To celebrate the release of the fantastic 3D, CG-animated family comedy Arthur Christmas, an Aardman production for Sony Pictures Animation released on November 11th, we are giving away 5 Arthur Christmas Story Books – just in time for Christmas!! Arthur Christmas reveals the incredible, never-before seen answer to every child’s question: ‘So how does Santa [...]
Aardman Animation have put 5 new clips online for their latest film, Arthur Christmas, this week. From the studio behind Chicken Run and Wallace and Gromit, Arthur Christmas tells a classic Christmas tale asking the often-wondered, never-answered question, “How does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?” The answer is found through unlikely hero, [...]
For those out there who are still mystified as to how Santa manages that seemingly superhuman feat of single-handedly delivering presents to every child on earth the night before Christmas, this new Aardman/Sony Pictures co-production offers a feasible explanation. In a position passed down through generations of Clauses, the close-to-retirement Santa (Jim Broadbent, in a [...]
With X-Men First Class finally available on Blu-Ray this week (check out our review here), we got a chance to talk to our favourite teleporting Devil-a-like, Jason Flemyng. Given how many films the man’s been in over a 20 year long career, the hardest part of interviewing him is staying on the subject at hand [...]
In a year awash with superhero movies a new X-Men film was in danger of being overlooked, or even avoided altogether given the toxic slap of X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men: Origins Wolverine and yet here we are with me telling you that X-Men: First Class is tremendous fun and edges up to X2 [...]
On 14th April 1865, John Wilkes Booth walked up behind Abraham Lincoln in his box at Ford’s Theatre and shot him. As this film’s tagline testifies however, although one man shot Lincoln, more than one man killed him. Booth and his accomplices were pursued and for the most part found and arrested, though Booth himself [...]
Robert Redford’s Lincoln assassination drama The Conspirator is out on DVD and Blu-ray on the 24th of October and we’ve been given a clip from the film to share with you. Redford has assembled an excellent cast for the film, which had a decent, if a little short lived, theatrical release earlier in the year [...]
Here’s another new poster for Arthur Christmas, Aardman’s movie together with Sony Animation. The movie will be with us 11th November and has a great voice cast which includes James McAvoy, Hugh Laurie, Jim Broadbent, Bill Nighy, Imelda Staunton, Ashley Jensen and is directed by Sarah Smith. An Aardman production for Sony Pictures Animation, at [...]
To mark the release of The Conspirator on DVD and Blu-ray 24th October, Universal Studios have given us five copies of the movie to give away on DVD. The ovie stars James McAvoy, Robin Wright, Kevin Kline, Tom Wilkinson, Justin Long, Danny Huston, Evan Rachel Wood and is directed by Robert Redford. Esteemed British actor [...]
Sony have released a new trailer for their forthcoming film Arthur Christmas and it’s the best look yet at what Aardman have in store for us this coming Yuletide season. The film features the voice talents of James McAvoy, Imelda Staunton, Jim Broadbent, Bill Nighy, Hugh Laurie and Ashley Jensen which is probably reason enough [...]
With mere weeks to go until the really rather brilliant X-Men: First Class hits on Blu-ray and DVD, a new deleted scene from the movie has surfaced giving us an altogether different perspective on one particular moment from the film. In the sequence where Charles Xavier (James McAvoy) and Erik Lensherr (Michael Fassbender) attempt to [...]
In an interview discussing his new book Ecstacy, acclaimed Scottish author Irvine Welsh confirmed that James McAvoy (Atonement), Jamie Bell (Hallam Foe) and Alan Cumming (GoldenEye) are set to star in a feature film adaptation of his novel Filth. Filth centers on Bruce Robertson (McAvoy), a sex-obsessed, cocaine-addicted, bigoted Scottish police officer who is supposed to be [...]
Vincent Cassel and Rosario Dawson are in negotiations to fill the other lead spots, alongside James McAvoy, in Danny Boyle’s follow-up to this year’s fantastic 127 Hours, Deadline report. Boyle will be directing the 2012 Olympic Games opening ceremony, so production on Trance will start this autumn in London until he switches projects in January, [...]
Any film which has Jim Broadbent as Father Christmas has my attention, and throw the name of Aardman Animation into the ring and there’s a ninety percent chance of heavy anticipation. Arthur Christmas is Aardman’s latest, with James McAvoy, Imelda Staunton, Bill Nighy and Hugh Laurie lending their voices to the production with Peter Baynham [...]
Robert Redford’s Lincoln assassination drama The Conspirator is now out in the UK, although without a huge amount of fanfare so let’s get everyone in the mood with a new poster, shall we? We’ve seen a few images and had ourselves a trailer and anything with James McAvoy will stir a certain section of the [...]
We’ve gone X-Men: First Class crazy over the past few months for the simple reason that we love it. You can see why by reading Adam’s review of the movie here. Twentieth Century Fox have sent over this brand new clip for the movie which is called Training Montage and does what it says on [...]
Last week we managed to tap into our dormant mutant powers and attend the press conference for X-Men: First Class to hear firsthand experiences of the production from key members of the cast and co-scribe Jane Goldman. Our review of the film is here and you can check it out right now as it is [...]
Last week I got to spend some time with Spanish actor Alex Gonzalez who makes his big Hollywood debut as Riptide tomorrow when Matthew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class is released in the UK. Riptide is the the tornado-conjuring mutant henchman of chief villain Sebastian Shaw.. In the interview, I got to find out what it [...]
It’s pretty likely that this article is late. Following on the heels of (at least eight of) our competitors. That’s because we believe that the interesting part of the interview this article comes from is the rest of it. Frankly, reporting about Mark Millar’s next project, one we’ve already written about seems pointless. We like [...]
HeyUGuys recently joined several other film news sites at a round table interview with Matthew Vaughn to talk about all things X-Men: First Class. The interview lasted over 45 minutes, and because it was only for sites that write about film (unlike other round tables where we share with all sorts of outlets), it’s pretty [...]
