Thu, May 23, 2013 Based on Max Brooks' best-selling novel "World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War," the story revolves around United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt), who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself.
Thu, May 23, 2013 Concluding the saga begun in Adam Green's hit 2006 thriller, Hatchet III follows the vengeful Marybeth (Danielle Harris) as she continues seeking out a way to destroy Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder), a hulking, seemingly-invincible sociopath rampaging through a sleepy Louisiana swamp.
While a heavily-armed team of mercenaries takes to the bayou surrounding Crowley's home, Marybeth finds herself begrudgingly teaming up with a local policeman (Zach Galligan) and his ex-wife (Caroline Williams) - an expert on the maniac who may have uncovered the secret to ending his murderous rampage once and for all.
Thu, May 23, 2013 You have to hand it to Warner Bros, they have been killing it during their video marketing campaign for Man Of Steel. All of the trailers and all of the TV spots have been pristine. You really can't complain and if you are you're probably just bored with life.
The print marketing campaign for Man Of Steel on the other hand, absolutely atrocious. I'm not sure if they did a study and decided that lens flare and blurs really catch the general public's eye, but that's incorrect.
The studio could use artist Jordy Roelof on the sequel. The 24 year old freelance graphic designer from The Netherlands has trumped anything the Warner Bros marketing machine has come up with in the print media category with a set of character banners which you can view below.
Check out Jordy's website, SYSMATIC for bigger versions of the banners and more of his art. Well done Mr. Roelof.

Spike Jonze, director of 2009's phenomenally beautiful and strikingly sad Where The Wild Things Are, has a new film coming out this fall, as Warner Brothers has just announced the film's November 20 release date.
Jonze's Her, which shot last year, has been a mystery till just about now, with Indiewire reporting on a few freshly revealed cast members: Scarlett Johansson and Chris Pratt.
The cast now rounds out to Juaqin Phoenix, Chris Pratt, Scarlett Johansson, Amy Adams, Rooney Mara, Samantha Morton, and Olivia Wilde.
A lonely writer develops an unlikely relationship with his newly-purchased operating system that's designed to meet his every need.

Star Trek Into Darkness has problems.
Carol Marcus in her bra and panties (gratuitous as it is) is not one of them. But apparently this is a real controversy. So much so Damon Lindelof had to acknowledge it on Twitter. And J.J. Abrams had to address it on Conan.
His rebuttal was, besides apologizing, pointing out how Kirk is bare-skinned too (albeit half-covered under sheets). Abrams even showcases a cut scene of Khan (Benedict Cumberbatch) in the shower.
I was waiting for a punchline. Something to let me know this clip isn't real and just a gag. But it never came. This is for real.

According to Stuff.co, actor Sam Neill, who played Dr. Alan Grant in Jurassic Park and Jurassic Park III commented that he won't likely be returning to Isla Nublar in (the previously put on hold) Jurassic Park IV because it's a REBOOT.
"I'm told it's a big reboot, a total re-jig."
Despite some heavy evidence to the contrary that it will be a sequel (hence the title IV) Mr. Neill thinks it's a reboot? Matter of misscomunication? Info leak? Who knows. What I do know, however, is that this could go either way.
But how do you reboot a classic?

Bet you saw that production still of Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston in the Winnebago and thought We're the Millers was family vacation comedy, didn't you?
Aniston as a stripper (Bigger revelation is she isn't annoying onscreen), Ed Helmes as the least-convincing drug kingpin (I think that is the point), Nick Offerman and Kathryn Hahn as an otherwise content couple into... sharing and spider-bites gone to the extreme.
This red-band trailer informs you were wrong. Dead wrong.

It's about damn time.
For anyone who thought Francis Ford Coppola - arguably one of the top five greatest director's in the past half century - was finished, you obviously thought wrong.
News comes today that the legendary director of The Godfather is going back to his Italian-American heritage for his next, still untitled film. The story will chronicle an Italian-American family spanning from the 1930 to the 1960s, specifically, a boy and a girl in their late teens.
Coppola his currently at work on the screenplay and has set up shop at, where else, Paramount, who distributed and financed all the Godfather films. There is no confirmation, however; that this will be the case with the new project.
Since the 1990 release of The Godfather: Part III, Coppola has steered clear of making any mainstream, studio films, instead choosing to do more independent, artsy flicks such as Tetro, Youth Without Youth, and Twixt; all self-financed by the director himself.
I remember reading an article a while back that Coppola always hated working for studios because he felt they diminished the creative freedom a director should always have; case in-point, The Godfather: Part II. He basically told Paramount to go screw themselves unless they give him total control of the project...and that's why even though The Godfather is a masterpiece, Part II is the better film.
Definitely, more on this project as it becomes available.

It's hard not to like Joseph Gordon-Levitt. For an actor of his talent, he seems like a decent bloke. None of that actor-y air of superiority bullshit.
When he announced plans to write and direct the sex-addiction comedy Don Jon, it was easy to go with him. Yeah Steve McQueen and Michael Fassbender went the dark(er) route with the same subject two years prior. But all those great directors he's worked with must have rubbed off on him. And again, I just like the guy.
And what do you know? It looks good.

How else to explain his long tenure of America's favorite comedy star? That or we as a nation have awful taste.
Grown-Ups 2 has an international trailer. Don't ask why (Sandler's comedies aren't typically big draws overseas). Nobody knows. Unless David Spade's head up Kevin James' ass (An image even David Cronenberg would wince at) tested huge in the European markets.
