The original Scream is that rare example of a horror movie that did everything right. Half-satire, half-thriller, it was both critically and financially successful—the series has made over half a billion dollars altogether—and spawned two underwhelming sequels plus a plethora of heinous knockoffs. ( Urban Legend , I’m looking in your direction
If the report is accurate, the addition of three new key female characters could do a lot to assuage the criticisms that were levied against Star Trek Into Darkness for having an overwhelmingly male cast – a situation not helped by the awkward fanservice-y misfire of having Carol Marcus strip down to her underwear and just sort of stand there while Captain Kirk and the camera gawped at
Though most of its action may be focused on a single cathedral, that doesn’t stop The Hunchback of Notre Dame from squeezing in some Disney cameos, with the opening scene alone featuring a vendor selling Aladdin’s magic carpet, and Beauty and the Beast’s Belle out for a morning stroll. The Lion King ‘s resident jokester Pumbaa may seem an odd fit for Paris, France, but his cameo in the film’s climax is even better: proudly standing guard as a stone gargo
In recent days, Latino-Review has been dropping some big rumors about Episode VII ; first came word that Emperor Palpatine will be returning – if only as the Sith equivalent of a “force ghost” – and now the website claims to have knowledge that Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan Kenobi could also be coming back as a ghostly gu
Though Obi-Wan’s ghost already played a role in the original trilogy (embodied by the late, great Sir Alec Guinness), as L-R correctly points out, Hayden Christensen was CGI-surgically implemented into George Lucas’ redux of Return of the Jedi in replacement of original Human-Vader actor, Sebastian Shaw. In that sense, McGregor’s slot in franchise is pretty secure, should the filmmakers choose to go in that direction. After all, for a younger generation of fans, McGregor IS Obi-
Accompanying the news of Star Trek 3 ‘s filming start date is a report from Film Divider that claims to offer new information about the new characters that will be introduced in Lin’s film. The plan, Film Divider claims, is to introduce three major new female characters: the captain of a Federation ship, the President of the United Federation of Planets, and Bones’ ex-wife. The latter could be Jocelyn Treadway, Pamela Branch, or a new character entir
Every fan of Disney and Pixar knows to keep an eye out for the code “A113,” the room number that the studio’s top animators all studied in when attending the California Institute of the Arts. But it doesn’t stop at animated movies. When Brad Bird graduated from directing movies like The Incredibles and Ratatouille to Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol , he made sure to give a nod to his roots. Watch closely, and you’ll spot the code on a trick ring used by IMF agents to inject a sleeping drug into their unsuspecting tar
Film Divider ‘s sources also indicate that the new villain will be a male character and that the studio is looking for a Bryan Cranston-esque actor to play him. In fact, Cranston himself has apparently ” had words ” about taking the role, but what those words were and which direction they took remains a mystery for now. If Cranston does get the role then hopefully he’ll get a bit more screen time than he was given in Godzil
Between superhero movies, the upcoming revival of the Star Wars franchise and the preponderance of YA science fiction novel adaptations like Divergent and The Maze Runner headed to theaters over the next few years, the sci-fi genre is going to be pretty well served in the immediate future. Not to be left out, the rebooted Star Trek universe is also returning in 2016 with Star Trek 3 , which will be directed by Justin Lin ( Fast & Furious
Though the video is lacking, content-wise, we do get to see cast additions Emma Roberts ( Valentine’s Day ) and Hayden Panettiere ( Heroes ) in action, as well as the obligatory scenes involving Ghostface trying and failing to stab Neve Campbell in the b
Every Firefly fan knows that Joss Whedon’s canceled TV show was given a second life, and a conclusion on the big screen. But when Serenity was greenlit by Universal, the crew realized that Fox, believing the property to be dead, had destroyed the sets – meaning they had to be rebuilt from scratch. The film’s budget had to cover the new ship, but Whedon made light of the situation, stencilling storage containers with the words “REUSABLE CONTAINER: DO NOT DESTROY” in large letters. Let’s hope they took the message to he
The previous two movies in the rebooted Star Trek franchise were filmed at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles, so the change of locale is most likely due to the hefty tax incentives offered in British Columbia (which have made Vancouver a popular destination for both film and steam sale tracker|https://Gamedealhq.com/ TV productions). It makes sense that Paramount would try to rein in the budget of Star Trek 3 where possible; anything that cuts down the costs of such an effects-heavy movie is no doubt an attractive prosp
