New Poster & Photos Of 'Snowpiercer' Starring Chris Evans & Tilda Swinton
20 May 2013 11:45 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
The other day, we half-joked about "Anchorman: The Legend Continues" being our most anticipated for the rest of the year. Of course, we are desperately counting the days until the comedy sequel arrives, but there are films that are probably a little higher on our watch-list. And perhaps at the very top is Bong Joon-Ho's "Snowpiercer." The Korean filmmaker, who was behind "Memories of Murder," "The Host" (the good one, not the Stephenie Meyer one) and "Mother" is one of the most exciting filmmakers in the world right now, so we've been following his English-language debut with eagle-eyes ever since it was announced, and even more so since he started to assemble a killer international cast. But the closer the film gets, and the more we see of it, the more desperate the wait for it becomes, and that's true of the latest batch of photos and posters for the movie that just arrived. »

Saoirse Ronan is reportedly being eyed by Marvel Studios for the role of the Scarlet Witch in Avengers 2.
The Hanna actress is the company's "prototype" for the role, according to Super Hero Hype.
Marvel is said to want an actress in her twenties for the role of Wanda Maximoff. Ronan will be turning 20 around the time that filming will be under way on the project.
Writer-director Joss Whedon recently teased that the Scarlet Witch and her brother Quicksilver will feature in his 2015 sequel. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige seemed to confirm the plans while warning that the script was still liable to change.
There have been rumours that negotiations with the returning stars of Avengers have begun to grow heated in regards to salary demands.
Ronan was most recently seen in the Stephenie Meyer adaptation The Host.
She will next appear in Byzantium, The Grand Budapest Hotel and Violet & Daisy. »

Review: Kiss of the Damned
3 May 2013 1:30 PM, PDT | DailyDead | See recent DailyDead news »
Although more recently it’s been turned into a sort of supernatural chastity belt protecting teenage girls from the hunky guys they love, vampirism always served as a deeply erotic foundation for horror stories. Movies capitalizing on this are too numerous to count, but from Jess Franco’s Vampyros Lesbos to Francis Ford Coppola’s Dracula adaptation to, Xan Cassavetes’ Kiss of the Damned, the standouts among them have always infused the curse of becoming an immortal bloodsucker with a humanity and a romanticism that makes it resonate, even if it’s ultimately only in audiences’ loins.
Although it’s destined to draw comparisons to Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight saga, Cassavetes’ film is a significantly more mature – and sexy – take on vampire romance, approaching its subject with sophistication and sensuality even as it indulges in gore and terror that’s as metaphorical as it is visceral.

2 May 2013 3:00 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
Call it the kitchen and bitchin’ weekend. For the past four years, the studios have let the blockbusters play themselves out in May, June and July, reserving the first or second weekend in August for femme-targeted pix like “The Help” and “Eat Pray Love.”
But Meryl Streep, the reigning doyenne of the summer chick flick (“Hope Springs,” 2012; “Julia & Julia,” 2009; and “Devil Wears Prada,” 2006) doesn’t have a major movie coming out until “August, Osage County” in November. So what will fill that spot?
This year, three pics with strong female appeal are opening head to head on the weekend of August 16th, an end of summer period which has become an opportune time to capture the anti-superhero ticket buyer.
