New on DVD/Blu-ray: John Carter (2012)
26 May 2012 12:51 PM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
Here’s a secret: Andrew Stanton’s “John Carter” is not nearly as bad as people would like you to think. In fact, it’s a very entertaining movie, with great special effects and a grand sense of adventure that is hard to resist. The film was a labor of love for first-time director Andrew Stanton, and it shows onscreen. Shake off all those reports of behind-the-scenes turmoil surrounding the film, and what you’re left with is a fun movie that really doesn’t deserve all the negative attention it’s gotten. If you decided to skip the movie when it opened earlier this year in theaters, here’s your chance to rectify that mistake, when “John Carter” arrives on DVD and Blu-ray courtesy of Walt Disney Video this June 5th, 2012. From Academy Award(R)-winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton (Best Animated Film, Wall-e, 2008) comes John Carter — a sweeping action-adventure »

New John Carter Blu-Ray Featurette Released
25 May 2012 9:10 AM, PDT | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »
From Academy Award®--winning filmmaker Andrew Stanton comes "John Carter"—a sweeping action-adventure set on the mysterious and exotic planet of Barsoom (Mars). "John Carter" is based on a classic novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, whose highly imaginative adventures served as inspiration for many filmmakers, both past and present. The film tells the story of war-weary, former military captain John Carter (Taylor Kitsch), who is inexplicably transported to Mars where he becomes reluctantly embroiled in a conflict of epic proportions amongst the inhabitants of the planet, including Tars Tarkas (Willem Dafoe) and the captivating Princess Dejah Thoris (Lynn Collins). In a world on the brink of collapse, Carter rediscovers his humanity when he realizes that the survival of Barsoom and its people rests in his hands. The screenplay was written by Andrew Stanton, Mark Andrews and Michael Chabon. John Carter will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray June 5th. »
Jon Favreau and Willem Dafoe Discuss the Legacy of John Carter in New Blu-ray Featurette Clip
25 May 2012 8:34 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
John Carter is coming to Blu-ray and DVD on June 5, and I hope it finds a second life in home release. I don't know what it would take to justify a sequel, but for the sake of ambitious, lush science fiction like this, it would be unfortunate if the lasting legacy was that of a flop. The expansive universe, as designed by Edgar Rice Borroughs, is really built for serialization. We have seen this potential realized on screen in the many properties that were inspired by John Carter of Mars. Jon Favreau points to Star Wars and Superman as two indelible franchises that benefit from the Mars mythos in the featurette, "Influence of John Carter," which will appear on the Blu-ray. We were provided a one-minute clip from the featurette, with supporting remarks by Willem Dafoe (the voice of Tars Tarkas in the movie), and we'd like to share it with you after the jump. »

Find Out How to Blow Up an Airship in Exclusive First Look at Bonus Scene from ‘John Carter’
24 May 2012 1:00 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
As far as we know on Reject Mars, Andrew Stanton‘s John Carter is “full of action,” and that’s exactly how we like it. The Disney epic from Edgar Rice Burroughs‘s classic Barsoom series was so many years in development that, for awhile there, it felt like it would never get made. But get made it did! And, in the case of a film like John Carter, one that relies so much on world-building, alien creatures, and massive battles to tell its story, it’s perhaps best that the film was crafted in a time rife with the kind of cinematic technology that could bring Barsoom to life. Next month, Disney will release John Carter on home video, and they’re cramming the release full of all sorts of goodies that center on the making of the film, including a bonus scene that focuses on the work that went into one of the film’s »

Disney Unsurprisingly Scraps Third Snow White Movie, 'The Order Of The Seven' With Saoirse Ronan
23 May 2012 5:20 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
With the second of this year's live-action "Snow White" adaptations nearing release (Universal's dark, fantasy-driven commercial for milk-bathing "Snow White and the Huntsman" will follow Relativity's candy-colored, slapstick-laden "Mirror, Mirror" on June 1st), it appears that Disney, the home of the beloved, animated "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" adaptation, isn't going to move forward with their Asia-set, kung-fu samurai take "The Order of the Seven." Even though the Mouse House has been working on the project for more than ten years, the move isn't exactly a surprise, becoming collateral damage in the wake of the $200 million flop that was "John Carter."
Like director Andrew Stanton's adaptation of Edgar Rice Burrough's pulp hero, "The Order of the Seven" has suffered through years of development, starting out as a kung-fu-tinged take written by Michael Chabon ("The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay") before undergoing various shifts under the supervision of screenwriters »

