The heavily marketed “James Cameron Production” Sanctum, directed by the clearly inexperienced Alister Grierson swamps theaters this Friday. It’s safe to assume that most people would interpret Cameron’s E.P. credit as a ringing endorsement of quality cinema. I, however, know it to be Universal’s deceptive maneuver to bait fools to the box office. Check out the review below…
The Players:
The Plot:Sanctum follows a team of underwater cave divers on a treacherous expedition to the largest and least accessible cave system on the planet. The game plan is to retrace a previously explored route to reach a “base camp” that will allow the group to conduct research. Once deep inside the cave system, shit hits the fan! Time to fight raging water, deadly terrain, and one of the diver’s inexperienced girlfriends (that they pragmatically brought with them). The God:
The Bad:
Overall:Do. Not. See. This. Movie. Rating: 2/10Related Posts |
| Eva Green Joins Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows Posted: 03 Feb 2011 05:21 PM PST
Just yesterday we learned that Jackie Earle Haley and Bella Heathcoate were in talks to join Tim Burton’s Dark Shadows adaptation, and today another actor can be added to the list. According to Deadline, French star Eva Green has been cast in the film as the female lead opposite Johnny Depp.
Green is set to play Angelique, the powerful witch who maintained a love hate relationship with the vampire Barnabas Collins (Depp). Haley is up for the part of Willie Loomis, while Heathcoate is in talks to play Victoria Winters, the young governess of the Collins estate. Loomis is a notorious con artist who comes to Collinwood bent on swindling the reclusive matriarch Elizabeth Collins Stoddard. But instead of finding fortune he becomes the whipping boy of the vampire Barnabas. Dark Shadows is expected to begin filming sometime this year. The film is based on the Gothic themed soap opera that ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971. It reappeared briefly in the early nineties on NBC as a weekly prime time series, but the new format didn't stick and neither did the viewers. What do you think of Green joining the cast of Dark Shadows? Are you interested in seeing the adaptation? Related Posts |
| Interview: James Cameron For Sanctum Posted: 03 Feb 2011 05:13 PM PST
Sanctum’s Australian director Alister Grierson’s has one source of audience bait: James Cameron’s name in enormous, bold font in the center of his billboards. The multi-Oscar winning director/writer/producer acts as an EP on this shipwreck of a film (pun INTENDED) about stranded (!!!) scuba divers. Sanctum is a not a Cameron film, it’s very much a project that he sat back on and lent his name to, but what kind of fool forgoes an opportunity to speak with James Cameron? We were fortunate enough to sit down with the filmmaker to discuss his film. Check out the interview below…
You’ve clearly taken particular interest in water related adventure films, shipwrecks specifically. There’s talk that you’ve considered making a documentary on the subject…
Like the majority of your films, Sanctum features a story of survival…
George’s moment of decompression sickness is one of the most gripping scenes in the picture, can you elaborate on what exactly DCS entails?
I think it’s safe to argue that you’re a bonafide diver/underwater explorer. Any crazy discoveries over the years?
The movie was almost entirely critter-free, any particular reason?
The entertainment industry on the whole will argue that you’ve revolutionized 3D film. What’s your honing process like along the lines of cameras?
The film has a nationwide release Friday, February 4th. Check back for the review!

| Tom Cruise Eyeing Guillermo del Toro’s Mountains of Madness Posted: 03 Feb 2011 05:00 PM PST
A little while ago we heard that Tom Cruise was interested in starring in the Guillermo del Toro directed, James Cameron produced, At The Mountains of Madness. The film is based on the H.P. Lovecraft novella, and the duo are looking to create an R-rated, 3D adaptation of the story. While out promoting Sanctum, Cameron spoke to MTV about Cruise’s potential involvement and everything seems to be looking up…
According to Cameron:
What else does Cruise have up his sleeve exactly? Is there a specific reason why this deal can’t happen now? Granted he’s busy working on Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol, but that film shoot shouldn’t last until June. Come on now, Tom. The story of At Mountains of Madness will center on an expedition in Antarctica that reveals the true origin of humanity that’s hidden behind the highest mountains. Aliens? Monsters? Who knows! What do you think of Cruise possibly starring in At the Mountains of Madness? Related Posts |
| Box Office Predictions: The Roommate, James Cameron To Win Super Bowl Weekend Posted: 03 Feb 2011 04:56 PM PST
With a majority of the country’s eyes glued to the big screen for Sunday’s Super Bowl, look for this weekend’s box office to be ruled by low-grade teen horror fare with Gossip Girl Alum Leighton Meester’s The Roommate, Oscar Nominees such as The King’s Speech, action flick holdovers The Mechanic/The Green Hornet and James Cameron’s Sanctum. And Now For Our Predictions…..
