The big blockbusters of summer 2014

Odd List Simon Brew 25 Apr 2013 - 06:50
Captain America 2, Fast & Furious 7, X-Men, Godzilla, Spider-Man and Transcendence lead our look ahead at the blockbusters of summer 2014...
As blockbuster season is now underway, with the release of Iron Man 3 and Oblivion, it's traditional for us to look ahead to what's coming next summer, and to examine what treats are on the horizon. We've thus sliced out the big films, that we know of now, that are being released between April and August 2014 (Noah, due at the end of March, just misses the cut, as does early March Tom Cruise vehicle, All You Need Is Kill).
And while there's some familiarity to them, there are signs it might just be a more interesting summer than you may think....

The Forgotten: Meat is Murder
18 April 2013 2:12 AM, PDT | MUBI | See recent MUBI news »
There's a pernicious misapprehension afoot that the Brits are the polite ones while Yanks are inclined to brusqueness or brashness, but a comparison of the varied reactions to the deaths of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher would seem to give the lie to this. While "The Great Communicator" was hailed for ending the Cold War (something surely Mr. Gorbachev deserves some credit for), with little mention of his disastrous economic policies and illegal covert wars, Thatcher has received her due as a "divisive" figure, even on the BBC. And, as I write this, there is a genuine chance that "Ding Dong, The Witch is Dead," will reach number one in the UK charts.
Nor were the British uniformly polite about her when she was alive. The Tories gave no encouragement to the art of cinema, or most of the other arts. Invited to talk about her favorite works of art on television, »

10 Most Controversial Award Ceremony Moments Of All Time
13 March 2013 2:02 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Award ceremonies. Loved up celebrities congratulating each other for their brilliance just like George Clooney at the 2005 Oscars where he passionately implied that Hollywood was the only saving grace of the universe. Smug gits like Clooney aside, we love award ceremonies and they are made so much better by a good old controversy.
I for one, would rather watch celebrities making prats of themselves or upsetting the status quo than receiving another useless award. Ten times more amusing. And thanks to the gigantic egos celebrities have, there is usually someone on side to do a ‘Kanye’ or a ‘Marlon’ or a ‘Madonna’.
In the spirit of schadenfreude, I gleefully present to you 10 controversial award ceremony moments.

Marisa Tomei’s Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance in My Cousin Vinny in 1992 has been the centre of some rumours ever since it was awarded. Some claim »

TV Review: Star-Studded ‘Parade’s End’ is True Accomplishment
26 February 2013 11:38 AM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – HBO brings BBC2’s “Parade’s End,” based on the highly-acclaimed novels by Ford Madox Ford, stateside and the star-studded mini-series with a breathtakingly good script from the legendary Sir Tom Stoppard is a must-see for anyone interested in historical drama, quality acting, or the kind of stunning production values usually reserved for big-screen adaptations with Oscar aspirations. Propelled by a trio of Emmy-worthy performances from Benedict Cumberbatch (“Sherlock”), Rebecca Hall (“Vicky Cristina Barcelona”), and Adelaide Clemens (“Silent Hill: Revelation”) and a stunning supporting cast of classically trained actors (it’s like “The Avengers” for fans of British period pieces), “Parade’s End” is one of the most accomplished and impressive productions you’ll see on TV this year.
Television Rating: 4.5/5.0
It’s also slow. Just a warning. One has to be an admirer of Stoppard’s brilliant way with words and consider the symbolic themes of a »

"The Hours" Discussion Pt. 1: Nervous Hands, Ravenous Kisses
18 January 2013 8:00 PM, PST | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
[Editor's Note: for the centerpiece of our 10th anniversary celebration of The Hours, I asked Joe Reid and Nick Davis if they'd like to talk about the movie and it turned out they already had. A heretofore unpublished conversation. I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I did! - Nathaniel ]
Joe Reid: Three (!) years ago, I had planned out an end-of-decade feature for my own blog, wherein I would converse about my favorite films of 2000-2009 with a selection of writer friends. The logistics of it got away from me, but I did manage to get started. One such conversation lost to history was with my fellow Film Experience Podcast panelist Nick Davis on the subject of The Hours. With the ten-year anniversary of The Hours upon us, I thought I'd dig up this abandoned reflection and let it see the light of day.
***
Joe: The Hours is absolutely on the list of movies from the past decade that I truly, unabashedly loved. I suppose there's something chromosomal about a movie starring Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, and Julianne Moore (and Toni Collette, and Allison Janney, and Miranda Richardson). But it's more than just watching all these fantastic actresses hand »
