Snow White And The Huntsman Box Office: Strong Midnight Debut
1 June 2012 2:38 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Snow White and the Huntsman movie Snow White and the Huntsman box office: Starring Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth, Charlize Theron, and Sam Claflin, Rupert Sanders‘ Snow White and the Huntsman opened strongly at Thursday midnight screenings in North America, grossing an estimated $1.38m at only 1,092 theaters. That’s nearly 40% more than the $1m earned by the Sam Worthington 3D fantasy Wrath of the Titans at nearly 1,500 sites, and more than twice the take of the Tim Burton / Johnny Depp comedy Dark Shadows ($550k at 1,600 locations). Another box-office comparison: Snow White and the Huntsman‘s $1,266 per-theater average far surpassed that of Will Smith / Tommy Lee Jones’ Men in Black III‘s $694 at 2,232 locations last week. Although it’s true that all things being equal, the fewer the number of theaters the higher the per-theater average should be, that doesn’t explain an 80% higher average for Swath. Not to mention the fact »

Snow White And The Huntsman Clip: Chris Hemsworth/Charlize Theron
11 May 2012 3:28 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Chris Hemsworth, Huntsman: Snow White and the Huntsman Charlize Theron is possessed by the Bette Davis of The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex (and The Virgin Queen) in this Snow White and the Huntsman clip. (Please scroll down.) Chris Hemsworth is the Huntsman who is brave (or stupid or crazy) enough to dare think he has the option not to do what his queen is telling him to. The "she" referred to in the Snow White and the Huntsman clip is, needless to say, Snow White (Kristen Stewart). According to a cool-looking talking mirror, Snow White is destined to surpass the Queen in sheer fairness. The Queen, none too happy, wants Snow to melt away. Snow, however, turns out to be as resilient as she’s white. Directed by Rupert Sanders, Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1. In addition to Charlize Theron (to be seen in Ridley Scott »

Tsr Blog: Who will star in Ready Player One?
11 May 2012 12:42 PM, PDT | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »
This post contains Spoilers if you haven’t read the book and don’t want to miss out on some surprises.
“Ready Player One” is last year’s most inventive sci-fi novel. Like a literary Quentin Tarantino, author Ernest Cline takes tropes from ’80s sci-fi and fantasy movies, video games, and books and blends them into their own unique creation. The story primarily takes place in a Mmorpg that blends video games and the world wide web, called the Oasis. The next step after Snow Crash‘s Metaverse, the Oasis is where most people spend their time in 2044. In a vaguely dystopian world that doesn’t sound too different than the present day, people primarily live their lives through their avatars. They live, work, shop, party and go to school online in the Oasis. It’s a computer generated reality that looks very lifelike, so I imagine a sort of »

Dr. Seuss Biopic to Bring Iconic Characters to Life Alongside Theodor Geisel
10 May 2012 10:40 AM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
The Untitled Dr. Seuss Project is set to bring the iconic characters created by Theodor Geisel to animated life alongside the children's author, who will be played by Johnny Depp in this big screen biopic.
The movie is being described as a cross between Finding Neverland and Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, with The Cat In The Hat and The Lorax sharing screen time alongside a live-action Depp, pulling the audience inside Dr. Seuss' head to see his creative process at work.
Johnny Depp had this to say about the film.
"A lot of writers I know have a tendency to talk to themselves or talk as the character - and then talk as the other character. You know what I mean? They can have a whole dialogue with themselves. There's something interesting about bringing these characters to life and maybe even witnessing him have a relationship with them."

Johnny Depp Says Dr. Seuss Biopic Will Involve Animated & Live-Action Characters
10 May 2012 5:25 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
After making Disney billions of dollars with the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise, Johnny Depp has started writing his own ticket through his Infinitum Nihil shingle, evidenced by "The Rum Diary" and the upcoming "Dark Shadows," which Depp produced and helped develop with director Tim Burton and screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith. Depp is currently shooting "The Lone Ranger," but has several other projects in the works, one of which is a biopic of Theodore Giesel, aka Dr. Seuss, which Depp set up last year to produce and possibly star in. The film is still in very early stages (i.e. no script, but Depp's possible participation means it's being actively developed), but the actor has revealed what he has in mind for the biopic, which could see Seuss interacting with his famous characters.

