James McTeigue (V for Vendetta, Ninja Assassin) is currently at Comic-Con in San Diego, drumming up support for his latest thriller The Raven, the poster for which we brought you only yesterday.

Last year Megamind was one of the films changed my mind during its hour long comic-con panel. ”Fright Night” had a little bit of that wonder at today’s panel. I don’t [...]
It’s interesting that I’m writing this panel up for HeyUGuys as it seems that the story of Tintin is much better known in Europe. North America is pretty much in the dark when it comes to these tales. However, it helps the cause when you have a movie being made by the likes of Steven [...]
