| The Geek Beat: How Marvel's 'The Avengers' Changed Movie History Posted: 30 Apr 2015 12:00 AM PDT So there's this little movie coming out this week called Avengers: Age of Ultron. Have you heard of it? At this point, it's a foregone conclusion that the next installment of Marvel Studios' superhero team-up saga is going to be the sort of film that measures its box-office gross in billions of dollars, not millions, and likely breaks a long list of records – but it wasn't too long ago that its predecessor's fate was a little less certain. For better or worse (depending on how you view superhero movies), the Hollywood landscape has changed a lot in the last few years, and let's face it: The Avengers had a lot to do with those changes. With Age of Ultron looming large this week, it seemed like a good time to look back to a time when everyone... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Posted: 29 Apr 2015 09:30 PM PDT Here are a bunch of little bites to satisfy your hunger for movie culture: Trailer reactions by fictional characters are no longer just a meme. In a nice bit of Disney synergy, here are the emotions from Pixar's Inside Out watching the trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron (via First Showing): Speaking of Avengers: Age of Ultron, here's how to make a Captain America shield pizza (via Geekologie): And here's Jeremy Renner in character as Hawkeye singing a song about his worth as a super hero on The Tonight Show: What if Jim Parsons had played Loki in the first Avengers movie? This parody (not featuring the real Parsons) shows us: And here's another new Avengers parody, in which Nick Fury has some...

| New on DVD/Blu-ray: 'Paddington,' 'Inherent Vice,' 'The Gambler' and More Posted: 29 Apr 2015 08:30 PM PDT Paddington - The Weinstein Company - Blu-ray and DVD Director: Paul King Cast: Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, Peter Capaldi. Full cast + crew We've talked about Paddington a lot lately, so you may be tired of us telling you it's a tremendous family film, but if you've somehow escaped all of our praise for it and our chats with producer David Heyman, well, guess what? It's a tremendous family film. You don't have to be a kiddo to appreciate this delightful, magical film about a talking bear who goes to London in search of a new home after his is destroyed. It's got incredible production design, a really smart sense of humor, a terrific cast, and a message about acceptance that anyone can get...

| Bryan Singer Reveals 'X-Men: Apocalypse' Concept Art and Set Photos as Production Begins Posted: 29 Apr 2015 07:00 PM PDT X-Men: Apocalypse started shooting this week, and that may seem surprising given that we've been hearing about this next installment in the Marvel-based mutant franchise for a while now. Oscar Isaac was announced for the role of the titular villain way back in November, and further casting of characters and hype about how much bigger and better the X-Men: Days of Future Past follow-up will be have been trickling in ever since. But it was only two days ago that director Bryan Singer shared a photo from the set on day one of production. The Instagram below reminds us that Apocalypse will be set in 1983 -- and aren't you jealous of whatever characters are getting to see the original version of Return of the Jedi on the big screen? I hope Singer has one of the... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Turn Your House Into a Horror Movie With This Futuristic Game Posted: 29 Apr 2015 05:10 PM PDT Do you like horror movies but hate the fact that they're just movies aren't interactive enough? And do you like horror games, but are annoyed by the fact that they don't take place in your own house? Well, congratulations there's something on the way that can solve both of your oddly specific, and very first-world-y problems. It's called Night Terrors and it promises to turn your own house into an interactive horror movie. Here's the basic gist of it. You wait for night fall, strap on a pair of headphones, turn off all the lights, and open up Night Terrors on your phone. The game uses the camera to make a map of your entire house, and then it uses augmented reality to insert things into your house. It can make virtual copies of the paintings you have on...

| A Female '21 Jump Street' Spin-off Is Reportedly In The Works Posted: 29 Apr 2015 03:40 PM PDT As is the case with all movies made by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, there are a ton of jokes and characters in 21 Jump Street that would seemingly lead you into a completey different movie if you just followed them for a little bit. You could make an entire movie about the history of, say, Ice Cube's hardass police captain, or the drug dealing motorcycle gang that gets infiltrated by Johnny Depp. Or, better yet, you could tell a whole side story involve the other two undercover cops already working out of the 21 Jump Street precinct, Fugazy and Jr. Jr. If you don't remember them, Fugazy and Jr. Jr. were the names of the two young female cops played by Dakota Johnson and Rye Rye who are busting criminals left and right while Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill's characters...

| A Final 'Mad Max: Fury Road' Trailer Is Here To Blow You Away Posted: 29 Apr 2015 01:30 PM PDT UPDATE: Two weeks out, we've got one final trailer for Mad Max: Fury Road. Check it out at the bottom of this post. At this point whoever Warner Bros. hired to cut the trailers for Mad Max: Fury Road is just showing off. They know they keep knocking it out of the park each and every time, and their latest is basically running a victory lap. And the particularly cool thing about it is that it doesn't even have a ton of new footage in it. Truth is, there's going to be a ton of people who walk into movie theaters on May 15, 2015 and buy tickets for Fury Road without even knowing that there are three other Mad Max movies. And it's not exactly their fault. The last Mad Max movie came out in 1985. People who were teenagers when it came out are now old enough to...

| Posted: 29 Apr 2015 12:00 PM PDT The Six Billion Dollar Man: Damián Szifrón (above), who grew up in Argentina watching American TV shows like The Six Million Dollar Man, will now write the big-screen adaptation of the series. Mark Wahlberg will star, and Peter Berg will direct. Szifrón most recently wrote and directed the richly imaginative Wild Tales, a dazzling black comedy consisting of multiple segments about the pressures of modern-day life; it was nominated for an Academy Award as Best Foreign Langauge Film. [Variety] Don't Look Now: Another 70s treasure, the moody thriller Don't Look Now, is starting down the remake path.
