Date Moved Up For The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones

16 hours ago | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »

It seems to be a trend with movies, most recently I’ve noticed it with Star Trek Into Darkness, but movies have started to move their dates up to Wednesday instead of the traditional Friday to capitalize on their opening weekend. The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is the latest to take advantage of the trend.

According to book author, Cassandra Clare on her Tumblr, the release date has been moved up to August 21, and she’s thrilled about it.

I’m really excited because it means the fans will get to see the movie earlier! It also reflects a lot of confidence in the film on the part of the studio to move it to a Wednesday release date so I’m really excited about that, too.

The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones starring Lily Collins, Lena Headey, Jamie Campbell Bower, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Robert Sheehan, Kevin Zegers, Kevin Durand, »

'Only God Forgives' and 'Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters' Rated in Today's MPAA Bulletin

19 hours ago | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Today's bulletin is another light one in terms of bigger name films as only Only God Forgives and Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters immediately catch the eye. Certainly a few people will see Uwe Boll's Assault on Wall Street on accident, Craig Zisk's The English Teacher starring Julianne Moore, Greg Kinnear, Michael Angarano and Lily Collins will be recognized by some as it is already in theaters and while I'm not interested in it, I'm sure some of you will be looking for the animated Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox. However, with Nicolas Winding Refn's Only God Forgives, which I just saw here in Cannes a few hours ago and will have a review for you soon, you're getting the anticipated R-rating and the continuation of the Percy Jackson story will continue one notch higher on the rating scale than where it began with Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. »

She really is the fairest of them all! Lily Collins arrived at the set of her new film, Love, Rosie, on Monday, May 20 sporting a fresh face before getting glammed up for the big screen. The 24-year-old Mirror Mirror star walked onto the Toronto, Ontario set makeup-free, wearing her locks up in a ponytail. After spending a little time with hair and makeup, Collins reemerged with her hair half-up and curly and wearing subtle makeup that accentuated her already beautiful features.

New 'Mortal Instruments' footage to be revealed at LeakyCon

20 May 2013 12:25 PM, PDT | Twilight Examiner | See recent Twilight Examiner news »

LeakyCon festival goers are in for a real treat this summer. The group has announced today that it'll screen exclusive new footage from "The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones" during its Portland, Oregon-based convention on June 29 which will then be followed up with a video conference chat with the best-selling book series' author, Cassie Clare. For the uninitiated, Clare's ties to "Harry Potter" - the primary subject of the festival - are strong indeed as she began her writing career doing fan-fiction for the magical J.K. Rowling phenomenon. No word yet on what exact footage will be contained in the LeakyCon sneak peek. "The Mortal Instruments" film adaptation, directed by Harald Zwart and starring Lily Collins, Jamie Campbell Bower and Robert Sheehan, hits theaters soon after on August 23.

Movie Review - The English Teacher (2013)

19 May 2013 11:06 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

The English Teacher, 2013.

Directed by Craig Zisk.Starring Julianne Moore, Lily Collins, Michael Angarano, Greg Kinnear, and Nathan Lane.

Synopsis:

An English teacher's life is disrupted when a former student returns to her small town after failing as a playwright in New York.

For a writer, failure is inherently less sexy than adversity - it’s adversity that is the catalyst for change. Failure comes with characters having exhausted all their avenues and accepted their reality, but it’s here that The English Teacher paints its triptych of bruised and broken dreams. Opening with the austere tones of Fiona Shaw’s narrator we’re introduced to our bashful hero through a montage of her forays into romance with a series of idiots, aided by on-screen assessments in red pen with a grade befitting their failings. Ms. Sinclair, we’re told, is a passionate woman; a romantic who found sanctuary in »

Lily Collins Goes Mean Girl in 'The English Teacher' (Q&A)

17 May 2013 6:00 AM, PDT | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »

After a string of big budget studio productions to kick-start her career, including roles in The Blind Side and Mirror Mirror (lest we forget about the ill-fated Abduction), Lily Collins sought a change of pace for her latest project: The English Teacher. “I'd never done an independent film and I was really curious as to how they were different than studio projects,” Collins tells The Hollywood Reporter. “I read the script and even though it was a smaller character in an ensemble piece, I just thought it's a character that I haven't played before.” Photos: Hottest

The English Teacher Review

16 May 2013 5:38 PM, PDT | We Got This Covered | See recent We Got This Covered news »

Born from mostly pleasant parts, Craig Zisk’s The English Teacher is a frothy foil to most mainstream comedies masquerading as such. It nicely blends a coming of (old) age tale with what is clearly a love/hate relationship with the emotions associated with writing and theater, chiefly seeing one’s work realized in the fashion originally envisioned. Lead by a company of fine thesps doing equally fine work, this dramedy is an easy watch even when those aforementioned amiable parts are far less effective when singled out.

