The River: The Complete First Season DVD Preview
The River premiered on ABC at midseason and was produced by Oren Peli (the director of the terrifying film Paranormal Activity) and Steven Spielberg. It had a very interesting premise and plot: months ago, Dr. Emmett Cole (Bruce Greenwood) disappeared deep in the Amazon. An adventurer and television star by trade, Emmett spent his life exploring the world's uncharted territories with his film crew, his wife Tess (Leslie Hope), and his son, Lincoln (Joe Anderson).
As time went on, Lincoln pulled away from his nomadi father, preferring to settle down in a steady job, and Emmett and Tess encountered problems in their marriage. Fast-forward to six months ago, when Emmett and his crew disappeared, and to present day, when Tess approaches Lincoln, saying that Emmett's beacon is once again transmitting a signal from deep within the Amazon.

The River: The Complete First Season - DVD Review

Although the trip down The River was cut short just as the series was getting good, the DVD release of the Complete First Season capture the magic of the eight episodes and features enough bonus material to please fans of the short-lived series. From Oren Peli (director of Paranormal Activity) and executive produced by Steven Spielberg, the series was shot in the "found footage" style of filming and a premise of a show within a show set on the mysterious and magical Amazon River. The series featured Bruce Greenwood, Joe Anderson, Leslie Hope, Eloise Mumford, Paul Blackthorne, Thomas Kretschmann, Daniel Zacapa, Shaun Parkes, Paulina Gaitan, Scott Michael Foster, Katie Featherston, and Lee Tergesen.

DVD Review: Only Season of ‘The River’ Hints at What Could Have Been
21 May 2012 9:59 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – I had some notable problems with ABC’s “The River,” saying in my review of the series premiere, “…while the show has effective moments of horror, they never quite build the way you want them to in a cohesive piece due to the creators feeling the need to get at least one major scare between every break.” Watching where the show went with the first season DVD, hitting stores this week, I stand by my criticisms (I have problems with every episode) but I kind of wish that the creators had been given time to iron out their kinks. The fact is that there simply isn’t enough programming on network TV that one could call daring and while I think “The River” was flawed it was undeniably unlike anything else in your DVR.
DVD Rating: 3.0/5.0

James Badge Dale to play Eric Savin (a.k.a Coldblood) in Iron Man 3
16 May 2012 6:14 AM, PDT | Upcoming-Movies.com | See recent Upcoming-Movies.com news »
Shane Black's Iron Man 3 casts James Badge Dale as Eric Savin turned Coldblood The star of Liam Neeson-frontlined The Grey, has joined the Shane Black film as Eric Savin who, in the Marvel comicbooks was a U.S. Army Lt. Colonel in charge of Project Ultra. However, when he steps on a land mine, he's given cybernetic surgery and becomes Coldblood. Iron Man 3 is scripted by Black and Drew Pearce, and goes into production some time this month. Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce, Ben Kingsley and Rebecca Hall star in the film which opens May 3rd next year. For the plot, Black borrowed from the multi-issue story Iron Man: Extremis from Warren Ellis, looking at a spread of a virus via nanotechnology. Badge Dale's up next in the Robert Zemeckis-directed and John Gatins (Real Steel, Dreamer, Coach Carter)-scripted Flight from Paramount, »
ABC Picks Up 666 Park Avenue, Neighbors, Cancels The River
14 May 2012 3:00 AM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »
More mixed news from the networks; we’ve now heard from ABC. We already knew that Once Upon a Time had been picked up for another season. Now comes word that 666 Park Avenue, the damned-demon-inhabited apartment building owned by The Smoke Monster Terry O’Quinn‘s character, will be open for business, and new alien Neighbors will be moving onto ABC‘s schedule as well.
Unfortunately, ABC‘s support of sci-fi didn’t extend to the uber-creepy super-scary adventure The River, which they have chosen to cancel after one season. Fans, feel free to insert the epithet of your choice here. The DVD set for the first season, and now sadly the only season, will be released on May 22, and we’ll be posting a review then. The River starred Bruce Greenwood, Joe Anderson, Leslie Hope, and Eloise Mumford, and we wish them and the whole production company all the best in their future endeavors. »

The search is truly over for the Magus crew. ABC has cancelled The River, their mid-season thriller series, after just one season of eight episodes.
The River follows the search for Emmet Cole (Bruce Greenwood), an adventurer, TV host, father and husband who disappeared while on an expedition deep in the uncharted waters of the Amazon River. Others in the cast include Joe Anderson, Leslie Hope, Eloise Mumford, Paul Blackthorne, Thomas Kretschmann, Daniel Zacapa, Shaun Parkes, and Paulina Gaitan.
The TV series had an okay premiere, registering a 2.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 8.35 million viewers. Unfortunately later episodes didn't do nearly as well and towards the end of its short season it went as low as a 1.3 in the demo with 4.09 million.

