Watch Seven Minutes Of Behind-The-Scenes B-Roll From ‘Star Trek Into Darkness’ By Germain Lussier/May 6, 2013 2:20 pm EST Most of us will never get to visit a J.J. Abrams set. The director is simply too protective about his work to let anyone not directly involved with the production linger as cameras roll. Thankfully, Paramount has released a seven-minute video from the set of Star Trek Into Darkness that puts the viewer right on the bridge of the Enterprise....

‘Argo,’ ‘Django Unchained,’ Brave,’ ‘Zero Dark Thirty:’ Here Are The Rest Of Mondo’s 2013 Oscar Posters By Germain Lussier/Feb. 25, 2013 8:00 am EST While most of the world was watching Seth McFarlane and the drama of the Academy Awards Sunday night, poster fans were refreshing Twitter waiting for Mondo to drop the rest of their 2013 Oscar posters. Last week they revealed posters for nominees Les Miserables, Paranorman and The Master....

‘E.T. 2’ Trailer: “ET-X: Extinction” By Peter Sciretta/Feb. 22, 2011 11:30 am EST Those of you following along will recall that we posted a fan created trailer for E.T. 2 in Friday’s edition of Page 2. That trailer was a mash-up of scenes from Steven Spielberg’s War of the Worlds and E.T. Christopher Campbell has discovered another fan created E.T. sequel trailer – this one is longer, more-fleshed out and better edited....

‘Interstellar’ Website Goes Live By Russ Fischer/Dec. 11, 2013 8:44 pm EST Briefly: That image above is the first real thing we’ve got to represent Christopher Nolan’s new film Interstellar. With the trailer coming soon (tomorrow night in front of The Hobbit, we’re told, and probably online right around the same time) you can bet we’ll have a lot more in the next few days. For now you can watch the official website, or subscribe to the Facebook or Twitter feeds, which will hopefully soon offer something more than that stark logo....

‘Journey 3’ And ‘4’ Now In Development; Dwayne Johnson To Return By Germain Lussier/Aug. 14, 2014 5:00 pm EST If you were hoping for more family friendly Dwayne Johnson action movies, today is your lucky day. New Line Cinema has hired writers to do not one, but two sequels in the Journey to the Center of the Earth franchise, each of which will be headlined by Johnson. Chad and Carey Hayes, who co-wrote The Conjuring, have been brought on to write Journey 3 and Journey 4, sequels to the 2008 film Journey to the Center of the Earth and its 2012 follow-up Journey 2: The Mysterious Island....

‘Prisoners’ Trailer: Hugh Jackman Loses His Daughter, Then Himself By Russ Fischer/May 30, 2013 6:42 pm EST The films of Denis Villeneuve stick with people. Movies like Incendies, Polytechnique, and Maelstrom demonstrate a knack for plunging recognizable characters into difficult situations (some based in reality, some purely fictional) and exploring the outcome in ways that most audiences won’t readily forget. His work is strong enough to attract an incredible cast to Prisoners, a drama in which two young girls go missing, shattering the complacent lives of their parents....

‘Scary Movie 5’ Trailer #2: Proving That Some Moments Should Never Be Taped By Russ Fischer/March 14, 2013 11:27 am EST It’s something of a crime that Scary Movie 5 is being sold using Danny Elfman’s great theme from Beetlejuice, but since the whole movie looks like something of a crime, I guess it’s just par for the course. The movie continues the series’ goal of parodying big horror movies, and this trailer incorporates a bunch of gags that riff on Evil Dead and Mama, among other movies....

‘The Fault In Our Stars’ Extended Trailer: Shailene Woodley’s Other Big YA Movie By Angie Han/April 28, 2014 12:30 pm EST If you’re not a big fan of Mondays (and who is?) then you probably think the last thing you need is an excuse to cry. And that’s exactly what the new The Fault in Our Stars extended trailer is. Somehow, though, getting bummed out over this movie feels more good than bad....

