I really want to push how we use the 3-D. Especially since we pushed the movie date, I want to fulfill the promise to the fans that the 3-D will be great, and enhances the experience of the movie. So every step of the way, I’m in that room, watching… It’s hurting my eyes, but we’re getting it better, and pushing it further.

Sigh. I think I’ll be watching this film in 2D. 3D still seems so gimmicky to me, especially when the film wasn’t shot for 3D. I liked the first film well enough but this doesn’t give me a lot of hope for the second film.

On Thursday, November 29th selected cinemas across the US and Canada will present two remastered episodes of TNG. The episodes include “Q Who” and the world premiere of the extended cut of “The Measure of a Man”, which will include an additional 13 minutes of footage.

I’m thinking about going to this just for the fun of it. Season 2 may have only been marginally better than season 1 (I believe I have said before on this site that TNG didn’t really start cranking out good episodes consistently until season 3), but the two they picked for this event are pretty fantastic and I would love…

Matthew Vaughn has decided not to direct the sequel to20th Century Fox‘s hit spinoff X-Men: First Class. Ready for the next shocker? Atop the studio’s replacement short list is Bryan Singer, who launched the X-Men feature franchise with the first two superb films and who has been a guiding influence in this spinoff by writing the treatment and producing. If this works out, Singer and Vaughn would essentially be switching roles. Vaughn, who wrote the treatment for the sequel for X-Men: Days Of Future Past that was scripted by Simon Kinberg, would step back to produce the film with Kinberg…

Winrich Kolbe, director of nearly fifty segments of the 1980s-1990s Star Trek series, including the two-part final episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, has died at the age of 71.  Kolbe, who retired from directing in 2003, had left a teaching post at the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2007, apparently due to illness.  His death, noted in the memoriam column of the November DGA Monthly, was not reported by any major news source or Star Trek fan outlet.  A family member, reached by telephone on Tuesday, confirmed that Kolbe died in late September but could provide few other…

Joss Whedon has recruited ER alumna Ming-Na Wenfor one of the leads in his ABC drama pilot Marvel’s S.H.I.E.L.D., which he is co-writing and directing. The project, from Marvel TV and ABC TV Studios, is based on a peacekeeping group found in both the comic book and feature film universes, including the blockbuster 2012 movie The Avengers.Ming-Na will play Agent Melinda May. Soulful and slightly damaged by her combat experiences, Melinda is an ace pilot, a weapons expert and a soldier who can — and has — gone beyond the call of duty. The character was originally listed on the pilot’s…

So, Haas is now finishing the second draft of the script together with his writing partner Michael Brandt, and as I mentioned up above, the movie will center on McAvoy’s character Wesley who’s now (and that’s like four years later) recruiting a young woman who is in his situation in the first movie.

No no no no no no no no no…

I. Do. Not. WANT. This. Movie. Seriously, Wanted was a horrible, horrible film and I do not see how a sequel to such a terrible movie could be any better. Hey, I’ve got an idea: call me crazy, but why don’t we focus on making some good films, creating new and…

Alcatraz: The Complete Series DVD

When San Francisco Detective Rebecca Madsen (Sarah Jones) is assigned to a grisly murder, a fingerprint leads her to an Alcatraz inmate who died over 30 years ago. Once the enigmatic government agent Emerson Hauser (Sam Neill) tries to impede her investigation, Madsen turns to Alcatraz expert Dr. Diego “Doc” Soto (Jorge Garcia), to help her piece together the inexplicable sequence of events.

While Marvel has recently released official plot descriptions for Iron Man 3 and Thor: The Dark World, they’re both filled with lots of double speak. Sweeping claims that give absolutely no specifics about the characters or situations in the movie. This, of course, is by design because most people don’t want to read spoilers so far removed from the film’s release, especially when each movie is still shooting.

But there are the intrepid few who eat up spoilers like candy and an insider let a bunch of new details slip regarding the next two Marvel movies. Andrew Lawden, an actor and Marvel…

Steven Spielberg was interviewed for 60 Minutes in honor of his upcoming film release. While his life story, his relationship with his parents, and his approach to filmmaking which borrows from his childhood are certainly…
