More Ender's Game Fan Questions Answered And A Look At The International Fleet Seal
14 hours ago | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Last week, Ender's Game producer Roberto Orci took some time to answer a few fan questions about the feature adaptation of Orson Scott Card's sci-fi novel, which is currently in production. Among the topics of discussion were the fantasy "Mind" game played by the children training in Battle school, and Ender's relationship with Colonel Graff, among other tidbits. This week, Orci has answered a new set of fan questions on the Ender's Game production blog, and he's given us a look at the seal for the International Fleet. In case you hadn't heard, Ender's Game is being made into a movie at long last! Asa Butterfield is set to play Ender, while Harrison Ford will play Colonel Graff. If you haven't read the book, the story is set in the future and follows a gifted child named Ender who is recruited by the military to attend a space-set Battle »

22 hours ago | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
Vic Armstrong has worked in the film industry for over three decades, and regardless of whether it's his work as a stuntman, stunt coordinator or director, one need only think of their favourite action movie and you can just about guarantee that Vic worked on it. Whether it's doubling for the likes of Christopher Reeve, Sean Connery and Harrison Ford or working alongside directors such as Steven Spielberg, Ridley Scott and Irving Kirshner, the story of "The World's Greatest Stuntman" is a truly fascinating one. Yesterday, I was lucky enough to talk to Vic and ask him about some of the many projects he's tackled over the years, as well as hearing his fascinating insights into the stunt industry and much more. A big thank you to Titan Books' Tom green for setting up the interview and to Vic himself for taking the time to answer my questions. The Book »
Will Smith Tells High Schoolers The Secret To His Career
24 May 2012 8:06 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
New York -- The Hayden Planetarium at Manhattan's Natural History Museum has been home to many famous voices over the last decade.
Tom Hanks, Liam Neeson, Harrison Ford and Robert Redford have all hosted space-related video presentations within the planetarium's dome. They don't usually show up in person; you might have a hard time getting anyone to pay attention to the space lesson directly above their heads if they did.
But on Thursday, with 300 public high school kids crammed into the planetarium for an event set up in support of the "Youth Inspired Challenge" program, history museum sponsors tried to combine a science lesson and the presence of a Hollywood megastar.
The kids had just returned from a special screening of "Men in Black 3" -- a movie about science! -- and were only told the screening would be followed with a "special presentation" about the film. When Will Smith came out, »

The Last Sci-Fi Blog: Why the RPG 'Eclipse Phase' Should Become a Movie
24 May 2012 7:00 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »
The Sci-fi News: A Blade Runner Sequel, Wool, Beyond Apollo and the Main Reason to See Men in Black 3 Is it possible that Ridley Scott is looking back on his long career and is choosing to spend his twilight years revisiting all of his greatest hits, like an aged rock star going on one final tour? Between the Alien prequel Prometheus and the finally confirmed Blade Runner sequel, it certainly feels that way. Anyway, the big news last week was that Hampton Fancher, who wrote the original Blade Runner, has been tapped to write the screenplay for the new film. A few days later, Scott hinted that his return to future Los Angeles would feature a female protagonist in place of Harrison Ford's Decker. In the same interview, he noted that the sequel will take place some time after the...

Gary Oldman Will Play The Man Who Turns Joel Kinnaman Into 'Robocop'
23 May 2012 4:17 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
In case you were wondering how Gary Oldman's career would shift and change after he finally won his first Oscar nomination, for "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy," the answer is: it wouldn't, really. We hope he's getting paid more, certainly. And there's talk of a return appearance from George Smiley, while the actor is starting to think about stepping behind the camera again, for the first time since 1997's "Nil By Mouth." But as for his acting roles, it seems to be the same kind of mix of villain roles (see "Leon," "The Fifth Element") and mentor roles ("The Dark Knight," "Harry Potter") that have constituted the bulk of his studio work.
He's got a couple of bad guy turns already in the works: he's about to shoot "Motor City," opposite Gerard Butler, and will also star with Harrison Ford and Liam Hemsworth in "Paranoia." As for the mentors, we're »

