‘The Flintstones’ Animated Feature Coming From Will Ferrell and Adam McKay

‘The Flintstones’ Animated Feature Coming From Will Ferrell and Adam McKay
Edward Davis — The Playlist

Because Will Ferrell had such a successful time adapting “Land Of the Lost,” he’s now teaming up with buddy Adam McKay to (exec) produce a new animated version of “The Flintstones.”

To be fair, Ferrell didn’t produce or help develop “Land Of The Lost,” but that stone-age comedy was slapped with a PG-13 rating and bombed hard back in 2009. And now “The Flintstones” seems to be headed towards a PG-rating.

A full-length animated feature, THR reports that Ferrell and McKay are executive producing a version of “The Flintstones” for Warner Bros. via their Gary Sanchez shingle. The project is…

‘Maleficent’ TV Spot Featuring On-The-Nose Voiceover

‘Maleficent’ TV Spot Featuring On-The-Nose Voiceover

Goodness, someone needs to tell Disney that they’re being a little bit disrespectful of their prospective audience at this point. It’s like, “we don’t think you’ve been getting the message we’ve been sending so let us explain it all to you like your a 5 year old kid.

This is the first trailer or TV spot from this film that I have not really enjoyed.

Marc Webb Names His Villain(s) for ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 3’

Marc Webb Names His Villain(s) for ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 3’
Alex Maidy — JoBlo

With THE SINISTER SIX and VENOM movies already on their way to the big screen, the question will be if the bad guy in THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 3 will connect to one of those movies or be an all new foe for the hero.

During an interview with Comic Book.com, director Marc Webb was asked which villain he would like to tackle next. His answer was not surprising given what we know about the next films in development but should serve as a positive sign for fans of the comic book series.

“Kraven,” Webb replied. “Kraven. I like the idea of Kraven. The Vulture. Ock. I always thought the idea of…

‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ Clip from ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ Credits

‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’ Clip from ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ Credits

One of the things that made seeing The Amazing Spider-Man 2 most worth my while was seeing an action sequence from the upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past. I’m not really sure how Sony got roped in to doing the promotional work for Twentieth Century Fox but I loved seeing it. I continue to be more and more confident that this upcoming X-Men film is exactly what I’ve been wanting from the franchise for many years. And hopefully with the time travel stuff going on, we can just wipe X-Men: The Last Stand from existence — it’s just too bad we can’t wipe it from our memories as well.

The trouble…

‘Gotham’ Trailer

‘Gotham’ Trailer

I’m really tired of the prequels and origin stories, guys. That said, this does look kind of interesting. It has obvious similarities to the original story we saw for Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins and quite obvious differences — not unlike (I can’t believe I’m about to make this comparison) with Lois and Clark (believe me, that caused me as much or more pain than you) did with Superman where there were obvious similarities and obvious differerences from the origin story given to us in Superman: The Movie. And it sure looks like, unlike Lois and Clark, Gotham, will actually be good — as well as…

A REALLY Good Look at Godzilla

A REALLY Good Look at Godzilla

We had a pretty good look at the beast in the last trailer, but this clip really lingers and shows Godzilla in all his glory.

The weird thing about this clip though, is the flying thing which does not appear to be Godzilla (I would think he’d be too heave to fly anyway). Admitedly I know nothing (as in, quite litterally, NOTHING) about Godzilla, and so I have no idea what this flying dragon like animal is and if he/she is new or if I should already know what it is.

Anyway, here’s your close up:

Now, with an exciting future filled with new cinematic installments of Star Wars, all aspects ofStar Wars storytelling moving forward will be connected.

“We have an unprecedented slate of new Star Wars entertainment on the horizon,” said Kennedy. “We’re set to bring Star Wars back to the big screen, and continue the adventure through games, books, comics, and new formats that are just emerging. This future of…

New ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Trailer

New ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Trailer

Rebbots are the thing right now. Every studio is rummaging around in their chest of wonders for something to bring back tot he screen. Who needs original content anymore? We’ve got things to reboot. To be sure, some of the reboots have made me very happy, and some, not so much.

I am quite certain this one will dissapoint me, but that’s not because I have some affinity for the Turtles. Indeed, I can barely remember the cartoon and I’ve never seen the movie. No, I have little confidence in this film because Michael Bay is involved and I haven’t like much of anything he’s ever been invovled… Read The Rest

Young Mystique Has Her Fighting Style Down in Clip from ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’

Young Mystique Has Her Fighting Style Down in Clip from ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’

Bolivar Trask has a defense against the mutants, and apparnetly a way to detect them as well. But that doesn’t do him much good in this clip — Mystique is quite as good a fighter as she’s ever been and she takes a few people out. And this is exactly what I would expect to see from Bryan Singer. He loved these Mystique scenes and it’s choreographed the way I remember from the original X-Men films. It’s great stuff and I can’t way for the film to arrive on the 23rd!

Our Best Look at ‘Godzilla’ Yet

Our Best Look at ‘Godzilla’ Yet

They’ve slowly and oh so carefully been giving us a peak at Godzilla, but the latest trailer opens up the kimono just a little bit wider and we get a pretty good look at this terror inspiring monster.

I’ve been known to be pretty skeptical of pure monster movies — I thought that Pacific Rim looked like a silly monster fest, and I was wrong about that one. So I’m going to assume that maybe this could be good. And I freely admit to not knowing much about Godzilla in the first place. So I’m looking forward to getting into it. And the release date is right upon us since it comes to theaters on…
