Perfect Father’s Day Gift: Ultimate Gangster Collection — Contemporary

18 hours ago | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

Ultimate Gangster Collection — Contemporary

Mean Streets

The Untouchables

Goodfellas

Heat

The Departed

Due Out: May 21, 2013

The “Ultimate Gangster Collection: Classics“ and “Ultimate Gangster Collection: Contemporary” are available on Blu-ray 5/21 

Who’S It For?

My wife hasn’t seen Mean StreetsThe UntouchablesGoodfellas or Heat. So while I would normally say this is the perfect gift for guys on Father’s Day, it’s really perfect for my wife. These are movies that must be seen by every adult. Not only to they showcase how the ugly side of society has evolved, but it’s also the evolution of gangster crime. Every one of these films is brilliant, and yes, I’m including The Departed. Jack Nicholson’s performance has someone gotten a bad rap. I’m convinced if it wasn’t for Martin Scorsese  zooming in on the rat at the very end, everyone would still worship this film. »

James Badge Dale, 'Iron Man 3' Star, Is Also in 'World War Z' and 'The Lone Ranger'

20 May 2013 7:40 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

James Badge Dale has always been one of those promising character actors who you knew to keep an eye on; he starred as a squirrely everyman caught in a vast conspiracy in AMC's short-lived series "Rubicon," and anchored the very best scene in Robert Zemeckis's "Flight" (he was the cancer patient in the staircase). But this summer he not only flirts with superstardom, he takes superstardom out to a five-course meal and brings it back to his place. In successive months, James Badge Dale stars in three of the summer's biggest, most talked-about blockbusters. You can currently see him as a gum-chewing bad guy in the excellent "Iron Man 3"; next month he battles hordes of flesh-eating zombies in the highly anticipated "World War Z," and in July he stars alongside Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer in Disney's mega-budget "The Lone Ranger."

'Into Darkness' Boldly Goes Where 2009's 'Trek' Went Before

19 May 2013 5:37 PM, PDT | Box Office Mojo | See recent BoxOfficeMojo.com news »

Star Trek Into Darkness easily opened on top this weekend, though it wasn't the kind of box office sensation that many*including distributor Paramount*were expecting it to be. The J.J. Abrams-directed sequel took in an estimated $70.6 million for the three-day frame; add in its grosses from Wednesday night and all-day Thursday, and the movie has to-date earned $84.1 million. In comparison, 2009's Star Trek grossed $75.2 million for the weekend, and $86.7 million through its first four-and-a-half days.While it's usually unfair to knock a movie for opening in line with its predecessor, it certainly feels like the "disappointment" label is applicable in this case. All signs suggest the 2009 Trek is very well-liked (it has a strong 8.0 rating on IMDb) and Paramount's marketing did a decent job walking the sequel tightrope (a balanced approach of promising more-of-the-same and offering something new). Additionally, there was four years of ticket price inflation and »

Joel Edgerton Joins Johnny Depp in Black Mass

18 May 2013 5:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Joel Edgerton (The Great Gatsby, Zero Dark Thirty) is set to co-star alongside Johnny Depp in the Barry Levinson-directed crime thriller Black Mass.

The story revolves around mob boss Whitey Bulger, a ruthless Boston kingpin who inspired movie characters such as the one Jack Nicholson played in The Departed and the one Pete Postlethwaite played in The Town. The movie is based on the 2001 Dick Lehr/Gerald O’Neill New York Times bestseller Black Mass: The True Story of an Unholy Alliance Between the FBI and the Irish Mob.

Bulger was also an FBI informant so he could help discreetly take down a rival gang. In the end, the tables were turned on him, and he was double crossed and prosecuted by the Feds, along with his partner in crime and the original FBI agent working with him. Edgerton will play John Connolly, the "FBI agent and childhood »

'Iron Man 3': James Badge Dale Explains Why He Became Savin

17 May 2013 7:29 AM, PDT | MTV Splash Page | See recent MTV Splash Page news »

When James Badge Dale finally took the role of the "muscle" in "Iron Man 3," it was a pretty big deal for the actor. He admits now that he has had plenty of opportunities to star in superhero movies, but it was only the role of Eric Savin that snagged his attention.

"I've actually passed on even auditioning for almost every superhero movie I've been sent because I didn't think I could play someone in a suit," he told Movies.com. "I don't want to be in a cape or wear a codpiece. So this was the absolute best of both worlds. I get to be in a superhero movie where my suit is actually just a regular suit."

Well, it's true that Dale didn't need to wear a suit in "Iron Man 3," but apparently there was another big draw that made this film his first superhero movie. Dale »

Leonardo DiCaprio: five best moments

17 May 2013 4:48 AM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

Here's our pick of his finest performances – what would you add to the list?

Whether you think of him as the modern day Robert De Niro or an overpraised Norman Lamont-lookalike (as people used to say), you can't deny that Leonardo DiCaprio has been in some excellent films in the course of his 20 year career – and was the obvious choice to take the title role in Baz Lurhmann's adaptation of The Great Gatsby.

We asked readers to nominate his greatest performances – and here's an attempt to narrow it down to five of the very best, with suggestions from @TomorrowsEnd, @esmehaycox, @bobbyblowdart, @BafflerMeal and @amyjkhan.

