Saul Bass title sequences: ten of the best
8 May 2013 6:56 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
Saul Bass was the master of the title sequence, working on such films as Anatomy of a Murder, North by Northwest and Goodfellas. Here's ten of his finest
Saul Bass trained as a graphic designer, and was commissioned by director Otto Preminger to put together a poster for his 1954 opera/musical Carmen Jones. Preminger was so impressed he asked him to create a title sequence too, and Bass went on to specialise in the area, resulting in memorable collaborations with Preminger, Alfred Hitchcock and Martin Scorsese.

Bass made a splash with the 1955 Preminger study of heroin addiction, moving paper cutouts around to suggest needles, veins and arms. The stonking theme, composed by Elmer Bernstein, helped.

Keanu Reeves Does Something Completely Different
22 April 2013 8:05 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Keanu Reeves is putting his "Matrix" skills where his mouth is, directing a new martial arts movie called "Man of Tai Chi." The first trailer for the film has made its way online, and while we don't learn many specifics about its plot, the movie is certainly heavy on high-voltage action.
The Chinese-language "Man of Tai Chi" marks Reeves' directorial debut, as well as one of two movies this year that feature the "Speed" actor in roles centering on Asian fighting traditions. The other is "47 Ronin," about 18th-century Japanese samurai, which is slated for a December release.
What we do know about the plot is that Reeves plays a villain who forces people to fight each other to their death. Beyond that, the most we get about "Tai Chi" comes via voice-over from Reeves: "How would you like to test how good you are? No referees, no rules, pure fighting, »

Adam Sandler Reunites with Director Frank Coraci for a New Comedy
8 March 2013 11:47 AM, PST | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »
Adam Sandler is teaming up with frequent collaborator Frank Coraci for an untitled blind date comedy at Warner Bros. Frank Coraci previously directed Adam Sandler in The Wedding Singer, The Waterboy, and Click.
The story centers on a couple's horrible blind date that ends up getting worse and worse. They find themselves stuck in a family resort with their children from previous marriages. Rodney Rothman is rewriting the screenplay from an original draft by Ivan Menchell and Clare Sera.
Last month, we reported that Adam Sandler wanted to reunite with his The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates co-star Drew Barrymore for this project. The actress' involvement has not been confirmed at this time.
Mike Karz will produce alongside Adam Sandler's Happy Madison, with Josie Rosen executive producing. The filmmakers are hoping to find a female lead soon so production can get under way this May.

When the absence of color enhances the experience
1 March 2013 11:57 AM, PST | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »
AMC is currently rerunning the first and second seasons of The Walking Dead in black and white each Thursday night. For a fanbase that is growing tired of the channel over marketing the show and trying to ring every possible ounce of viewership it can I’m sure many are turned off by this “gimmick”. Of course the comic book is in black and white which is where AMC got the idea, or excuse, to cheaply bring new interest in airings of older episodes. Anyone willing to go beyond the commerciality of B&W Walking Dead could be in for a real treat however because the show is better without color.
Color and film has had a long and interesting history. Silent cinema died almost an immediate death with the advent of sound. It’s not hard to understand why as, although there were numerous fantastic works during the silent era, »

Owen Wilson And Vince Vaughn Reunite In The Internship's First Trailer
13 February 2013 12:16 PM, PST | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
When you look at Wedding Crashers from the outside, it really didn't look like much. Starring Vince Vaughn, who had just been in Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Be Cool, and Owen Wilson, who had just come off Meet the Fockers and Around the World in 80 Days, it looked like a dumb comedy with an insane premise that could never work. Then of course, it became a hit-- and gave us reason to trust Wilson and Vaughn, even when they didn't seem to be doing something all that promising. So we're keeping this in mind as we look ahead to The Internship, which just revealed its first trailer online. Take a look below: As you might notice the trailer was posted on YouTube-- a Google-owned site-- by none other than Google Play, marking the beginning of what I"m sure will be a ton of corporate synergy in promoting »
The Best of Warner Bros. 20 Film Collection: Best Pictures DVD Review
11 February 2013 5:26 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
Double-dipping is a dirty word among movie fans, who have grown increasingly weary of shelling out more money for a multiple versions of a given film. There can be a benefit to the practice, however, especially for consumers eager to pick up multiple movies quickly and efficiently without a lot of fuss. Warner Bros – one of the most notorious practitioners of double-dipping – has recently dived into its archives for a series of “Best of” DVD Collections. Their Best Picture compilation – consisting of 20 films that snagged the top trophy their respective years – ranks as one of the most reliable, marred by a few embarrassing hiccups. Hit the jump for my full review. The very nature of the set binds Warners’ hands a little bit as far as movie selection goes. Their Romance DVD set and Musicals DVD set stick to the classics and keep the flashes in the pan to a minimum. »

DVD Review: ‘Best of Warner Bros. 20 Film Collection: Best Pictures’
2 February 2013 6:15 PM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – From “The Broadway Melody” to “The Departed,” Warner Bros. has collected twenty of their most beloved films in one DVD box set called “Best of Warner Bros. 20 Film Collection: Best Pictures.” Yes, all 20 films in this set on 23 discs won the Oscar for Best Picture. What better way to lead up to the upcoming 2013 Academy Awards than to burn through 20 of the past winners?
DVD Rating: 4.5/5.0
It’s tempting to rank them although how does one really compare “Grand Hotel” to “The Departed” to “Gigi” to “Amadeus”? They’re such different films. Sure, I have my faves in this set and they’re probably the common faves — “Casablanca,” “Amadeus,” ” “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” “Unforgiven,” “The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King” — but I’m also happy to have lesser-known films in my collection like “Mutiny on the Bounty,” “Mrs. Miniver,” and “The Best Years of Our Lives. »

Box Office: Why Did All-Star Comedy 'Movie 43' Stumble?
28 January 2013 5:16 AM, PST | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
Opening in seventh place this weekend with just $5.0 million on 2,043 screens, "Movie 43" marks one of the poorest wide-release openings of Hugh Jackman's career. Or Kate Winslet's. Or Halle Berry's. Or Emma Stone's. Or those of Elizabeth Banks, Kristen Bell, Kate Bosworth, Gerard Butler, Josh Duhamel, Anna Faris, Richard Gere, Terrence Howard, Greg Kinnear, Johnny Knoxville, Justin Long, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Chloe Moretz, Liev Schreiber, Seann William Scott, Jason Sudeikis, Uma Thurman, or Naomi Watts. How does a comedy with so much star power -- more than two dozen big-name celebrities earned top billing, including at least two past Oscar winners and two current nominees -- and still fail to open big? You can't exactly call "Movie 43" a failure; it reportedly cost just $6 million to make, with all the actors working for union scale and pre-sold deals with entities like Netflix for its ancillary rights.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Says Being Governor Made Him A Better Actor
16 January 2013 6:12 AM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
He's back, and as far as he's concerned, he's better. This month, Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in "The Last Stand," and the 65-year-old says that he just gets better with age.
"I got older. I got wiser. I experienced certain things as governor that helped me with my performance," Schwarzenegger said in an interview with CNN. "I think I'm better today than when I left the acting field."
When Schwarzenegger was elected governor of California in 2003, he stopped making movies. 2004's "Around the World in 80 Days" was his last film until he completed his term in office and made "The Expendables" and "The Expendables 2."
Schwarzenegger's current role in "The Last Stand" is his first lead role since his stint as governor. While he laments his age in the trailer for the film, "The Last Stand" is being heralded as a classic Schwarzenegger action film, one reviewer calling it "the sort »
