| 10 Memorable Movie Meals (and How to Make Them) Posted: 07 May 2014 08:00 PM PDT With Chef arriving in theaters (and it's a movie you do not want to see on an empty stomach), it's time to go on a tour of some of the more memorable movie meals and drinks throughout the movies. Whether you want to consider this a full 10-course evening or just a list of one-off suggestions, these are 10 of the most iconic and delicious dishes to ever appear in the movies... and more importantly, we have recipes for each and every one of them. The Vesper Martini (Casino Royale) The Scene: James Bond is a man of many vices, but the most famous of them is his trademark beverage of choice: a vodka martini (shaken, not stirred). In the 2006 series reboot Casino Royale, his love (need?) for this drink gets the full origin-story treatment. He drinks...

| Your Top Three: Seth Rogen Movies Posted: 07 May 2014 07:00 PM PDT Your Top Three is a series here at Movies.com where we choose a topic and you give us your top three picks. Seth Rogen might not be a great actor. He might be playing the same guy in all of his movies, including his latest, Neighbors. But those movies themselves are not all the same. He's been in comedies of all kinds, mostly, but he's done a few dramatic, science fiction, superhero and animated movies, too. The last of those might be where he gets to stretch his talents the most because he doesn't have to play a guy who looks like Seth Rogen. He's been a mouse, a praying mantis, a ship captain and an alien blob. He's also voiced another alien and a hobgoblin in live-action movies. Rogen has also popped up in small roles in movies that you might not count... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| DVD Obscura: The Indie and International Movies You Should Watch This Month Posted: 07 May 2014 06:00 PM PDT New Indie There’s a whole subcategory of the Teen Movie genre that we could call the prom-com, in which everything leads up to the big dance that’s the defining moment of so many students’ senior year. One of my new favorites of this ilk would be the wonderfully off-kilter Date and Switch (Lionsgate), a comedy that takes the adolescent bromance into gay territory without missing a comic beat. Best pals Michael (Nicholas Braun) and Matty (Hunter Cope — skinny on the DVD cover, adorably schlubby enough in the movie to be playing the Seth Rogen/Jonah Hill role) decide they’ve just got to lose their respective virginities before prom; so far, so typical. But when Matty comes out as “a gay dude” to Michael, complications ensue, not the least of... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Comics on Film: Why It's Time for Spider-Man to Go Home to Marvel Studios Posted: 07 May 2014 05:00 PM PDT After a two-year wait, one of superhero cinema’s biggest stars, an architect of the current “golden age” of comic book movies we’re now enjoying, has returned to theaters worldwide. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has finally arrived, bringing back the celebrated cast and director of the first Amazing Spider-Man film, and after a strong opening weekend showing in domestic markets, a third film continuing the threads of the second is assured. Unfortunately, in addition to ASM2 being the longest of all the Spidey films, it’s also not being well received critically, and has managed to polarize any conversation about the web head and his future prospects on film. Not only that, but the latest is also supposed to be the basis for... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| New 'A Million Ways to Die in the West' Trailer: Can Seth MacFarlane Kill Liam Neeson? Posted: 07 May 2014 04:00 PM PDT Update: A new, red-band trailer for A Million Ways to Die in the West has hit online. Check it out, and do take our word that it's not safe for work. Previously: How could Seth MacFarlane top himself after injecting our pure hearts with the foul-mouthed insanity that was the dirtiest teddy-bear comedy of all time? Well, how about with the dirtiest, most foul-mouthed Western of all time? The first R-rated international trailer for A Million Ways to Die in the West has arrived online, and it sorta feels like Blazing Saddles if Blazing Saddles was four times as filthy as it was. If you know MacFarlane's humor, then you already know what to expect here. In his first live-action lead role, MacFarlane plays some average dude in the Old West who connects with a new...

| Posted: 07 May 2014 03:00 PM PDT There’s a sequel to Richard Linklater’s 2011 film Bernie — but it won’t be appearing on the big screen. The Jack Black, Shirley MacLaine and Matthew McConaughey-starring film was inspired by the case of former mortician Bernie Tiede. The small-town Texas funeral director was convicted of murdering and dismembering wealthy 81-year-old widow Marjorie "Marge" Nugent, who was his close friend and companion. It took nine months for Marge’s body to be found. Tiede was sentenced to life in prison in 1999. News has arrived that Tiede will have his sentence reduced to time served and be released on $10,000 bail, but the weirdest part of the story is this: he will also have to live in Richard Linklater’s garage apartment in Austin until the...

| 'Jaws' Meets 'Godzilla' in The Greatest Trailer Mash-up You'll Watch This Week Posted: 07 May 2014 02:00 PM PDT It’s no secret that we love Jaws. It’s also no secret that we're totally excited to finally see Gareth Edwards’ updating of Godzilla this summer. What is surprising is that this awesome video takes two things we're totally hyped about and mashes them together in what might be the coolest fan-made trailer ever (or at least the best one you'll watch this week). Someone over at YouTube channel The Indie Toolbox has crafted this awesome mash-up preview called JawZilla. In it, viewers are treated to footage from Steven Spielberg’s classic killer-shark movie with the audio from the Godzilla trailer superimposed over the imagery. It works even better than listening to Pink Floyd while watching The Wizard of Oz. Jaws already... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Posted: 07 May 2014 01:00 PM PDT In our current pop culture-obsessed climate, it’s cool, and sometimes downright sexy, to be a nerd. But back in ye ole 1984, things were much different. Yes, those were dark days children (or so we've been told). Revenge of the Nerds tackled the subject of bespectacled, socially awkward, sexually starved, dweeby types with juvenile comedy and a lot of heart. It came to typify the raucous 1980s and remains a cult favorite to this day. The nerdtastic film saw its first Blu-ray release this week, just in time for the movie’s 30th anniversary. Since we’re feeling all nostalgic, let’s look back to that part in the movie when Dudley "Booger" Dawson (Curtis Armstrong) won a belching contest against Fred "The Ogre" Palowakski...

| Must Watch: A Real-Life Moment So Perfect the Coen Brothers Couldn't Have Written It Better Posted: 07 May 2014 12:00 PM PDT When you think of sharp, hilarious and rapid-fire dialogue, you probably think of writers like the Coen brothers, Aaron Sorkin or Quentin Tarantino. You wouldn't think of a lawyer in Ohio trying to get a government employee to define what a photocopier is. And yet here we are with a short film from director Brett Weiner, who has taken the verbatim transcript from that deposition and used it as the script for a short film that seems like it fell out of a Coen brothers movie making fun of government employees. Seriously, just watch this. It's superbly acted, very nicely shot and edited, and is flat-out hilarious. This is art imitating life; life so unbelievably perfect that no artist could have written it better in the first place. Follow @PeterSHall...

| A New 'Mighty Morphin Power Rangers' Movie Is Happening Posted: 07 May 2014 11:00 AM PDT Go, go Power Rangers! If those words inspire fond memories of the early 1990s, then you’ll be thrilled to know that everyone’s favorite costumed kung fu fighters are about to return to the big screen for an all new adventure. Saban, the company that brought the colorfully clad Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to the world, has teamed up with Lionsgate to reveal plans for a brand new live-action adventure film. Given the still rabid fan base for the Rangers, and the popularity of superhero movies, this makes sense. The show has been spun off into comics, video games, toys and more since its 1993 debut. It even had earlier feature film versions, with the release of 1995’s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie and 1997’s Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie...