‘Finding Nemo 3D’ Trailer – Will This Be Andrew Stanton’s 2012 Hit?
22 May 2012 10:02 AM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »
Disney’s been busy on the 3D re-release front. First came the double feature return of Toy Story and Toy Story 2. Then came the successful 3D run of The Lion King, followed by Beauty and the Beast and announcements for The Little Mermaid and Pixar’s Monsters, Inc. and Finding Nemo. While there was a short teaser early this year, Disney just released a full-length trailer for the heartwarming return to the screen for Marlin and Dory.
Written and directed by Andrew Stanton, whose John Carter only made just over $72 million domestically this year, we wonder if this re-release will actually surpass that sci-fi blockbuster. Disney’s re-release of The Lion King made nearly $95 million last fall in the states, while the same 3D re-do of Beauty and the Beast made around half of that earlier this year. If this release falls somewhere in the middle, it could certainly »

Finding Nemo 3D Trailer Teases Limited-Engagement Run
22 May 2012 6:31 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Take the Toy Story trilogy out of the equation, and Andrew Stanton.s two masterpieces -- Wall-e and Finding Nemo -- compete for title of Absolute Favorite Pixar film. I know, that.s kind of cheating. But the Toy Story films belong on their own pedestal, and the rest can be judged accordingly. All of this is a long-ish way of setting up Finding Nemo.s return to theaters with a 3D upgrade, and a new trailer teasing it for audiences has arrived online. We have it below. .Long time, no sea,. indeed. Why is Nemo my favorite? For so many reasons. Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres are perfectly cast in the vocal roles of Marlin and Dory, the fish in pursuit of the abducted clown fish in Stanton.s story. Also, stop and think how long it took to recreate the ocean, with the simulation of shimmering water. The »
First Full-Length Trailer for Finding Nemo 3D
22 May 2012 5:30 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
After getting a nice little teaser for the re-release of Finding Nemo in 3D at the start of the year, the film’s first full-length trailer has made its way online to reintroduce you to the 2003 film that took home the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
The film is the second of the four films Disney and Pixar announced they’d be re-releasing in 3D after the success of The Lion King 3D. Beauty and the Beast was the first, and Finding Nemo will follow later this year.
After that, we can look forward to seeing Mike, Sulley, and Boo in three dimensions in Monsters, Inc. 3D early next year, and finally (so far) The Little Mermaid 3D towards the end of next year.
Andrew Stanton (Wall-e) and Lee Unkrich (Toy Story 3) shared directing duties, with Stanton co-writing the script with Bob Peterson (Up) and David Reynolds (The Emperor »

This weekend Hero Complex in association with The Los Angeles Times hosted the third annual Hero Complex Film Festival. Highlights to which included a screening of Shaun of the Dead with Edgar Wright, Wall-e with director Andrew Stanton, A Clockwork Orange with Malcolm McDowell, and Robocop with Peter Weller. Joss Whedon’s cult-favorite Serenity closed out the festival Sunday night. Star Nathan Fillion was on hand to discuss the film and its short-lived television predecessor Firefly. (I still maintain that show’s season/series finale "Objects in Space to be the finest piece of writing Whedon’s ever done.) In the post screening Q&A, Fillion reflected on reuniting with the cast for the film, reciting Whedon’s particular cadences and previews his role in another Whedon project/film: Much Ado About Nothing. For all this and more, hit the jump. What follows is a recap of the post–Serenity »

The Full-Length Trailer for 'Finding Nemo' 3D Theatrical Re-Release
21 May 2012 5:39 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Since the great success of The Lion King hitting theaters in 3D last fall, Disney quickly announced the return of 2D animated films like Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid planned for re-release, along with Pixar's hit films Monsters Inc. and Finding Nemo also getting a 3D theatrical re-release. A brief teaser hit at the beginning of the year, but now the full-length trailer for the fall return of Marlin and Dory on a cross-ocean journey to find the former's lost clownfish son Nemo has hit, and it brings back all sorts of warm feelings about this Pixar treasure. This should be quite an experience to have in 3D for the first time. Watch the theatrical trailer for Disney's 3D re-release of Pixar's Finding Nemo, originally via Yahoo: Finding Nemo comes from those geniuses at Pixar and is co-directed by Andrew Stanton (Wall-e, A Bug's Life) and Lee Unkrich »

