Christmas Video Vault – Gremlins

Gremlins

‘Tis the season to wreck havoc. Joe Dante’s 1984 tale of that loveable and unique Christmas gift which turns out to be more trouble than he’s worth is now a firm festive favourite, and similar to Die Hard, it has earned a loving place on that list whilst using the holidays ostensibly as a hook [...]

sigourney_weaver_avatar

Everyone’s favourite alien-bashing action heroine Sigourney Weaver has spoken out about two forthcoming blockbuster sequels she’s attached to. Depending on how cynical you’re feeling, the news that she’ll be returning to the verdant CGI jungles of Pandora for the two Avatar sequels should come as no surprise, despite the fact that her character Dr. Grace [...]

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.

Laz Marquez Ghostbusters Print

Ghostbusters - Laz Marquez

I’m a fan of Laz Marquez’s work and we previously posted his poster for A Nightmare on Elm Street, which you can see here. He’s just posted a new colourful film related piece that he’s been working on and this time he’s tackled the 1984 Ivan Reitman film Ghostbusters. The print features the characters Dana [...]

Avatar’s Inflated Box Office and Other Stories

Avatar

James Cameron’s Avatar is now certain to become the highest grossing movie of all time, both at the domestic US Box Office and internationally, well, sort of. Factor in inflation and things look a little different. Ed crunches the numbers and finds out if today’s blockbusters are really more popular than their counterparts from yesteryear.