Picture a combination of Finding Neverland and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
That’s sort of what Johnny Depp has in mind for a new biopic of Dr. Seuss, a.k.a. Theodor Geisel, with the movie plunging into the imagination of the author to see his creative process unfold through interaction with his most famous characters.

Academy Explores “The Development of the Digital Animator” On May 21
2 May 2012 3:16 PM, PDT | WeAreMovieGeeks.com | See recent WeAreMovieGeeks.com news »
Computer-generated motion picture animation from “Vertigo” to “Toy Story” to the 3D spectacles of today will be explored during “The Development of the Digital Animator,” the latest installment of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Marc Davis Celebration of Animation, on Monday, May 21, at 7:30 p.m. at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills. Several pioneers of digital animation will revisit the long path from laboratory to cineplex during a panel moderated by animator and historian Tom Sito.
When “Toy Story” burst onto the scene in 1995, computer-generated imagery was, for many, a bold new technique in animation. However, its lengthy and meticulous development can be traced back to its first public exposure with the mesmerizing title sequence for “Vertigo” (1958). Of equal importance to the technical developments were the influential animators and designers who devised artistic uses for engineering advances.
Scheduled panelists include:

Kristen Stewart/Snow White And The Huntsman Sequel
27 April 2012 3:41 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Kristen Stewart, Snow White and the Huntsman Snow White And The Huntsman Sequel in the Works? As a result of the Hollywood Reporter article, the Internet became abuzz with rumors and speculations that Snow White (Kristen Stewart) would thus fall by the sidelines in the Snow White and the Huntsman sequel(s). Of course, everything is possible. But that would be a bizarre, myopic move on the part of Universal both in terms of story cohesiveness and box office. After all, not only is Snow White the central element in the tale — her very being sets the plot in motion — but Kristen Stewart’s box-office pull in a major movie would be underestimated only by total fools. (Not that Hollywood doesn’t have its large share of those in positions of power.) Those who claim that the Twilight movies would have become worldwide blockbusters with or without Stewart as Bella »

CinemaCon 2012: Classic video game characters to cameo in Disney's 'Wreck-It Ralph'

Remember how cool it was in Who Framed Roger Rabbit to see Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, Droopy Dog, Donald Duck, Daffy Duck, Bettie Boop, Woody Woodpecker, and countless other cartoon icons together?
And wasn’t it kind of awesome to see real-world Malibu Barbie, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head, the green army men, Etch-a-Sketch, Slinky Dog, and the Barrel of Monkeys tossed in among the playthings of Toy Story?
Disney is now uniting characters from an entirely different universe for Wreck-It Ralph, their Nov. 2 animated comedy about a 1980s-era videogame bad guy (voiced by John C. Reilly) who decides he »

Real Life Disney Princesses Take Cosplay to a Whole New World
6 April 2012 1:21 PM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Ever since there have been movie fans, there have been cosplayers.
Sure, back in the day, most of them were kids, but luckily we're past that now and we live in an age where if grown people want to dress up like cartoon characters. Well, more power to 'em.
Especially if they manage to nail the look as perfectly as this group of Disney princesses does.
Courtesy of the folks at Geekologie, we've got some breathtaking pictures of some of Disney's most iconic women as portrayed by real life, flesh and blood grown-ups. And from "Aladdin"'s Jasmine to "Beauty and the Beast"'s Belle to "Who Framed Roger Rabbit"'s Jessica, the photography of artist Ryan Astemendi has helped perfectly create a reality that until now had only lived in our minds and on the big screen.
So check it out. Because dressing up like a princess never looked so good. »

