According to ComingSoon.net, Fox’s Fantastic Four reboot will begin filming in Baton Rouge this March. Originally, the film was scheduled to begin shooting this past June in Vancouver. Recently, the film had its release date pushed back to June 19th, 2015 from its original release of March 6, 2015. There’s quite a bit of speculation that the push was to accommodate Michael B. Jordan’s filming schedule. It’s said that he’s director Josh Trank’s only choice for the Johnny Storm aka Human Torch. Miles Teller is said to be the frontrunner for Reed Richards aka Mr. Fantastic. There have been…

This trailer is set to a bit more, shall we say contemporary beat? than what we have previously seen for this film. I reckon they’re probably having a little bit of a hard time getting interest in this film and maybe some upbeat music will help. Well I’m guessing that’s what the thinking on this is anyway.

I am looking forward to it but I don’t think it’s coming to Nashville for a while. It’s going to a very limited release starting on November 29^th and doesn’t go to a wide release until Christmas — which is just annoying. Whatever. I’ll watch it whenever I can finally see it.

Yeah okay, so I’m being somewhat tongue in cheek with my headline. Which one of you would have actually thought that R2-D2 would not be in the new film. I mean it’s pretty much a given. But at least we can say, yep, it’s a given. That’s because JJ Abrams tweeted out a photo of him standing with the awesome little droid.

It’s not earth shattering or anything but it’s still fun. They’re actually making new Star Wars kind of fun. And hopefully it’s going to be better than those awful prequel things that we don’t acknowledge the existence of.

Russell Crowe, Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly, and Anthony Hopkins are teaming together to tell us the biblical story of Noah and his ark building adventure.

As a Bible believing Christian, I am particularly interested in what they are doing here. It certainly looks like they are taking a lot of liberties with what actually happened. But then, there’s not a whole lot of extra info in the text about what happened. We’re told that men were evil, God told Noah to build an ark, and the flood was sent. So there’s going to be a lot of reading between the lines here for a feature length film. And I…

We’ve already talked about how you should probably run for your lives and not watch this because it’s a Young Adult film adaptation and I like it. My track record isn’t spotless here (*cough*CityofBones*cought*). That said, I do think this has some potential to be interesting.

This film is based on the book by Veronica Roth and I admitedly know nothing about it. It has a long list of semi-known and unknown stars such as Shailene Woodley, Kate Winslet, Theo James, Miles Teller, Maggie Q, Jai Courtney, Zoe Kravitz, Ray Stevenson, and Ashley Judd.

Here’s the official synopsis:

Divergent” is…

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to pay for the fifth time to see the further adventure installments of Ethan Hunt. Yep, Paramount has set a date for “Mission Impossible 5,” which is now scheduled for a Christmas 2015 release. Currently, its only direct competition is Ben Affleck’s directorial effort, “They Live By Night,” but of course, “Star Wars: Episode VII,” opens the weekend before and will presumably be a box-office juggernaut for at least a few weeks afterwards (everyone thus assumes the same-day-dated Duncan Jones’ “Warcraft” is probably going to have to move to…

The first trailer I saw for this film had a particularly sort of almost indy quality about it. I’m not sensing that in this trailer.

I’m still undecided about whether I think this film will be any good or whether it’s just going to have a lot of blood guts and gore and not a really good story behind it. They certainly want us to think they’ve got a good story, and maybe there’s one there. But it’s definitely going to be violent. It does have quite the cast: Christian Bale, Zoe Saldana, Woody Harrelson, and Willem Dafoe. Ridley Scott is also producing (though he just turned out a stinker with…

Who is Disney’s most evil villain? I’m sure I don’t know (Ursala comes to mind though), but Maleficent is probably way up there. And certainly, even just looking at her silhouette brings a chill to one’s spine.

That being said, I’m not sure if I needed a live action version of Maleficent on the big screen. But we’re going to get one anyway. And it looks like Angelina Jolie is up to the task. Granted we didn’t get much of a look at her, but she certainly seems to fit the role.

Here’s the synopsis and trailer:

“Maleficent,” the untold story of Disney’s most iconic villain from the 1959…

In an article released by The Hollywood Reporter earlier this fall titled “Summer Box Office Fallout: Studios’ New Fear of the $200 Million Tentpole” there was a little bit about Trek 3′s (and the previous Trek movie’s) production costs.

...

Paramount also will look to save money on another Star Trek — a franchise, but not quite in the top tier. This summer’s $190 million production Star Trek Into Darkness has earned over $462 million worldwide; its international haul has exceeded expectations at $234 million, but domestically, its $228.5 million hasn’t matched the first film. Whereas…
