Yep, the franchise will never die (pun intended).
I must admit, i quite enjoyed A Good Day To Die Hard. It's not a great film, but it was fun (and that was all i was expecting). So news of another sequel is interesting.
Now thanks to Total Film we have a title, a writer and a sort of synopsis.
There has been a lot of controversy surrounding the upcoming remake/reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Michael Bay is at the helm with Jonathan Liebesman as the Director and stars Megan Fox as April O'Neil, Alan Ritchson as Raphael, Jeremy Howard as Donatello, Pete Ploszek as Leonardo, Noel Fisher as Michelangelo, Will Arnett in an unspecified role, and Danny Woodburn as Master Splinter.
Bay is hoping to put to bed a lot of the criticism including the fact that they are supposedly now aliens instead of mutants. Have a read
This is great news and very well deserved. Walt Disney Pictures have announced this morning that Iron Man 3 has only just rolled out to 79% of the international market and yet already taken in an estimated $US195.3 million. And that does not even count Russia, China or Germany (let alone the US release). This reaffirms my prediction that this will effortlessly pass $1 billion worldwide...watch and see.
The movie is fantastic! Me and MiniGeek thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it (and i am going again in a couple of days).
Here is the breakdown in more detail including some pretty impressive records:
Wow, this came a little left field, Don Cheadle (you know, War Machine/Iron Patriot from Iron Man 2 and 3) was a guest on the Empire Magazine pdocast and was asked about the possibility of a War Machine spinoff movie.
Surprisingly, Don had quite a bit to say about it and where they may go with a spinoff movie.....sounds awesome!
I loved the movie Red and judging by this trailer for the upcoming sequel, i will love this too.
The movie is directed by Dean Parisot, and it stars Bruce Willis, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Anthony Hopkins, Byung Hun Lee, Mary-Louise Parker, Brian Cox, and Neal McDonough.
Check out the trailer, Anthony Hopkins looks hilarious in it.
I never thought i would say this about a Superman movie, but i am so psyched to see Man of Steel....I mean i actually can't wait!
Now legendary director Zack Snyder gives some updates on Henry Cavill's performance, Superman fighting and the new look Krypton.
I dare you to read them and not be excited! lol
New Zealand writer/director Andrew Adamson has done it again, judging by the trailer for his new film Mr Pip (starring Hugh Laurie), this could be a really good film.
After getting bored of House and remembering Hugh Laurie for his better roles in Black Adder and A Bit of Fry and Laurie, I keep forgetting how good an actor he is, the man has some serious acting chops!
Have a look at the trailer and let me know what you think
I love quirky films and the latest from Pineapple Express director David Gordon Green looks really quirky.
It stars one of my favs Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch and the movie premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival to some pretty good reviews
Have a look at the trailer and let me know what you think
Thanks to Yahoo! we have some cool teaser info from Joss Whedon himself about Avengers 2 including a surprise tease about some new characters.
See if you can guess the two new characters he is talking about
This is interesting, did you know that in Japan, The Wolverine is called Wolverine: Samurai? No? Neither did I lol
Anyway, here is a new trailer featuring some new footage.
I know there is some apprehension about the film, but i have to say, i am quite excited about it, i do think it is going to be an excellent film (fingers crossed)
Check it out and let me know what you think
Oh Yeah!! The first and highly anticipated trailer for Thor: The Dark World is here and damn it looks good! The only bummer is that we need to wait until November to see the movie.
I am not going to go into much detail describing it as i want you to experience it yourself, so watch and enjoy.
Keanu Reeves has been visiting the Beijing International Film Festival and has finally revealed the trailer for his directorial debut Man of Tai Chi.
Keanu reunites with his martial arts trainer for the Matrix Tiger Hu Chen as well as Yuen Woo-ping
Have a look and let me know what you think
Sigh, everytime we here more news on Relativity Media's reboot of fan favourite "The Crow" the news changes five minutes later.
Let's hope this time the news is solid. So far every man and dog seems to have been up for the role of Eric Draven aka The Crow. We have had Bradley Cooper, Mark Wahlberg, James McAvoy, hell even MiniGeek said he was up for the role (although thinking about it, he may have been kidding lol).
Now it seems we have a new contender
Only 3 more days till me and MiniGeek get to see Iron Man 3 (seriously, the two of us are so excited, we keep giggling).
Marvel have kindly given us a little more to look at to keep that giggling and excitement up
Enjoy
Not long until we get to see the glory that is Star Trek: Into Darkness on the big screen (May 9 in New Zealand).
Here is another TV Spot to keep the excitement levels peaked (with new footage), enjoy
Zoinks, Gore Verbinski's adaptation of the Lone Ranger with Arnie Hammer and Johnny Depp is starting to look like it should be a fun film.
I really like the over the top feel of the film and both Hammer and Depp seem to suit their roles well.
I guess we will find out on July 4th :)
Have a look and let me know what you think
I have been waiting ever so patiently for this and i am not disappointed :)
The first trailer for R.I.P.D. staring Ryan Reynolds and Jeff Bridges is out and it looks freakin cool!!
Unfortunately we have to wait until July for the film. Check it out, what do you think?