Andy Serkis Is Also Doing Mo-Cap Work For ‘Avengers: Age Of Ultron’ By Russ Fischer/June 30, 2014 11:00 am EST Over the weekend we heard a bit from Andy Serkis about his work for Star Wars Episode VII. The actor is also doing work with Joss Whedon and crew, however, for Avengers: Age of Ultron. Serkis is a principal in The Imaginarium, a company he founded to be the world’s premiere performance-capture outfit....

Christopher McQuarrie Suggests He’s Directing ‘Mission: Impossible 5’ By Germain Lussier/Feb. 5, 2013 11:15 am EST Back in November, reports said Christopher McQuarrie would be directing Tom Cruise in Mission: Impossible 5. This made sense on numerous levels. Brad Bird, who directed the fourth film, had moved to another project. McQuarrie and Cruise have a great relationship, culminating in Jack Reacher, which at the time was yet to be released. Finally, each entry in the M:I series to date had a new director at the helm....

Disney Already Discussing ‘Frozen’ Becoming A Broadway Musical By Germain Lussier/Jan. 13, 2014 12:15 pm EST Disney execs had a feeling Frozen was going to be a hit, but it’s blown away their wildest expectations. Two months into its run, the winter-themed musical has grossed over $315 million domestic with another $400 million-plus worldwide, and counting. Those numbers are better than the first release of The Lion King (not counting inflation or 3D) and with an Oscar nomination and possible win coming soon, the sky is the limit for the film....

Exclusive: Damon Lindelof Explains The Truth Behind Leaked Early ‘Lost’ Document By Germain Lussier/Sept. 20, 2013 9:00 am EST However, we went to the source — show creator Damon Lindelof – who gave us the full details on this document. This document outlines the version of Lost the network wanted, but one that Lindelof and J.J. Abrams didn’t. In going against this design, we were rewarded with one of the best and most polarizing TV shows of all time....

How Much Are You Really Using Your Netflix Subscription? By Angie Han/Sept. 26, 2014 12:00 pm EST As far as entertainment goes, $7.99 per month for a basic Netflix streaming subscription seems like a relative bargain. Still, you’re only getting your money’s worth if you’re actually using it. So how much are you using it, really? According to a new study, probably quite a lot. A research group has determined that the average Netflix user watches 93....

Lee Pace Confirms He’s Auditioning For ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy;’ Says Script Is ‘Great’ By Germain Lussier/Dec. 7, 2012 11:16 am EST I like this Lee Pace guy. He’s awesome in Lincoln, was great in Pushing Daisies and is sure to be good in The Hobbit, once his character appears. The actor hit the red carpet for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey this week and confirmed he’s auditioning for James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy on Monday, loves the script and has been researching the Star-Lord....

LOL: Louis C.K. Does ‘Lincoln’ In The Style Of ‘Louie’ By Russ Fischer/Nov. 5, 2012 9:30 am EST Comedian Louis C.K. hosted SNL for the first time in his career over the weekend — as anyone who’s on the comic’s mailing list knows — and one of the sketches saw Louis taking on Lincoln in the style of the show Louie. It’s not Spielberg’s Lincoln, exactly, but it is definitely Louis C....

Mark Rylance Joins Steven Spielberg’s Cold War Thriller By Russ Fischer/June 10, 2014 2:30 pm EST If you needed any confirmation about what Steven Spielberg’s next movie will be, this could provide the news you’re looking for. Tom Hanks and Spielberg have been developing a true-life Cold War thriller, and a new actor has just signed on.

New ‘Elysium’ Poster [Updated With Official Image] By Russ Fischer/April 8, 2013 12:11 pm EST Sony is having a little event today for Neill Blomkamp’s second film, Elysium. That means we might just have a trailer to show you very soon, and at the very least there will be more talk about footage from the film. Until we get something more, here’s a new poster for the film. As the other stills have done, this focuses on Matt Damon’s character, and the augmentations made to his body — augmentations that both preserve his life, and may turn him into something like a weapon....
