Your next box set: Supernatural

11 hours ago | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »

A pair of beefy brothers touring the Us in a cool car, fighting monsters – this is lowbrow telly at its best

Sam and Dean Winchester have followed in their father's footsteps, entering the family business to track down and dispose of all things supernatural. Throughout each of the seven series of Supernatural, we follow these swarthy, squabbling siblings as they crisscross America in their Chevrolet 66 Impala, a beautiful vintage motor that becomes something of a star in its own right. The boys investigate paranormal events, local legends and even full-scale celestial war. On the way, they see their dad die, sell their souls, go to hell and back (literally), kiss a lot of women, and do battle with demons, angels, vampires and ghosts, almost all with ghastly teeth. At one point, they go toe-to-toe with Lucifer himself.

It's a superb mash-up of Buffy and The X-Files, stomach-churningly gory and all »

Another Look Behind-the-Scenes of Piranha 3Dd

15 hours ago | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

Tomorrow should be a very interesting day for the Weinsteins as Piranha 3Dd (review) is set to open on less than 100 screens across the States. What's so interesting about that? It will also be available on VOD platforms simultaneously. Can this day and date model work?

Who knows. For now, however, we have a couple of new videos and the official word on this unique release method:

Starz Digital Media, the digital and on-demand licensing arm of Starz Media, LLC, and Dimension Films announced that Piranha 3Dd, the sequel to the surprise 2010 hit, Piranha 3D, will be available on demand and online for VOD rentals day and date with its June 1st theatrical release. The Piranha 3Dd day and date theatrical/VOD launch is the first Dimension Films release to venture into this trendsetting release model, the first collaboration between Dimension Films and Starz Digital Media, and the first ever available for a 3D movie. »

Cool Videos: Could Back to the Future drive an actor insane?

18 hours ago | JoBlo.com | See recent JoBlo news »

Back To The Future is one of the seminal movies from my childhood. I remember watching the original on VHS and seeing the second and the third in the theater on opening day. It is a classic and will always remain part of pop culture. But, what if there was a reboot of the Back To The Future franchise? As ill-advised a move as I think that would be, it begs an interesting discussion. Who could fill Marty McFly's shoes? Who could play a Doc as perfectly as Christopher Lloyd? And, most »

“Marty McFly” Street Art May Be The Pinnacle Of Human Creation

30 May 2012 11:22 AM, PDT | BestWeekEver | See recent BestWeekEver news »

Here’s the latest amazing painting from the mysterious celebrity-themed street art parodist Hanksy – A portrait of a very literal “Marty McFly”: How has no other artist thought to paint this in the entire millenia-long history of human artistic expression? A semi-significant portion of this time was, admittedly, before Back To The Future existed, but that’s no excuse. I’m seriously asking. Hello, McLiteralfly??? (Attempts to knock on fly’s head, fly flies away, gets onto tiny hoverboard, hovers over water, hoverboard stops, fly flies away anyway because it’s a fly.) Free Back To The Future 4 script right there, by the way. (Bowery Boogie via The Daily What) »

Pop Up Screens Returns For A Summer of Cinematic Fun

30 May 2012 6:54 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

After the roaring success of its inaugural weekend last summer, Pop Up Screens is finally back with a fantastic line up of outdoor, open-air weekend screenings throughout the summer around London.

Last May saw Ravenscourt Park in Hammersmith play host to three nights of pure cinematic gold, all screened to huge crowds in the park. On Friday Ron Burgundy and his boys held court over the park as audiences quoted their way through Anchorman. Saturday we braved the elements to watch The Dude try and solve the mystery of the missing Bunny Lebowski. The Big Lebowski’s tipple – The White Russian – was also on sale at the bar. While on Sunday we feasted on Twinkies as a warm, starless night provided the perfect atmosphere for Ghostbusters.

This year, however, Pop Up has upped the ante and are putting on 7 weekends of film fun. Watching films on a giant inflatable screen »

The Conversation: Are the Plot Holes in 'Men in Black III' More Illogical Than in Most Time Travel Movies?

