'Walking with Dinosaurs' Trailer Stays Real with No Talking Creatures
1 May 2013 7:48 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
What started as an arena show is now coming to the big screen in 20th Century Fox's Walking with Dinosaurs 3D. In what feels like a hybrid narrative and documentary feature with breathtaking visuals, the film chronicles the lives of two young dinosaurs as they grow up, hoping to follow in their father's footsteps, and become respected creatures of the prehistoric wild. These dinosaurs don't talk, but it's clear there's some cutesy kind of humor and liberties taken with the dinosaurs. And while the animation isn't terrible, it doesn't always look like it's top notch work. Still, this could be cool to see in theaters. Watch! First trailer for Barry Cook & Neil Nightingale's Walking with Dinosaurs 3D, originally from MSN UK: Walking with Dinosaurs 3D is directed by Barry Cook (Arthur Christmas) and Neil Nightingale (Enchanted Kingdom 3D) and written by John Collee (Happy Feet) and Theodore Thomas (Walt & El Grupo).

Photo: Robin Williams Looks Unrecognizable
12 April 2013 11:07 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Robin Williams was photographed in Los Angeles this week, and the acclaimed actor looked ... different.
Williams was almost unrecognizable when catching a departing flight from Los Angeles International Airport (Lax) on Thursday. The 61-year-old actor wore a pageboy cap and sunglasses while handling his baggage. Bystanders might not have even known it was the "Mrs. Doubtfire" star right next to them.
Although he has kept a relatively low profile since 2006's "Night at the Museum" and "Happy Feet," Williams is currently working on a new project in Georgia.
North Druid Hills-Briarcliff Patch (which, like The Huffington Post, is owned by AOL) reports that Williams is currently in Tucker, Ga., filming a holiday comedy, "A Friggin' Christmas Miracle," with Lauren Graham and Joel McHale.
The "Mork & Mindy" actor is also heading back to the small screen with a new CBS sitcom, "Crazy Ones," for the 2013-2014 season. The half-hour comedy focuses »

D.J. Cotrona on George Miller's Cancelled Justice League
14 March 2013 | Comingsoon.net | See recent Comingsoon.net news »
A few years ago, Warner Bros. had plans to bring to the big screen George Miller's ( Mad Max , Happy Feet ) tale on DC Comics' Justice League . Starring in this month's G.I. Joe: Retaliation , D.J. Cotrona spoke with ComingSoon.net about the cancelled project, in which he would have played the part of Superman. "That was a long slog," he says. "We were playing with that for about a year. That was during the writer's strike time and it started and it stopped. That was a big bummer. I was really, really excited to work with George Miller and the script was really, really good. The stuff that Weta was doing was amazing. It's just a shame that we didn't get to finish that because it was going to be really, really cool." Other cast members were rumored »

Blu Crew: Mad Max Trilogy Coming to Blu-Ray in June!
25 February 2013 11:59 PM, PST | Cinelinx | See recent Cinelinx news »
The Mad Max series, which propelled Mel Gibson into stardom, and created one of the most striking examples of a post-apocalyptic world, is finally getting the blu-ray collection it so rightfully deserves.
I love the Mad Max franchise. I have ever since I was young (and probably shouldn't have been watching them). It remains one of the more interesting apocalypse settings I've seen in a film, and it's social commentary remains as powerful today as it was back then. So I was pretty excited when the press release announcing the trilogy coming to blu-ray in a collection (on June 4th) came across my inbox. Here's the press release for the details:
Mad Max, the sci-fi franchise that introduced Mel Gibson to the world, will come together for the first time as a Blu-ray collection when Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (Wbhe) debuts the Mad Max Trilogy on June 4th.

'Jimmy Kimmel Live': Matt Damon steals the show... Literally
24 January 2013 11:57 PM, PST | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
For years now, Jimmy Kimmel has ended his show by apologizing to Matt Damon. It seems that they're always just running out of time before the actor can come on for an interview.
Well now Matt Damon has had his revenge. On the night of Thursday, Jan. 24, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" had Damon as a guest for the first time. Only that's not exactly what happened...
As the above clip shows, Damon wasn't just on the show to chat. He was there for revenge.
And oh, it was sweet! From Matt Damon's clever hosting skills (if that whole movie career goes kaput, he definitely has a second career in late night) to the all-star testimonials (Oprah! De Niro! Jimmy Kimmel's parents!) to a couch filled with Oscar nominees and winners, everything on the night of "Jimmy Kimmel Sucks!" was perfect.
Just like Matt Damon himself, when you think about it. »

Robin Williams to Lead 'Boulevard' Drama from Director Dito Montiel
10 January 2013 9:15 AM, PST | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Though his last film Son of No One didn't fare too well with the box office or critics, director Dito Montiel has a new film at Lionsgate awaiting a release date called Empire State, and a future project with an interesting lead actor. Variety has word that Robin Williams will lead Montiel's drama Boulevard, a drama written by Douglas Soesbe which follows a devoted husband in a marriage of convenience until a run-in with a guarded young man forces him to come to terms with his own secrets. The film will also mark a big debut for up and coming actor Roberto Aguire, who has an uncredited role in Struck by Lightning. Williams has been pretty low key on the big screen following Old Dogs in 2009, but he did reprise his voice role in Happy Feet 2. In addition, Williams also had two great guest appearances on the FX comedy »
