Review: Can Chris Pine And Denzel Washington Stop The 'Unstoppable'?

When you see Denzel Washington and a train, you automatically think of 2009's The Taking of Pelham 123. But Tony Scott's new film Unstoppable is anything but Pelham 123, showcasing an exciting story of a catastrophic train, and the everyday heroes who risk their lives to stop it.

Could This Be The Spider-Man Reboot Plot?

A Cominsoon.net forum member claims to know the plot of the all new Spider-Man reboot.

Review: Does Tron Legacy Live Up To It's Twenty Year Old Hype?

As most of you movie goers may know, we've got tons of choices for films this Winter break. But I had my mind set on Disney's new Tron Legacy, the sequel to 1982's Tron. Here's my review on Disney's technological masterpiece.

Golden Globe Nomines For 2011 And My Choices

Here are the Golden Globe nominees for 2011, along with my choices for winners.

Fan-Cast: Who Should Play Harry Osborn In The Spider-Man Reboot

The Spider-Man reboot cast is shaping up great with Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Rhys Ifans, Martin Sheen, and Sally Fields all set to star, but one very important character has yet to be cast, Peter Parker's best friend Harry Osborn. Previously played by James Franco in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man films, it makes you wonder who Marc Webb will cast in the role, or if he will even be in the film at all. I have some suggestions of my own for the next Harry Osborn.

New Spider-Man Reboot News; Including New Castings And First Look At Emma Stone As Gwen

Well first off what we already knew about the Spider-Man reboot was that Andrew Garfield is playing Peter Parker, Emma Stone is playing Gwen Stacy, Martin Sheen is playing Uncle Ben, Sally Field is playing Aunt May, and Rhy's Ifans is playing Dr. Curt Connors/The Lizard. Now tons of castings and rumors have been unleashed as the film nears shooting later this month.

The Official Thor Trailer Strikes

The all new OFFICIAL Thor trailer has finally been released. After some footage from Comic Con was leaked and called back due to copyright, we now finally have an official polished trailer. Thor will be squaring off with Ryan Reynold's Green Lantern next Spring, and it seems their trailers will be squaring off too. I'm disappointed that Donald Blake (The alter ego of Thor in the comics) will not be in the film.

The original story of Thor is that his father Odin vanishes him from the kingdom of Asgard and traps him in the body of a handicap human doctor known as Donald Blake on Earth for punishment, with know memories that he was ever a god. On Earth he falls in love with Jane Foster, a fellow doctor. Later on, he discovers his hammer Mjolnir in a cave and when he holds it he posses the power of 'The Mighty Thor'. He can then  freely change from human to god, in the case of danger by tapping his cane against the ground.

The film will follow a similar story, but Thor will just be sent to Earth in his regular god body but without his hammer and powers. He will still fall in love with Jane Foster (Played by Natalie Portman), but will have memory of his god days. The infamous Loki, played by Tom Hiddleston, will also be featured in the film. For those who don't know, he is the villainous (Innocent seeming to Odin) adopted brother of Thor, and his arch nemesis.

Here is an all new teaser poster:
And here's the official Thor trailer:
Thor will star Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Anthony Hopkins as Odin, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, and Natalie Portman as Jane Foster. I'm sure will see cameos from other Avengers such as Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, and Clark Gregg as agent Coulson.

What did you think of the Thor trailer? Did you like it better than the Green Lantern trailer?

Will The New 007 Installment Finally Come To Be In 2012?

The news that every Bond fan has been waiting for; is it canceled or possibly continued? Well we have the official answer as whether MGM money troubles have put the new Bond film on halt.

Christopher Nolan Is No Longer Involved With The Man Of Steel (Updated)


Its seems that Christopher Nolan will be leaving Man Of Steel in the hands of Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. to put his full focus on The Dark Knight Rises. But will the movie go down hill without Nolan's influence.