Kristen Stewart/Snow White And The Huntsman Gorgeous TV Spot
27 March 2012 7:39 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Kristen Stewart, Snow White and the Huntsman This Snow White and the Huntsman TV spot (please scroll down) features a few moments not seen before. Or at least that I hadn't seen before. Brief, fleeting moments, but there all the same — e.g., Charlize Theron's Evil Queen Ravenna (my fingers keep going for "Rihanna," but she's in another summer movie, Peter Berg's Battleship) telling Kristen Stewart's Snow White: "I feel that you and I are bound … forever!" Distributed by Universal, Snow White and the Huntsman opens June 1. Also this year, Kristen Stewart co-stars with Garrett Hedlund and Sam Riley in Walter Salles' On the Road, which will quite possibly be screened at the Cannes Film Festival in May. In mid-November, Stewart will be seen for the last time (I assume, though one never knows) as Bella Swan opposite Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner in Bill Condon »

Original X-men Movie Concept Revealed!
26 March 2012 1:54 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
In 2000, director Bryan Singer helped to usher in the new era of comic book movies that we all know and love today with X-Men. The film, starring Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman and Ian McKellan, grossed nearly $300 million and launched a $900 million franchise. But a decade before the film was released, an earlier plan to bring the X-Men to the screen was in the development stages. Would you believe that couple (at the time) James Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow (director of Best Picture winner The Hurt Locker) were attached as producer and director, respectively? It's true, as Chris Claremont, long-time comics writer for the X-Men, revealed at a recent Columbia University Q&A panel.
Claremont said his choices for the roles of Wolverine and Storm were Bob Hoskins and Angela Bassett. In the comics, Wolverine is meant to be a dimunitive tough guy. Claremont felt Hoskins was the right guy for »

Chris Claremont On James Cameron’s Abandoned ‘X-Men’ Film & Bob Hoskins as Wolverine

Bryan Singer’s X-Men is arguably the film that revitalized the superhero genre in Hollywood, after Joel Schumacher all but destroyed it with Batman & Robin. But we almost got a very, very different X-Men film many years prior.
Chris Claremont – probably the most renowned X-Men writer ever, having written everything from “The Phoenix Saga” to “Days of Future Past” – recently reflected on the potential X-Men film from way back when – the one produced by James Cameron (Avatar), directed by Kathryn Bigelow (The Hurt Locker), and starring Bob Hoskins (Who Framed Roger Rabbit) as Wolverine and Angela Bassett (Waiting to Exhale) as Storm.
Courtesy of The Wrap, Claremont said:

Snow White and the Huntsman gets a new trailer
21 March 2012 3:38 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
As the year's first Snow White movie - the Tarsem Singh-directed Mirror Mirror: The Untold Adventures of Snow White - gears up for release, Universal have moved to steal a march on their rival with the release of the second trailer for Rupert Sanders' Snow White and the Hunstman, which focuses on Kristen Stewart's (Twilight) Snow White and Charlize Theron's (Prometheus) evil Queen Ravenna.
Joining Stewart and Theron in the cast of the $70m action fantasy are Chris Hemsworth (The Avengers) as Eric the Huntsman, Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) as Prince William and Lily Cole (The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus) as Rose, while Ian McShane (Jack the Giant Killer), Toby Jones (Captain America: The First Avenger), Ray Winstone (Hugo), Nick Frost (The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn), Bob Hoskins (Who Framed Roger Rabbit?), Eddie Marsan (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows »

Kristen Stewart/Snow White And The Huntsman HD Trailer
19 March 2012 5:39 AM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Kristen Stewart, Snow White and the Huntsman Snow White and the Huntsman is one of the (very) few Hollywood movies I'm eager to watch next summer — Ridley Scott's Prometheus and Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises are the other two that come to mind. Directed by feature-film newcomer Rupert Sanders (formerly a director of commercials) from a screenplay by Killing Season's Evan Daugherty, The Blind Side / The Rookie's John Lee Hancock, and Drive / The Wings of the Dove's Hossein Amini, Snow White and the Huntsman is definitely far, far different from the bowdlerized, sentimentalized Disney fairy-tale we're used to. [See Snow White and the Huntsman trailer #2 below.] Sanders' film, in fact, probably looks and feels more like the original Snow White, as imagined by some creative (and twisted?) mind in the Europe of the Middle Ages, long before the Brothers Grimm put the story down on paper. One crucial difference, of course, is »
