Batman V Superman Zack Snyder Explains How Robin Fits Into Batman S Backstory

‘Batman V Superman’: Zack Snyder Explains How Robin Fits Into Batman’s Backstory By Jack Giroux/March 31, 2016 3:30 pm EST Ben Affleck proved to be an excellent Bruce Wayne. Even some of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’s harshest critics admitted the actor was suited for the role. We got an angrier, more vulnerable and more damaged Bruce Wayne. As depicted in the film, this version of Bruce Wayne has plenty to be angry about....

Freaks Of Nature Red Band Trailer Vampires And Zombies And Aliens Oh My

‘Freaks Of Nature’ Red-Band Trailer: Vampires And Zombies And Aliens, Oh My! By Angie Han/Oct. 16, 2015 1:30 pm EST Several years ago we reported on a Black List script by Oren Uziel called The Kitchen Sink, a horror-sci-fi-comedy mashup that combined vampires, zombies, and aliens. Jonah Hill was originally set to direct, and then Robbie Pickering. A promising cast (including Bob Odenkirk and Patton Oswalt) was assembled, and then the updates slowed down and eventually the project fell off our radar completely....

‘Furious 7’ Super Bowl Commercial Proves Cars Can Fly By Germain Lussier/Feb. 1, 2015 4:17 pm EST When you think “movies” and “Super Bowl commercials,” in recent years that meant one thing: The Fast and the Furious. The sixth film had a huge Super Bowl spot in 2013 and in 2015, the gang is back. The Furious 7 Super Bowl commercial is now online. And it’s EPIC. Directed by James Wan, the film stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Elsa Pataky, Lucase Black and Jason Statham....

Mistress America Trailer Noah Baumbach S Hilarious New Film With Greta Gerwig

Mistress America trailer Here’s a poster too, via Playlist You can read the rest of my review here but suffice to say, Mistress America is one of those crazy comedies that would have been more comfortable released in the 1970s than 2015. The comedy is smart, the situations are completely unhinged and the performances at every level pop with reality and energy. It’s a really good film and it opens August 14....

Suffragette Trailer Meryl Streep And Carey Mulligan Fight For Women

‘Suffragette’ Trailer: Meryl Streep And Carey Mulligan Fight For Women By Angie Han/April 15, 2015 7:30 am EST It’s easy to take for granted the right to vote when you don’t remember ever not having it. In truth, women won that right less than a century ago in the U.S. and the U.K. And though the victory feels inevitable in retrospect, it was a painful struggle at the time. In the first Suffragette trailer, Carey Mulligan plays a foot soldier of the movement — a young wife and mother who’s decided to fight for herself and women like her....

The Wave Trailer A Disaster Movie Not Directed By Roland Emmerich

By Jack Giroux/Jan. 19, 2016 2:30 pm EST After the jump, watch The Wave trailer. I saw The Wave at last year’s Fantastic Fest. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed by Uthaug’s picture. It’s an admirable film, in that it doesn’t try to make the event “fun,” but it still hits a lot of the calculated structural and emotional beats we expect from a disaster movie. The Wave is kind of like most of these movies we’ve seen lately, except it goes for a more serious and honest tone....

Zoolander 2 Is As Stupid And Out Of Touch As Derek Zoolander Himself

‘Zoolander 2’ Is As Stupid And Out Of Touch As Derek Zoolander Himself By Angie Han/Feb. 11, 2016 7:00 am EST But if those titles are evidence that Hollywood’s obsession with existing IP can yield excellent results, Zoolander 2 represents the worst-case scenario. Not because Zoolander 2 is the worst movie ever made — it isn’t — but because it’s what we fear every time one of these projects gets announced: a joyless cash-grab more interested in rehashing old ideas than building on them....

But while the promo did a fine job of conveying the dark humor and gritty feel of the supervillain film, it didn’t offer a whole lot in the way of plot....
