I’ve pretty much said the same thing twice before, but I really don’t understand where the appeal for a Jem and the Holograms movie comes from, but the movie is coming nevertheless and today we have the first trailer, poster and a batch of nine pictures from the upcoming flick, just in time for it to be attached to screenings of Pitch Perfect 2 this weekend.…

Jeff Wells had a little post that seemed to inspire folks to begin chatting about the ever changing studio logo that pops up before each film letting us in on what company spent the big bucks to bring us each feature. Many started chiming in in the comments section as to which logos they preferred and caught…

Last week I finally had a chance to have a conversation with W. screenwriter Stanley Weiser. We had actually planned on having the interview just prior to the release of the film, but as it turned out schedules don’t always work in your favor. Nevertheless, that doesn’t make what was said any less interesting. Weiser is the…

Why any studio would ever give Entertainment Tonight an exclusive look at a trailer is beyond me considering they talk all over the damn thing is beyond me, but now thanks to LeonardoDiCaprio.com via SlashFilm we have a cleaner copy of the trailer for the Leo and Kate reunion Revolutionary Road. You can check out the trailer just below and…

Paul Thomas Anderson‘s The Master is screening tomorrow (8/16) night at the Music Box Theatre in Chicago to Benefit The Film Foundation (buy tickets here) and it’s such a hot ticket, folks are flying to the windy city just to get a peek.

Paolo Sorrentino is heading to Cannes with his newest film Youth (La giovinezza) and it certainly is getting its fair share of marketing along the way thanks in large part to a May 21 release date in Italy as a second trailer has arrived today. The film has yet to be picked up for domestic release, but I expect all that to…

The first two official pictures from James Franco‘s Child of God have arrived and both feature Scott Haze as Lester Ballard, the film’s main character. That said, the film is now set to premiere at the Toronto Film Festival and is based on the Cormac McCarthy novel. Set in mountainous Sevier County, Tennessee in the 1960s, Child of God tells the story of Lester…

We are now less than a week away from the 2014 Oscars and I’ll be posting my final predictions soon enough and asking for you to place your votes on each category as well leading up to the March 2 festivities. But in the meantime, Bovada (via Slashfilm) have posted updated Las Vegas odds on all 23 categories…

The terraforming of the planet seen in the opening sequence of Prometheus gives credence to Darwin’s theory of evolution. As David (Michael Fassbender) says just before contaminating Holloway (Logan Marshall-Green), “Big things have small beginnings,” and, from the sacrificial Engineer, tiny cells will soon result in a thriving ecosystem. Darwinism, however, is not the only theory at…

Cinematographer Will McCrabb tweeted out (via i09) the above photo offering a look at the uncensored exploding head of Paul Freeman‘s Belloq in Raiders of the Lost Ark before the MPAA made Steven Spielberg censor it with flames to cover up the gore. As the video below from Slate.com illustrates, it makes no sense why the MPAA would decide to censor this when the…