#1 The Roommate
The movie going public has shown that they are willing to pay top dollar for low-grade horror/thriller/teen fare in the winter months with the likes of The Haunting in Connecticut to The Last House On The Left all opening to solid numbers. Throw in a C-level TV star in Gossip Girl Leighton Meester, tabloid favorite Minka Kelly( Derek Jeter’s Girlfriend), and The Roommate will open at the #1 spot. Our Prediction:$12-13M Opening weekend #2 SanctumThe King Of The World Mr.James Cameron returns to theaters abet as a producer on the thriller Sanctum. While the film boast no stars whatsoever, Cameron’s name alone added with the higher 3D ticket prices should help land Sanctum at the #2 spot this weekend. Our Prediction: $10-11M Opening.weekend. #3 No Strings Attached
With a solid opening weekend, and better than average second weekend hold, No Strings Attached has become the go to romantic comedy date movie. The Super Bowl should steal away some moving going couples, but look for the Ashton Kutcher/Natalie Portman film to hold steady at #3. Our Prediction: $9M Weekend Box Office #4 The King’s Speech
In just a matter of weeks the The King’s Speech has gone from Oscar hopeful to Oscar front runner and a likely $100m grossing film. Add in last weekend’s surge in box office receipts , strong week-week declines, and The King’s Speech should land at the # 4 spot this weekend. Our Prediction: $8M Weekend Box Office. #5 The Rite
Anthony Hopkins scored a number one opening last weekend with The Rite, however horrid reviews, likely poor word of mouth, and the super bowl will knock The Rite all the way down to the number #5 spot this weekend. And Now For The Rest Of The Top Ten. #6 The Mechanic
Our Prediction: $6.5-7M Weekend Box Office #7 True Grit
Our Prediction: $6M Weekend Box Office #8 The Green Hornet
Our Prediction: $5.5-6M Weekend Box Office. #9 The Black Swan Our Prediction: $4.5M Weekend Box Office. #10 The FighterOur Prediction $3.5M Weekend Box Office Related Posts |
| International Trailer for Hanna Posted: 03 Feb 2011 04:28 PM PST
A new trailer has been released for Joe Wright’s teen assassin flick Hanna. The film stars Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan as the title character, and she’s putting in some serious work. And by work we mean, she’s murdering people left and right. Of course it doesn’t sound pretty, but she was raised by a paranoid and psycho father, so what else would you expect? Check out the international trailer and see for yourself…
That poor teenage boy got more than he bargained for when he leaned in for a kiss. Hanna gave him the business, and by business we mean a punch to the face! Hanna’s lack of social skills paired with her fighting skills, makes for for an interesting character. We can’t wait to see what else the film has to offer. Official Synopsis:
Hanna opens in theaters everywhere on April 8. What do you think of the trailer for Hanna? Source: Coming Soon Related Posts |
| Watch Rango Super Bowl TV Spot Now! Posted: 03 Feb 2011 04:05 PM PST
Will any of the commercials that air during the Super Bowl this Sunday be “fresh” and “new”? The studios have released more than their fair share of early TV spots including ones for Transformers Dark of the Moon, Kung Fu Panda 2, Pirates of the Caribbean on Stranger Tides, and now Rango! Both of Johnny Depp’s releases are getting the Super Bowl treatment. Check out the TV spot below…
We can’t wait for this movie to come out. It looks hilarious and a lot different from all the other animated films flooding the market. Rango centers on a chameleon who's going through an identity crisis and embarks on a cross-country journey where he ends up in the dangerous SouthWest territory. Instead of the animals being portrayed as creatures in the wild they're given human characteristics, a cowboy/mariachi wardrobe, and a Western genre vibe. The voice cast for the film includes, Isla Fisher, Abigail Breslin, Alfred Molina, Bill Nighy, Harry Dean Stanton, Ray Winstone, and Timothy Olyphant. Rango is scheduled to hit theaters on March 4, 2011. What do you think of Rango’s Super Bowl spot? Are you interested in seeing the film? Source: Apple Related Posts |
| Official Fast Five Poster Debuts And It’s… Posted: 03 Feb 2011 02:22 PM PST
…underwhelming. The first official poster for the fifth installment of the Fast and the Furious franchise entitled Fast Five has been released. Unfortunately, the poster is kind of lame. We’re assuming they don’t reveal too much because it’s just a teaser but either way it’s nothing to write home about. Check it out for yourself…
Do you see what we mean? It’s all titles and then boom, we get the two main characters and that’s it. Don’t get us wrong, we don’t want to be spoiled, but they can do a lot better than two blurs and a gray sky. What do you think? Official Synopsis:

