Unpredictably co-directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who brought us Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, the film adaptation of the 1980s hit TV show 21 Jump Street has been receiving great reviews on its early preview screenings, and it looks like we’ve got a great action comedy in store for us in a [...]
We got the first two red and green band trailers for the upcoming 21 Jump Street film adaptation back in November, and they looked so great. Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill look to have such great comedy chemistry in this, bouncing off each other perfectly, which is naturally a good thing in an action comedy [...]
For Rampart, writer-director Oren Moverman has reteamed with Woody Harrelson and Ben Foster, the stars of his Oscar-nominated debut, The Messenger, and he’s made what I think is the best cop crime drama since L.A. Confidential. I got to see the film at its UK premiere at the BFI London Film Festival back in October, [...]
Oscar-nominated writer-director Oren Moverman’s return to the director’s chair for his second film, Rampart, is absolutely brilliant. I was lucky enough to catch the film at the London Film Festival back in October and thought it was utterly flawless. The film sees Moverman collaborating once more with the stars of his first film, The Messenger, [...]
We got our first look at the upcoming remake of the ’80s TV series, 21 Jump Street, back in May this year, showing us Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum in their cop uniforms, with Jonah Hill looking a lot slimmer than we’re used to seeing him. The film’s first red and green band trailers have [...]
Back in May, we got the terrific first look at Woody Harrelson in his next upcoming film, Rampart, along with the official full synopsis, and right from the get-go it looked and sounded brilliant. Earlier this month, we then got the first three clips from the film, just after it had its world premiere at [...]
This is a film that I truly cannot wait for. Directed and co-written by Oren Moverman (The Messenger), and co-written by the celebrated US crime novelist James Ellroy (L.A. Confidential), the film has just had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. Moverman first started making a name for himself back in 2007 [...]
Anchor Bay have released the first trailer for their new movie, Tanner Hall which is directed by Francesca Gregorini, Tatiana von Furstenberg and stars Rooney Mara, Georgia King and Brie Larson. The odd thing with this one is that the movie was actually made back in 2009. More than likely, it’s getting it’s release as [...]
The Playlist has got three great new images and the first full synopsis from the upcoming L.A. cop drama, Rampart, starring Woody Harrelson in the lead role. The film is to be directed by Oren Moverman (The Messenger), and has been scripted by Moverman and the brilliant novelist, essayist, and screenplay writer James Ellroy (Street [...]
ComingSoon has announced that Johnny Depp has been confirmed for a cameo in the upcoming film adaptation of the ’80s TV show 21 Jump Street, in which Depp was one of the principals for four of the show’s five seasons. He’s since gone on to have a modestly successful career in movies, starring in one [...]
Here’s a fun post for the evening. It comes from HeroChan.com via a tweet from @GreatWhiteSnark. It’s an animation showing all of the Evil Exes from Scott Pilgrim vs. the World mixed with their original characters from the graphic novel. I thought you might rather like it…. cos I do! Not much else to say [...]
With the UK premiere of Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World tonight there’s never been a better time to delve deeper into this film, and there’s a nice behind the scenes video which has just been released. Focusing on the sound design this video from Soundworks Collection (via Collider) intersperses the widely seen trailer [...]
We’re trying out a new format for our Scott Pilgrim review. In honour of most of the characters in the film going head-to-head, toe-to-toe, mano-a-mano, we’re having a bit of a review battle. In the red corner, we have self-confessed Scott Pilgrim-fanatic, Ben Mortimer, a man who has read the comics (several times), and who [...]
The Edgar Wright directed adaptation of the Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World graphic novel series hits theatres this week, to a huge wave of anticipation from the Internet movie community. The comic series in question has achieved huge cult acclaim, as has helmer Wright thanks to his work with Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. When [...]
If you’re familiar with Scott Pilgrim you’ll know that Ramona has seven evil exes and one of these is Hollywood star Lucas Lee, played by real life Hollywood star Chris Evans in Edgar Wright’s forthcoming Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. In the original Scott Pilgrim comics there are glimpse of some of Lucas Lee’s cinematic [...]
Another impressive piece of marketing for Edgar Wright’s anticipated Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, and it’s one of the finest examples of the interactive trailer I’ve seen so far. Dolled up in its 8-bit glory, this new trailer offers the viewer the chance to hear from Edgar Wright as the trailer plays, giving his usual [...]
I’m going to keep this brief, but suffice to say that some of you have already seen Edgar Wright’s Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World. That’s a fact which makes me jealous, but I’m not begrudging anyone having seen this – it looks like a wonderful mixture of anarchy and 8-bit charm and these pics, released [...]
I am worried Universal Pictures and in turn, director of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World Edgar Wright, are in danger of giving away the entire movie in clip form for their new movie. Scott Pilgrim is released in the UK 25th August and stars Matthew Patel (Satya Bhabha), Lucas Lee (Chris Evans), Todd Ingram (Brandon [...]
Comic Con has proved a perfect ending point for all the Scott Pilgrim Pilgrims with director Edgar Wright unexpectedly playing the film to the collected fans, and early word reviews are peppered with hyperbole and acclaim. Those of us not at Comic Con won’t get to see it until the end of August but there’s [...]