Exclusive: Road To Perdition Writer Max Allan Collins Talks Lady, Go Die! And More
23 May 2012 10:00 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
Max Allan Collins is perhaps best known for his graphic novel Road To Perdition. In 2002, it was adapted into an Academy Award-winning film which starred Tom Hanks and was directed by Skyfall helmer Sam Mendes. Collins is also an award winning author who has written many best-selling novels, including the popular Nathan Heller and Mike Hammer series. It was last year revealed that Harrison Ford will star in an adaptation of his book Black Hats, a story about Wyatt Earp, who ended his career as a private detective in Los Angeles. His latest instalment in the Mike Hammer series (a continuation of the books written by the late Mickey Spillane) is Lady, Go Die! from Titan Books and is on sale now. Below, he talks about that and much more, including whether or not he'd be interested in returning to superhero comics after a controversial run on Batman a few »
First Look: Chadwick Boseman & Nicole Beharie In Brian Helgeland's Jackie Robinson Film '42'
23 May 2012 6:40 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
With production underway on Brian Helgeland's Jackie Robinson biopic "42," we now have a number of set photos that provide us our first looks at newcomer Chadwick Boseman and "Shame" star Nicole Beharie respectively portraying Robinson and his wife, Rachel Isum.
The story, of course, centers the rise of Robinson, the first African-American baseballer in the Major League, and the controversy that surrounded the move, with another actor also added to the roster in Lucas Black (star of the original "Friday Night Lights" movie) who'll play shortstop Pee Wee Reese, a Dodgers player who embraced Robinson as soon as he joined. Cast also boasts Jon Bernthal as starting pitcher Ralph Branca, Christopher Meloni as in-fielder Leo Durocher, T.R. Knight as travelling secretary Harold Parrott, John C. McGinley as journalist Red Barber and Ryan Merriman as right-fielder Fred "Dixie" Walker.

Box Office: The Avengers Surpasses Star Wars?
22 May 2012 4:08 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
The Avengers: Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Chris Evans as Captain America With a cume of $463.35m after 18 days, Joss Whedon’s The Avengers has surpassed George Lucas’ Star Wars ($460.99m) at the domestic box office, thus officially becoming the fifth biggest blockbuster in history. By next weekend, The Avengers should surpass Lucas’ Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace ($474.54m) to become the fourth biggest domestic blockbuster in history. Impressive? Of course. Any way you look at it, The Avengers‘ box-office performance, whether in North America or abroad, has been phenomenal. The Disney / Marvel actioner has surpassed the expectations of most — if not all — prognosticators. Now, having said that, The Avengers is not a box-office phenomenon on a par with Star Wars. Not even close. Studio/media spin and p.r. b.s. aside, the true barometer of a movie’s success is how many tickets it has sold, »

Ender's Game Teaser Poster
22 May 2012 10:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Here's a simple but cool teaser poster that's hit the internet for Gavin Hood's Ender's Game. The poster comes from the Ender's Game Twitter feed, so it is official.
If you haven't read it yet, there's a great article written by Orson Scott Card detailing his visit to the set of the highly anticipated film. In it he makes a point of saying that the movie being made is not his book. He did say that he loved what he saw though, and that it's going to look great. He discussed a little scene being shot between Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield in the roles of Graff and Wiggin.
The movie hits theaters on November 1st, 2013, and I can't wait to see how it turns out. I've been waiting for this movie since I was a kid, so it better be freakin' good!

Orson Scott Card Visits Set Of Ender's Game film; New Teaser Poster Released
22 May 2012 5:13 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
The writer of the popular Science Fiction book, Ender's Game had a chance to visit the set of the film, and even though Card reveals that many of the scenes aren't based from the book, he seems very impressed with the acting of the film. Below he gives his thoughts on how he felt while experiencing his book brought to life, specifically a certain scene between Harrison Ford and Asa Butterfield as Col. Graff and Ender Wiggin respectively. Check it out below. I sat, off-camera, reading my sole line, which comes in the middle of a scene between Harrison Ford as Col. Graff and Asa Butterfield as Ender Wiggin. The scene does not come from the book – very few of the scenes in this movie do – so it was amusing when others asked me how it felt to have my book brought to life. My book was already alive »

