If you’ve ever dreamed of cutting together your own TV spot for a Batman film, now is your chance. Even better? The winning video for this contest will be selected by ‘The Dark Knight Rises‘ director himself, Chris Nolan.
Sometimes, you hear news that makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up. Your rational mind denies it. You remind yourself that no one could possibly be that greedy. No one could possibly be that stupid. No film studio could loathe their audience that much. This is a Rumor with a capital “R,” so grab your fistful of salt, but Bloody Disgusting is reporting that the folks at Lionsgate (who recently acquired Summit Entertainment) are already discussing a reboot of the ‘Twilight‘ franchise.
For those of us who follow the box office, this weekend was a case of deja vu. Once again, ‘Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted‘ headlined the top ten and once again, ‘Prometheus‘ snatched the number two spot. Both films managed to keep their momentum despite the opening of two new releases starring two of the biggest movie stars in the world. That’s good news if you’re ‘Madagascar 3′ or ‘Prometheus,’ but pretty bad news if you’re Tom Cruise or Adam Sandler.
Fans of 1980s music and lovers of inane comedy will both be well-served by this weekend’s new movie offerings.
‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit?’ hit theaters in 1988 and was groundbreaking in the way it seamlessly blended modern animation with live-action (though to be fair, this was not the first time this was achieved). It was, at the time, the most expensive animated film ever made and spent many years in development perfecting the technology. And now we have a look at what ‘Roger Rabbit’ looked like (and sounded like) in his earlier incarnations via a 1982 pencil test from Walt Disney Animation.
While you were busy getting excited for Chris Nolan‘s ‘The Dark Knight Rises,’ there’s been another ‘Dark Knight’ film in the works. Join us for a sneak peek at DC‘s animated adaptation of Frank Miller‘s ‘The Dark Knight Returns.’
‘The Amazing Spider-Man‘ is just a few weeks away and today we have a new clip of Peter Parker showing off his skills. And as it turns out, Spider-Man is a baller.
The Los Angeles Kings captured their first Stanley Cup title on Monday night. Their improbable title run made them the first eighth-seeded team to win the NHL championship.
The California franchise is based in an area that is not a traditional hockey hotbed. The Kings should certainly be happy to silence critics who believed the team could never succeed in such an environment.
A list of five things to enjoy and five things to avoid for the week includes Danny Boyle’s ‘Shallow Grave’ on Blu-ray, ‘Rock of Ages,’ and ‘Abraham Lincoln Vs. Zombies’ Which should you check out and which should you chuck?
It’s difficult to imagine two more different films going head-to-head at the box office. However, by appealing to completely different audiences, ‘Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted‘ and ‘Prometheus‘ both managed to emerge from the weekend as big winners, making this the first weekend in months where two new major releases opened strong.
Sci-fi adventure or family-friendly animated fun? Take your pick — those are the new offerings at the movies this weekend.
The box office can be a funny thing. Last weekend, ‘Men in Black 3‘ made $55 million and was considered a disappointment. This weekend, ‘Snow White and the Huntsman‘ pulled in $56 million and it’s considered a roaring success. As bizarre as that sounds, it all makes sense when you look at the details.
