I hate to get my hopes too high, but it sure sounds like my kind of movie with good character development and good plot. I did not hate the previous film, but I was dissapointed in that I thought it could have been much better.

It is nice too, that this film is finally taking place in a post-X-Men: The Last Stand timeline. On the one hand, I like to pretend that third film does not exsist. But on the other, I’m tired of all the prequel stuff.

In any event, here is the video of Peter and Germain’s reaction.

Tom Hanks and Ron Howard, the star and director, respectively, of Sony’s first two tentpole movies based on Dan Brown’s novels, are returning for Inferno, we’ve learned. Hanks had been expected to reprise his role as Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon for The Lost Symbol, the third novel in Brown’s book series. But Howard had bowed out of that project, which is now on the back burner, saying he wanted to produce it with Brian Grazer and their Imagine Entertainment but not direct. Now we’re hearing he’ll return for Inferno.

Please make the madness stop! How can we get this movie to not…

Pre-release tracking has been notably soft for R.I.P.D. considering its $130 million production budget, and it could have a hard time fending off Summit’s adult action pic Red 2 and New Line’s low-budget horror entry The Conjuring. At this point, they are all tracking to open in the $17 million to $20 million range, although those projections could shift when final tracking is released Thursday.

The three movies begin rolling out on Thursday night, while DreamWorks Animation and 20th Century Fox’s Turbo opens Wednesday.

Turbo, looking to benefit from being an original story after…

Ahead of its debut, actor Ashton Kutcher has taken to the Q&A site Quora to explain why he chose to take on the role of Steve Jobs.

Choosing to take this role was very difficult. I greatly admire the work that Steve Jobs has done and have many friends and colleagues who knew and/or worked for Steve. So, when I read a screen play that was not entirely flattering to his character I had great reservations.  But I chose to take on the role for a couple reasons. 

1. I care. As I read the script I had a knot in my stomach. I imagined actors playing the role and not connecting to the love…

When asked about his role as Spock in J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek films, Quinto told the audience:

Star Trek 3 should be filming, I suppose, next year. It’s going to be made a lot quicker than the last one. That’s the plan, although nothing is confirmed yet.

Wow, if that’s true they are anxious to get this next film out the door. Of course I do think part of the reason Star Trek Into Darkness didn’t do as well as hoped is because it came so long after the first one and the hype had died down a bit. So maybe the momentum will help.

At one point in the interview, Quinto mentioned that…

I never saw the first one but apparently people liked it and it did well at the box office and all that jaz so they’re making a couple more. So since I don’t really know anything about it, I’ll just quote the official synopsis and embed the teaser below:

The thrilling second chapter of the epic How To Train Your Dragon trilogy brings back the fantastical world of Hiccup and Toothless five years later. While Astrid, Snoutlout and the rest of the gang are challenging each other to dragon races (the island’s new favorite contact sport), the now inseparable pair journey through the skies,…

Hey, guess what, I’m still not super interested or excited about this film. I’m not sure what the story is, it seems to lack cohesion. The only thing the trailer showcases is the humor. There does not seem to be any heart or story in this trailer. It’s just not adding up for me. I sure hope I’m wrong but something sure seems like it’s missing here.

Peter Jackson has announced that Martin Freeman has completed his shots for the next two “Hobbit” films and the filmmaker included two photos from the set.

“Tonight Martin Freeman finished his last shot as Bilbo Baggins. The end of an incredible two and a half years. I cannot imagine anyone else in this role - a character that Martin has nurtured and crafted with love and great skill.

Not huge or earth-shattering news or anything like that, but worth noting.

Previously, Kosinski expressed his desire for TRON 3 to take the TRON property to the next level of creative expression – when he said that he wants it to be “our ‘Empire Strikes Back’” – and additionally mentioned that the film is going to pick up in real-time after the conclusion to Legacy. That might’ve seemed like a red flag to some people, as having TR3N take place some five to six years after Legacy could allow the film to skimp on addressing the questions and ideas raised by the previous film’s conclusion – and there are definitely some major implications to the ending…