29 May 2012 6:00 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »

Many movies have plot holes, and time travel movies typically have more holes than others, and Men in Black III has even more holes than most time travel movies. So how is it that so many people forgive an unnecessary sequel as simply being illogical yet fun? This is a question that's bigger than any having to do with the narrative of the movie, which understandably resembles swiss cheese because of a scatterbrained script development process and filming beginning before the plot was even finalized. Admittedly, MIB3 is enjoyable at points (the few featuring Michael Stuhlbarg), but for me the real disappointment is that nothing in the movie is conceptually or visually fresh to warrant its existence. It's just Austin Powers 2 meets Back to the Future 2 meets the bare...

Mib III Pulled In Less Than Mib? Here’s 5 Things That Would Have Made Mib III Out Of This World

29 May 2012 1:10 PM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »

In case you live in some kind of maximum security prison on the moon and only just got internet access today, Men In Black III opened this weekend! While we know you and your sunburned relatives saw it, the threequel to Will Smith‘s career launching film allegedly only pulled in $70 million in the U.S. Despite the price of 3D tickets and Smith’s established reputation as an eerily youthful box office guarantee, that’s actually less than what the first Mib pulled made its first weekend. So what could have drawn an audience to Mib III of the same size and intensity that flocked to Mib? We don’t know much about movies, but having seen the flick, our spoilery suggestions include:

We came for aliens, not time travel! If we wanted time travel with a few aliens sprinkled in, we would watch Back To The Future and »

5 Breakout Performers & Directors From The 2012 Cannes Film Festival

29 May 2012 12:31 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

One of the greatest things about film festivals, something that can even get you through the worst films, the lack of sleep, and the terrible B.O. of your fellow moviegoers, is the chance to discover new talent. You'll see absolute newcomers blast off into the stratosphere, or relatively well-known faces suddenly show off what they've always been capable of, and it's never less than a thrill.

And this year's Cannes Film Festival was no exception. With the festival now in the rear-view mirror, we've picked out five major talents who broke out at this year's festival, and whom we're certain we'll be hearing more from in the years to come. Check them out below, and if you were in Cannes, feel free to weigh in with your own suggestions too.

Next Factor Q&A: 'High School' Star Matt Bush

28 May 2012 7:00 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

Matt Bush has been a hot commodity since he was featured in the 2009 Jesse Eisenberg comedy "Adventureland." Soon afterward, he landed a starring role on the TBS comedy "Glory Daze" as a freshman rushing a fraternity.

Now 26, Bush has the pot-centric comedy "High School" coming out. He plays valedictorian Henry Burke, who conspires with a friend to get his entire school high to sabotage a drug test so he doesn't lose his scholarship. Bush also has "Piranha 3Dd" jiggling its way into theaters, and the Clint Eastwood starrer "Trouble With the Curve" just around the bend.

We chatted with Bush about his various roles, which superhero he'd love to play, and what exactly he was smokin' on set.

"High School" was finished a few years ago. What are you most excited for people to see now that it's finally coming out?

Yeah, we shot this a while ago, three years. »

Back To The Future, Ghostbusters and Gremlins Art

27 May 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Back to the Future, Ghostbusters and Gremlins are three of my favorite films from the 80's. Artist Andy Fox seems to like them to because he was inspired to do these three pieces of art. For more of his work, visit his Store.

 I love the use of the hot pink and neon colors with the black. Which is your favorite piece of art?

'NYC 22's' Stark Sands: 'I would love to do a movie musical'

27 May 2012 11:00 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Stark Sands, who plays Kenny McLaren on CBS' "NYC 22," was about 13 and traveling with his parents on a school break when he helped an older woman with her computer.

It was Anne Bancroft. "All of a sudden, Mel Brooks (the late Bancroft's husband) walked in and says, 'How ya doing, kid? Happy New Year!' " Sands says as he beams at the memory.

That was also about the same time Sands realized he wanted to be an actor.

"I did plays in elementary school," he tells Zap2it, "the same stuff everybody did. In middle school I found out not only did I like it, but I was good at it. I did the musicals and became the guy who would get the lead in the show every year."

