pm EST SAW IV producer Mark Burg and director Darren Lynn Bousman announced at Comic-Con that the MPAA has given SAW 4 an NC-17 rating. I assume they will go back and make cuts to earn a R-rating but producer Mark Burg says “One day we’d like to have the guts and leave it like it is” So who knows....
National Society Of Film Critics Says The Hurt Locker Is The Best Of ‘09 By Russ Fischer/Jan. 4, 2010 8:39 am EST That makes The Hurt Locker the first film since 1997’s LA Confidential to win Best Picture from the three major us critic circles. (The NYFCC and LAFCA being the other two.) Don’t assume that means that future DVD editions of the film might bear a large ‘Best Picture Oscar Winner!...
New Dollhouse Clip By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 22, 2008 12:24 am EST Entertainment Weekly has a new video clip from the February 13th premiere of Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse. In the clip, we see “the first time we see Echo (Eliza Dushku) wake up after having her memories wiped in the special memory-flushing chair” which “leads into a discussion between lab tech Topher (Fran Kranz) and Echo’s handler Boyd (Harry Lennix) about her last “date,” delving into just what being a doll/active means....
Producers Claim Superman Returns Sequel Not Next For Bryan Singer By Peter Sciretta/July 1, 2007 5:39 pm EST Bryan Singer has been telling everyone that he will begin work on the Superman Returns sequel Superman: The Man of Steel after production wraps on Valkyrie. And with a tentatively announced release date of June 2009, production will need to start in early 2008. But Singer’s producers are saying differently. The Mayor of Castro Street producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan claim that Singer will start production on his Harvey Milk biopic within the next year....
Reader Review: Hot Tub Time Machine By Peter Sciretta/Jan. 28, 2010 10:17 pm EST /Film reader Film Savior screened Hot Tub Time Machine, and while the comedy won’t hit theaters until March 19th, he sent us a reader review. Savior calls it “hilarious, retarded, nonsensical, thoughtful, a waste of time, and great entertainment all at the same time.” You can read the entire virtually spoiler-free reader submitted review, after the jump....
Screenwriter Zak Penn Talks The Avengers Movie As CGI, Young X-Men Movie By Hunter Stephenson/March 6, 2008 12:46 pm EST At one point, George Miller was in talks to take Justice League America down the all-CGI route a la Beowulf, and now Marvel’s dream-team flick, The Avengers, might be headed in that direction as well according to screenwriter Zak Penn (X-Men 2 and 3, The Incredible Hulk). Of course, this whole uber-caped enchilada depends on the success of this summer’s Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, as both Tony Stark and Bruce Banner are key players....
Steve Carell’s Dan In Real Life Movie Trailer By Peter Sciretta/June 25, 2007 11:09 pm EST The trailer for Steve Carell’s next comedy Dan in Real Life was attached to Evan Almighty, but has not found its way online yet. Well, our friends at Worst Previews have posted the following E! News First Look of the trailer, which is annoyingly unwatchable because they talked over the whole thing (arg). The movie follows Carell, a widower who finds out that the woman he fell in love with is his brother’s girlfriend....
Terminate Or Trek Yourself By Peter Sciretta/April 9, 2009 12:00 am EST Warner Bros and Paramount Pictures have both released similar movie mini-sites for their May 2009 releases. TrekYourself lets you transform a photo of yourself into a talking 3D Vulcan, Romulan, Captain or Red Shirt Officer avatar. TerminateYourself, is a little less exciting. You can add battle damage to any of your photos, revealing your inner T-800 endoskeleton. Terminate Or Trek Yourself...
The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian Movie Trailer By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 5, 2007 1:24 am EST Most of my friends are Lord of the Ring nuts. They are the type of people who were really looking forward to The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and were really deflated and disappointed after having seen it. I’m not sure if they were expecting a harder edged movie, or what....
The Gate Remake Gets Financed, Shooting This Summer By Russ Fischer/July 6, 2009 11:52 am EST I understand the role remakes play in Hollywood and for the most part I’m fine with it. But when I can’t get through a single work day without reporting on another remake, the grind gets a old. Today it’s a corker: Bloody-Disgusting reports that Alex Winter (yeah, that Bill and Ted Alex Winter) has found financing for his proposed 3D remake of The Gate, which origially starred a very young and round-faced Stephen Dorff as a kid who finds a gate to a prison containing ancient demons....
The Hot Rod Ultimatum By Zach Lawrence/Sept. 2, 2007 12:15 am EST The following editorial is written by Zack Lawrence. Ok, we all knew Hot Rod was going to crash at the box office worse then a spectacular wreck on Rod’s moped. But I am here to vehemently defend its greatness as one of the funniest movies of the year. Not Oscar worthy, I assure you, but in its own way, funnier than the norm....
