July 29th Casting Update With Taylor Lautner being ruled out as the heir to the Wolverine throne, Twi-hards have had little to get excited about regarding the latest installment in the X-Men franchise. It looks like this apathy towards Xavier’s school for the gifted is about to end because [deadline] is saying that Edi Gathegi [...]

We haven’t seen much of Zack Snyder’s new movie, Sucker Punch, but we definitely wanted to. How can you resist a movie that the writer/director describes as “Alice in Wonderland with machine guns”? Thankfully, we’ve just been given new posters depicting each of the characters. If a movie about escaping a mental institution via an [...]

There’s more news from Comic-Con and it’s…another reboot. Seriously, I’m starting to miss sequels. Anyway, Guillermo del Toro announced at a Disney event that he will be writing, producing, and possibly directing a 3D movie adaptation of The Haunted Mansion. Yup, like the one with Eddie Murphy that no one liked. Del Toro claims that [...]

Brad Pitt has taken on assassins, Trojans, and Nazis during his career as an actor, but now he’s going to be facing a new enemy: zombies. According to writer Max Brooks, Pitt is officially starring in the film adaptation of World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War. Plan B Entertainment (Pitt’s production [...]

Comic book adaptations are the trend in Hollywood these days, with Scott Pilgrim vs. The World coming out in August and slew of superhero movies slated for the next few years. Now a new adaptation is on the horizon, with a director comic fans can get behind. Sam Raimi, director of the Evil Dead and [...]

I’ve heard a lot of talk lately about how Hollywood has become obsessed with the sequel. With under-performing films like Ghost Rider and Wanted being pursued for potential follow-ups, many movie-goers and even comic book fans have been left scratching their heads, asking themselves the all-important question, “WTF?”. But for action films with a built-in [...]

Nicolas Cage is going to be getting back on his demonic motorcycle. Although 2007’s Ghost Rider was almost universally panned, the film made enough money to get a sequel in today’s sequel-hungry environment. In an interview with Craig Ferguson, Cage confirmed that he is going to portray Johnny Blaze once again. Cage also said that [...]

Green Lantern fans, we have a costume! Although we’ve known for over a year that Ryan Reynolds (who played Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine) would be portraying Hal Jordan on the silver screen, we still haven’t gotten to see him in action. While we still don’t have a trailer, now we at least know what [...]

Just as the casting drama behind the Spider-Man reboot calmed down, we have a whole new reason for our inner geeks to start freaking out. Rumors are emerging that the new Superman film, scheduled with a tentative Christmas 2012 release, has begun the process of casting! Superman is a notoriously difficult character to portray on [...]

Inception is crazy. The movie hasn’t even been released yet and people are already calling it the best movie of the summer, if not the best movie of the year. The few lucky critics that have seen it already almost universally praised it, with only five critics on rottentomatoes.com disliking the film. The public can [...]

For weeks it has been rumored that Academy Award winning actor Tommy Lee Jones would be portraying Colonel Chester Phillips in the upcoming film Captain America: The First Avenger. In a very unsurprising turn of events, Marvel has confirmed Jones’ role as Colonel Phillips. In case there are any DC Comics fans reading this, Colonel [...]

Katsuhiro Ôtomo’s 1988 anime Akira is a film that is difficult to describe without using the word “classic”. The movie dealt with mature post-a-bomb themes that were omnipresent in Japanese culture but had yet to find a mainstream audience. So imagine our surprise/overwhelming joy when we learned that a remake had been scheduled for a [...]

The first pics from the set of Transformers 3 were released this week, and we can’t say that we are really surprised. Guns? check. Shia Labeouf getting with some super dope model who is way out of his league? Check. These are also the first pics of Megan Fox’s replacement, Victoria’s Secret model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. [...]
