Shock Interview: Adi's Alec Gillis on Harbinger Down and the Kickstarter Campaign
15 May 2013 8:52 AM, PDT | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »
Kickstarter has been a hot topic lately. The creator of Veronica Mars used it to raise more than $4 million to fund a movie version of the show. Zach Braff has raised more than $2 million to fund his next directorial effort (following Garden State). There has been heated debate about whether or not people with established relationships in Hollywood (Warner Bros. will be releasing the Mars movie) or significant wealth (Braff reportedly made $350,000 per episode during the final season of Scrubs) using Kickstarter aligns with the original intentions of the crowdfunding site.
Now, filmmakers with years of experience in horror are using Kickstarter in an effort to fund a new sci-fi/horror feature. You may not know their names, but you definitely know their work. Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr. operate Amalgamated Dynamics, Inc. They have created practical animatronic and makeup effects for Tremors, Wolf, Starship Troopers, Alien 3, Alien: Resurrection, »
Joss Whedon Discusses His Crappy Alien: Resurrection Film
19 April 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
I remember getting my hands on Joss Whedon's script for Alien: Resurrection back in the mid 90's and I thought it was great! I was so excited for the movie that was going to come out, then I saw it, and it sucked ass. They ended up changing a lot of stuff, but Whedon's script was still good. He ended up getting a story credit on the film to which he says, "There is always going to be a shitty Alien movie out there. A shitty Alien movie with my name on it."
In a recent interview with Total Film Magazine the Avengers director talked about Prometheus and reflects on his own contribution the franchise saying,
Yes, I did see Pro-meaningless," he joked. "In all seriousness, Alien: Resurrection was, I thought, the lowest I could ever feel. And then they cancelled Firefly. 'Yup, there you go. That's me feeling even lower. »

Paul W.S. Anderson's 'Pompeii' Gets a Distributor
10 April 2013 8:00 AM, PDT | GetTheBigPicture.net | See recent Get The Big Picture news »
The best movie that Paul W.S. Anderson ever made, by far, was Mortal Kombat. Damn, isn't that a sad statement? He's the director, in case you didn't know, of Alien vs. Predator, three of the Resident Evils, and that godawful Three Musketeers steampunk movie. His next project still manages to fascinate me though: Pompeii. It's historical drama about the ill-fated Roman city, the one that wound up buried under a flood of volcanic lava. »

Han Solo as a lizard? The inside scoop on 'The Star Wars' from Dark Horse
8 April 2013 9:32 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
The Jedi universe wasn’t built in a day and the construction process had some strange stages. If you thumb through the 1974 draft of the George Lucas script for The Star Wars (as it was called then) you’ll see a funhouse version of the most famous space epic that includes a warrior named Starkiller and a reptilian alien named Han Solo.
That version of Star Wars has been a relatively obscure artifact, but now it will get a spotlight of its own in a major adaptation by Dark Horse Comics that maps out a tale that’s both familiar and totally alien. »

Kiefer Sutherland to Terrorize Pompeii
20 March 2013 7:35 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
The 3-D, 79 A.D.-set Pompeii recently nabbed Mad Men's Jared Harris and Game of Thrones's Kit Harington. Now it's got a villain in Kiefer Sutherland, who should prove as adept at playing a Roman senator/slaver gunning for Harington's true love (Emily Browning) as he did while saving America on TV all those years. Resident Evil and Alien vs. Predator's Paul W.S. Anderson is directing. »

Jared Harris Joins Paul W.S. Anderson’s Pompeii
13 March 2013 9:10 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Jared Harris has joined the lava-story-turned-love-story Pompeii. Directed by Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil, Alien vs. Predator), the 79 A.D.-set film will star Game of Thrones's Kit Harington as a slave/gladiator and Sucker Punch's Emily Browning as his true love. Harris will play the true love's father. Pompeii was pitched as a big 3-D adventure, so the former Lane Pryce is on exactly the right track if he wants to distance himself from Mad Men. »

