Check Out The Trailer For Michael Fassbender’s ‘Macbeth’!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
Shakespeare never goes out of style and ‘Macbeth‘ is proof of that. Of course, if you serve your Shakespeare with a side of Michael Fassbender (‘X-Men: First Class‘) as the titular Scottish duke, it’s a match made in heaven and has to be, at least part of, the reason the screening received a 10-minute standing ovation after it’s screening at the 68th Cannes Film Festival.

Batman 30th Anniversary – 4K UHD Review!
In 1989, the birth of summer blockbusters became real with Tim Burton’s Batman. Before that, the superhero genre was not the behemoth it was today with A-list actors, 9-figure budgets, and compelling dramatic tones. In fact, it was quite the opposite. Us comic books fans had to settle for slapstick one-liners in low budget sets and costumes to get our favorite heroes on screen. It wasn’t until that summer where everything changed and paved the way for films like X-Men, the MCU, and Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight franchise. It was a strange decision too, but Warner Bros. and DC Comics decided on the young filmmaker Tim Burton to take on the large budget and big named comic book adaptation of Batman. Until then, Burton had only done Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure and Beetlejuice.

WWE: Money in the Bank 2017 Predictions!
Hi everyone, Bryan here….
Strung 20 feet high over the center of squared circle, there hangs a metal briefcase with a contract inside. That contract guarantees one WWE superstar a match at anytime, anywhere for the biggest championship in the business. On July 18th in 2010, WWE held their first ever Money in the Bank PPV held in Kansas City, which was met with an abundant amount of praise. The WWE superstars must climb a very tall ladder and unhook the briefcase to win the match. There are no rules, no disqualifications, and all weapons and interferences are legal.
Swank/Wilkinson Join Holocaust ‘Denier’ Adaptation!!!
Hey guys, Jana here,
Deborah E. Lipstadt’s book, ‘History on Trial: My Day in Court With a Holocaust Denier‘ written in 1993 is the basis for a film from Participant Media with BBC Films. The project has been adapted by David Hare (‘The Reader‘, ‘The Hours‘) and snagged a couple of A-list actors in the form of Hilary Swank (‘Million Dollar Baby‘, ‘Boys Don’t Cry‘) and Tom Wilkinson (‘Batman Begins‘, ‘Michael Clayton‘).
Film Review: ‘Stonehearst Asylum’!!
Janet W., Here…
Stonehearst Asylum opens out of focus until a professor (Brendan Gleeson) begins his lecture on treating hysterics and lunatics. Enters the first patient in rags and disheveled hair, Eliza Graves (Kate Beckinsale). She is weak, helpless, and maintains that she is of sane mind. However, with a poke in her lower back, Eliza is sent into convulsions due to her fear of being emotionally and physically touched, which the professor states as proof of her insanity. Eliza is sent back and another patient comes that we do not get to see. Flash forward to a forest in the winter. A nerdy stranger is trudging through the woods and hitches a ride to Stonehearst Asylum. He tells Mickey Finn (David Thewlis), the chief steward that he is Dr. Edward Newgate (Jim Sturgess) and he wishes to practice asylum medicine.
Film Review: ‘Birdman’!!
Hi everyone, Bryan Here…
It’s a very rare occurrence where a film changes the game on almost every aspect of filmmaking. From acting to camerawork, ‘Birdman‘ literally soars above the rest where fierce emotions of erratic actors are put on display in a chaotic yet darkly comedic setting inside the St. James Theatre on West 44th Street in Manhattan. Not only do these actors turn in Oscar-worthy performances of the highest order, but director Alejandro G. Inarritu (Amores Perros) and cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki have given us an image so fresh and that pushes the bounds, that this is one of the most pleasing films of the year, visually speaking and unlike anything you might have seen before. Lubezki has worked with Alfonso Cauron on ‘Children of Men‘ and the recent film ‘Gravity‘.
Film Review: ‘Bad Words’!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
Jason Bateman is mostly known for his role as Michael Bluth on the hit comedy series ‘Arrested Development‘ and a big variety of other comedy roles ranging from movies like ‘Horrible Bosses‘ to ‘Teen Wolf 2‘. He is quite the comedic actor with perfect timing and is always great to see on the big screen. Bateman has said that he does these acting roles so that one day he can get behind the camera and direct, as this is his ultimate goal.

Tarantino XX: 8-Film Collection Blu-Ray Announced and Detailed!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
Good news for your Tarantino fans out there. Actually, I don’t know whether to be happy or angry about this. Lionsgate and Miramax are releasing a big Tarantino movie set on bluray on November 20th. It will contain 8 films and two bonus discs. This kind of sucks, because I imagine most of us already own all of these on bluray already individually. Now we have to purchase all of these again. And, why are the ‘Kill Bill’ films not in one film like we have been promised for years now. I will admit, the artwork is cool from MondoTees, but I can’t justify purchasing this, for two extra bonus discs. These look to be the same blurays that we already have. And why did they not wait till next year to release this, so they could include ‘Django Unchained’? Official press release below.
The Top 26 Film Vehicles!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
Have you ever wanted to own a specific car from a film or television series? I have compiled a list of my favorite vehicles from films and television series that I want to own someday. Now, I am excluding spaceships, because that is a whole different list. This particular list of vehicles all stay on the ground. It was fun coming up with this list, and I imagine some of you out there actually own these cars or are working on restoring one. Or just maybe it will give you an idea to make one of these in real life. Enjoy.
Look at What Merle Dixon Looks Like in the Upcoming Season of ‘Walking Dead’!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
When did we last see Merle Dixon (Michael Rooker)? I believe it was when Rick left Merle handcuffed to a pipe on the roof of that building in the first season. When zombies broke into the building and made their way up to the roof, Merle had no choice but to chop his hand off so that he could survive. And we also saw that he cauterized his wound with an iron on one of the lower floors of that building.
‘Garbage Pail Kids’ Film Officially in Production!!!
Hi, Bryan Here….
We reported a while ago that there will be a ‘Garbage Pail Kids’ film coming at some point. It will not have anything to do with the 80’s film of the same name. Michael Eisner’s The Tornante Company will finance and produce the development of a feature film based on Garbage Pail Kids’. Eisner bought the rights to the trading card phenomenon a few years ago along with the card company.
