This one is looking mighty good to me. I’m so ready for more good films. Captain Phillips and Gravity have spoiled me now and I want all my films to be good for the rest of the year (we’ve really had a bummer of a summer as far as I’m concerned, or at least it sure seems that way).

In this new clip from the upcoming film, things get a little bit intense with a crowd of black folks, while the white soldiers train guns on them. Eventually, one fires into the crowd, several more shots are fired. And then we see Idris Elba burning what is apparently his papers of citizenship? I’m given to…

Briefly: Christopher Cantwell and Christopher C. Rodgers, writers of the upcoming AMC series Halt & Catch Fire, have written a new action-thriller script that now has Oblivionand Tron Legacy director Joseph Kosinski set to direct. In fact, Kosinski came up with the story, and then had the screenwriting pair flesh out the script. (Similar to the manner in which Oblivion was developed.)

Providing the money will be Media Rights Capital, the same outfit that financed Elysium and that has been backing some of David Fincher’s recent work, among many other projects.

I’m keeping my eyes open for…

I am really not liking the look of this. This is not the Jack Ryan we might remember. This is a retconned version. This looks more like a cousin to the Jason Bourne films than anything — which really just irritates me more than anything else. Jack Ryan was never a superstar hero. But, whatever. I’m sure I’ll watch it and even enjoy it on some level. But some part of me will be sad. This is not the film I thought we would get.

Here’s the summary:

The story follows him from 9/11, through his tour of duty in Afghanistan, which scarred him forever, and into his early days in the Financial…

Let the 75^th annual Hunger Games begin! Well, in 36 days anyway. And I’m looking forward to this one a lot. This outing is directed by Francis Lawrence and he’s already said he’s ditching the whole frenetic crazy camera thing. That’s great news as far as I’m concerned.

I really like the story even in I felt the ending could have been a bit stronger. And who knows, maybe they’ll do something a little better with the ending in the films. We’ll see. But I think this film is going to shape up to be a better film than the first one. Just a hunch.

Check out the TV spot:

Our dear Asguardian prince will be battling it out with a new (to me anyway) enemy on November 8^th. His name is Malekith the Accursed and he’s leader of the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim (do not ask me how to pronouce that for I have no idea). Malekith is played by Christopher Eccleston who I am given to understand is a Doctor Who alum, so you Whovians can go ahead and geek out if you like.

This clip really doesn’t offer any insight into anything other than the fact that apparently, something is awakening Malekith (and his people?).

Go ahead and have a look.

Nope. Stil lnot feeling it. I still can’t muster an ounce of care. It looks silly and hokey and cheesey, etc. But I seem to be the only one. A lot of you seem to be looking foward to this one. So I post this trailer for you.

The film opens on Christmas Day. I sure won’t be seeing it on Christmas Day. I’ll be opening presents with my family and spending time with them!

But enjoy, if you must:

If I could have one small sliver of information today about Star Wars Episode VII, it would be the title. Three or four simple words could give fans months of fuel for speculation. It’s not too much to ask, is it? Well considering most of the other Star Wars titles weren’t revealed until much closer to release, we probably shouldn’t hold our breaths.

Still, George Lucas apparently had two such titles in mind when he conceived the film and sold it to Disney, and those have now been revealed. Plus, with the recent news he and J.J. Abrams have been talking a lot about the film, maybe these…

It’s no secret that WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange, aren’t exactly crazy about Bill Condon’s WikiLeaks film The Fifth Estate. Last month, the anti-secrecy organization leaked a copy of the film’s script alongside a memo that called Condon’s movie “irresponsible, counterproductive and harmful.” WikiLeaks announced the memo with a tweet that briefly and critically appraises the movie — “As WikiLeaks was never consulted about the upcoming Hollywood film on us, we’ve given our advice for free: It’s bad.”

This week, WikiLeaks has thrown more fuel on the fire by posting a letter from…

With Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy and this summer’s Man of Steel, composer Hans Zimmer has now had the chance to write music for arguably the two most popular comics characters in the world: Batman and Superman.  Now that Zack Snyder has decided to bring a new Batman into the fold for the Man of Steel follow-up, Zimmer is faced with the decision of whether to revisit the Dark Knight or step aside and let someone else tackle the character.

“It’s creating a bit of a problem in my head right now.  Quite honestly, I’ve gotta sit down with Zack and have a chat with him about…
