Two actors, two faces and a two sided story. I smell an Oscar nod for Gosling…I see audience rejection of the film.
It’s October. A time when Ghoulies, Ghosties and Long-Legged Beasties roam the earth. But if you start seeing the ghost of a World War II Japanese kamikaze fighter pilot, you’re probably Enoch Brae, the central character of Restless. And that’s not a bad place to be. Enoch is an odd kid. If your name is Enoch [...]
“Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots” get their day on the big screen in Real Steel, a movie that transcends the one-joke premise and is instead a heartwarming, fist-pumping mechanized fairy tale of a father and son coming together amid some of the baddest technology you’ll ever wish was really available. Not to bad for a [...]
Check out these wonderful minimalistic movie posters designed by Grischa Stanjek (Atomic Popcorn reader) who so graciously shared this personal project with us and now we’re sharing it with all of you!

As a member of that audience I say “thank you!” (I’m not sure where Al Gore stands on Intellegent [...]
I love posters. British designer and illustrator Matt Needle has created some pretty interesting posters of his favorite Alfred Hitchcock and Stanley Kubrick films. You can buy all of these prints through his website and currently he is giving 50% of all proceeds from his Hitchcock series to the Haiti Aid Relief! What a great [...]
Movies are never just movies. For most of us there’s the poster first, then the trailer, finally the movie. Sometimes. if not most of the time, there will be multiple versions of the posters and trailers before we see the movie. The movie is what it is – or is it? The posters and trailers have [...]
We recently brought you news that Iron Man 2 is to be featured in the January issue of Empire magazine. We also gave you a glimpse of the cover, which features Iron Man’s new look. Now, we’re pleased to present you with the first official poster from the movie. The poster features Iron Man in [...]
While time starts closing in with the soon to be released Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince, Warner Bros has released the final poster that will grace the walls around all said movie theaters.
