‘Imperial Dreams’ Trailer: The Sundance Movie John Boyega Made Before ‘The Force Awakens’ By Ethan Anderton/Jan. 21, 2016 8:30 am EST It’s been two years since the indie drama Imperial Dreams debuted at the Sundance Film Festival, and that was just before star John Boyega landed what will likely be the biggest role of his career in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Sadly, the film, which isn’t about Finn having dreams of joining the Empire, still doesn’t have distribution despite the fact that it’s deserving of an audience....

You liked it when you were a kid and remain fond of it now because nostalgia is nice and comforting, but let’s not pretend it is anything worthy of adoration in 2016....

‘Riley’s First Date?’ Is Pixar’s First ‘Inside Out’ Short [Updated With New Images] By Russ Fischer/Aug. 14, 2015 2:15 pm EST Pixar’s film Inside Out is all about (spoiler) reconciling the seeming conflict between Joy and Sadness. So, for the first short film starring the Inside Out characters, it makes sense to focus on the early dating life of the now 12-year old Riley, because Joy and Sadness will really get a workout as she starts to date....

‘The Nice Guys’ First Look: Get Ready To Love These Guys By Jack Giroux/Dec. 2, 2015 3:00 pm EST If you don’t live in an insane asylum, then you probably love Shane Black’s directorial debut, Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. The screenwriter behind Lethal Weapon, The Long Kiss Goodnight, and The Last Boy Scout made a clever, hilarious, and character-driven mystery with his first outing behind the camera. The film didn’t make a ton of money at the box-office, but there’s a lot of love out there for it....

‘TRON RUN/r’ Video Game Lets You ‘Temple Run’ Your Way Through The Grid By Jacob Hall/Feb. 1, 2016 3:00 pm EST Almost a year ago, it was revealed that Disney was secretly working on a Tron video game and imaginations got fired up. Between this video game, Tron characters joining Disney Infinity, the new Tron Lightcycle Power Run ride at Shanghai Disneyland, and the hazy existence of Tron 3 on the horizon, it was a good time to be a fan of this fascinating, but wounded film series....

Before Soldado even begins filming, Sollima and all involved are already considering a Sicario 3, which, if it happens, would round out a trilogy of standalone films. Below, learn more about Soldado and Sicario 3....

Alicia Vikander Joins Tom Hanks In James Ponsoldt’s ‘Circle’ By Angie Han/May 11, 2015 1:45 pm EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. The Circle has been in development since December, when Hanks signed on to co-star and produce through his Playtone banner. Also on board as producers are Anthony Bregman (Foxcatcher), Walter Parkes and Laurie MacDonald (Flight), and Hanks’ Playtone partner Gary Goetzman. The premise sounds every bit as chilling and relevant as Ex Machina did, though it approaches our fears about the future from an entirely different angle....

Check Out These ‘Alien’ Posters Celebrating The Film’s 35th Anniversary By Germain Lussier/Dec. 19, 2014 5:00 am EST 2014 is coming to a close, which means there are only a few more days left in the 35th anniversary of Ridley Scott’s Alien. We recently pronounced the sci-fi masterpiece the director’s best film and there weren’t many arguments about that. Not only did the film create a star and a franchise, it set the standard for what sci-fi horror could be....

Don’t Expect ‘The Flash’ Movie To Be Dark And Gritty By Jack Giroux/March 18, 2016 5:00 am EST Shortly after the massive success of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, Warner Bros. wanted to take the DC universe in a more grounded, possibly darker direction. Not all fans were pleased by the decision, but thankfully this is now old news. No, not all DC Comics movies will be filled with brooding and glowering....

Following a handful of new stills this weekend, Warcraft has just revealed a splashy new poster, as well as details on the imminent trailer release....

HBO Says A Rushed Schedule Is What Hurt ‘True Detective’ Season Two By Jack Giroux/Jan. 6, 2016 12:00 pm EST Who’s to blame for True Detective season two? That’s not a question I’m asking, since I genuinely enjoyed this past season, but a lot of fan expectations were not met following the terrific first outing, starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson. HBO president of programming, Michael Lombardo, wouldn’t call the series’ sophomore effort a failure, but he does take responsibility for rushing the latest season....