‘Skyfall’ starring Daniel Craig and Javier Bardem – teaser trailer review
21 May 2012 12:59 PM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
Directed by: Sam Mendes
Starring: Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Ralph Fiennes, Judi Dench
Rating: Not Yet Rated
Release Date: November 9, 2012
Trailer Score: 9/10
Thoughts by Tsr: I’ve enjoyed a number of the James Bond films in the past, but it’s never been one of my favorite franchises. One of the films I do love, however, is Casino Royale. I thought Daniel Craig was brilliant in the role, and couldn’t wait to see his next turn. That was Quantum of Solace, a film that was a bit of a letdown. Over these last few years I haven’t been champing at the bit for Craig’s third go as 007, but my interest was definitely piqued when Sam Mendes was chosen to direct. Let’s just say this first teaser has taken that interest to new heights.
This marvelously edited teaser only vaguely hints at the plot, instead focusing on mood and breathtaking images. »

Celebrity Names Have Little Effect On Home Prices
21 May 2012 11:27 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
In this real estate market it takes more than a famous name to bump up the price of a home.
It’s more conventional perks like location and amenities that push the price of celebrity homes higher, not the famous name attached with the property, according to the Los Angeles Times. Recently several celebrities have had to trim the asking price of their homes.
Meg Ryan, for example, recently listed her home at a 42 percent price cut from its 2008 listing price, according to the La Times. Penelope Cruz likewise recently sold her home for $807,000 less than she asked for.
Celebrities aren't the only ones who have been forced to accept lower prices for their homes in recent years. Though home prices rose in more than half of metro areas during the first three months of this year, the uptick followed six years of declines, according to the Wall Street Journal. »

Lucas Black Adds ‘Promised Land’ and ‘42’; Terrifying Set Photos From Jackie Robinson Biopic Surface
21 May 2012 11:25 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
Before we get to the casting items at hand, just you go ahead and look at that freaking image. No, this isn’t from the set of a horror film about a carnival of half-sized amputees; it’s for the biopic of a sports legend. Over at The Birmingham News, we’ve been able to gander at the production of Brian Helgeland‘s 42, which features newcomer Chadwick Boseman as Jackie Robinson, while Harrison Ford, Nicole Beharie, Christopher Meloni, a large supporting cast of notable character actors, and inflatable people are also making onscreen appearances.
Well, no, not really. The nightmare-inducing creatures are actually being utilized for post-production, a time in which they’ll be replaced by digital figures that should, with any luck, seamlessly integrate with actual humans in the crowd. Although that’s obviously the best course of action for 42, I sort of wish they’d stick with these »

5 Things You Might Not Know About 'The Empire Strikes Back'
21 May 2012 8:00 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
After thirty years, three terrible prequels and acres of spin-off material, the "Star Wars" brand has been somewhat tarnished. The fans are still legion, but it's become harder and harder to get excited about the series, and the highlights drift further and further from memory. That being said, we'll always a place for the original trilogy in our hearts, and much of that comes down to the second (or fifth) installment, 1980's "The Empire Strikes Back" Despite the success of the original, creator George Lucas seemed to have taken some of the criticism to heart, a took a back seat for the follow-up, handing over the directorial reins to his old film school professor Irvin Kershner ("The Eyes of Laura Mars," "The Flim-Flam Man") and hiring veteran screenwriter Leigh Brackett and bright young thing Lawrence Kasdan, who'd come to fame thanks to his as-yet-unmade scripts for "The Bodyguard" and "Continental Divide. »

Special Features - The Ten Most Engrossing Movie Soundtracks
21 May 2012 6:25 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Simon Moore presents the ten most engrossing movie soundtracks...
Let me put you on the spot for a moment. Think of a great film. Right now. An uncompromisingly fantastic piece of cinema you’d be proud to shout your love for at the top of your voice in a crowded elevator. I’ll give you a minute to think of one. Hell, take two minutes, so you can cheat and sneak a peek at the IMDb.
Now that you’ve thought of a great film, ask yourself this – would it be anywhere near half as great without its musical soundtrack? Imagine The Godfather without that trumpet theme. Half the story of Star Wars is in John Williams’ breathtaking score. But consider this too – even the crummiest, the cheesiest, the most head-mashingly daft films can be potentially saved by their soundtrack. Ennio Morricone spent almost all of the sixties saving B-movie »
