'Before I Fall' Trailer Is Like a Young Adult 'Groundhog Day'

Posted: 18 Jan 2017 09:00 PM PST

This week we've already seen further evidence that E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is such a good movie that decades later it still wholly owns the "kids hiding something supernatural from their parents" subgenre. But it's not the only classic sci-fi movie that is still the gold standard for its genre. Groundhog Day will forever own the "stuck in a repeating time loop" genre, no matter how many different ways it's presented. Case in point, the trailer for Before I Fall, which is about to premiere at Sundance. This is basically the young adult melodrama version of Groundhog Day, with Zoey Deutch stuck in the Bill Murray role. Based on the trailer we have no clue why she's stuck in this loop or what she'll do to get out of it. But if we...

Watch the Mysterious Trailer for Sundance Thriller 'The Discovery'

Posted: 18 Jan 2017 07:30 PM PST

The 2017 Sundance Film Festival kicks off tomorrow, and while we wait for the buzz on what's good and what's not we're starting to get first looks at some of the anticipated selections. Today Netflix dropped a trailer for its original sci-fi romance The Discovery, and if it wasn't on your radar before, it will be after you watch.  Starring Jason Segel, Rooney Mara, Riley Keough, Jesse Plemons and Sundance founder Robert Redford in one of his alleged final acting roles, The Discovery is about a love story set in a future in which the existence of an afterlife has been proven and everybody is killing themselves to get there. It seems Segel and Mara are the coupled characters. But that's not entirely clear, as the trailer has nothing to...

The Animated Spider-Man Movie Will Officially Be About Miles Morales, Not Peter Parker

Posted: 18 Jan 2017 06:00 PM PST

If your only exposure to Spider-Man has been through the live-action movies, then you've only ever known the one Spider-Man. Sure, he may have been played by three different actors with three different takes, but every time they were playing Peter Parker. He's not the only teen to ever put on the Spidey suit, though. The other big name to do so is Miles Morales, and he's finally getting a movie. No, the Tom Holland Spider-Man we just met in Captain America: Civil War isn't getting replaced. That version will still continue on with Spider-Man: Homecoming. But that's not the only Spider-Man movie in the works at Sony. They're also doing an animated movie - one that will be disconnected from the Marvel Cinematic Universe - with The Lego Movie creators Phil...

Your '90s Trapper Keeper Is Being Turned Into a Movie. No, Seriously

Posted: 18 Jan 2017 04:30 PM PST

If you went to school in the late '80s or '90s, you'll no doubt know that nothing mattered more than the cover art on your Trapper Keeper. Maybe you were a Transformers kid. Maybe you had a totally rad sports car. Maybe you had unicorns and rainbows. Whatever the case, we can all agree that Trapper Keeper were kind of a big deal. And now they're going to be a big deal on the big screen, too. THR reports '90s trapper keeper art icon Lisa Frank is teaming up with producer Jon Shestack to turn her imaginary world of organizational cover art into a movie. It'll be a mixture of live-action and animation and tell a story about...well, no one knows. It's not like Trapper Keepers had elaborate backstories. The inside flap didn't have ten pages of...

'Beauty and the Beast' Star Emma Watson Explains Why She Chose Belle Over Cinderella

Posted: 18 Jan 2017 12:00 PM PST

Emma Watson made her movie debut at the age of 11 in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and literally grew up on screen. But it wasn't until the series concluded in 2011 that we started to get a sense of her range as an actress, apart from her signature role as Hermione Granger. She acquitted herself quite well in My Week With Marilyn and The Perks of Being a Wallflower, capably handling key supporting roles. Watson really stood out in Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring, as a fame-obsessed young woman who happily breaks into the homes of celebrities to steal their material goods. Darren Aronofsky's Noah allowed her to showcase her dramatic abilities, such as in this scene opposite Anthony Hopkins. About four years ago, Watson was in very early talks to star...
