Digitally Remastered Ghostbusters Returning to UK Cinemas

Ghostbusters

It seems to be the way things are going now but to be honest, I can’t really blame the studios for re-releasing classic movies back into cinemas. After seeing Back to the Future earlier in the year, and it becoming one of my all-time best cinematic experiences, I am well up for them putting movies [...]

Interview with John Landis, Director of The Blues Brothers

Created by AccuSoft Corp.

“We got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark and we’re wearing sunglasses….Hit it!!!” That immortal line was one of the many attributes which helped The Blue Brothers attain the status of cult classic before such a term was commonly discussed and debated about. It’s also a film whose iconic [...]

Dan Aykroyd Says Ghostbusters 3 Will Shoot Early 2012 With Or Without Bill Murray

Ghostbusters

Who you gonna call? Maybe Bill Murray, maybe not. Bloody Disgusting report that Dan Aykroyd, the man so awesome he’s had a band named in his honour (Dananananaykroyd), has said that Ghostbusters III will be going into production in early 2012, with or without Bill Murray. His hope is of course that Murray will be [...]

Dan Aykroyd joins Jim Belushi on “The Defenders”

James Belushi

Okay, so this isn’t really film news, but I have a lot of love for both of these guys. Aykroyd has Ghostbusters, Trading Places, Blues Brothers, Grosse Pointe Blank and Dragnet on his CV, with Jim Belushi offering up Red Heat, The Man With One Red Shoe and K-9 (okay, not quite as impressive a [...]

Yet Another Yogi Bear Poster

Yogi Bear Poster 3

Two days after Dave posted the third (yes, third) trailer for the 3D/CG Yogi Bear comes this new poster and the marketing arm of Warner Bros. have wisely not repeated the so-obvious-it-can’t-be-a-mistake-can-it? double entendre of this poster. This latest poster visually assaults you with its promise of hyper kinetic fun, though I still have no [...]

Third Trailer Released for Yogi Bear

The first two trailers (1st here, 2nd here) looked pretty poor and I’m afraid the third doesn’t look too great either. It a world where CGI can be so fantastic, it really looks like this has been done on some-one’s home computer. And what the heck is going on with the voices? Surely they should [...]

Ghostbusters 3 to Start Shooting in May 2011?!

Ghostbusters 3

Okay, so this is the very slenderest of sources, but Production Weekly’s Twitter feed is reporting sources from Sony Pictures that Ghostbusters 3 is due to go into production in May of next year. The ups and downs of a new Ghostbusters film have been well documented, including Bill Murray’s concerns about the screenwriters who [...]

Dan Aykroyd was recently interviewed by Vanity Fair while on a promotional tour across Canada and the USA for Crystal Head Vodka. They chatted about vodka, Yogi Bear, Justin Timberlake (who voices BooBoo alongside Aykroyd’s Yogi in the upcoming film) and Ghostbusters 3. Bill Murray had some fairly negative comments to make about a developing [...]

New Yogi Bear 3D Trailer

If the first trailer did nothing for you, and the weird poster didn’t convince you to book time off in February 2011 for the sadly inevitable 3D CG/live action whirligig of a Yogi Bear movie then this trailer will do nothing to change that. There’s slapstick, food fights, pick-a-nic baskets and much mugging from Tom [...]

Three New Character Banners for Yogi Bear

Yogi Bear - Booboo

A few new character banner posters for Yogi Bear have been released on the official Warner Bros. website.  A trailer came out a week or two ago for the classic cartoon which has been turned into a movie but unfortunately it looks pretty terrible – or is it just me? Yogi Bear is directed by [...]
