“I think it would be really interesting with the age-old Batman/Superman conflict,” Cavill told SFX, “because they are two different sides of the same coin and their methods are entirely different. And I think it would actually make for an interesting story as to why, first of all, they were going head to head and how. I think that would make a great story.”

When asked if this is actually a possibility, Cavill replied:

“Who knows, I’m sure there’s all sorts of ideas being thrown around at Warner Bros right now.”

It “could” be interesting, and I’m given to understand that in…

On the podcast last night (find the episode here) where Joe and I talked with Anthony Pascale about Star Trek Into Darkness got me to thinking about this so I wanted to write a bit more about it.

Star Trek Into Undies

There is a scene you may remember from the more recent trailers, and the same scene is of course in the movie, which features the beautiful Alice Eve. If you came here to see pictures, I’m sorry. I am not going to exploit Alice Eve in the same way Star Trek did.

Alice Eve is beautiful and attractive under any ordinary circumstances, but in the scene in question, she is…

So just what is it that makes a good Star Trek film? I’m sure I don’t fully and completely understand the magic that makes any film a really good film, but I will say that most of it is wrapped up in Star Trek Into Darkness. Not only is it a good Star Trek film, but it’s a good film. For me, this is a turn around from J.J. Abrams’ 2009 installment, simply titled Star Trek. I did not feel that film was a good film, nor did I feel that it was a good Star Trek film.

A word about Spoilers

You should be forewarned that I cannot write this review without spoilers. I simply cannot. If you have…

There was very little doubt that Star Trek Into Darkness would take the top spot in domestic Box Office Sales. And even though it missed the projection a little, it’s nothing to sneeze at.

#1 - Star Trek Into Darkness

Budget: $190 Million
Totals: $70.5 Million Opening Weekend / $84 Million Current Domestic Total / $80.5 Million Current Foreign Total / $164,591,000 Worldwide Total
Week Number: 1 (domestically)

So this film did well on it’s first domestic weekend, even if it missed the studio’s projection slightly. They projected $80 to $100 Million, it opened to $70 Million this…

Oh, let’s see, I don’t know but maybe YOU SHOULD SEE STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS THIS WEEKEND! But it’s not big deal if you don’t…

Oh who am I kidding, I will never speak to you again if you do not!

New This Weekend

Star Trek Into Darkness - PG-13
I greatly enjoyed this film and liked it a lot better than J.J.‘s first installment in the reboot of this franchise. I gave my preliminary report of the film over here, and we’ll be talking about it on The MovieByte Podcast this coming Wednesday at 6:30 PM Central Time, so you’ll want to see it this weekend to get up to date for that…

Warner Bros has been rumored to be reimagining Superman’s best friend Jimmy Olsen as a woman for its reboot.

A source previously told Comic Book Movie that the character will actually be Jimmy Olsen’s sister and not a gender-swapped version of the classic character.

Warner Bros is yet to comment on which rumor about the character is true.

I’ve previously mentioned the possibility/likelihood of this back in January. I don’t have a lot of opinion to add except that I’m more or less ambivalent about it. As long as it’s a good character, well written, well acted, and well integrated, I…

“I wouldn’t ask too much of her, you can’t repeat the past”

“Can’t repeat the past? Why of course you can!”

Let me make a confession old sport: I have not read the book, the only thing I know about the story is from the 1974 film version staring Robert Redford. I really, REALLY did not like that film. But let me be clear, unless there are some fundamental differences between the book and both film portrayals I have seen thus far, I really do not like the story, or rather, the perspective that the story represents. It’s a rather subtle thing, actually. But before I get to that, let me…

I know absolutely nothing about Arrested Development, but I’m posting this trailer because the story of how a season 4 has come to be is interesting. Until now it has practically been unheard of for a TV show to return after being canceled for several years. And yet, here we are, and Netflix is just breaking all the rules. It is definitely a very interesting phenomenon. What is especially interesting is that they were able to get the band back together. One of the most prominent reasons (at least the reasons given to us) why it is so hard to ever put a series back together is that getting…

“We’ve devoted serious time and attention to revisiting the origins of Star Wars as inspiration for our process on the new movie, and I’m thrilled that returning to the UK for production and utilizing the incredible talent there can be a part of that,” said Kathleen Kennedy, President of Lucasfilm. “Speaking from my own longstanding connection to the UK with films like Raiders of the Lost Ark, Empire of the Sun and recently War Horse, it’s very exciting to be heading back.”

If there’s truth to this statement about revisiting the origins of Star Wars as being their inspiration, and it’s…