Video Game Review: ‘Capcom Arcade Cabinet Pack 1’ is Over Before it Starts
13 March 2013 8:50 AM, PDT | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – In theory, retro-game re-releases for modern consoles are great. Between upgrades in hardware architecture and Os, format changes from cartridges, to CDs, to DVDs, to digital, and, sadly, the decay of the American arcade, the ability for gamers with an eye towards history to sit back and enjoy a classic is somewhat tricky these days. The unique problem of retro gaming in particular is that, unlike movies, there isn’t really a way to stumble across a classic on Friday night while channel surfing, like you can with movies and television. How many people have wandered into the basic cable wilds at 1:17am and discovered the magic of “Casino” on TNT, or came in about a quarter of the way through “The Shawshank Redemption” on TBS, becoming amazed by movies they would have otherwise never sought out, or known to exist? Simply put, gaming doesn’t have syndication. »

Horror Killers We'd Like to See Face Off
7 March 2013 10:00 AM, PST | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
While films that pit notorious horror icons together to ‘face off’ are far from classic cinema, there is no denying that they can be fun if taken as the mindless entertainment they are intended to be. When Freddy vs. Jason was released, it surpassed expectations by grossing over $80 million domestically. The film almost spawned a sequel, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash. The follow up never came to fruition, since Sam Raimi wanted to maintain the rights to the Evil Dead franchise. A year later, we saw another epic pairing with Avp: Alien vs. Predator, which also grossed an estimated $80+ million. Then, in 2007, we saw Avpr: Alien vs. Predator: Requiem hit the market. And, of course, who could forget the Oscar contender (sarcasm) that was Puppet Master vs. Demonic Toys.
There are plenty of hoops to jump through in order for studios to bring icons from different franchises together to duke it out. »

Special Features - In Defense of Alien 3
4 March 2013 12:52 PM, PST | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »
Anghus Houvouras comes to the defense of Alien 3...
I made this statement while writing a follow up to The Five Most Disappointing Films of All Time article. There were a few readers who suggested Alien 3 should have been included on the original list. I debated that assertion and quickly found a growing army of Alien 3 haters who believe the film is an abomination. Some went so far to claim that there are only two Alien films and that everything after Aliens is nothing more than a sad reflection of a franchise that has been oft maligned and left for dead.
Film fans certainly love the hyperbole, don't they?
Sure, Alien: Resurrection is not a great film. The Alien vs. Predator series proved that some concepts can be executed with blunt brutality. Watching those movies is like witnessing the unrelenting murder of an interesting idea. »

Video Game Review: Creative Chaos of EA’s ‘Crysis 3’
4 March 2013 7:46 AM, PST | HollywoodChicago.com | See recent HollywoodChicago.com news »
Chicago – Considering the hoopla surrounding “Aliens: Colonial Marines” it’s pretty fascinating that “Crysis 3”, is the best “Alien Vs. Predator” game of all time. With the small addition of a very versatile bow, “Crysis 3”’s Nano-suited leading man Prophet feels quite a lot like “Predator”’s namesake, down to the lethal arrows, fancy heat vision, futuristic technology, and jungle-esque environments. Engaging in a cycle of cloaking, tagging foes, sneaking up on them and snapping their necks 180 degrees around, sniping the rest from afar with a variety of arrow types, all the while dodging turret fire and jumping over ledges, is a transcendent experience — you truly feel like you’re stalking prey.
Video Game Rating: 4.0/5.0
In addition to the arsenal of pistols, assault rifles, grenades, and high explosives you’ll amass from enemies and weapon stores, your Nanosuit provides a litany of functions, including armor (activated via Lb) a super jump »

