So now we now Christopher Nolan‘s Interstellar will not only be 169 minutes long, but it will yet again be a PG-13 rated film from the director of The Dark Knight trilogy, not that that’s much of a surprise and the rating reason itself isn’t exactly all that exciting. Also in today’s bulletin we have a pair of PG-rated animated…

The Age has new details on the Sex and the City 2 sequel that to this point has had its story details kept mum. Word is “the proposed story line for Samantha [Kim Cattrall] will be her having to downsize her big-spending life after some of her investments get wiped out. You will see her having to survive…

The Film Editing category is more interesting than you may initially imagine. The award for editing was first handed out in 1934 when it went to Eskimo.

I don’t think anyone is surprised to see a PG-13 rating for Jurassic World, but if you’d like the reasoning for said rating see below. This week’s bulletin also includes an R-rating for Peter Bogdanovich‘s new film She’s Funny That Way, which hasn’t been receiving the kindest reviews, but does star the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Imogen Poots, Lucy Punch, Owen Wilson, Kathryn…

AS ALWAYS, March is too early to get any kind of firm grasp on what will or won’t be an Oscar contender come the end of the year, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t fun to speculate. Last year, only two of the nine films I predicted out of the gates actually ended up receiving Best…

It’s not as if Seamus McGarvey hasn’t worked on films that have been released in 3D. For example, he shot The Avengers as well as this weekend’s Godzilla, but both were post-converted into 3D. As for his thoughts on the format, well, in an interview with Pushing Pixels he doesn’t seem to be much of a fan. I think it’s very much…
