Take a Look At an X-Wing From ‘Star Wars VII’

Take a Look At an X-Wing From ‘Star Wars VII’

We’re all anxiously awaiting Episode VII and voraciously devouring any bit of information we can get our hands on. And J.J. has admitted that due to the nature of Disney and Lucas Film, he’s not going to be able to be as secretive as he normally likes to be. So we’ve been starting to see a series of little tidbits and snippets from the upcoming film in an official capacity.

In the latest video, while reminding us of the charity event that will land a lucky someone a minor role in the film, Mr. Abrams gives us a peek at an X-Wing. It looks slightly different from the X-Wing fighter we came to…

Honest Trailer for ‘Divergent’

Honest Trailer for ‘Divergent’

I liked Divergent well enough, but it is certainly not without its criticisms, which makes this Honest Trailer so delicious and delightful. And I loved the parts cutting to Jon Bailey in the studio talking about how they had already done this one. Great stuff.

Kevin Feige Proves His Classiness in Speaking of D.C.

Kevin Feige Proves His Classiness in Speaking of D.C.
Kevin Jagernauth — The Playlist

While Kevin Feige has enough to talk about when it comes to the forthcoming “Guardians Of The Galaxy,” it seems much of his press time of late has been spent explaining what the heck has been going on with “Ant-Man.” And then over his shoulder are his rivals at D.C. Comics who coming hard in 2016 with “Batman v. Superman: Dawn Of Justice.” But Feige feels no ill toward his fellow purveyors of comic book cinema, and he credits the success they’ve achieved so far.

“I don’t think it is quite far to say DC is finally getting their act together. ‘The Dark Knight’ movies were rather successful…

Spoiler Alert! The Idiot’s Guy to SPOILERS!

Spoiler Alert! The Idiot’s Guy to SPOILERS!

Spoilers is something we who like movies and books and things think about almost as part of our thought processes. Most of us draw different lines about how much is a spoiler, what the etiquette is, etc. But it’s a fascinating conversation. We all draw a line somewhere that when someone spoils something, they’re just being a jerk. But then, maybe you’re one of those who spoils stuff for other people and you should stop it.

But where is the line, what are the rules, how long do you wait, when can you talk freely about stuff? Hal Rudnick of Screen Junkies and his co-hosts attempt to answer the…

J.K. Rowling Posts New Harry Potter Story on Pottermore

J.K. Rowling Posts New Harry Potter Story on Pottermore
Angie Han — /Film

Seven years after the publication of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final installment of the series, the boy wizard is back for more adventure. Only he’s not a boy anymore.

In a new Harry Potter story posted this morning on Pottermore, J.K. Rowling sends Harry, now 34, to the Patagonian Desert for the Quidditch World Cup. Naturally, Ron, Hermione, Neville, and Luna are there with him — as is The Daily Prophet‘s Rita Skeeter, who still has plenty to say about the gang.

I’m really sad that I’ve been way to busy to check this out yet. I want to read this very badly. My…

We’re Getting a Director’s Cut of ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’

We’re Getting a Director’s Cut of ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’

X-Men: Days of Future Past was a fantastic film and if any film deserves a director’s cut, it’s probably this one. We’ve heard a lot about how much material had to be cut because there just wasn’t time for it. Particularly, there was a sub-plot where Rogue (Anna Paquin) stepped in to help Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page) when she got injured.

The official line for cutting that portion from the film is that it reduced the tension and urgency of the time crunch from Kitty’s injury. That does make sense, and normally I’m strictly a theatrical cut kind of guy with very few exceptions, but I’d like to…

Honest Trailer: ‘Planet of the Apes’ (2001)

Honest Trailer: ‘Planet of the Apes’ (2001)

Tim Burton’s 2001 Planet of the Apes has to be one of the worst films in existence. So obviously, the Honest Trailer for this one nails it. And I’m certainly looking forward to the upcoming film and expect it to be even better than the rebooted reboot, which was decent enough.

Bryan Singer Teases Treatment for ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’

Bryan Singer Teases Treatment for ‘X-Men: Apocalypse’
Bryan Singer — Instagram

It appears that Bryan Singer is ready to put the scandals and allegations behind him. Yesterday he took to Instagram to post a picture of the treatment for the upcoming film X-Men: Apocalypse. It is his first photo on Instagram. Due to the allegations, he bowed out of all press leading up to Days of Future Past, and we haven’t really heard anything from him regarding any productions he’s been involved in. This certainly makes it appears as if he’s “back in the game”.

So what can we glean from this little teaser photo? Well, the word “The Nile” are visible so we can assume Egypt is involved…

A ‘Star Wars Trailer’, ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Style

A ‘Star Wars Trailer’, ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Style

Oh man, I nearly laughed myself to death watching this. This, folks, is why you can’t quite trust trailers. In my heart, I truly believe that Guardians of the Galaxy will be pretty much like what we’re getting in the trailer, but this is proof that trailers can be extremely deceptive.

‘TNG Season 6’ Blu-ray

‘TNG Season 6’ Blu-ray
Matt Wright — TrekMovie.com

Season 6 is arguably the best season of TNG. The writers that we associate with TNG’s better episodes were all present, the production staff had TNG down cold, the visual effects were at their peak technologically, and the episodes covered a diverse group of subjects and genres.  Read on to see how the season looks re-mastered and details of  the treasure trove of deleted scenes the CBS Digital team were able to find, available June 24th in North America.

I can’t wait to get my hands on all these remastered episodes. Unfortunately, I think it will be a long time as my budget just can’t…
