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 [...]
Hollywood is where I’ve had most of my werewolf encounters but enough about Robin Williams. Let’s explore this particular pack of Tinseltown werewolf as I wanna hear your pick for the alpha male to lead the pack. Benicio Del Toro has his The Wolfman set for a very romantic Valentine’s Day weekend theatrical release (February 12, 2010) while you’ll have [...]
One of the year’s biggest movies, The Twilight Saga: New Moon just got a DVD release date. Summit Entertainment confirms everyone’s favorite Girl-Meets-Vampire-Meets-Werewolf story is set to start flying off shelves starting March 20th. The Two-Disc Special Edition will include audio commentary from director Chris Weitz and editor Peter Lambert, and features a six-part behind-the-scenes [...]
For as large and intense as the Twilight fanbase is, you’d think the makers of New Moon would have expected that viewers would be going over the movie’s details with a fine-tooth comb and done everything to ensure there were no mistakes in the film. Or maybe they just assumed the largely female crowd of [...]
Apparently the U.S. isn’t the only country to have been stricken with New Moon fever. While the $118 million the film brought in overseas may have not quite met the amount domestic gross of $140.7 million for its first weekend, it was still enough to make New Moon the number one film at box offices [...]
Well, the vampires did it. After crushing the box office record for biggest draw for a midnight release, New Moon has officially broken the record for best opening day sales. The film’s first day in theaters grossed $72.7 million at 4,024 theaters, easily passing up the amount brought in by former holder of the “best [...]
New Moon: Introducing Team Jacob For fans, the Twilight saga has become a sort of sporting event pitting one team against another. Team Edward was crazed upon the release of last year’s Twilight, and while New Moon is definitely geared toward “the other team,” there is more than adequate sexual tension and angst to satisfy [...]
Twilight is out of control, and now its floodgates have burst, spilling its contents everywhere. Bit players such as Ashley Greene from the Twilight films are now getting genre work — in this case, it’s The Apparition for Joel Silver’s Dark Castle production house. (To be fair, I have no idea how big or small [...]
I’m convinced that the Twilight franchise really is aiming to take over the world. First the book series took off in a way that, aside from Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, few book series see. Teenage girls immediately fell in love with Edward Cullen, and we soon saw shirts saying “My boyfriend is [...]
