Well, it looks like the possibility of a sequel to Independence Day is more than just a rumor. In a recent interview with MTV News, director Roland Emmerich revealed that, while there’s no script as of yet, there is definitely an idea for what the sequel will entail.
Emmerich plans on the sequel having a much [...]
There’s no doubt that Will Smith is one of Hollywood’s biggest power players: he’s one of Tinseltown’s highest paid actors, and if his name is put on a project, chances are pretty good that film is going to do well at the box office.
However, Smith is not one to rest on his laurels and go [...]
Having recently revisited Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy, I’ve come to the conclusion that that film has a little slice of everything. It has incredibly light humor followed by the darkest of gallows humor, and then proceeds to toss any funny business aside to strike at some of the darkest themes I’ve ever seen in a film. [...]
I didn’t fall head over heels in love with Tropic Thunder as many other people did; I found it overlong and Jack Black’s performance sucked all the air out after Robert Downey Jr. would fill it up again. That’s not to say it’s bad. It’s really very good, just not mind-blowing.
One film that was very [...]
It often happens that movies that seem to end on a nicely wrapped up note still leave that slight dangling thread from which a sequel could potentially be weaved. This does not, however, mean that filmmakers should grab the opportunity to do so.
Independence Day is one such film that should be left alone. In 1996, [...]
Just read this at the Hollywood Reporter and I hope it is true. I loved the first two “Bad Boys” movies and think they are great action flicks and some of the best mindless fun I’ve seen on the big screen.
Columbia Pictures is developing a third installment of the high-octane “Bad Boys” franchise, tapping Peter [...]
Yes ladies and gentlemen, you can expect to see Will Smith return in a sequel to Hancock. You have ample time to develop a sense of enthusiasm and cross your fingers for a more interesting and dynamic film than the first.

There was a time when Will Smith struck me as little more than a black Keanu Reeves. If you look at their careers side by side there are certainly strong similarities. It could be argued that Will Smith’s comedic Fresh Prince character is a more evolved version of Keanu’s Ted Logan. Both actors had [...]
It’s no mystery that many found 2008 to be a relatively lackluster year, with the majority of the films released receiving mediocre reviews at best. So, whenever a really good or truly great movie came along, it was a real delight. Such movies included titles like Iron Man and of course, The Dark Knight. But [...]
Seven Pounds is a powerful, mysterious film, slow to reveal itself, but engaging all the way. In the opening minutes, we hear Will Smith’s character make a 911 call reporting a suicide – his own – before flashing back to a series of seemingly random, inconsistent, disconnected actions. He tells us that he has shattered [...]
Sony Pictures has revealed three brand new TV spots and photos from Seven Pounds, which stars Will Smith. Rosario Dawson and Woody Harrelson also starring in the movie.
Here is a little tidbit about the movie itself.
Ben (Will Smith) is an IRS agent who sets out on an extraordinary journey to make amends for a tragedy [...]
