While speaking with TV Guide about the upcoming Big Bang spot, she revealed that she, Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford are expecting to start working on J.J. Abrams’ Star Wars: Episode VII in March or April. Wha wha wha?! Not only that, she elaborated on the look she hopes to sport in the sequel:

“I’d like to wear my old [cinnamon buns] hairstyle again — but with white hair. I think that would be funny.”

Now, this is the closest thing we’ve seen to an actual confirmation to Fisher, Hamill and Ford appearing in Abrams’ Star Wars movie, even though the tea leaves have suggested the…

RoboCop is about to hit theaters so the last little bits of promo material are dropping on us now. You can check out the previous three trailers and my thoughts here, here, and here.

This film definitely has some interesting things going on and I’m excited to see if it’s any good. This time of year is not a great one for cinema but I’ll wait and see before I pass premature judgement. I think the themes promised in the trailers are worth checking out. It looks like there’s definitely an aspect of the war between man and machine going on and how the film presents this and answers these…

On the night of June 25th, 2005, a four-man Navy SEAL team - consisting of Lieutenant Michael Murphy, Sonar Technician 2nd Class Matthew “Axe” Axelson, Gunner’s Mate 2nd Class Danny Dietz, and Corpsman 1st Class Marcus Luttrell - is lowered via fast-rope into the Hindu Kush Mountains near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. Their mission: track and eliminate notorious Taliban leader Ahmad Shah.

Less than twenty four hours later, only one of those SEALs is left alive.

What went wrong? Goatherds. Local goatherds, who stumble across the team in the mountain brush. After confirming that the men…

Over the weekend, the LA Times reported something that many had expected, but hoped not to hear: that the first major studio — in this case, Paramount — was going all-digital and ending distribution of actual, physical film prints. Though they didn’t announce it at the time, “Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues” was the last Paramount film for which 35mm prints were shipped (way to go out on a high?), while “The Wolf of Wall Street” became their first all-digital affair (an irony, given that Martin Scorsese is a passionate defender of old formats and old filmstock). It also feels significant…

The fate of Paramount’s marquee spy franchise has been thrown into question following the soft debut of Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit at the North American box office, where the action thriller failed to connect with younger audiences unfamiliar with author Tom Clancy‘s iconic character.

Director Kenneth Branagh‘s reboot, starring 33-year-old actor Chris Pine and in a bid to relaunch the series, opened to a soft $18 million over the long Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. More than a third of the audience was over the age of 50, while only 15 percent was under 25, according to exit-polling service…

Because I don’t want Glass to distract me during the movie, I turn them off (but since my prescription lenses are on the frame, I still wear them). About an hour into the movie (Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit), a guy comes near my seat, shoves a badge that had some sort of a shield on it, yanks the Google Glass off my face and says “follow me outside immediately”. It was quite embarrassing and outside of the theater there were about 5-10 cops and mall cops. Since I didn’t catch his name in the dark of the theater, I asked to see his badge again and I asked what was the problem and I asked for my…

I shouldn’t need to tell you, but I will. What follows is a) unsubstantiated rumors, and b) if true, possibly massive spoilers for Batman vs Superman.

- The villains are Lex Luthor and Metallo 

- Batman forms a UN type deal to stop Superman from destroying another city 

- Aquaman is in it, but not called Aquaman. He’s there because the world engine in the ocean did something to the fish 

- Wonderwoman poses as a Wayne Enterprises investor to retrieve an item that belongs to her people. 

- Lex Luthor is in the shadows a lot, a manipulator. Not much face time with Superman. 

- Robin…

J.J. Abrams hit the Television Critics Association’s press tour Sunday to promote his upcoming NBC show Believe, and after his panel reporters pelted him with Star Wars: Episode VII questions. What did he say? Not much, but here’s what we got:

The script is done: “We’re working really hard and we’ve got our script and we’re in deep prep. Full steam ahead.”

What’s the length? Abrams wouldn’t go there. “I promise you it will be movie length.”

Well, whether good or bad, the script is done and we’ll know soon when it comes out in the coming eternity which way it will go.

Abrams says he…

If you want to see a film about vengence and violence, then Zack Snyder’s upcoming 300: Rise of an Empire may just be the right film for you.

Also, I never knew before the slow motion filmography could actually be its own character in a film, but it appears according to the trailer that Snyder has accomplished just that.

A lot of peopl really loved the first 300 film and it brought in a lot of money, so a sequel was inevitable. and it doesn’t look like an altogether bad sequel at that — at leaset not so far.
