Die Hard Marathon Trailer

Die Hard Marathon Trailer

Want to see all the Die Hard films in theater? You are so in luck. For one day only, they’re coming. And we’ve got a trailer here to let you know about it too.

Seriously, I’m tempted to see at least the first one. I was like six years old when it came out. Consequently I did not see it in theater.

Is Cumberbatch Playing Robert April?

The release of the first issue of a three-part prequel comic to Star Trek Into Darkness has lent some credence to the theory that the true villain of JJ Abram’s upcoming movie is not Khan or Gary Mitchell, but rather Robert April, the very first captain of the Starship Enterprise.  

HitFix’s Drew McWeeny first raised the idea late last year after Abrams’ Bad Robot held a press day for the feature, which hits theaters in May, and now Brandon Connelly at Bleeding Cool has posted panels from the prequel comic which feature April.

‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ - Be Prepared to Cry

‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ - Be Prepared to Cry

J.J. Abrams, Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, and Benedict Cumberbatch are talking up Star Trek Into Darkness in this video from MTV. One tidbit:

The goal of this movie is to make you cry. If the movie does its job, then by the end of the movie, you will have had a reaction involving the eyes. If the movie works, then there’s definitely an emotional component.

And Zachary Quinto thinks some fans might have reason to worry about their favorite characters:

There’s reason to worry, let’s say that much. The enemy that we face in this movie played by Benedict Cumberbatch is entirely…

Honest Trailer for ‘Kingdom of the Crystal Skull’

Honest Trailer for ‘Kingdom of the Crystal Skull’

If there was ever a film that deserved the Honest Trailer treatment, it’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Ugh. 5 years later and I still want a refund.

Boy you said it trailer dude. My only complaint is that it’s just not quite the same with this new voice over guy. I miss the old one. Still, I got more than a few giggles out of this one.

9 Things We Want from Marvel’s ‘S.H.I.E.L.D.’

9 Things We Want from Marvel’s ‘S.H.I.E.L.D.’
SuperHeroHype

Production on Marvel’s S.H.I.E.L.D., Marvel Studios’ first live action television series, is set to begin very soon. As of now, only a pilot has been ordered for the show, but it has gotten a head start on production over other pilots commissioned by ABC and executives will likely have a decision about it before any other new pilots, plus Joss Whedon is already working on stories for additional episodes.

Though it’s not a guarantee at this point, I think it’s a safe bet to assume this will be picked up to series and go on to be a pretty huge hit. The idea of doing a weekly series based…

TV Line’s ‘Fringe’ Series Finale Recap

TV Line’s ‘Fringe’ Series Finale Recap
TV Line

Warning: The following contains massive and dynamic spoilers from the Fringe series finale.

For a moment there, as the Fringe series finale barreled toward a close, you thought it might play out another way.

But it didn’t.

Fun read, with thoughts and observations at the end. I voted for option B in the poll at the bottom. I was not completely blown away with the Series Finale, but I did think it was well above average. I’ve seen a lot of seriously stupid series finales, and this wasn’t one of them. Nothing can quite top the series finale for Stargate SGI, but I was satisfied with…

Depending on whom you ask, most members of the Fringe team have a lot to say — or at least hint at — when it comes to summing up the series finale airing Friday night. But if you ask Joshua Jackson, he boils it down to one word.

But more on that in a bit.

A fun read for Fringe fans such as myself. It’s about a 3 minute read, and there’s a slideshow of photos from the series finale at the end of the article.

Watch: Featurette from ‘Les Misérables’

Watch: Featurette from ‘Les Misérables’

Take a quick little trip behind the scenes of Les Mis with Director Tom Hooper.

While not long, this featurette is interesting and worth taking a moment to watch. It’s about two minutes, and it shows the film crew working their way through the foothills of the Alps, managing their gear, the camera, and all that while it’s freezing cold. But man did they get some nice looking shots!

Jon Polito Comments on NYT ‘Gangster Squad’ Review

Jon Polito Comments on NYT ‘Gangster Squad’ Review
Huffington Post

New York Times film critic A.O. Scott is probably used to actors taking issue with his negative reviews. Last year, “Marvel’s The Avengers” star Samuel L. Jackson blasted Scott’s dismissal of the comic blockbuster by airing his grievances on Twitter. “NY Times critic AO Scott needs a new job!” Jackson tweeted.

Now another actor has come out against Scott’s barbs—though without as much vitriol as Jackson.

Jon Polito, a character actor famous for his parts in the Coen brothers’ films “Miller’s Crossing” and “The Big Lebowski,” left a comment on Scott’s pan of “Gangster Squad.” Polito has…

‘Die Hard’ Theater Run

‘Die Hard’ Theater Run
/Film

When we first met John McClane in 1988, he was just an everyman cop trying to help his wife and her colleagues out of an office building. But oh, how things have changed. Each installment of the Die Hard franchise has gone bigger than the last, and number five, A Good Day to Die Hard, is no exception. McClane travels to Russia not only to save his son, but, apparently, to defend democracy itself.

In real life, we saw that progression unfold over two and a half decades. But next month, you can relive it in just a matter of hours. Fox has announced that it will bring all four previous…
