Celebrating their eighteenth year this year, the Jameson Empire Awards returned to London to bestow their annual honour upon the best in film from 2012. The Empire Awards are one of the few that are voted for by the viewing public, with readers of Empire given the chance to vote for any and all of [...]
Following the immense success of Skyfall in the past six months, MGM are understandably keen to move ahead with Bond 24 soon. We heard at the start of the month that Sam Mendes has officially opted out of directing the as-yet-untitled sequel. In a conference call with investors, MGM Chairman and CEO, Gary Barber, has [...]
After steering the franchise to previously unknown heights in the past six months with Skyfall, Sam Mendes has officially decided not to return to direct Bond 24. The Mendes-directed 23rd James Bond film has taken more than a billion dollars around the world, and simultaneously had critics praising it from the start, culminating in two [...]
The ceremony is over here in London, bringing together some of the finest and most talented people in the film industry under the same roof for one night. The BAFTAs are this country’s highest honour in film, and they have handed out their awards for the 66th time to those whom they deem the most [...]
The art of the trailer is not an easy one to master. More and more, a strong trailer is an absolute necessity for a film to be a success. A strong trailer can send shivers down your spine; it can put you into a darkened auditorium on opening night; it can make the box office [...]
Over the weekend, Skyfall entered that elusive club of films that have grossed over $1bn. around the world, bringing the total number now to a healthy fourteen. That wasn’t the film’s only achievement, however, with the latest entry in the James Bond franchise taking another milestone at the UK box office. At the start of [...]
It’s no secret that Sam Mendes’ Skyfall has been one of the biggest films of 2012, but the extent to which the film has been a success around the globe has nonetheless been very surprising. Back in February, I made my predictions for which films would be entering that elusive club of films who have [...]
Returning for its fourth year we are proud to present the annual HeyUGuys movie awards – The Truffles. As each year draws to a close we let our wonderful team of writers loose on the movie landscape to throw plaudits at the great and good and fettered eggnog at those responsible for the bad and [...]
The Oscars are almost upon us, and the past few weeks have treated us to the shortlists competing in a number of categories, including Best Animated Feature, Best Visual Effects, Best Documentary, and Best Original Score. With the nominations announcement creeping ever closer at the start of next month, the Academy have now announced a [...]
The Oscars are a little over two months away, and with so many fantastic films released throughout this year, the anticipation surrounding the announcement of the nominations next month is running on high. So far, we’ve had the shortlists for the Best Animated Feature, the Best Visual Effects, and the Best Documentary categories. Now the [...]
It’s been storming the UK box-office ever since it was released on October 26th and now, just 6 weeks later, it’s officially taken the #1 spot from James Cameron’s 2009 movie Avatar. This feat is rather impressive especially since the takings for Skyfall are minus any 3D sales since the movie was shot in the [...]
2012 has been another huge year for blockbusters, with dozens of big-budgeted, big-scale films hitting the big screen pretty much from the word go. Whilst most blockbusters don’t find themselves as contenders in the majority of categories at the Oscars, one place we continually see them arrive is in the Best Visual Effects category. The [...]
Greg Williams has covered the last four Bond films, beginning with Die Another Day, and his work here on the set of Skyfall is jaw-dropping. He has an instinct to find the most compelling take on each of the scenes and he captures the candid moments between takes uncovering a light-hearted element in what is [...]
Skyfall has officially become the most successful James Bond movie in its long twenty-three-film career, and now Neal Purvis and Robert Wade, the writing duo behind every Bond film since The World is Not Enough, have confirmed that Skyfall will be their fifth and final entry in the franchise. The BAFTA-nominated duo have been writing [...]
By now I imagine we are all a little bored of hearing how brilliantly Skyfall is doing at the box office, so I’ll keep it brief this week and simply say, still making big bucks, 5th highest gross of all time so far, Avatar in its sights. I think that just about covers it. Last [...]
Sam Mendes’ Skyfall opened to record-breaking numbers last month in the UK, and has continued to break records in the weeks since, becoming the biggest film of the year on our shores. It finally opened in the US last weekend, taking just shy of $90m. and scoring an A grade amongst cinemagoers, showing that audiences [...]
Sam Mendes’ Skyfall is finally opening wide across the US today. Having debuted to excellent early reviews – you can read our review here – and record-breaking box office figures in the UK, becoming the biggest film of the year on our shores, things are looking very good for the latest James Bond venture. Daniel [...]
Sam Mendes’ Skyfall has been breaking records since its release at the end of last month here in the UK, taking an impressive £20.1m. in its first three days, the all-time highest opening weekend for a 2D film, and second only to Harry Potter’s final 3D instalment. Its US release is finally going wide tomorrow, [...]
Sam Mendes’ Skyfall has been busy breaking records here in the UK ever since its release last month, opening to an impressive £20.1m. in its first weekend, and continuing in strength in the past week and a half. With its release in the US finally coming this weekend, Mendes’ film has officially become the highest-grossing [...]
Through the many iterations of James Bond, the filmmakers have occasionally latched on to the popular films and genres of the time, and worked that formula into their films in an obvious attempt to bolster box office returns. Moore’s first outing as the superspy in Live and Let Die was partially indebted to the blaxploitation [...]
