21 May 2013 11:57 PM, PDT
Man Of Steel has released a muscular new trailer in which General Zod lays down the law to Kal-El, and the Earthlings among whom the Kryptonian has made his new life.

No pressure then, Supes... Check out the new trailer, below... The carnage wreaked upon Metropolis is immediately...

Pacific Rim has released a brand new featurette online, explaining some of the sci-fi concepts involved in the robots vs. monsters smackdown. The featurette delves deeper into how the giant robots (known as Jaegers) actually work, with human pilots interacting with a computerised control system in a process known as “drift”. There’s also something referred to as a “neural handshake”, which is when the two pilots merge consciousness, before “drifting” together. Still with us? Watch the featurette and all will become clear... ...

21 May 2013 9:17 AM, PDT
The World’s End has released a new pair of posters online, showing Simon Pegg and pals reacting to an alien invasion in the only sensible way… by clutching on to their pint-glasses for dear life. The new posters feature Pegg and friends Nick Frost, Martin Freeman, Eddie Marsan and Paddy Considine bracing themselves against a gang of bright-eyed aliens, hordes of whom appear to have taken over the boys’ home town. Rosamund Pike is also on hand to leaven the testosterone somewhat, although she has taken the precaution of arming...

The Great Beauty reaction: Cannes 2013
21 May 2013 6:37 AM, PDT
Just how whispers about a film’s quality sweep the Croisette before anyone’s seen a frame is one of the festival’s mysteries, but word on the boulevard yesterday was that Paolo Sorrentino’s The Great Beauty (La Grande Bellezza) is a masterpiece. It’s not, but it is one of the competition’s strongest showings so far, its large canvas, heavyweight themes and stylistic verve inviting Palme d’Or chatter. Consciously evoking Fellini’s La Dolce Vita and Roma in location and ideas, The Great Beauty swoops and soars about the capital in a...

21 May 2013 12:03 AM, PDT
While Warner Bros. has been very quiet on the future of a potential Justice League movie, a new tie-up with supermarket chain Target may hold a clue as to the studio's ongoing plans. Variety reports that Target has reached an agreement with the studio to begin selling a new range of Justice League toys, presenting a number of classic characters in a selection of vintage, retro designs. Now while this obviously isn't a direct tie-in with a soon-to-be-announced movie, it is interesting that Warner has decided to start promoting the...

It seems as though Dan Aykroyd has spent the better part of the last decade giving updates on Ghostbusters 3, and sure enough, a recent appearance on Larry King Now has given him the opportunity to provide yet another report. However, with a script now thought to be well on its way to completion, there is at least something concrete to talk about, in the form of a new batch of plot details. "It’s based on new research that’s being done in particle physics by the young men and women at Columbia University," explains Aykroyd, when the...
