New Trailers: 'Ben-Hur,' 'Now You See Me 2' and 'Central Intelligence'

Posted: 16 Mar 2016 11:00 PM PDT

Each time with the latest in cinemtatic technology, be it widescreen spectacle or, now, plenty of CG effects. This one comes to us from director Timur Bekmambetov (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter) and stars Jack Huston (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) as the title nobleman turned slave turned chariot champion.

Posted: 16 Mar 2016 09:30 PM PDT

In one of the most intense scenes in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Rey (Daisy Ridley) is held captive by the First Order and is being interrogated by the villainous Kylo Ren (Adam Driver). As Ren attempts to extract information from her by using the dark side of the Force, Rey's own Force powers begin to awaken and she heroically stands her ground. But the one thing fans probably didn't know about this moment was that the sound department used a purring cat named Pork Chop to make Kylo Ren's Force powers sound more threatening. During a chat with supervising sound editor Matthew Wood at the SXSW Film Festival, where members of the Force Awakens production team were promoting a fantastic behind-the-scenes documentary due out on the film's upcoming Blu-ray, he...

The upcoming sequel Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is going to be full of nostalgic fan service.

Yesterday news broke that Harrison Ford would once again be starring as Indiana Jones in an adventure to be directed by Steven Spielberg, due out in 2019.
