The Marvel Cinematic Universe Will Never Turn To The Dark Side By Germain Lussier/May 12, 2015 1:00 pm EST In reality, if someone was actually a superhero, they probably wouldn’t have a cheery demeanor. There’s nothing funny about killing someone or putting your life on the line for others. Yet in the movies, and specifically the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the superheroes almost always go about their jobs with a sense of humor....

Tom Hiddleston’s ‘I Saw The Light’ Delayed To 2016 By Jack Giroux/Oct. 19, 2015 2:00 pm EST There comes a time in every great actor’s life where they must star in a biopic. Awards potential aside, it’s just something you gotta do. Actor Tom Hiddleston’s (Crimson Peak) performance as country singer Hank Williams initially seemed destined for accolades, but I Saw the Light getting delayed until 2016 makes that an unlikely future....

‘Godzilla Resurgence’ Trailer Arrives With A Purposeful Grimace And A Terrible Sound By Jacob Hall/July 20, 2016 2:00 pm EST Movie fans are pretty evenly divided when it comes to director Gareth Edwards’ Godzilla reboot from 2014. One viewer’s patient, crafty, and unnerving monster mash is another viewer’s self-indulgent and paper thin bore. I’m very much a member of that first group and think that the 2014 film is a brilliant way of reinventing one of cinema’s most famous monsters in a way that actually makes him feel like he actually matters again....

‘Jason Bourne’ Featurette: Matt Damon Is Pounding People Into Oblivion By Ethan Anderton/May 9, 2016 2:00 pm EST It doesn’t feel like it’s been 14 years since Matt Damon hit the big screen as Jason Bourne in the action thriller The Bourne Identity.

But before they roll the dice, Hart will be on the big screen all by himself with a new theatrically released stand-up special....

‘Kumiko The Treasure Hunter’ Trailer: Bridging ‘Fargo’ And Urban Legends By Russ Fischer/Dec. 17, 2014 11:00 am EST Snopes killed the urban legend, but strange and unprovable stories can still live on in film. And there’s often a grain of truth at the bottom of the most unbelievable story. For Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter, the truth is this. In 2001 a Japanese woman, Takako Konishi, was found dead in the snow in North Dakota....

‘Monopoly’ Movie Described As ‘Goonies’-Esque Family Adventure, Will Shoot This Summer By Angie Han/Jan. 14, 2015 11:30 am EST So far, the only board game movies to come out of Hollywood’s post-Transformers mania for Hasbro properties are 2012’s Battleship and last year’s Ouija. But we’ve got one more due out in the near future, an adaptation of Monopoly. Producer Randall Emmett reveals Monopoly will shoot this summer, which means we can probably expect it to see it in 2016 or so....

‘Now You See Me 2’ Director Jon M. Chu Takes On ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ By Angie Han/May 4, 2016 3:00 pm EST As his latest film Now You See Me 2 prepares for a summer release, director Jon M. Chu has lined up his next magic trick: he’s going to conjure up an adaptation of Kevin Kwan’s 2013 novel Crazy Rich Asians. The project sounds miles away from the action- and dance-driven spectacles that Chu’s built his career on, and not just because it takes place on the other side of the Pacific....

‘The Riot Club’ Trailer: Pretty Rich Boys Do Pretty Bad Things By Angie Han/Feb. 26, 2015 3:00 pm EST Every generation needs its preppy boy drama filled with up-and-coming faces. For the late ’80s and ’90s, it was Dead Poets Society. In the aughts, it was The Skulls. Now, in the twenty-teens, it might be The Riot Club. Max Irons and Sam Claflin play the two newest members of Oxford University’s most exclusive fraternity....

10 Things Christian Grey Does That Would Be Creepy If I Did Them By David Chen/Feb. 13, 2015 5:45 pm EST At about the half-hour mark in Fifty Shades of Grey, I came to a sobering realization: Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) could get away with murder. This dude basically exhibits straight-up stalker behavior, and yet the object of his affection, Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson, in a nuanced and impressive performance), not only doesn’t mind — she occasionally seems into it....
