The road to Cooper’s Dell is almost as interesting and eventful a journey as Red State itself with director Kevin Smith taking matters of distribution into his own hands and releasing the film through his own Smodcast Pictures company, something he announced in typical understated fashion at Sundance last year. Eschewing the studio system (with [...]
Kevin Smith’s own personal blend of stand-up comedy is by far my favourite of any stand-up comedian. Rather than write a routine and perform it night after night, he takes himself on tour doing Q&As on camera, and gives his fans the chance to ask him anything they want, and his answers are always absolute [...]
With Django Unchained set for a Christmas Day 2012 release over in the States, writer-director/cinephile Quentin Tarantino has got a busy year ahead of him. The casting news for the film has been brilliant so far, with leading roles set to come from Jamie Foxx, Leonardo DiCaprio, Christopher Waltz, Kerry Washginton, Don Johnson, Kurt Russell, [...]
At HeyUGuys we rather enjoyed Goon (our review here). Not only is it a terrific film, but it’s also represents something of a change of pace for leading man Sean William Scott. He might not be playing an entirely straight role, but it’s the closest he’s come to playing a dramatic lead, and he pulls [...]
Earlier today I had the extreme pleasure of being able to attend the US Premiere of Morgan Spurlock’s touching Documentary entitled Comic-Con Episode Four: A Fan’s Hope. The film follows a week in the life of 7 individuals as they attend the biggest gathering of geeks and fanboys on the planet known as Comic-Con. With [...]
Emmy Award- and Golden Globe-winning actor, John Goodman, one of my favourite people to have graced the big and small screen, is now in talks to join Denzel Washington on Robert Zemeckis’ next film, Flight, Deadline report. The film will see Zemeckis’ first return to live-action since 2000’s Cast Away, having directed The Polar Express, [...]
Red State is out in UK cinemas this Friday and our friends from Upbeat got the chance to chat with Writer / Director Kevin Smith about the movie, what we can expect and why we should go and see it. He also goes into detail about how many of the actors were paid very little [...]
Seemingly lost in a foggy haze of a mid-life crisis love affair with the chronic (often blurring his decisions on how to deal with fans and critics alike), former prodigal Weinstein son and self-confessed purveyor of the “dick and fart” school of comedy (which has now fully infiltrated the Hollywood mainstream), Kevin Smith, returns from [...]
To mark the release of Kevin Smith’s new movie, Red State in cinemas 30th September, Entertainment One have given us some rather great merchandise to give away. We’ve been given one Kevin Smith signed Red State poster and 5 sets of merchandise which includes a poster, t-shirt and cool silver cross USB stick. (Please note: [...]
It’s been almost three and a half decades since Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope hit the big screens and took the world by storm, and in all of the years following, the series of six films has penetrated pop culture across the world in a way that very, very few films or franchises [...]
Kevin Smith, whose latest movie, Red State, is set to be unlike anything he’s ever done before, has announced that his next film will be released in two parts, and they will be titled Hit Somebody: Home and Hit Somebody: Away, The Playlist report. He also adds that the two-parter, which he’s said could be [...]
So much footage and photos has been coming from the set of The Dark Knight Rises over the past few weeks, and I’ve intentionally avoided some of it to keep plenty of surprises for when the film is actually released on 20th July next year. This new footage was too tempting to resist though, with [...]
Ka-pow! Here’s the poster (via IMP Awards) for a new documentary on Papa Marvel himself, Stan Lee. Now almost as iconic as the characters he once dreamt up, at the ripe old age of 88, Lee is still very much as relevant today as he was all those decades back, feverishly writing away and bringing [...]
In case you missed it, this week saw the release of a brand new trailer for Kevin Smith’s forthcoming horror thriller, Red State, and it is all kinds of awesome. Now CoopersDell.com have a brilliant new poster for the film that brings a different feel to the majority its first posters, no longer set against [...]
All the way from CoopersDell.com comes the latest trailer for Kevin Smith’s dalliance with all things devil and this is the clearest look at what Smith has been touring the States with for the past few months. We were hoping to have seen the film by now but a last minute intervention from the director [...]
Ok, this one is a bit special. In fact, when my review copy arrived in the post I tweeted the cover and found several jealous replies coming my way – and this is entirety understandable as this book is a collection of the finest cult movie inspired artwork I’ve ever seen. L.A.’s Gallery 1988 opened [...]
THR are reporting that 20th Century Fox have hired Brad Caleb Kane, writer-producer of Fox’s popular series, Fringe, to write the script for the upcoming reboot of Daredevil. Last seen on the screen back in 2003 with Ben Affleck then taking the titular role, this new film is to be directed by British music and [...]
By my count, this is the seventh poster for Kevin Smith’s Red State to be released in the last few months, and it is just as excellent as the last six. Same black background, same scratched-up effect, and now we see the brilliant Stephen Root (TV’s King of the Hill and NewsRadio) as The Sheriff. [...]

On Thursday, The Phoenix Cinema in East Finchley, London played host to an evening showcasing the surreal and esoteric talents of one Crispin Hellion Glover. The 46-year-old actor/filmmaker will be immediately recognisable to many as Marty McFly’s weedy, put-upon father in Back to the Future, and as the creepy and silent henchman in the film [...]
