Disney Classics Double Feature Part II: The Jungle Book

12 May 2013 7:02 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

Throughout the year, Thn will look at 53 Walt Disney Animated Classics, from Snow White to Wreck-it Ralph, through the obscurity of Fun And Fancy Free to the second Golden Age of Beauty And The Beast. These are the films the Walt Disney company are most proud of, the ones that hold a special place in our hearts, the ones that still cost a fortune to buy on DVD.

In the second part of this week’s double hitter, we look for some bear necessities with The Jungle Book.

Directed by  Wolfgang Reitherman

1967/ 78 minutes

The Jungle Book marked a return of sorts for Walt Disney; after only being partially involved in One Hundred And One Dalmatians and The Sword In The Stone, the latter’s disappointing performance led Disney to take  a more active role in the film’s story. He threw out storyman Bill Peet’s original script, which closely »

Time Hopping Adventure Awaits In The Treasure Of Lake Kaban

4 May 2013 1:30 PM, PDT | Twitch | See recent Twitch news »

Yes, you are quite correct. The poster for Dmitri Korobkin's The Treasure Of Lake Kaban is hysterically horrible. The dog peeking in from the side is a particularly horrid (by which I mean amazing) touch in that department. But the film itself - if the trailer is to be trusted - actually looks quite good.A time hopping fantasy adventure, The Treasure of Lake Kaban follows a Russian playboy and a Tatar girl searching for a treasure lost for centuries following the sack of Kazan by Ivan The Terrible. Production values are very solid on this one, the overall feel landing somewhere in the area of Stephen Sommers' The Mummy. Take a look at the trailer below....

Trailer for Anton Yelchin's Odd Thomas Supernatural Thriller Leaked Online

3 May 2013 3:33 AM, PDT | WorstPreviews.com | See recent Worst Previews news »

It's been over two years since we first told you about the supernatural thriller "Odd Thomas," starring Anton Yelchin, Willem Dafoe and 50 Cent. And now that the film is planning to make an appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, we have the sales trailer that will be used to sell it. Check out that trailer below. "Odd Thomas" is based on a novel by Dean Koontz and tells of an ordinary man (Yelchin) with an extraordinary gift. Able to communicate with the dead, Odd must use their silent clues in an attempt to prevent a mass catastrophe which threatens everything he holds dear. The new movie is directed by Stephen Sommers (GI Joe, The Mummy). It has yet to be acquired for distribution or get a release date. Trailer: »

New Trailer for Odd Thomas

2 May 2013 11:39 AM, PDT | DailyDead | See recent DailyDead news »

About two years ago, an adaptation of Odd Thomas started filming and we haven’t heard much since, aside from some legal battles between parties involved in financing the film. A sales trailer has now been released and it gives us a pretty good idea of what to expect from the movie.

“The story centers on a short-order cook named Odd Thomas (Anton Yelchin) who can commune with the dead, a secret only his girlfriend (Addison Timlin) and the local police (Willem Dafoe) chief know. The young man can also spot malevolent forces called bodachs, who feed on pain and portent imminent death. When Odd sees them in spades surrounding a stranger, he finds himself in a race against time to avert a catastrophe.”

Based on a series of novels by Dean KoontzOdd Thomas stars Anton Yelchin, Addison Timlin, Willem Dafoe, Patton Oswalt, Curtis Jackson, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and Nico Tortorella. »

Fun Trailer for Anton Yelchin's Supernatural Film Odd Thomas

2 May 2013 10:01 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Odd Thomas looks to be a decently entertaining film! What's so surprising to me about this is that the movie was directed by Stephen Sommers (The Mummy, G.I. Joe). I'm not the biggest fan of his work. It's an adaptation from the Dean Koontz novella, and it stars Anton Yelchin, Addison Timlin, Willem Dafoe, Nico Tortorella, Patton Oswalt, and Gugu Mbatha-Raw. Yelchin plays the title character who lacks ambition, and works as a fry cook in California, but has the gift of seeing and communicating with ghosts.

Producers have been struggling to get the movie released in theaters due to a legal battle, but they are looking to push it at the Cannes Film Festival. They've cut together this fun trailer for the film to show off what they have, and I like what I see.

First Trailer for Odd Thomas Starring Anton Yelchin and Willem Dafoe

2 May 2013 9:01 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

The first trailer for director Stephen Sommers’ adaptation of the Dean Koontz novel Odd Thomas has made its way online.  The story centers on a short-order cook who can commune with the dead, with Anton Yelchin starring as the titular character.  It’s a uniquely “small” film for Sommers following the director’s previous tentpoles like Van Helsing, The Mummy, and G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, but he appears to be delving in similar territory as the more supernatural aspects of Odd Thomas are grounded by a healthy dose of humor and charisma from Yelchin.  The pic looks to strike a vibe similar to Men in Black or Beetlejuice, and it’s a bit too early to tell if it succeeds or not, but Yelchin’s starring turn sure is promising. Hit the jump to watch the trailer.  The film also stars Willem Dafoe, Addison Timlin, Nico Tortorella, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, »