While some fans might be worried about the future of the new attempt at rebooting Superman, fans can rest assure that now that Nolan is putting his full time and effort into The Dark Knight Rises, it will be a great film. But even though Nolan is no longer involved with the film, Hans Zimmer who usually works with Nolan on his projects, is still set to compose the score for Superman. Zimmer is a fantastic choice, but this might mean we won't here the original classic theme by John Williams from the 70's in the Man of Steel.
Hitfix interviewed Nolan's wife, Emma Thomas, on the subject. Here's Hitfix writer Gregory Ellwood's explanation on Nolan's departure:

Thomas said Nolan is so single minded when making a picture it’s hard to get him to work on anything else. And she made it clear that in the case of “Superman,” Nolan and David Goyer just had an idea they couldn’t believe wasn’t being explored by Warner Bros. And with Zack Snyder now on board as director, Nolan will be busy making “The Dark Knight Rises” and “we are handing it off to him.” So, take note anyone out there thinking this will be a strange Nolan/Snyder partnership. Thomas reiterated that they brought it to an appropriate screenplay and it’s now Snyder’s picture.

Now don't just give up on the Man of Steel, they still have all of their whole cast to assemble and Zack Snyder is still at the helm of it all. Christopher Nolan did help with the beginning of the project, so hopefully we will see some of his past ideas on the big screen. But Nolan is THE Batman director, and I don't mind whatever he has to do to continue making good Dark Knight films.

What are your thoughts on Nolan's departure?

Heath Ledger's Joker Could Be In The Dark Knight Rises

According to Showbiz Boy, there are reports saying that using a variety of cut scenes and CGI technology, The Joker my return for Batman 3. Could this be the best way to connect the two movies, or a recipe for fan base disaster.

Top 5 Greatest Trailers


I'm submitting to you my top five movie trailers. Tell us what you think your favorite's were.

This is a new TV series called Transformers Prime which is based on the novel Transformers Exodus and the video game War for Cybertron. The show Transformers Prime leads up to the Transformer: Dark of the Moon movie coming out in next year.

More Ultimate Spider-Man TV Show Cast Announcements

According to Internet Movie Database, there has been new castings for the all new Disney XD Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon. These include, Uncle Ben, Mary Jane, Gwen Stacey, and J. Jonah Jameson.

Matthew Goode Could Be The Next Superman In Man Of Steel

According to Movienewz.com, Matthew Goode is a front runner to play Superman in Zack Snyder's Man Of Steel. Goode played Ozymandias in Watchmen which was directed by Snyder as well. Could Snyder be getting actors that he's worked with in the past for his Man Of Steel cast.

Here's what Movie Newz had to say:

According to our sources, Snyder wants Goode to play mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent and has plans to rely heavily on CGI for The Man of Steel. Essentially this means Superman could be a CG enhanced character, similar to what Warner Bros. is doing with the Green Lantern costume. This would certainly eliminate the need to cast based on the physical stature of Superman.
Fan favorites of the part including, Henry Cavill, Jon Hamm, Matt Bomer, and even Brandon Routh, may have just lost their chance at the Man Of Steel. Matthew Goode was personally my least favorite part of Watchmen, whose villain really couldn't compare to the rest of the films amazing characters. But could he be different in to role of a hero?

What do you think of Goode as Superman, and Superman having a CGI suit?

Review: Enter the Captivating World Of The Dream In Inception

Where to begin with a movie like Inception. Well for one thing it's worth pointing out that it's easily the best film of this year so far, and makes every other movie that's come out this summer pretty much look like crap. Inception has action, drama, romance, tragedy, a deeply complex plot, and most importantly, dreams. If you can say that about any other movie that's come out this year then please enlighten me, cause in my opinion no other film has even come up to par with those standards. Christopher Nolan (Director of The Dark Knight, Prestige, Memento, and Batman Begins) never fails to impress and has done it again. But what makes this movie so great? Read below to find out.
