Seriously, I’m half expecting a call from Marvel inviting me and my dog* to audition for the lead role in the forthcoming Joe Johnston directed Captain America. Two reports came out in the last day or two, one from Deadline Hollywood revealing that G.I. Joe himself Channing Tatum has been contacted in connection with the [...]
Audiophiles rejoice, for today it was announced that the mighty Pixar/Disney are to team with Dolby Laboratories to create a new audio experience to tie in with the blockbusting Toy Story 3, due out in cinemas in June.

This piece of news is not a huge surprise for those following the movement of the new Muppet movie from the page to the screen, as Jason Segel, the man revealed today by THR to be the human lead in the film, wrote the script with Nicholas Stoller. The last time I checked this film [...]
I wake up this morning to find these lovely new behind the scenes images that Disney have released for their movie which is out December 17th called Tron Legacy. As regular readers to the site will know, we’ve been going rather Tron mad over the pst few weeks and I have a feeling it wont [...]
Well, we’ve all seen the movie (haven’t we?!), in fact I’ve now seen it three times at the cinema. Saying that, it was over the course of three months so it’s not as bad as it sounds! Is it?! Before we know it, the best selling movie of all time that is James Cameron’s Avatar [...]

Today Brandon has posted a Star Wars poster with a fantastic design based on the Death Star slowly turning. The full poster is embedded below. What do you think? More of Brandon’s work can be found here.
The success of Avatar and Alice in Wonderland has done much to allow the roots of the new 3D cinema movement to flourish and his work on developing the technology has elevated James Cameron to the forefront of this movement. Now that Alice has superseded Avatar on the nation’s 3D screens, and with an announcement [...]
Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland has proved a profitable successor to Avatar in 3D cinemas around the world, and it’s fair to say that these films have proved to be many people’s first foray into the new world of 3D in cinemas. Each of the major new enhancements to the medium of film have been [...]
After seeing the gritty but flawed British film ‘The Scouting Book for Boys’, Reviewed here, I was looking forward to witnessing another British film in ‘My Last Five Girlfriends’ and hoped for another example of what British Cinema has to offer. Unfortunately it turned out to be a flat, underwhelming Rom-Com but something that would [...]
One day, the train that is Twilight will stop but for the time being, momentum for the vampire / werewolf movie shows no signs of slowing down! The new trailer for Twilight: Eclipse was released last week and in the wake of that, MTV have released three new clips from the DVD extras for Twilight: [...]
I’ve seen Office Space loads of times. I may even go as far as to say that it’s one of my favourite comedy movies of all time. I know a lot of people out there think it’s rubbish but just so we’re clear, you’re all wrong! It’s a work of genius! Mike Judge directed the [...]
We learned today from The NY Times that Peter Graves, known to us best as Captain Oveur in 1980′s Airplane, has died at the age of 83.

As we enter the eighth week of the IMDb250 Project it’s becoming clear that the experience has completely changed our tastes, our appreciation and our knowledge of movies and movie making in general after only 20 films viewed each so far, that is something truly incredible for us personally and a real positive for attempting [...]
There are few people in the entertainment industry with the sway and remit of Neil Stiles and, at a time when the evolution of the publishing industry is at a crucial point, fewer still who stand a closer watch over this time of change. Neil began his career working for the NME, and is currently [...]
The Scouting Book for Boys is a solid Directorial debut film from Tom Harper and showcases what the wonderful British film industry is willing to support get made. Starring the excellent young talents of Thomas Turgoose of This is England fame and Holly Grainger who starred in the TV series Demons and Waterloo Road, these [...]
It’s a tricky time to be making American Horror films right now. Watching the woeful ‘Horror tribute’ at the recent Academy Awards was a sobering reminder of how often this genre is badly treated and misunderstood by the industry that makes so much money out of it’s loyal fans. Release schedules are packed with endless [...]
Shutter Island is released in the UK this weekend. I’m looking forward to seeing it but, unfortunately, i know what happens at the end. It’s my own fault, i accept that. I ignored a spoiler warning, and paid the price. But if all movies had simultaneous worldwide release, it wouldn’t have been an issue. It’s not [...]