His parents took the family from Dallas on exotic vacations, and after college in California, Sands stayed in Los Angeles, »

The 'Men in Black 3' ending makes no sense, no sense at all

25 May 2012 9:05 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Men in Black 3 had a troubled production cycle. Filming shut down for several months. A rotating cast of screenwriters tried to fix a screenplay that was never quite finished. Will Smith started a minor war with Lower Manhattan, thanks to a trailer big enough to qualify as a sovereign state. All the bad press prepared you for a travesty: a mess like John Carter, or an overlong wreck like Waterworld, or an exercise in tonal incoherence like Jonah Hex. But for the most part, Men in Black 3 does not show any signs of being a runaway production. It’s bright. »

Watch Men In Black III Director Barry Sonnenfeld Talk About How He Was Influenced By Back To The Future

24 May 2012 8:22 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Time travel is a popular device in science-fiction, but it.s also a very tricky one to portray correctly. With so much science and so many rules at play, including Chaos Theory and parallel universes, it.s a hard concept to get your mind around. So when director Barry Sonnenfeld was making Men in Black III there was only one real place for him to look: Back To The Future. At a recent press event in Los Angeles I had the chance to sit down with the filmmaker one-on-one to discuss his new film. Watch the video below to hear not only about how Back To The Future influenced the movie, but also how 3D came into the picture and how he got Michael Stuhlbarg to talk as fast as he does.

50 Celebrity Names That Sound Like Game Of Thrones Characters

24 May 2012 5:03 PM, PDT | BestWeekEver | See recent BestWeekEver news »

New Party Game! In apropos of nothing, we’ve spent the last two days coming up with Celebrities Whose Names Sound Like Game Of Thrones Characters – meaning, actors, musicians, athletes, and other famous people whose real-life names contain some combination of fantasy-ness, pseudo-ethnicity, and juuust-slightly-offitude worthy of a bonafide Westeros inhabitant. Here are our favorite 50 Celebrity Names That Sound Like Game Of Thrones Characters, along with descriptions of who their names would be on the show (not who they’d be, just the names), ranked from 50 to 1 in order of Game Of Throneyness. Leave your own suggestions in the comments – we stupidly can’t get enough of these: 50. Baz Luhrmann Director of Moulin Rouge; Shifty mage apprentice to the warlock Pyat Pree 49. Jurnee Smollet Played Jess on Friday Night Lights; Homely Winterfell commoner who attracts Theon’s affections 48. Joaquin Phoenix Star of Gladiator and Walk The Line; Standard-Bearer of House »

Men in Black 3D (PG)

24 May 2012 4:00 PM, PDT | The Independent | See recent The Independent news »

Surprise of the week. Perhaps it's only because expectations were so low going in that this second MiB sequel felt like, at times, improbable fun. The return of Smith and Jones as Agent J and Agent K seemed destined to be a matter of duty rather than pleasure, which may be why the older partner, looking his years, spends so much time offscreen. No matter, as it happens, because this film is borrowing from Back to the Future and sending Agent J on a rescue mission. »

Piranha 3Dd Weighs its Awards Potential in a New Featurette

24 May 2012 3:38 PM, PDT | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »

Dimensions Films has released, through Funny or Die, a special behind-the-scenes look at their upcoming Piranha 3Dd, heralding it as one of the most important films in the history of cinema. Check it out in the player below!

After the terror unleashed on Lake Victoria in Piranha 3D, the pre-historic school of blood thirsty piranhas are back. This time, no one is safe from the flesh eating fish as they sink their razor sharp teeth into the visitors of summer's best attraction, The Big Wet Water Park. Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future) reprises his role as the eccentric piranha expert with survivor Paul Scheer ("The League") and a partially devoured Ving Rhames (Pulp Fiction) back for more fish frenzy. David Hasselhoff trades in the sandy beaches of "Baywatch" to be a celebrity lifeguard at the racy water park. Prepare for double the terror, double the action and double the »
