With little over a month to go until this year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival (EIFF) kicks off in earnest, and the programme launch now just weeks away, it seemed a little odd that prospective audiences still had no idea what might open the 2013 festival. However, we now have an opening film to go with [...]
Having already worked to adapt last year’s release schedule for the big screen — you can thank me when you run out of board games, Hollywood — I thought I’d try to do the same with 2012. After all, we’re all about franchises here, particularly those with some semblance of name recognition. If 2012 were [...]
Despite having writing commitments to just about every major studio in Hollywood (including a Chronicle sequel for 20th Century Fox and a top secret gig at Disney), Max Landis has now signed to make his directorial début with Big Beach Films. Titled Me Him Her, the film is set to explore themes of sexual identity between its [...]
No doubt once again hoping to cash-in on the immense good will generated by the London Olympics — having previously preceded the games with its theatrical release back in June — Regan Hall’s Fast Girls this week lands on DVD and Blu-ray. But does it still stand up now that the endorphins have worn off and the Olympians have [...]
In its never-ending search for recyclable ideas with pre-existing brand recognition, however marginal it might be, Hollywood has finally arrived upon The Brave Little Toaster. Presumably while cleaning out its garage. Originally published by author Thomas M Disch as a children’s series of books starting in 1980, The Brave Little Toaster follows a fivesome of furnishings — [...]
Despite lobbying hard for a 2D release, with the director fearing the 3D format’s much-maligned miniaturization effect, it seems Guilermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim is indeed getting the stereoscopic treatment after all. But, while we could sound the Kermode and launch into a pre-empted tirade about how 3D is ruining cinema, that the vision of [...]
Earlier this week, Joss Whedon spoke of his trust in James Gunn do deliver a Guardians of the Galaxy movie that was both “twisted” and off the wall. He has since spoken up again, giving 24 Hours a few hints as to the flavour of his own film, The Avengers 2. “The creation of the [...]
If you raised an eyebrow at Marvel’s announcement of a Guardians of the Galaxy movie, which seemed to have been green-lit in the place of the more anticipated likes of Doctor Strange and Black Panther, then don’t worry, it seems that you weren’t alone. Whilst at the Toronto International Film Festival promoting his own take on [...]
While we had some idea what DreamWorks Animation’s upcoming slate might look like (we knew, for example, that there were two How To Train Your Dragon sequels on the way and a Seth Rogen vehicle initially titled Boo-U), it’s safe to say that no-one was quite prepared for yesterday’s announcement. Having recently sold their domestic [...]
With Josh Boone having just this weekend unveiled his first feature film, Writers, at the Toronto International Film Festival, The Playlist have published two new images from the project. Writers stars Greg Kinnear as a successful author whose family — and casual hook-up Kristen Bell — is plagued by unresolved feelings towards his ex-wife, played by Jennifer [...]
Ditched in a cloud of dirt on the doorstep of the Sisters of Mercy Orphanage, Moe (Chris Diamantopoulos), Larry (Sean Hayes) and Curly (Will Sasso) spend the next thirty-odd years terrorising Mother Superior (Jane Lynch) and her resident nuns with their goofball antics and dim-witted shenanigans. When a three decades-long spate of injuries render the establishment [...]
Having clearly run out of provocative poses for Milla Jovovich’s Alice to pull in front of ruined cityscapes, Screen Gems have turned their attention – and multi-million dollar promotional campaign – towards the film’s other returning players. With character banners focusing on Oded Fehr’s Carlos Olivera, Michelle Rodriguez’s Rain Ocampo, Li Binging ‘s Ada Wong [...]
Having just arrived the night before, co-director Mark Andrews and producer Katherine Sarafian were on the final leg of their press commitments after showing their new film, Pixar’s Brave, off to receptive audiences in France, Italy, Japan and Canada. In production since 2004, when the idea was first pitched by original director Brenda Chapman, the [...]
Yesterday, as part of the Edinburgh International Book Festival, author Cressida Cowell conducted a Q&A to promote the latest instalment of her How To Train Your Dragon series of books. Following a special screening of DreamWorks’ superb adaptation, however, talk inevitably turned to the future of the cinematic sister series. As DreamWorks’ second most successful [...]
Back in June, as the 66th Edinburgh International Film Festival was coming to a close, HeyUGuys sat down with two of the stars of the festival’s highly anticipated closing film, Pixar’s Brave. In a quiet conference room on the second floor of Edinburgh’s grand Balmoral Hotel, Robbie Coltrane and Kevin McKidd – who play Lord [...]
Holding himself responsible for his band-mate brother’s untimely death, Lachlan MacAldonich (Robert Carlyle) hasn’t been back to Britain since for fear of finally facing his friends and family. Lachlan’s life in California – split between his work as a farmhand and a podcast he runs commemorating fallen stars – is put on the line, however, when a [...]
As festival-goers everywhere race to publish their various ‘Best of the Fest’ lists and reviews, readers will do doubt notice a trend beginning to emerge as the majority of these articles make considerable room for Miguel Gomes’ Portuguese epic, Tabu. Mine, perhaps controversially, most definitely will not. Spread over two parts, the first, “Paradise Lost”, follows the [...]
With a mysteriously immobile tanker looming in the bay and a school of bloodied pilot whales banked on the beach, Garda Ciarán O’Shea (Richard Coyle) is naturally more concerned with the arrival of pedantic substitute officer Lisa Nolan (Ruth Bradley). As they navigate their first few days on the job together – quickly reaching loggerheads over O’Shea’s [...]
Caught masturbating during biology class, Romain (Mathias Melloul)’s suspension from school inadvertently sparks a new age of sexual openness in his family life. When mother Claire (Valérie Maës) resolves to take a greater interest in the sex lives of her children: adopted daughter Marie (Leïla Denio), eldest son Pierre (Nathan Duval) and reluctant virgin Romain, along with [...]
A Canadian/Danish co-production, Eddie – The Sleepwalking Cannibal tells the story of Lars (Thure Lindhardt), a one-time painting protégée who has just taken a teaching post at a struggling art school in remote Koda Lake. Once there, Lars falls for the school’s resident sculptress (Georgina Reilly) and befriends disabled student Eddie (Dylan Smith), offering to take the latter [...]