Da Vinci’s Demons, Ep. 1.03: “The Prisoner” wants to play a game

27 April 2013 8:58 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

Da Vinci’s Demons,  Season 1:  Episode 3 – “The Prisoner”

Directed by Jamie Payne

Written by Scott M. Gimple and David S. Goyer

Airs Friday nights at 9 pm on Starz

The conceit of “The Prisoner” is that the episode is structured to parallel a game of Go played by Riario and the eponymous, mysterious prisoner. This conceit, along with the comparisons of a caged bird to Lucrezia, plays out rather heavy-handed and isn’t really necessary for us to understand what’s going on in Da Vinci’s Demons at this point. It’s a freshman mistake made by a freshman series, but the over-the-top nature of it lends itself well to how these first few episodes have been executed. Da Vinci’s Demons is still finding itself as a show in these first three scripts, much like how it took Spartacus: Blood and Sand a little while to get going on the same channel, »

Elementary Hires Arnold Vosloo as Personally Motivated Villain in Two-Hour Finale

26 April 2013 3:51 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »

With Moriarty on the loose and playing a major role in Elementary’s two-hour finale – he may be operating in New York – you would think he would be the big villain Sherlock Holmes would have to tangle with in the CBS procedural’s first season finale. While it’s true Moriarty will have a presence in the finale, I’m thinking he will merely cast his shadow on the events. He will definitely be behind all the madness, but he won’t be directly involved. Instead, Holmes will tango with a different villain, someone who is not to be underestimated. For such a role, an actor who is appropriately frightening is required. Enter Arnold Vosloo.

Best known as the villain Imhotep in The Mummy, Vosloo will portray Christos Theophilus, a Greek shipping magnate with a criminal past and whom Sherlock believes is in league with Moriarty. Executive producer Rob Doherty »

Red-y for a peek at Pretty Little Liars‘ fourth season?

ABC Family has unveiled an all-new poster touting the addictive drama’s upcoming run (bowing June 11) — and we suspect it will leave fans with more than a few questions.

Not unlike previous Pll promo campaigns, the shot finds our four Liars front and center, only this time with each of the gals wearing — gasp! — a red coat. Could one of our leading ladies actually be the jacketed ‘A’ Team leader?

20 Film Stars You Definitely Won’t Remember In 20 Years

24 April 2013 4:09 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

In 20 years time, we’re probably not going to remember 84% of the film stars polluting Hollywood at the moment, let’s be honest. The Adam Sandlers and the Robert Downey Juniors are safe, they have a backing with many established films under their belts.

But there are numerous stars out there who are simply place holders, with nothing special marking them out. If you think about it, there are so many people out there with a pretty face or a good body, but only a small handful will be remembered. Most of them will die off in a couple of years.

It’s not that I’m bitter though. Sure, I’d like to look like Channing Tatum, or earn thousands of pennies for starring in a massive franchise like Twilight. It’s the truth. So many film stars in the movies nowadays are just your flavour of the month. »

Simon Beaufoy To Adapt Those Len Deighton Novels Quentin Tarantino Once Wanted To Tackle

Remember a few weeks ago when we broke down the various projects Quentin Tarantino has flirted with in the past? Well, you can take one of them off the list of possible future endeavours, as a British television production company has beaten Tarantino to the punch.Behind the Brit hit series “Misfits” and co-founded by John Hannah (“Four Weddings and a Funeral,” “The Mummy”), Clerkenwell Films has signed “Slumdog Millionaire” scribe Simon Beaufoy to pen a television adaptation of Len Deighton’s trilogy about the Cold War exploits of British spy Bernard Samson. Beaufoy said, “It is all here: murders, honey-traps and spy swaps, the double-dealing and maneuvering of nations jousting for position at the height of the Cold War, with Bernard Samson, the Bond with brains, giving it an almost Chandleresque sense of cool." It also has a Tarantino-esque sense of cool that we're sure first attracted him to the books. »

‘G.I. Joe: Retaliation' Review: 10 Things You Should Know

29 March 2013 9:30 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

After endless speculation and a last-minute delay that pushed the release back from June 2012 to this week, “G.I. Joe: Retaliation” is finally upon us. Serving as both a sequel to 2009's “G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra” and an effective reboot of the property, refocusing the adaptation to embrace its more cartoonish, oversized origins (as a synergistic comic book / toy / Saturday morning cartoon assault), “G.I. Joe: Retaliation” marks the return of a handful of original cast members (Channing Tatum, Ray Park, and Byung-hun Lee) and the addition of a slew of others (Bruce Willis, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and Adrianne Palicki). The question, of course, is does this deliver in the action department? Jon Chu, most famous for directing the two most profitable entries in the “Step Up” franchise and the 3D Justin Bieber concert movie, is taking over from the venerable Stephen Sommers (“The Mummy”), is an unlikely choice for director. »
