Thanks so much to Whitehouse Content who made this video (with a nod of the cap to The Vulture) as it literally had be laughing out loud! It basically shows what Jaws could have been like if it was a family-friendly Disney esk movie and I’m not hoping it gets made! Prepare to laugh! Here’s how [...]
Yesterday I awoke to a press release telling me that the BT Tower was going to be turned into a Lightsaber (and last night it came true) and this morning I get news that one of my childhood heroes, Postman Pat is going to get his own feature film! There’s a full press release from [...]
It has felt like a pretty slow year at the box office, but that has changed over the last several weeks. Fast Five and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides have both made huge amounts of money, but this weekend a box office record was broken. To be fair, we are not talking about [...]
The weekend box office estimates are in, and against all odds Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides has achieved the highest opening weekend total so far this year. It just managed to squeak past previous highest Fast Five’s total, with an estimated $90m according to Inside Movies at EW.com, and sets a big target [...]
As you may have seen from the post preceding this one, Tom Cruise is celebrating 30 years in the movie industry this year and I thought what better use of our time could there be than running a poll for your all-time favourite Tom Cruise movie?! Below is his entire body of feature film work [...]
As soon as Avatar finished its super successful cinema run rumours emerged that the world hadn’t seen the end of the story, and that we were to expect a second chapter to Jake and Neytiri’s adventures in Pandora. The Hollywood Reporter has now announced that director James Cameron is getting ready to film not one, [...]
One of this past year’s hidden gems was Gareth Edward’s Monsters. Despite the overt nature of the title, the ‘Monsters’ in question only made the briefest of appearances, with the main crux of the story concentrating on the developing relationship between the two protagonists.The sci-fi element of the plot was really more of a backdrop [...]
This month has been one of the best that I can remember for trailers. All the studios were desperate for their trailer to get released before the Christmas holidays and we were inundated with posts. Since I love trailers so much, the inundation was most welcome. In what I am considering making a monthly post, [...]
As has been widely reported, Harry Potter made a massive impact at the box office in the last few weeks, and continues to do so. Success was inevitable, and the level of success predictable. Harry Potter is one of the most popular book series of all time, appealing to fans both young and old. All [...]
Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore is released on 29th November and it made me think that another post was in order looking at the ‘top 10 evil animals in film’! I have two cats myself (Dennis and Harry) and they’ve helped me to compile this list of who they think are the [...]
Not long before fans of James Cameron’s Avatar get to spend a little more time in the world of Pandora and as the Extended Collector’s Edition readies itself for the Blu-ray and DVD launch on the 15th of November, you can get a sneak preview of what to expect with this new clip from the [...]
Well, it’s not a huge surprise, but it’s good to know that as well as overseeing the next Superman film Christopher Nolan has just confirmed that he will be directing Batman 3. Empire had the rather good fortune to catch Nolan in a chatty mood and here’s the all important confirmation, I don’t know if [...]
Last week, Inception broke the $500m worldwide gross milestone. A big success story, to be sure, but after The Dark Knight’s $1bn+ number, it perhaps isn’t really a major surprise. It was even less of a surprise when it was revealed that Nolan would be at the helm for Batman 3 once Inception was done and dusted, [...]
The name of Tobey Maguire’s Peter Parker successor was confirmed last week, with the news that British actor Andrew Garfield would be donning the red and blue spandex. We’ve heard many names mentioned since the as yet Untitled Spider-Man Reboot was announced several months ago, some well known, others not so much. That such a [...]
The Concert is one of the best films I’ve seen this year, it’s moving, funny, original, completely satisfying and definitely a surprise hit this year and I hope more people will get to see it amongst the summer blockbusters that mostly disappoint during this seasons of films. So if you care to see another film [...]
23 years ago, a formulaic Arnold Schwarzenegger action vehicle was released. It enjoyed box office, if not necessarily critical success. A lacklustre follow-up ensured the franchise was, cinematically at least, silenced for many years. The series’ protagonists were given their big screen resurrection 6 years ago with shared billing, with a sequel 3 years later. [...]
Over the last week or so, we’ve seen yet more casting rumours for the third installment of Christopher Nolan’s Batman series. Most recently, we’ve heard that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is being primed to take on the part of The Riddler, based on as little as a supposed conversation on the set of Inception between Levitt and [...]
The big news a few weeks ago was the departure of Megan Fox from the Transformers franchise. At first she was pushed, then her ‘people’ claimed she did, in fact, jump. So which is it? And what does it mean, if anything, for the success of Transformers 3? Paramount’s official line was that Fox’s option [...]
