‘Grudge Match’ Could Pit Rocky Balboa vs. Jake La Motta

31 May 2012 3:30 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

In the grand tradition of Freddy vs. Jason and Aliens vs. Predator comes Grudge Match, which pits boxing legends Rocky Balboa and Jake La Motta against each other in an epic battle to the death. Or, probably not. But Grudge Match is an upcoming boxing comedy coming from Tommy Boy and Anger Management director Peter Segal. It tells the story of two retired boxers who step into the ring one last time in order to finally settle an old score. It’s kind of like that episode of The Cosby Show where Combustible Huxtable races Tailwind Turner one final time, but with punching instead of running. The real exciting news about this project isn’t that it’s a boxing comedy about old dudes, though, it’s the names that are being looked at to play the two leads. The Wrap is reporting that Sylvester Stallone and Robert De Niro are currently in negotiations. These »

The Avengers

Directed by: Joss Whedon

Cast: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L. Jackson

Running Time: 2 hrs 22 mins

Rating: PG-13

Release Date: May 4, 2012

Plot: Earth’s mightiest heroes (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Black Widow, and Hawkeye) join together to defeat an evil space alien (Hiddleston) from destroying the world.

Who’S It For? If you’re the kind of moviegoer who saw the previous Marvel flicks leading up to this (Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor, The Incredible Hulk), then you owe it to those previous commitments to see what it all adds up to. However, if you haven’t seen any of those aforementioned movies, this one is still a blast to experience. Basically, you won’t enjoy this movie if you absolutely hate spectacle in your entertainment.

Expectations: There’s a lot on the line for co-writer/director Joss Whedon, »

The Road to The Avengers: The Countdown Begins

17 April 2012 7:10 AM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Luke Owen sets off down the road to The Avengers as Flickering Myth's countdown begins...

Crossover movies. They're every fanboys dream. Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman, Alien vs. Predator, Freddy vs. Jason. Many have been rumoured, only a few have come to fruition.

Marvel didn’t always have the best times when it came to movies. Unlike DC Comics’ movie success with Superman and Batman, Marvel had to settle for lame adaptations of their characters, like the 1994 Roger Corman-produced Fantastic Four that took less than a month to film, or Captain America in 1990, which featured an Italian Red Skull.

Also unlike DC, Marvel didn’t sell the rights to their characters to one source. Instead they palmed them around to anyone who would take an interest, with a deal that if the studio did’t make a movie within a certain amount of time, the rights would revert back to »

Friday the 13th: Top 13 Wtf Moments

11 April 2012 8:05 PM, PDT | DreadCentral.com | See recent Dread Central news »

As much as I love it, the Friday the 13th series isn’t exactly bound by strong continuity. Jason’s look fluctuates like the weather, people flock to Camp Crystal Lake in droves, seemingly unaware that it never turns out well for those involved, and Why does the camp look like it’s in a different state for every film (don’t answer that)?

That’s not to even begin trying to piece together a strict sense of passing time throughout the Paramount-era films. Ever try? Dating everything out, the best you can do is place Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood in the year 1999 or 2000 – which is amazingly problematic to say the least considering Kevin Blair runs around in denim the entire movie.

Along the way there have been many Wtf moments. Characters disappear, others reappear. People stumble in out of nowhere just to be killed and then forgotten about. »

Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes to take on the Halloween franchise?

4 April 2012 2:20 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Not content with rebooting three of the most popular horror series of all-time in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street, it now seems as if Platinum Dunes are to take control of the Halloween franchise, with reports emerging from Bloody Disgusting that Michael Bay's production company are in talks to pick up producing duties from The Weinstein Company, who initially relaunched the series back in 2007 with director Rob Zombie's remake and its 2009 sequel, Halloween II.

It had been thought that the Weinsteins would produce a third installment - in 3D, naturally - with screenwriters Todd Farmer and Patrick Lussier (My Bloody Valentine, Drive Angry) set to pen the script. However, it now seems that Dimension Films have turned to reboot specialists Platinum Dunes, who are also responsible for remakes of The Amityville Horror and The Hitcher, along with the upcoming Ninja Turtles and The Monster Squad. »

[Special Feature] What A Nightmare! Ranking The 9 'Elm Street' Movies!

26 March 2012 8:24 AM, PDT | bloody-disgusting.com | See recent Bloody-Disgusting.com news »

After last weeks Dream Warriors Script To Scream I found that I had a lot of leftover thoughts racing in my head regarding the Nightmare On Elm Street franchise in general. Was Part 3 better than Part 1? How did they fail so badly with the remake? Is scary Freddy better than funny Freddy? Why does Freddys Dead even exist? Of course, some of these answers are self evident. Nevertheless, with all of these thoughts about the series cluttering my brain, I decided to embark on my own personal ranking of the films in the franchise (including Freddy Vs. Jason). So here they are, ranked in the simple order of which ones Id prefer to watch over the others. »

'Friday the 13th' Remake Scribes Cash In On Success With Untitled Horror Project At Paramount

23 March 2012 8:39 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Taking impressive box office receipts ($91 million worldwide take on a $19 mil. budget) over the scathing reviews, Paramount has given the screenwriting team of the 2009 “Friday The 13th” reboot, Damian Shannon and Mark Swift, development deals for an as-yet-untitled horror project at their studio.

The duo, also known for writing “Freddy vs. Jason,” are keeping details of their pitch heavily under wraps, with THR reporting the only known detail of the project being its high school setting. However, unless the two define the horror genre as peculiarly as when “Synecdoche, New York” ended up being Charlie Kaufman's long-rumored fright flick entry, you should have a pretty good idea of what to expect. Mary Parent of Disruption Entertainment will produce, luckily having no affiliation with Platinum Dunes, that wellspring of nihilistic, brown- and red-filtered slasher reboots like “Nightmare on Elm Street” and “Texas Chainsaw Massacre.”

Given their history, one should still »

Friday the 13th Writers Prep New Project At Paramount

23 March 2012 5:32 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Friday the 13th has proven lucky for screenwriting team Damian Shannon and Mark Swift, who grabbed the attention of horror fans in 2003 with their mash-up slasher showdown Freddy vs. Jason. The pair later secured their reputations with another Voorhees offering, the 2009 reboot of Friday the 13th. Both titles were moderately budgeted box office successes, so Paramount, which produced the latter, is giving Shannon and Swift a chance to spawn an original work of terror. Heat Vision reveals these penning partners will not only write the proposed picture, but also make their directorial debut on the presently untitled project. At this time details on the in-development offering are being safely guarded, but we do know that the writing team's pitch involved a story with a high school setting. Considering the backdrop and their resumes thus far, it seems certain that this unnamed horror will be a slasher flick. As a horror »

Friday The 13th Writers Damian Shannon and Mark Swift to Direct High School Horror Movie

22 March 2012 8:40 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

The Friday the 13th reboot made a big splash in February 2009 when it premiered to $41 million.  It arguably made an even bigger splash the next weekend when it dropped an astounding 80%.  But hey, if you can score that opening weekend, you will keep finding work.  Friday the 13th writers Damian Shannon and Mark Swift are even promoted to directors on their next project, an untitled horror pitch they sold to paramount.  Details are under wraps, but Heat Vision says the story is set in high school, the most terrifying of all settings.  Shannon and Swift* also wrote Freddy vs. Jason---given such experience with horror icons, I wonder if they'll try to introduce one of their own. The duo is now at work on the script for their directorial debut.  Mary Parent (Role Models) is producing through her Disruption Entertainment banner. *Now that's a fantastic screenwriting duo name. »
