The final preview for Arrival has, er, arrived. It's just a 60-second ad but it nutshells what we can expect from this sophisticated sci-fi original, packed with possibilities, from Sicario helmer Denis Villeneuve. And by the looks of this ad, Arrival hopes to resonate in a political climate that's charged by talks of illegal immigration, open [...]
Welp, looks like I'm going to have to get around to seeing those first two Wolverine standalone movies as prep, because this latest - and final - installment with Hugh Jackman looks like it could be really good. The title is Logan, which is derived from Wolverine's actual last name, and it finds the X-Man [...]
With Fox Searchlight's big Oscar investment The Birth of a Nation going south, that indie studio's awards push looks to be gearing up behind Jackie, the introspective biopic about First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy during the aftermath of JFK's assassination. Debuting to raves at the Toronto Film Festival - particularly for Academy Award-winning star Natalie Portman - Jackie [...]
Marvel fans inevitably flock to Avengers movies (even when they take the form of a Captain America installment), but audiences are actually excited for the next volume of the GOTG. The first teaser (above) for Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 is a prime example of exactly why that is. In tandem with that first look, Marvel also debuted the movie's initial [...]
Toke up, Marvel fans, because composer Michael Giacchino is tripping the light fantastic. In the first music track released from the score to Marvel's upcoming new movie Doctor Strange, Giacchino channels 1970s era psychedelic rock. It's a stark departure from the scores he's become famous for, ranging from Pixar movies like Up and The Incredibles to [...]
It always comes down to family in that galaxy far, far away. Details and (some) rumors are confirmed in this final trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, plus the first full (if fleeting) glimpse of everyone's favorite Sith Lord. Rogue One - the first ever anthology Star Wars episode - opens worldwide on December [...]
A tale as old as time can't come soon enough, not after these brand new images of Belle and the Beast have debuted - which range from the provincial to the elegant. Walt Disney Studios released the photos through the web site Stitch Kingdom, a Disney Fan page, and they capture the look that everyone's hoping [...]
There's a reason Marvel keeps dishing out new looks from the upcoming Doctor Strange movie: they're all cool. Anyone who regularly follows my blog knows how "meh" I am on nearly all things Marvel. But this new expansion of the MCU has me really intrigued. It's the first Marvel movie in pretty much forever that I'm [...]
It's going to be really tempting for the Academy to give Denzel Washington his third Oscar. They may be compelled to give Viola Davis her first, too. The debut teaser for Fences shows off the acting prowess of Washington, who also directs, and then punctuates the end of this first look with stellar flashes by Davis. Both are reprising their [...]
Alexandre Desplat will no longer be the first non-John Williams composer to be scoring that galaxy far, far away. Following extended reshoots on the upcoming (and first) Star Wars anthology blockbuster Rogue One, post-production scheduling has had to shift. One of the ripple effects is that Desplat can no longer work the project into his schedule. [...]
