Laughable fraud in 2011: In Star Trek Damon Lindelof renewal: Second

2011-07-21 20:56:49 Author: Eric Eisenberg It needs to be said: the sequel to the J.J. Abrams-directed Star Trek can’t get here soon enough. Ever since the film dropped in 2009 old fans and new fans alike have been clamoring for the creative team to get back together and get to work. Thanks to other projects, however, such as Super 8 and Cowboys & Aliens , the power team of Abrams, Damon Lindelof, Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci hasn’t been able to settle down and work on it. Finally that time has arrived. As I teased earlier today, I just got back from a…

The avenger trailer on-line leaked?

2011-07-17 23:39:55 Author: Josh Tyler We knew that Marvel had been planning to release a trailer for The Avengers , and assumed that it would play this weekend in front of Captain America: The First Avenger . It just makes sense, after all the word “Avenger” is in the title. In fact there had been reports that it may be shown at the very end of the movie, in the closing credits, which begs the question… what is this? The following video has popped up all over YouTube tonight. It appears to be some sort of leaked version of The Avengers trailer, but since…

The Vin diesel oil said that Riddick fires at this summer’s 3 starts, will obtain the R rating

2011-05-24 21:10:28 Author: Eric Eisenberg Last we heard about Vin Diesel taking on a project that wasn’t Fast and/or Furious related it was The Machine , a family action-comedy from the same people that brought you The Pacifier . For fans excited by what they saw in Fast Five and the potential for the actor to become an Arnold Schwarzenegger-level action star, the news was quite disheartening. Fortunately this news might help bring some of the energy back into the room. Diesel recently posted a new photo on his Facebook wall that came with an interesting message that indicates we may…

Wristwatch James Cameron and the Michael bay discusses the 3D abuse and the moral excellence

2011-05-20 18:12:17 Author: Eric Eisenberg As mentioned earlier this week when recapping the opening scenes from Transformers: Dark of the Moon , this past Wednesday I was invited to attend an event at Paramount Pictures where blockbuster directors Michael Bay and James Cameron sat down to have a moderated discussion about one of the most controversial subjects in movies today: 3D. In that same article I mentioned that video of the conversation would be available on Friday, and if you check you calendars, you’ll notice that that’s today. While the conversation – minus the footage shown – was about 30 minutes long, Paramount has released a…

The heroic legend continues: More from us and Paulo Feig exclusive interview

comments published: 2011-05-11 23:18:03 Author: Eric Eisenberg Earlier today I posted the first part of my interview with Bridesmaids director Paul Feig. During that half of the conversation, we talked about the current state of affairs as it pertains to female driven comedies, how the script changed going through production, and how they found the perfect male cast. Now it’s time for round two. Continuing the conversation, in this half of the interview Feig discusses what it’s like working with long-time collaborator Judd Apatow after all of these years, dealing with notes from the studio, and the dangers of overwriting. Check…

Saoirse Of ronan is not located into Hobbit after all

2011-05-05 23:38:42 Author: Eric Eisenberg While promoting Hanna at WonderCon last month, I took the opportunity to ask Saorise Ronan about The Hobbit . Rumored for a part in The Hobbit since January, Ronan said that she was not officially attached to the project yet. Turns out that it won’t be working out. Ronan recently spoke with the Belfast Telegraph (via The One Ring) and said that things likely won’t work out so that she can star in Peter Jackson’s two part epic. “It’s probably not going to work out with The Hobbit unfortunately,” said Ronan, “Because I would have been working…

It did spot lizard on the complete set of the amazing Of spider-Man?

2011-05-02 23:43:37 Author: Eric Eisenberg Earlier today the first images from the New York set of The Amazing Spider-Man arrived online, and while the pics did finally show off Peter Parker in his natural home, the truth is that they didn’t really show much that we haven’t seen already. Thus far crafty photographers have gotten plenty of snapshots of star Andrew Garfield both in costume as the webslinger and in his streets, and Emma Stone as the lovely Gwen Stacey. There is, however, one key character we haven’t seen yet. Pink Is The New Blog has posted more images from the…

Another new green poster of lantern makes with 5 in the last week

2011-04-28 14:31:02 Author: Eric Eisenberg The Warner Bros. advertising team is working its ass off right now making up for lost time. In the last few months the folks behind Green Lantern have been trying to get the CGI to the point that they can make the film marketable and in recent weeks they’ve accomplished it. But just like when you un-pinch a hose and all the water shoots out, now that the studio has something to work with they’ve been releasing images and posters non-stop. Earlier today a banner poster showing off a cross section of the Green Lantern…

International X- people: The trailer of the first class even is better than domestic one

2011-04-27 14:48:49 Author: Eric Eisenberg That’s right, folks. Another X-Men: First Class post. Earlier today we saw the release of the first theatrical trailer for the Matthew Vaughn-directed movie and then we got a new (terrible) poster. Now the international trailer has been released, courtesy of Bleeding Cool. While I applauded the trailer from earlier for focusing on the fundamentals of the X-Men franchise, this one goes the other route and provides plenty of action and I must say that it is quite awesome. Click on the image below to see the trailer. For more on X-Men: First…

Transformers: The darkness of the image of moon gives to us another view on the shock wave

2011-04-25 16:41:13 Author: Eric Eisenberg As announced last week, the first theatrical trailer for Transformers: Dark of the Moon will be released this week. To celebrate the run-up to the extended spot, Paramount has teamed up with Apple to deliver one new Transformers still a day. Today we get still number one. Delivering our second look at the character, the image provided is another shot of Shockwave, a Decepticon making his debut in the series’ second sequel. While the picture does show off the bad guy’s single eyeball, the character’s other most distinctive feature is sadly cut off: the giant laser…
