*The following post is for entertainment purposes only.* From the moment I woke up that morning I knew something incredible was going to happen. It was press day for the film “Chronicle” and I was set to interview the films Director Josh Trank and the three main cast members Dane DeHaan, Alex Russell and Michael B. [...]
Lionsgate have been kind enough to give three of our readers the chance to win Killers on DVD. KILLERS is a hilarious, unpredictable action comedy about love, marriage and serious firepower with a stellar cast including Ashton Kutcher (Valentine’s Day, Just Married), Katherine Heigl (27 Dresses, Knocked Up), Tom Selleck and Catherine O’Hara. Directed by [...]
As with the other DVDs of Morris’s work, and I’m thinking specifically of The Day Today and the sublime Brass Eye, there is a wonderful menu when you load up the disc – totally surreal, and completely correct for the film. Immediately you know you’re in good hands. I reviewed this film when it was [...]
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 [...]
Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is barely a month away, and with the San Diego Comic Con this weekend the already impressive marketing campaign has reached overdrive. Over the last few days we’ve seen two new posters, seven remixes of the trailer, and an entire hotel exterior branded to promote the movie. Now MTV have [...]
Ashton Kutcher’s new movie Killers had it’s world premiere where Lionsgate decided not only to stream the red carpet live, they also showed an internet only exclusive showing the first 13 minutes of the movie. Killers also stars Kathrine Heigl, Catherine O’Hara, Tom Selleck and is directed by Robert Luketic. Seems a bit odd to [...]
Last week, I attended the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time press conference in a lovely hotel in London. All the stars were there including leading man, Jake Gyllenhaal, Gemma Arterton, Sir Ben Kingsley, producer Jerry Bruckheimer, director Mike Newell and the creator of the Prince of Persia computer game franchise, Jordan Mechner. The [...]
When Chris Morris announced he was making a comedy film about terrorism, specifically suicide bombers, it was inevitable that there would be a backlash. The BBC are running a story today which details the reaction to Four Lions, Morris’s debut feature film which is out in cinemas today, from some of the people who lost [...]
With the hugely influential media satires of Brass Eye and The Day Today behind him Chris Morris has fixed his eye on a subject which doesn’t so much court controversy but stick its tongue down its throat – a comedy about suicide bombers. And it takes someone with the comic genius and moral intelligence of [...]
A favourite at Sundance and long awaited by fans of Chris Morris’s work on The Day Today and Brass Eye, the jihadi comedy Four Lions has a great new poster. Empire had this one first and it shows a total understanding of the pitch black humour expected to fuel the film. The film tells of [...]
It’s Oscar Nomination day today and at 13.30 GMT, Anne Hathaway will be announcing the nominations at some unearthly hour in a hotel in Los Angeles. We here at HeyUGuys are big supporters of Moon and all things Duncan Jones and Sam Rockwell but we’ve got a sneaky suspicion that Colin Firth could not only [...]
It takes someone with the sickest twist of a comedic imagination to write a comedy film about a group of incompetent jihadists; it takes someone with the talent of Chris Morris to make it work and with the first clip to emerge from his film Four Lions, it seems he has succeeded. We reported a [...]
The chaps over at Cinematical have released the first footage from Ironclad which is still filming over in Wales. We had our first image of James Purefoy swinging the biggest sword (a real one you dirty minded people) in the world last week and this footage sites nicely alongside it. I do struggle when I [...]