From the opening scene The English Teacher suggests we’re in for a completely different film from what ultimately unfolds, due in no small part to the disembodied, whimsical voiceover narration which is snatched right from the clutches of wonderful entertainment such as Pushing Daises and Stranger Than Fiction. Unsurprisingly, simply extracting effective elements from other, better fare does not a good decision make, »

Bitch Stole My Bow: Miley Cyrus vs. Lily Collins

16 May 2013 2:12 PM, PDT | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Well, Miley Cyrus and Lily Collins have at least one thing in common. The Hannah Montana bad girl and Mirror Mirror good girl have both donned outfits with large white bows on the back. Miley's bow was fastened the back of a chic Valentino jumpsuit. We love when the queen of twerking opts for classier ensembles, which she did for last night's Maxim Hot 100 party, of all places. But she has some competition from the Moral Instruments actress and her Paule Ka stunner. For starters, the bow is way bigger (bigger is always better, right?) and the plunging neckline on the front of the gown is definitely sexier.  Sorry Miley, but our vote goes to Lily on this one. What's your take? »

Weekend Movies: 'Star Trek Into Darkness,' 'Black Rock,' and More

16 May 2013 9:01 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

"Star Trek Into Darkness" beams into theaters Thursday, May 16, facing very little competition. The follow up to J.J. Abrams's 2009 "Star Trek" reboot catches back up with the USS Enterprise and its illustrious crew as they zoom off on another epic quest. This time around, Spock (Zachary Quinto), Captain Kirk (Chris Pine), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), and Sulu (John Cho) are summoned home, only to find Starfleet in ruins. The crew soon ventures into a war zone to find villain John Harrison (Benedict Cumberbatch) responsible for the devastation. The 3D spectacle lands in theaters Thursday, May 16, and also stars Alice Eve, Simon Pegg, and Karl Urban. As we mentioned, "Into Darkness" holds somewhat of a monopoly over the box office this weekend. The sci-fi flick's only notable competition are two small limited releases, which happen to star some big-name actors. (Then there's always the previously released "Great Gatsby" and "Iron Man 3. »

Film Review: ‘The English Teacher’

13 May 2013 10:39 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »

Graded on a curve, “The English Teacher” is an affable if familiar high-school comedy populated by bright pupils, badly behaved teachers and amateur theatricals. Clearly inspired by — but never as inspired as — the likes of “Election,” “Rushmore” and “Glee,” this feature directing debut for smallscreen vet Craig Zisk (“Weeds,” “The Larry Sanders Show”) benefits from a brisk pace, witty banter and engaging performances, yet still fades from memory faster than a final exam on the first day of summer vacation. A world premiere at Tribeca, which is also partnering with Cinedigm on the pic’s VOD and theatrical distribution, “Teacher” should perform best with the study-from-home crowd.

In a variation on the lovelorn widow she plays in Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s Sundance hit “Don Jon,” the always resourceful Moore here stars as Linda Sinclair, a 45-year-old spinster who grades potential suitors with the same unforgiving red pen she brings to her »

'Gremlins' Remake Gets Green Light

13 May 2013 8:55 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

It looks there will be some midnight feeding going on over the next few months, as the long-rumored "Gremlins" remake could finally happen.

Warner Bros., which distributed the 1984 original, will apparently proceed with its plans to reboot the horror-comedy classic, this according to horror-movie news site Bloody Disgusting.

Seth Grahame-Smith, king of modern horror comedy, is attached to produce the effort with David Katzenberg. "Gremlins" won't mark the first time the duo has worked together, as they are the creators of the MTV comedy "The Hard Times of Rj Burger." Grahame-Smith made his first foray into film last year after penning the scripts for Tim Burton's "Dark Shadows" update and the movie version of his novel "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter." He has also found fame with his satirical best-seller "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," which was recently resurrected for a big-screen adaptation with Lily Collins in a starring role. »

Cannes: Lionsgate UK Nabs Kate Hudson, Ewan McGregor’s ‘King’

13 May 2013 7:08 AM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »

London — In the run-up to Cannes, Lionsgate UK has picked up six British pics, including Peter Capaldi’s comedy “Born to be King,” which toplines Kate Hudson and Ewan McGregor.

“King” is about a film extra who bears a striking resemblance to a movie star.

Lionsgate also acquired “Locke,” which is penned-helmed by Steven Knight (“Dirty Pretty Things”), and stars Tom Hardy and Tom Holland. The film is about one man’s life unravelling in a tension-fuelled 90 minute race against time. Paul Webster and Guy Heeley produce.

Another pickup is Daniel Radcliffe-starrer “Horns,” which was adapted by Keith Bunin from Joe Hill’s novel. Alexandre Aja (“Piranha 3D”) helms. Radcliffe plays a young man who awakens to strange horns sprouting from his temples following his girlfriend’s mysterious death.

Also added to the slate is “The Keeping Room,” which stars Sam Worthington, Hailee Steinfeld and Brit Marling. Set in »