New Video Game Releases For The Week Of 2/26: A Ninja's Black Ops Odyssey In Predatorland
26 February 2013 1:10 PM, PST | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
A light week for major console releases, although the 3Ds and Vita will get their own massive RPG and hack and slash remakes respectively. Plus, "Halo 4" and "Black Ops 2" get content updates with new map packs.
Title: "Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan"
Platform(s): 3Ds
This Atlus-published RPG seems like a mix of Norse mythology and high-fantasy tropes, putting players in the role of an explorer traveling to Yggdrasil, the World Tree in the hopes of finding fame and fortune in the world of Tharsis.
It looks like standard Jrpg fare with 3D monsters roaming the forest and making life a challenge for your nameless hero, with the bonus addition of a skyship to carry you and your party around Tharsis in search of more adventure.
Title: "Nija Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus"
Platform(s): Ps Vita

Have Your Say: "A Good Day to Die Hard"
15 February 2013 11:40 PM, PST | Dark Horizons | See recent Dark Horizons news »
There has been a few new films in the opening weeks of 2013, but this weekend's fifth "Die Hard" movie - "A Good Day to Die Hard" - is the first true much-anticipated tentpole film to hit screens.
There has been much talk about two things with this film - the return of an R rating after the PG-13 of the fourth entry, and this being the shortest film in the entire series by almost half-an-hour.
The surprise has been that the reviews have been absolutely scathing. On Rotten Tomatoes it scored just 17% and an average score of 4.2/10 - placing it just behind last year's "Taken" sequel with the same average score (and a slightly higher 21%).
On Metacritic it scored a disastrous 29/100 - the same as frankly terrible films like "Red Riding Hood" and unnecessary sequel "Alien vs. Predator: Requiem".
In terms of numbers, the $92 million-budget film took in $8.2 million »

31 January 2013 6:00 AM, PST | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Aliens: Colonial Marines lands on consoles in just a couple of weeks, but those who’d rather waste face-huggers on their smartphones might want to fire up their Android and iOS devices for Alien Vs. Predator: Evolution. Featuring two distinct campaigns, AvP puts players behind the entrails-spilling skills of both the Xenomorphs and Ah-nuld’s old pals the Predators.
On top of turning each other inside out, the mortal enemies will have ample opportunity to free human foes of their innards. Customizable character upgrades and detail-drenched visuals round out the gore-soaked gameplay. While we’ve yet to get our »

Ubisoft Montreal boss: ‘Prince of Persia’ is on hold for now
30 January 2013 1:20 PM, PST | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
By Joseph Leray
According to an IGN interiew with Ubisoft Montreal CEO Yannis Mallat, the “Prince of Persia” series is being “paused,” for the time being.
“Brand management is a tricky thing,” he said, explaining that some games can be put on hold and then “suddenly [pop] up because a team is willing to do it.”
“We sometimes iterate on franchises and sometimes we give them time to breathe and time to grow, or time to rest,” he elaborated. “‘Prince of Persia’ is as important as any other franchise for Ubisoft.”
The Montreal-based studio brought “Prince of Persia” back to the forefront of the games industry with the “Sands of Time” trilogy during the mid-2000s, after letting Jordan Mechner’s original games “rest” for almost a decade. “Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands” was released in 2010 in conjunction with a Jake Gyllenhaal-starring film of the same name, though »

Vr Missions Return In 'Metal Gear Rising Revengeance'
30 January 2013 12:46 PM, PST | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
How many of you played and replayed the virtual missions in "Metal Gear Solid" back in the day? Those featureless, green rooms patrolled by virtual guards were a sure way to drop down the rabbit hole of trying to beat your best time using non-lethal methods in the Kojima Productions classic.
It looks like Raiden will be put through the (virtual) paces as the challenge mode returns according to a piece from Siliconera.
According to the post, sourced from an article in the Japanese-language print publication "Dengeki PlayStation," the Platinum Games-developed "Revengeance" will include Vr missions and additional stories for the game's main characters as Dlc. Complicating the issue a bit is that "Revengeance" is PS3-only in Japan, so if the Dlc does make it stateside, will it just be for that platform?
Although pricing and release date information aren't available at this time, we've reached out to a Konami rep for more details. »