| Reelz Channel Trailer for The Kennedys Posted: 03 Feb 2011 01:48 PM PST
“There will never be another Camelot.” Those are the daunting words that kickstart the trailer for the miniseries The Kennedys. The made for TV movie will air on the Reelz Channel after a long, long deliberation among networks. It was originally intended to premiere on The History Channel but they opted out after seeing the first cut of the finished product. Check out the new trailer that recently debuted on Reelz…
Can you say drama? This takes us back to the days when TV movies were all the rage. Do you remember the midnineties Kennedy biopic, which starred Patrick Dempsey has John F. Kennedy? Here that honor goes to Greg Kinnear. The whole roster is pretty talented, with the female lead going to Katie Holmes, who plays Jackie. This take on the family’s story definitely shows them in a different light than what we’re used to. Tom Wilkinson is really showing Papa Joe’s true colors as the patriarch of the clan. Are you interested in seeing what else this film has to say about the elite members of Camelot? The Kennedys will air on April 3 in the U.S., and on March 6 in Canada. What do you think of the new trailer for The Kennedys? Will you watch? Related Posts |
| Drive Angry 3D Red Band TV Spot is Extreme! Posted: 03 Feb 2011 01:09 PM PST
Nicholas Cage’s latest action flick entitled Drive Angry 3D is being called a high octane thrill ride filled with explosions and expletives. Over on IGN UK, they’ve released a red band TV spot that advertises all that and more! Check out a taste of what happens when Cage is in a bad mood and gets behind the wheel.
As you can see, everyone in this film wants to f*ck you up. Hands are getting blown off, people are getting punched in the face, and axes are being thrown. This sounds like our kind of party! Official Synopsis:
Drive Angry 3D opens in theaters on February 11, 2011. What do you think of the red band TV spot? Related Posts |
| Tron and Tron Legacy Blu-ray Art Revealed? Posted: 03 Feb 2011 12:11 PM PST
Prior to the release of the long awaited sequel Tron Legacy, we learned that the original Tron was going to finally make its debut on Blu-ray. The film was released nearly 30 years ago and hadn’t experienced the conversion to High Definition just yet. Over at Amazon, they have what appears to be the packaging for not only the Tron Blu-ray but also its sequel. Check out the photos and the details below…
This artwork hasn’t been confirmed by Disney and is being listed as pending. If they do use it, it will be a great collector’s edition box set. The bad news is the original Tron only seems to be available in the set and not as a solo release. Boo! What if you just want the movies individually and not all the bells and whistles of a special edition? Here’s the Tron Legacy artwork.
Tron Legacy hit theaters on December 17, 2010 after a long 28 year hiatus. The first movie came out in 1982 and starred Jeff Bridges as Kevin Flynn, the man and the myth behind the world of Tron. Legacy shifts the focus onto Flynn's son Sam (Garrett Hedlund), who accidentally gets pulled into Tron while trying to save his father's life. What do you think of the Tron artwork? Related Posts |
| Twilight Music Videos and Performances Now on Blu-ray and DVD Posted: 03 Feb 2011 11:45 AM PST
How excited are you? We’re getting closer and closer to the release of Breaking Dawn where we will finally get to see a monster-baby be made (we’ve already seen the foreplay poster) and the two of them will finally be able to chill out and have some sex. Part I will hit theaters on November 18, 2011 and Part II on November 16, 2012, but before then, you can get your groove on with the "visual soundtrack" for the film. Unlike the usual SOUNDtrack, this soundtrack comes with an unprecedented collection of music videos and live performances from bands featured on the chart topping soundtracks from each of the three film.
Since we all know that the Twi-hards are a visual group (and an extremely horny one), it makes sense that just listening to music isn’t enough! Hell, getting a few extra shots of some of the Twilight cast can’t be a bad thing over some angst-y, sexually charged music.
Here is a list of all the videos and performances from MUSIC VIDEOS AND PERFORMANCES FROM THE TWILIGHT SAGA SOUNDTRACKS: VOLUME 1 has in store for you…
And that’s not all! Bonus Feature Tracks include: Debussy "Clair De Lune" and Verdi "La Traviata" There are about 100 minutes of Twilight music for you to enjoy. The DVD will be going on sale for $26.99 and it’s in stores now or available for $20.99 on Amazon! Enjoy! Related Posts |
