‘Back To The Future Part II’ Documentary Focuses On 2015 Future Technology By Germain Lussier/April 15, 2014 3:00 pm EST Back to the Future fans surely know that next year, 2015, is the year Marty McFly travels to in Back to the Future Part II. However, when the film was released in 1989, the possibility of flying cars, self-tying shoes and hoverboards seemed within the realm of possibility 25 years down the line....
By Angie Han/July 1, 2013 1:00 pm EST After playing one of the most memorable supporting characters in 21 Jump Street, Ice Cube is getting a buddy-cop comedy of his own. That header image probably tells you everything you need to know about the dynamic at the center of Ride Along, but in case you need more detail: The comedy stars Kevin Hart as Ben, an aspiring cop who wants to ask his girlfriend (Tika Sumpter) to marry him — much to the irritation of her big brother James, a tough Atlanta PD officer....
‘Snowpiercer’ U.S. Trailer: Chris Evans Leads A Revolution By Angie Han/May 29, 2014 12:15 pm EST After playing squeaky-clean Captain America in The Winter Soldier, Chris Evans gets to play a much grittier sort of hero in Bong Joon-ho’s Snowpiercer. Some of that grit is literal — Evans’ Curtis looks like he hasn’t had a shower in a good long while — but mostly, it’s spiritual. The dark thriller is set in an Earth that’s been ravished by a new ice age....

But even by the city’s surly standards, the character Robin Williams plays in his next movie has an attitude problem. He’s such an obnoxious jerk, in fact, that in the first Angriest Man in Brooklyn trailer, he causes his doctor (played by Mila Kunis) to snap and tell him he has 90 minutes left to live....

Cate Blanchett Will Also Narrate Terrence Malick’s ‘Voyage Of Time’ By Angie Han/May 15, 2014 9:00 am EST Recently, Terrence Malick has been putting out new movies every year or two instead of every decade or so. But that doesn’t mean he’s rushing these newer projects. Case in point: His documentary Voyage of Time has been brewing for several years already, with Brad Pitt revealed as the narrator all the way back in 2009....
DC’s ‘Fables’ Moving To Big Screen With ‘Fantastic Four’ Writer And ‘A Royal Affair’ Director By Russ Fischer/June 4, 2013 1:21 pm EST Given the surge of Hollywood interest in fairy tale stories, I’m surprised that it has taken this long for Bill Willingham’s award-winning DC/Vertigo series Fables to get a huge movie deal. In fact, however, Fables has been tied up in stalled deals for years; one of them was a TV deal that saw Fables back-burnered when the intended network, ABC, went with another fairy-tale revival instead....
Early Buzz: ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2’ By Germain Lussier/April 8, 2014 1:50 pm EST Here are a bunch of exit reaction tweets from the first U.K. screening of The Amazing Spider-Man 2: AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2: Terrible. Not so much a movie as a bunch of scenes, almost none of which are any good. — olilyttelton (@olilyttelton) April 8, 2014 The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is better than The Amazing Spider-Man. — Den Of Geek UK (@denofgeek) April 8, 2014...

How Neill Blomkamp Chose The Product Placement In ‘Elysium’ By Angie Han/June 18, 2013 11:00 am EST No moviegoer walks into a theater excited about all the brands they’re about to see featured onscreen, but when a typical tentpole budget falls in the nine-figure range, product placement is a necessary evil. And sometimes, “evil” really seems like the best word to describe it — there’s nothing more obnoxious than a film that stops in its tracks so the hero can extol the virtues of a certain soft drink....
Lightning Strikes In New ‘Amazing Spider-Man 2’ Teaser Posters By Germain Lussier/Jan. 18, 2014 4:03 pm EST A familiar showdown between Spider-Man and Electro is featured on a new teaser poster for Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

Listen: ‘Batman V Superman’ Director Zack Snyder Defends Aquaman On Detroit Radio By Germain Lussier/Aug. 8, 2014 10:15 am EST This is so good. Friday morning, a Detroit radio station was talking crap about how Aquaman could fit into Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Then someone named Zack called into their show. This person claimed to be director Zack Snyder, and having talked to Zack Snyder in the past, I’ll say it sounds just like him....
Long ‘Elysium’ Trailer: This Is The One You’ve Been Waiting For By Russ Fischer/June 13, 2013 4:08 pm EST Here’s the Elysium trailer you’ve been waiting for. This one shows more of District 9 director Neill Blomkamp’s vision of a crappy everyday life on Earth, as a character played by Matt Damon tries to deal with the automated law enforcement of the trashed planet. The trailer sets up a lot more of the first act, showing the accident that leaves Damon’s character in critical condition, and establishes the deal that leads him to Elysium, where the wealthy and powerful reside....
