I’m in the hot seat today getting ready to live blog the War Horse UK press conference. Those expected to attend include Director Steven Spielberg, Producer Kathy Kennedy, and cast members Michael Morpurgo, Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch and David Thewlis. I have my laptop here ready to go and all you [...]
This evening, London Town was the host for the Royal UK Premiere of Steven Spielberg’s new movie, War Horse. What made it even more special was that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (or William and Kate to their friends) were in attendance. Joining them was the legendary director himself accompanied by the main star [...]
There are none so inspiring in recent political history than Burmese pro-democracy activist Aung San Suu Kyi who remained under house arrest in Burma for almost 15 out of 21 years from 20 July 1989 until her most recent release on 13 November 2010. The Lady is Luc Besson’s heartbreaking but compelling love story about [...]
If ever a film was openly seeking Oscar recognition, it’s Steven Spielberg’s latest solemn contender, War Horse, coming hot off the heels of his recent fun family adventure, The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn. No stranger to evoking emotions when he so desires in his dramatic cinematic offerings that include Schindler’s List, [...]
While a solid serving of Equine induced sniffles may be denied to us here in the UK on Christmas Day Steven Spielberg’s second film of the year enters cinemas across the pond in a couple of weeks and there’s a new clip available if you’re currently fence-straddled. This new clip is introduced by Jeremy Irvine [...]
Three Horcruxes down and long past the point of no return, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) – alongside best friends Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) – are busy planning their next assault on Voldemort’s (Ralph Fiennes) divided soul. With Gringots Wizarding Bank and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry both harbouring Horcruxes, [...]
Dreamworks have released three new TV spots for their new movie, War Horse which is released 13th January. It stars Benedict Cumberbatch, David Thewlis, Tom Hiddleston, Emily Watson, David Kross, Peter Mullan, Eddie Marsan but from all I’ve seen so far, the real star is the horse which isn’t surprising considering the title. DreamWorks Pictures’ [...]
Spielberg seems to be trying another of his “one for the Oscars, one for the multiplex” years, much like 1993′s double-whamy of Schindler’s List and Jurassic Park. That worked out rather well for him, yielding what was then the highest ever grossing film at the box office (supplanting his own ET after some 11 years) [...]
I have a good feeling that Luc Besson’s The Lady is going to be one of my favourite films of the year by a long way. We got the first teaser trailer for it back in the summer, followed by the first full trailer last month, and both looked absolutely incredible. It was selected as [...]
The final film in the epic Harry Potter saga, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 swept across the world this summer and brought to an end the story of the Boy who Lived and his snake nosed nemesis. Of course the story isn’t quite over with the home entertainment release of Harry Potter [...]
HeyUGuys is very proud to be partnering with Cinémoi for our coverage of the Doha Tribeca Film Festival. Luc Besson’s The Lady closed the festival and Julien Planté brings us his review. “Freedom from fear”. Everything is there. This is the title of Aung San Suu Kyi’s speech in 1990 and the story of Luc [...]
To be or not to be, that is certainly the subjective question of whether director Roland Emmerich’s new film will excite or disgust. Indeed, with the covering of one of our greatest playwright’s names in his hometown of Stratford-upon-Avon in protest of Anonymous, William Shakespeare might be thrilled at the reignited interest in him. In [...]
We have already seen one trailer for Luc Besson’s The Lady which tells the true story of the life and struggle of Burmese politician Aung San Suu Kyi and now we have a full trailer for the highly anticipated film. It has always been when Besson explores new avenues in filmmaking beyond the lithe female assassin [...]
There’s a new trailer for Steven Spielberg’s latest out today and if you were in any doubt as to the inspirational nature of this one then feast your eyes on this… Jeremy Irvine is the man Spielberg picked out to lead his adaptation of Michael Morpurgo’s novel and while the horse gets top billing it’s [...]
We’ve just been sent the first poster for Steven Spielberg’s latest film, War Horse, and we thought we’d share it with you. With Spielberg directing his version of Michael Morpurgo’s novel, itself already well-known as a stage play, we can expect a severe heartstring-tugging in amongst all the horseplay. The non-equine cast looks pretty solid [...]
Warner Bros. have released the first clip / featurette from the Blu-ray release of their eight and final movie in the Harry Potter franchise, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. In the short clip, we get to see Director, David Yates narrate the kiss that Rupert Grint (Ron) and Emma Watson (Hermione) have [...]
The epic ends, the magic lasts. Harry Potter may have had its final bow on the big screen this summer, but that doesn’t mean the magic has to end too. The final instalment of the film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, will be released on DVD, Blu-Ray, and Blu-Ray 3D on [...]
Billed as a political thriller in tights Roland Emmerich is taking a step back from blowing up worlds to blowing our minds as he sets out the premise that Shakespeare not only never wrote any of the plays credited to him, but also never existed. Blimey. Anonymous has an exceptional cast in Rhys Ifans, Xavier [...]
Michelle Yeoh and David Thewlis lead one of this year’s most intriguing prospects, Luc Besson’s The Lady, which tells the story of the Burmese opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi, and there’s a new trailer out today in anticipation of the film’s premiere at Toronto on the 12th of September. It’s a simple trailer with some [...]
I’ve got some good and bad news for you people. The sort of good news is that if you’re a fan of Rhys Ifans or maybe director Roland Emmerich, we have a new trailer for you for their new movie, Anonymous. The bad news is that we got to see two new clips from the [...]
