| Comics on Film: Why James Wan Is a Great Choice to Direct 'Aquaman' Posted: 05 Jun 2015 09:00 PM PDT This week it was announced that Warner Bros. had found a director for their upcoming Aquaman film, and it's none other than James Wan -- the director of one of the year’s biggest films, Furious 7. Although he’s managed to make a name for himself by directing what’s become a billion-dollar blockbuster, Wan has a number of other great qualities that make him the perfect kind of director to take on one of DC Comics most fascinating icons. Aquaman is unique in a sense because, unlike other Justice League members like The Flash or Batman, a lot of people don’t seem to “get” what makes him heroic and formidable. Often relegated to being the butt of jokes, the film has a tall order in convincing people why Aquaman may be the biggest...

An Investigation Up for Debate Posted: 05 Jun 2015 07:30 PM PDT There's a lot of talk on the internet today about it being the 30th anniversary of Ferris Bueller's day off. Not the movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, which opened in theaters on June 11, 1986, but the character's actual day off. According to an article at The Independent, Ferris, Cameron and Sloane played hooky on June 5, 1985. How do they know? We'll get to that below as we investigate all the different dates that Ferris Bueller's Day Off could take place on. Wednesday, June 5, 1985 The source for the Independent's claim is a 2011 piece on BaseballProspectus.com, in which Larry Granillo presents evidence that the three friends are in attendance at a Wrigley Field day game between the Chicago Cubs and the Atlanta Braves that took place...

| The Top Five Movies That Influenced the Haunted House Chiller 'We Are Still Here' Posted: 05 Jun 2015 06:00 PM PDT "In the cold, wintery fields of New England, a lonely old house wakes up every thirty years - and demands a sacrifice." You're already interested, aren't you? That's the rather eye-catching premise of the killer new horror movie We Are Still Here, which hits theaters and VOD platforms today. It stars Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator) and Andrew Sensenig (Upstream Color) as grieving parents who move into a house in a sleepy old town. It doesn't take long for things in the house to start seeming off, but the mom believes it's actually the ghost of her son so she calls in some spiritual friends (led by Larry Fessenden) to help contact the other side. As you can surely guess, this isn't a very good idea. But what happens next isn't your... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Posted: 05 Jun 2015 04:35 PM PDT If you thought Tom Cruise's craziest stunt for Mission: Impossible -- Rogue Nation involved him clinging to the side of an airplane as it took off, you might be right -- but it's far from the only death-defying challenge the actor took on for the latest Mission installment, due out on July 31. In the newest trailer for the upcoming action film, we see Cruise's Ethan Hunt tackling a mission that involves him diving underwater for an extended period of time. And according to Cruise, who spoke to USA Today about the scene, the sequence required him to hold his breath for over six minutes because they wanted to shoot it all in one take. First, here's the trailer. And here's Cruise on his insane underwater antics: “It’s something I... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| 'Bridge of Spies' Trailer: Get Your First Look at Steven Spielberg's Next Movie Posted: 05 Jun 2015 03:37 PM PDT Steven Spielberg is perhaps best known for being the king of the summer movie. He loves adventure and spectacle and mashing the two together to give audiences something they've never seen before. But while the likes of Jaws, Jurassic Park and Indiana Jones may be his calling cards, Spielberg is also a titan when it comes to making serious, meaningful dramas about the world's ugly and not-so-distant past. So when you press play on the first trailer for Spielberg's newest movie Bridge of Spies, don't expect Summer Movie Spielberg -- expect Oscar Season Spielberg. This is the true story of an ordinary lawyer (Tom Hanks) who is thrust into the extraordinary position of negotiating with the Soviet Union for the release of Francis Gary Powers, the pilot of an...

| Oh Hell Yes: The 'Sharknado 3' Trailer Compares Itself to 'The Dark Knight' and 'Lord of the Rings' Posted: 05 Jun 2015 01:30 PM PDT The Sharknado movies know exactly what they are and why people love 'em, and so they wisely play up the ridiculous factor because that's exactly why we're tuning in and live-tweeting whenever each new installment airs over on SyFy. It's just fun... and weird, and absurd, and some of the silliest stuff we've ever watched, but that's what makes this franchise special. That, and the fact that it's turned Beverly Hills 90210 star Ian Ziering into the campy action hero you've always yearned for. All that said, the first teaser for Sharknado 3 is here, and it's naturally comparing itself to all the best movie trilogies that exist. From Lord of the Rings to Christopher Nolan's Batman movies, the third Sharknado joins an esteemed list of part... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
