There was quite the flutter this weekend when a red-band trailer for David Fincher’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo leaked online. Not only was it our first look at the highly-anticipated movie, the very nature of its release soon became suspicious. The image quality was surprisingly good for something shot in a theater, the audio was pristine and in stereo, the trailer wasn’t taken down on Youtube despite getting over 1.5...

As far as pedigree goes, The Adventures of Tintin is certainly at the higher end of the spectrum. Steven Spielberg is directing and producing (along with Peter Jackson). Edgard Wright (Scott Pilgrim vs the World), Joe Cornish (Attack the Block) and Steven Moffat (Sherlock) have written the script. WETA (arguably the best visual effects house in the world) is behind the performance-capture. The voice-cast is absolutely insane. So, yeah, it...

As of this moment, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is just 78 days away from release. Fans are getting antsy for the conclusion they’ve been waiting for with bated breath for years… and at this point, I know plenty of non-fans who are getting caught up in the excitement too.

There have been rumors that the film began shooting without a complete script, the production has certainly not been leisurely (Matthew Vaughn came onboard as director only in May — thirteen months before the film’s release date), the cast went through a few swaps before being locked down and almost all the promotional material has...

Oh, 300, what have ye wrought. Zack Snyder’s hugely successful epic has had quite the the influence on swords-and-sandals tales since its release, and the new posters for Tarsem Singh’s Immortals are a striking example of that. But then, given that this project shares 3 producers with that one, maybe that isn’t so hard to believe. I am intrigued by this film due to many reasons, not the least of which are Tarsem Singh (in...

I’ll be honest: This is the film I’m most looking forward to this year. That teaser trailer was a thing of beauty (although I can’t say I fully understand it — which may be intentional), and the first poster released simultaneously (you can see it here) was gorgeous too. But all that is old news. What’s new news is the latest poster, released on IMDb just a little while ago. Since IMDb seems to have the...
