Blooper Reel for ‘The Lego Movie’

Blooper Reel for ‘The Lego Movie’

Who would have thought that an animated film could have a blooper reel, eh? Well all good films have blooper reels so since this is a good movie, I reckon they thought it needed a good blooper reel.

As far as I understand, the sound bite are actual bloopers and outtakes and mess ups. The decided to get creative and animate the characters around it. Hilarity ensues.

Dead or Alive, You’re Seeing a Movie! — What to See This Weekend

Dead or Alive, You’re Seeing a Movie! — What to See This Weekend

I had hoped to have seen the original RoboCop by the time I wrote this article this weekend so I could have a better idea of what I was in for and a more well informed opinion. Alas, between Netflix playing stupid with the disk, and it not being available for instant watch, that hasn’t happened. It is available for digital rental on Amazon, so I reckon I’ll do that (probably tonight) before I see the remake this weekend at the box office.

RoboCop — PG-13

I can’t say I’m particularly excited about this film. I was not allowed to watch the original given that it came out when I was five…

‘R.I.P.D’ Director to Helm ‘Divergent’ Sequel ‘Insurgent’

‘R.I.P.D’ Director to Helm ‘Divergent’ Sequel ‘Insurgent’
Kevin Jagernauth — The Playlist

Summit are really confident that everyone is going to see their big, juicy YA adaptation “Divergent” next month. Or they’re at least hoping that their confidence and premature announcement that a sequel is coming will encourage audiences to a buy a ticket. Either way, they’re making plans so that they’re prepared when “Divergent” becomes an (inevitable?) hit film. And they are pinning their hopes on the guy who directed “R.I.P.D.” to keep the franchise moving.

Yep, Robert Schwentke has bounced back from directing one of 2013’s biggest financial bombs and critical failures to get the gig…

“We start filming the next Avengers film at the end of March,” said Feige in the latest issue of Total Film mag’. ”[Black] Widow’s part in that is very big. We learn more about her past and learn more about where she came from and how she became in that film. The notion of exploring that even further in her own film would be great, and we have some development work with that.”

“We wanted to change the dynamic of the cinematic universe with this film,” said Feige of Captain America: The Winter Soldier“We wanted Cap and really the entire cinematic universe to be very different at the end of…

‘Transcendence’ Trailer

‘Transcendence’ Trailer

Ooo, this looks really good.

You might not have heard of the director of this film, Wally Pfister (or perhaps you have), but you have almost certainly seen his work as a cinematographer under Christopher Noaln on films like Batman BeginsThe Dark KnightThe Dark Knight Rises, and Inception, to name a few. Now he’s stepping out and making a film of his own. I was skeptical of this film from the things I was hearing until I saw this trailer. But now I am totally in!

The story follows one, Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) who seeks to create sentient machines. This of course brings out the…

4 Clips from ‘Non-Stop’ Starring Liam Neeson

4 Clips from ‘Non-Stop’ Starring Liam Neeson

I’m having a hard time not looking forward to this film even though I kind of think it might not be any good. I mean it is being released in February which tells me the studio has no confidence in it. At the same time, it looks like it might be a mildly diverting little thriller. And it’s starring Liam Neeson. Who’s not up for that?

I hope it’s worth seeing because I have vague plans of seeing it.

Spaceship!

Spaceship!

Be careful! Chad might unleash “The Kragle”! In this episode we find out that no one is going to be taken in ‘Taken 3’. Seems like maybe they want to think about a name change then, doesn’t it? Of course Joe, having written a review of ‘Taken 2: Please Take it Back’ has something to say about all this. We also now know the start date of the principle photography for ‘Star Wars VII’. Joe may not be too excited about this, but Chad and TJ are. And then, Chad and Joe get all excited about ‘Back to the Future — The Musical’ coming in 2015. Yeah, they’re geeks. And before diving into the primary review of ‘The LEGO Movie’ the stupidity of Fox News Hosts must be discussed because it directly relates to ‘The LEGO Movie’. And the consensus on said film is that it was quite awesome.

Fox Anchor Dislikes ‘The LEGO Movie’

Fox Anchor Dislikes ‘The LEGO Movie’

The LEGO Movie may be a smash hit as it participated in the capitalist system of film and movies, but that doesn’t matter to this intrepid Fox anchor. As a matter of fact it kind of upsets him because of how anti-capitalistic the film is. I mean, just look at the name of the villain, it’s Lord Business. Therefore, the filmmakers are villainizing business and all of capitalism. Now that’s some deep analysis right there. That’s the sort of stuff that keeps me up at night worrying about what the Hollywood machine will turn out next. Maybe the next movie will feature Lord Capital, then their evil…