New Trailer for Finding Nemo 3D
21 May 2012 5:31 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
3D has become almost a dirty word in the current moviegoing environment, but it’s a useful tool when done with purpose and precision (see: Hugo). One of the genres in which 3D really shines is animation, and with Disney’s announcement that they’ll be releasing a number of classics back into theaters we’ll get the chance to see some excellent 3D put to good use. First up on Disney-Pixar’s theatrical re-release slate is Finding Nemo, and a full trailer for the 3D release is now online. The trailer plays up the 3D aspect, and I’m assuming it’s more effective when seen in three dimensions. While 3D seems like a perfect fit for Pixar’s gorgeous ocean-set pic, I’m also just eager to see Andrew Stanton’s incredibly sweet, funny, and heartfelt film on the big screen once again.

Hero Complex Film Fest '12: 'Wall-e', 'Serenity' with Nathan Fillion

Downtown Los Angeles was filled with visions of the future during the third & final day of the third annual Hero Complex Film Festival. Science fiction fans were treated to the one-two punch of Pixar's 2008 film Wall-e complete with a Q&A from writer/director Andrew Stanton, and Joss Whedon's 2005 directorial debut Serenity, wrapping up with a Q&A featuring fan-favorite star Nathan Fillion. The La Times' Geoff Boucher and his team put together another fantastic event, and I already can't wait until next year's festival. This was my first time attending, and it's quickly joined the ranks of my favorite film festivals of the year. I had watched Wall-e again recently enough where I didn't feel the need to check this one out on the big screen again so soon, and according to a few friends, I missed a surprise performance of "You've Got A Friend in Me" by »

Darren Lynn Bousman and Stephen Moyer are Set to Capture the Jersey Devil in ‘The Barrens’
21 May 2012 5:00 AM, PDT | Destroy the Brain | See recent Destroy the Brain news »
Somehow, Darren Lynn Bousman has been able to make 11-11-11, The Devil’s Carnival (while also currently touring with it), The Barrens, and shoot a promo for an upcoming thriller called Cinco-de-Mayo, all within a year’s time. His work ethic alone is something worth applauding even if his films sometimes aren’t as deserving. It seems he’s been quite the topic on the site as of late due to the recent DVD releases of 11-11-11 and Mother’s Day. You can hear Andy and I’s thoughts on the later of the two films on this week’s podcast. The current film that we’ll be talking about today though is the upcoming “monster film” The Barrens. Cannes is currently exhibiting previews to distributors for a number of films in the hopes of attaining proper distribution. Bousman’s film is one of these getting its premiere this week. »

Robin Gibb, one of the last members of the iconic familial pop group the Bee Gees, died Sunday. He was 62. "The family of Robin Gibb, of the Bee Gees, announce with great sadness that Robin passed away today following his long battle with cancer and intestinal surgery," his rep said in a statement. "The family have asked that their privacy is respected at this very difficult time." Along with his twin Maurice and brother Barry, Gibb formed the Bee Gees (in part, to stand for the Brothers Gibb), and together they recorded decades of hit songs, including the iconic Stayin' Alive. »

Weekend Box Office: 'Battleship' & 'The Dictator' Flop Hard As 'The Avengers' Continues To Dominate
20 May 2012 10:12 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Disney sure picked the right time to get in on that Marvel action. After the first Marvel films proved to be decent-sized hits, Disney came in like a shark, swiping the studio up for a few billion, expecting similar results. But not only has “The Avengers” handily outdrawn every other superhero film thus far, it's number one at the domestic box office for a third weekend running, with a $55 million haul, and is actually now Disney’s highest grossing film of all time. Take that, “Flubber”!
On the one hand, this is a shared victory with Marvel, so it’s not exactly the in-house success story that Disney was hoping for. Moreover, there are large back-end deals in place for most of the other participants, particularly the $50 million Robert Downey Jr. is set to take in. And yet what remains is still one sick piggy bank to divvy up. It »