'Now You See Me' Moves To March 2013, Robert Zemeckis' 'Flight' Gets November Release, 'Guilt Trip' Pushed To Christmas
10 May 2012 3:51 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Just when you thought it was all about 2013 now for the studios, the leftover holes in the 2012 film calendar are getting filled up quick. While many, including us, were expecting it to be a 2013 picture, Paramount has announced that Robert Zemeckis' "Flightplan" (now simply known as "Flight") starring Denzel Washington will land in theaters on November 2. Oscar-watch? Hmm, hard to tell and our gut says no, but this one does read more drama than actioner. It's got a fairly easy run, opening against teen movie "21 And Over" and Disney animation "Wreck-It Ralph," although 007 flick "Skyfall" follows the week after. Co-starring Don Cheadle, Brian Geraghty, John Goodman, James Badge Dale and Bruce Greenwood, "Flight" centers on an airline pilot (Washington) who saves a plane from crashing, but an investigation into the malfunctions reveals something troubling: his alcohol issues.
Paramount is also evidently feeling pretty good about "The Guilt Trip." About »

Rumor Has It! Star Trek Sequel Villain Revealed; Franchise Veteran to Return
1 May 2012 10:00 AM, PDT | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »
Back in February, we brought you the first behind the scenes images from the set of director J.J. Abrams‘ as yet Untitled Star Trek Sequel. Some of the photos featured Spock (Zachary Quinto) facing off against the unidentified villain of the film, portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch, who was seen wearing what appeared to be a black version of the Starfleet uniform under his silver overcoat in one of the shots.
Now, we might actually know who that villain is. If you don’t want to know, you might want to turn back now, the rest of this article is definitely spoilery!
The good folks over at TrekMovie are reporting that after beating out a number of Latino actors, including the likes of Benecio del Toro with what is being called a “powerful audition”, Benedict Cumberbatch is actually portraying Khan Noonien Singh in the follow-up to 2009′s Star Trek.
Additionally, they report that Leonard Nimoy, »

Could Leonard Nimoy be in the Star Trek sequel?
28 April 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Leonard Nimoy was in the middle of making his final scene in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek. He knew not only would this be his last scene in the film, but also his last as his universally beloved character Spock. The scene as shot was Spock simply overlooking young Kirk's promotion to Captain of the USS Enterprise. He was then to simply walk away, without a word. Nimoy asked for one last take to try out something. Abrams obliged and, as cameras rolled, Nimoy smiled at the sight (to be added below him later) and said, "Thrusters on full." Months later in the editing process, Abrams called Nimoy back and was thrilled to tell him how well the line had led into the final scene of the film with Sulu starting up the Enterprise's thrusters. When asked about the line, Nimoy simply said it was his way of telling the new cast, »

Let's peek into ABC's 2012 Emmy campaign contenders
25 April 2012 5:49 PM, PDT | Gold Derby | See recent Gold Derby news »
ABC executives have decided to take a risk with two of their new dramas at this year's Emmys. Both "Missing" (with Ashley Judd) and "The River" (with Leslie Hope and Bruce Greenwood) will be competing in the movie/miniseries categories instead of drama. This probably means that the shows will not be renewed or that a second season would be dramatically different than the first. That second argument was made by FX last month when it classified the first season of "American Horror Story" as a miniseries. On the funny side of the slate, "Modern Family" has claimed Best Comedy Series for two years running. It has been the net's only victory in this top race since "The Wonder Years" (1988), and only their second comedy ever to prevail multiple times after "Taxi" (1979 - 1981). While "Modern Family" airs on ABC, it is produced by Fox Studios which handles its Emmy campaign. »

Femography: Director Deepa Mehta
18 April 2012 5:23 PM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
Watching many of the major films from Bollywood history, one trend that stands out is the way that the films show a great respect for traditional values while at the same time providing progressive challenges to those values, ultimately earning the support from the keepers of the traditional values. Deepa Mehta, an Indian-Canadian director, takes a much harsher eye to Indian traditions in her most notable films. While she often makes films that, in location or culture, are distinctly Indian, the Western influences are evident. It is likely for this reason that her films have often faced protest and censorship in India.
After a few hard to find films and some work in television, Mehta broke through in 1994 with Camilla, one of the three features directed by Mehta that doesn’t engage with Indian culture. The main focus is on the friendship that develops between a young woman (Bridget Fonda »
