The UK release of J.J. Abrams‘ Star Trek Into Darkness has officially been moved up by a week to May 9 when it will go out in IMAX 3D, 3D and 2D cinemas. Paramount currently has the film set for a May 17 release in the States with IMAX 3D screenings on May 15. The shift has led some to wonder if the U.S. date may move to May 9 as well, but then what would happen to all those Super Bowl viewers who unlocked movie tickets for special early showings on the 15th? Simon Pegg, who plays Scotty in the film, just tweeted: “Looks like Star Trek Into Darkness will land in the UK first. Release date…

Still don’t know if this will be any good, but my interest is picking up a bit. A lot of star power has been brought to bear here as well with voices from Amanda Seyfried, Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, Christoph Waltz, Beyoncé, Pitbull, Steven Tyler, Judah Friedlander, Aziz Ansari, and Blake Anderson.

The film is set to premiere on June 13.

Watch the first minute from the mid-season premiere right now, along with a few comments from executive producer J.J. Abrams and creator Eric Kripke.

Warning, of course there may be some spoilers here, although I think everyone knew that the first minute of the mid-season premiere, picking up from were we left off in the cliffhanger mid-season finale, would work out pretty much this way. But it does leave us with yet another cliff hanger.

Anyway, I’m calling safe to watch, even if you are avoiding spoilers. But some people may not agree.

Man this sounds really great! I cannot wait to hear it all. It is somewhat reminicent of the TRON: Legacy soundtrack, and in my mind, that’s a good thing. I love Legacy’s soundtrack.

Apparently, M83 mastermind Anthony Gonzalez is socring Oblivion with TRON: Uprising composer Joseph Trapanese so I suppose it should not be a surprise that there’s a bit of influence from TRON.

Give it a listen, it sounds great!

“Why wouldn’t Tony Stark just call The Avengers if he’s having a problem in Iron Man 3?” It’s a questions fans have been asking for months in anticipation of the first film of Marvel Phase 2, out May 3rd.

Good question.

It’s a good question, and it’s sort of half and half. I am betting that like the comics you don’t have to keep – if you are reading a standalone “Iron Man” comic, they don’t spend every page explaining where every other Marvel hero is. The audience kind of accepts that there are times when they’re on their own and there are times when they are together. I’m betting…

Interview 101, don’t talk about yourself, you’re here to talk with and about your subject. This guy needs to figure that out. But it still makes for hilarity. And Mila handles it in stride. Actually, she seems thrilled to be talking about something other than herself and her films.

Oh yeah, and is it football or soccer?

Of course, I almost have to wonder if this whole thing was staged and the kid wasn’t really nervous and completely screwing up because you think someone would have stepped in at some point. And he didn’t really seem that nervous actually. Ah well, watch it anyway.

I hope enough time has passed that you feel comfortable talking about Spider-Man 4, which was in preproduction and began casting but fell apart before shooting began. What happened there?
It really was the most amicable and undramatic of breakups: It was simply that we had a deadline and I couldn’t get the story to work on a level that I wanted it to work. I was very unhappy with Spider-Man 3, and I wanted to make Spider-Man 4 to end on a very high note, the best Spider-Man of them all. But I couldn’t get the script together in time, due to my own failings, and I said to Sony, “I don’t…

This weekend’s opulent 3D fantasia “Oz, The Great And Powerful,” directed by former “Spider-Man” directorSam Raimi, is one of Disney‘s biggest movies of the year – a dreamy, technologically advanced marvel that cost $200 million to produce and god knows how much to market. And while this is the latest film from the Mouse House to flirt with the “Wizard of Oz” mythos (originally developed in a series of best-selling fantasy novels by American author L. Frank Baum), it is far from the first. In fact, Disney has been doggedly pursuing the world of Oz, to varying degrees of success, since the…

Hey movie fans, we’re going to be climbing that beanstalk up into the land of the giants on our live broadcast this evening and we’d love for you to join us and contribute in the chatroom, or even just enjoy listening.

I don’t know about Joe, but I’m going to be talking about how good this film is, why I like it, and muse about why in the world critics are panning it. It should be great fun. Even if you didn’t like the film, be sure to tune in and throw popcorn at your screen speakers, and offer up your disagreements via the live chatroom and we might even address them.

Below is the…
