Disney CEO Confirms Release Years For ‘Star Wars Episode VIII’ And ‘IX,’ Teases More Trilogies By Germain Lussier/Jan. 29, 2015 5:06 pm EST Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens December 18 of this year. The first Star Wars standalone film opens December 16, 2016. After that, we have a good idea of what the next few years have in store for Star Wars but nothing is 100% set in stone. For example, though every single outlet in the world has confirmed Rian Johnson is directing Star Wars Episode VIII, along with the filmmaker himself, the company has yet to acknowledge it....

Exclusive ‘The Tribe’ Poster From Mondo And Artist Alan Hynes By Russ Fischer/July 8, 2015 10:00 am EST The Tribe is a very unique film. It’s the story of a deaf young man who moves into a new boarding school for the deaf, only to be pulled into the criminal activities organized by a student gang. The film has no spoken dialogue as the characters communicate entirely through Ukranian sign language, which is not subtitled or translated....

Get A Bit More ‘True Detective’ Season 2 Info From A Synopsis And Promos By Russ Fischer/June 9, 2015 3:30 pm EST The second season of True Detective arrives in just a couple weeks, on June 21, and the tension is rising as we await the debut of a new set of characters, played by Vince Vaughn, Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams, and Taylor Kitsch. The two primary promos so far — a teaser and a trailer — have left us with more questions than answers....

Han Solo Shortlist Includes Miles Teller And Dave Franco; ‘Rogue One’ Cameo Rumored By Angie Han/Jan. 11, 2016 10:27 am EST Harrison Ford is Han Solo, as much as any real person can embody any fictional character, and it’s tough to imagine anyone else stepping into the role after nearly 40 years. But with a “young Han Solo” spinoff in the works from Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the time has come for us to meet and hopefully fall for a different stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf herder....

Image: See Another Radically New Lightsaber Design Coming Soon The Star Wars Universe By Peter Sciretta/Dec. 12, 2014 11:00 am EST The Star Wars: The Force Awakens teaser trailer had everyone talking about the new baddie (and possible Sith lord) Kylo Ren’s lightsaber which featured a laser sword cross-guard. Some have argued about the practicalness of this new design, but most people think its cool regardless. And now we learn another radically different unconventional lightsaber design is about to be revealed in the Star Wars universe, but not on the big screen....

Ricky Gervais’s New Movie ‘Special Correspondents’ Goes To Netflix By Germain Lussier/April 6, 2015 10:30 am EST Netflix is quickly becoming a force in movie distribution. In recent months, they’re announced deals with Adam Sandler, Pee-Wee Herman, and distribution on films like the latest from True Detective director Cary Fukunaga, Beasts of No Nation. Their latest deal is equally impressive and probably a little bit funnier.Ricky Gervais’s upcoming film Special Correspondents, which stars Eric Bana, has been acquired by Netflix....

See Concept Art For The ‘Bioshock’ Movie That Was Sunk During Development By Russ Fischer/Dec. 30, 2014 10:30 am EST Bioshock is a perfect concept for a game, and a difficult proposition as a narrative film. The game, played from a first-person perspective, features a largely anonymous protagonist in a massive underwater city, where armored enforcers protect little girls whose bodies have been surgically… embellished to generate a mutagen that can push human DNA into radical new shapes....

VOTD: All Six ‘Star Wars’ Movies In Just Six Minutes By Ethan Anderton/Dec. 4, 2015 5:30 am EST It might be hard to believe, but somewhere out there on planet Earth is someone who has some kind of interest in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but isn’t familiar with the original Star Wars trilogy or the more recent prequel trilogy. And if that person has gone this long without seeing any of those movies, they likely don’t have about 13 hours to spend watching them over the next two weeks before The Force Awakens hits theaters....

VOTD: This Cosplay Music Video Is Like The Taylor Swift “Bad Blood” Of NYCC By Ethan Anderton/Oct. 16, 2015 4:00 am EST New York Comic Con has come and gone, and while there wasn’t any particularly huge news to come out of the convention, there was still plenty of cool stuff to see. Some Pepsi Perfect bottles were handed out to Marty McFly cosplayers, but there were plenty more dressed up fans as a new music video illustrates....

Warner Bros. Sets Animated ‘Scooby-Doo’ Movie For 2018, More Hanna-Barbera Movies Coming? By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 17, 2015 1:00 pm EST The animated Scooby-Doo reboot feature will be an animated film from the Warner Animation Group banner, which had quite a big debut with The LEGO Movie, and they’ve brought in some promising talent with a history bringing Scooby-Doo to life in animated form. The Wrap reports Tony Cervone will be directing the animated movie, and that’s someone Scooby-Doo fans should be well-acquainted with because he worked on the 2010 incarnation of the show, Scooby-Doo!...

Watch The Trailer For ‘The Hobbit’ Trilogy Extended Edition, Hitting Theaters In October By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 26, 2015 12:00 pm EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Earlier this month, we learned Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy would be returning to theaters in October, but it would be the extended edition of each film on the big screen this time, marking the first time the longer editions of the film have played in theaters....

‘24’ Reboot Announced: African-American Or Latino Lead To Replace Jack Bauer By Fred Topel/Jan. 15, 2016 10:50 am EST “We’re ordering a pilot set in the world of 24,” Walden said. “We’ve thought about doing a sequel to this for a long time. After the final event series, we saw the real time format could work in a 12-hour format. Evan Katz and Manny Coto had a fantastic idea for a reboot....

‘Colonia’ Trailer: Emma Watson Infiltrates An Evil Cult By Angie Han/Sept. 14, 2015 12:00 pm EST The situation looks dire for Daniel Brühl in the first trailer for Colonia, which sees his character abducted by General Augusto Pinochet’s secret police in 1973 Chile and sent into a sinister cult called the Colonia Dignidad. Fortunately, he just so happens to be dating a woman played by Emma Watson, and we all know Watson’s not one to give up in the face of evil....

‘MacGyver’ TV Reboot Developing At CBS; James Wan To Direct By Angie Han/Oct. 2, 2015 4:00 pm EST Way back in 2012, we reported that James Wan was working on a new big-screen feature about MacGyver. The movie never actually came to pass, obviously, but now Wan will get to tackle the resourceful hero from a different angle. CBS has put into development a MacGyver television series, with Wan set to direct the pilot....

Me and Earl and the Dying Girl Trailer You can read our review of the film at this link, which I recommend, because it’ll put into context why we loved this movie. It won the top two prizes at Sundance this year, which Oscar-winner Whiplash did the year before, but this trailer struggles to show why this movie is so great. That’s not the trailer’s fault though. It’s a kind of crazy, beautiful movie that works much better as a whole than it does in a two minute trailer....

‘Moana’ Teaser Trailer: Disney’s South Pacific Princess Sets Sail With A Charismatic Demi-God By Ethan Anderton/June 12, 2016 7:29 pm EST This fall, Disney adds another princess to their roster of female characters with Moana. However, rather than having another princess who needs saving by a handsome, Disney is continuing their increased dedication to creating strong female characters for little girls to look up to while also delivering some diversity with their first South Pacific princess, voiced by newcomer Auli’i Cravalho....

‘Moonfall’ Is Roland Emmerich’s Next Movie, Somehow Not A James Bond Parody By Ethan Anderton/June 24, 2016 1:00 pm EST Universal Pictures has just thrown down seven figures for Moonfall, a sci-fi spec script that Emmerich wrote with Harald Kloser (writer, producer and composer for his disaster flick 2012) and Spencer Cohen (who wrote the developing Extinction for Good Universe and Mandeville).
