New Trailers: The Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit
In addition to the much anticipated The Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit teaser trailer has made a nice, expected visit to theaters now, placed in front of The Adventures of Tin Tin, which Peter Jackson is producer of. Scroll to the bottom to view the trailer and more information regarding it. It’s finally getting around that […]
AEOS Review: Mission Impossible 4–An Impossible Feat Made Possible?
I was obviously going to play off the word impossible or possible as much as possible, because I have to hand it to director Brad Bird–if there were a mission to edge as close to the idea of being “impossible,” Ghost Protocol was it. In fact, Ghost Protocol was so good, that it holds the reigning title of best […]
Sherlock Holmes 2: All Looks, No Depth
A Game of Shadows reminds me of the pretty girl in the room that every guy wants to meet. She’s hot, she’s confident, she’s available. And then a guy meets her, and within about 10 minutes, he realizes why no guy is wasting his time talking to her: she’s all looks and no substance. In a […]
Yes, I’m Going to Talk about the Golden Globes
And the nominees are . . . Not going to be listed here. But if you’d like to see a list, they’re just about anywhere else. Like Fandango, or Rotten Tomatoes, where it lists the movies with their RT rating. Kinda nifty. Unfortunately, I haven’t see all of the films/performances that are up for awards […]
Judy Greer: Once a Supporting Actress, Always a Supporting Actress?
After a one-day break from being sick, I’m back (and still sick), but happy to post nonetheless. Today’s post is one I have been thinking about for ages, yet never took the time until now to starting writing about. And yes, of all the posts to be musing about, it is all about Judy Greer, […]
Actors out of Their Elements
You know what I’m talking about right? The funny guy getting all dramatic, or the action dude trying to be funny. I remember watching an interview with Jason Segel where he recalled how difficult it was for comedians to get gigs that weren’t comedy. The crossover from one acting genre to another can sometimes be […]
Ten Facts about Joseph Gordon-Levitt
It’s no surprise that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is hitting the spotlight more than ever in the past couple years. He’s played roles in some big films as well as taken part in smaller projects that mean a lot to him. Instead of giving another biography about the dude, here’s a list of 10 facts (generated from […]
The Iron Lady – New Trailer
The Iron Lady, a film I’ve mentioned in anticipation in at least 2 or 3 posts, finally released a full-length trailer recently, giving us more to look at and think about after watching. It looks like Meryl Streep is about to knock it out of the park again with a great performance. It’ll be interesting […]
Women in the Director’s Chair
The latest issue of The Hollywood Reporter, due to come out December 16, is titled “The (Female) Directors,” with Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Yuh Nelson (Kung Fu Panda 2) gracing the cover. Originally, when I saw the cover, I was really confused as to why Angelina Jolie, of all people, would be on the cover. I […]
Don’t Mind the Age Difference
So I was watching The Proposal the other night on FX (it was airing for the umpteenth time), and I couldn’t stop thinking about the 12 year age difference between Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds. Now there’s been a lot of paparazzi photos of the two of them and their “secret Texas wedding” and other crap filling the […]