Sadly there's no room here for his film debut in Critters 3 – let us know what else you think should have made the list in the comment thread below. Warning: spoilers and adult content feature heavily in these clips.

Dialogue: James Badge Dale on Why He Avoided Superhero Movies Until 'Iron Man 3,' Plus How He Fits in 'World War Z'

16 May 2013 5:35 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »

James Badge Dale has been having one helluva year and it's not stopping anytime soon. He can currently be seen as Guy Pearce's hot-tempered henchman in Iron Man 3. Next he'll be staring down the apocalypse alongside Brad Pitt in World War Z. And then after that he'll be seen as the title character's older brother in The Lone Ranger. The man's got one helluva agent, it seems. It also doesn't hurt that he's immensely talented and, for this writer's money, one of the coolest actors of his generation. The man steals scenes no matter how small the role or how big the cast around him (just look at The Departed, Flight and The Grey for evidence of that), and he can anchor complex TV shows (he was tremendous on HBO's The Pacific and...

Garrett Hedlund Replaces Jason Clarke In William Monahan's 'Mojave'; Terry Gilliam Has Small Role In The New Wachowski Movie

16 May 2013 2:39 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Even without being massively fond of many of the films produced from his screenplays (not least his pretty bad directorial debut "London Boulevard"), we're fond of William Monahan and his salty dialogue, best embodied in his Oscar-winning script for "The Departed," and we're always hopeful that he'll come up with the goods. So despite our feelings about "London Boulevard," we're hopeful for his follow-up "Mojave," not least because of the cast he's assembling. When first announced, the La-set crime picture had Oscar Isaac and Jason Clarke on board, but given how busy the latter's becoming, with roles in "Dawn Of The Planet of the Apes" and "Candy Store" lined up, it's not surprising to learn that he's dropped out of the project. The good news it that they've found a fine replacement, with "Tron: Legacy" and "On The Road" star Garrett Hedlund stepping in. Hedlund will play a tortured artist »

Joel Edgerton Heads To ‘Black Mass’ & Joins Michelle Williams On ‘The Double Hour’

16 May 2013 1:55 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »

One of my favourite under-appreciated actors has landed roles in two very exciting projects.

Joel Edgerton will star alongside Johnny Depp in Barry Levinson’s biopic of notorious Boston crime figure Whitey Bulger, the brother of a state senator who went down altogether different route than his sibling. Depp will portray the career criminal, who ultimately turned ‘rat’ for the FBI. Edgerton takes the role of the FBI agent John Connolly, a childhood friend of Bulger. Both the characters of ‘Fergie’, (played by the late Pete Postlethwaite) in Ben Affleck’s The Town and Jack Nicholson’s Frank Costello in Scorecese’s The Departed are based on the mobster.

The Aussie actor will also join the gorgeous Michelle Williams on a remake of Giuseppe Capotondi’s 2009 acclaimed Italian thriller, The Double Hour. The original followed a chambermaid and an ex-cop whom meet at a speed dating event and develop a romantic relationship. »

Watch: Martin Sheen Evokes Iraq War In Commencement Advice

15 May 2013 7:30 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Acclaimed actor Martin Sheen dished out some jokes when he gave the commencement address at La Roche College in Pennsylvania on May 4, but he didn't shy away from politics either.

Sheen is well-known for playing President Josiah Bartlet on television show "The West Wing," but during his acting career he was in feature films "The Departed," "Wall Street" and "Apocalypse Now," and voiced a character on the television show "Captain Planet," to name a few.

Sheen, 72, has a history of activism too, supporting the 1960s farm worker movement, supporting environmental causes and openly opposing the Iraq war, which he discussed in the speech.

"In the days and weeks leading up to the invasion, I spoke out repeatedly against that war at a series of nonviolent demonstrations, peace rallies and press conferences, all of which only served to isolate me to a small minority of fellow Americans," Sheen said. "Then on the feast of St. »

Warner Bros Wins the Battle for 'Dungeons & Dragons' Movie Rights

7 May 2013 8:17 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »

Well, this is a no brainer. But maybe 40 years too late? We'll find out soon enough if a name alone can make a hit. News has broke via Deadline that Warner Bros and producer Roy Lee (The Departed, Quarantine, Abduction, The Lego Movie) have obtained the rights to make a Dungeons & Dragons movie, based on the seminal fantasy role-playing game first invented by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson in 1974. However, the interesting thing is that the project is actually developing by way of another "free-standing" script merged into this project to become the Dungeons & Dragons movie. But it has all the right people involved so far. According to the news, the original screenplay was called Chainmail, written by a "Frank Darabont protege" David Leslie Johnson. That project was developed originally based on an "obscure game that was also hatched by D&D designer Gary Gygax before he and Dave Arneson launched D&D, »

Andrew Garfield to Star in Martin Scorsese’s ‘Silence’ (Exclusive)

7 May 2013 9:52 AM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »

Martin Scorsese can finally give voice to “Silence.”

After two decades of false starts and near misses, the director can now look forward to shooting his long-gestating adaptation of Japanese novelist Shusaku Endo’s novel next summer.

Scorsese not only has secured the financing he needed and a production greenlight for June 2014, he’s landed a coveted leading man: The Amazing Spider-Man’s Andrew Garfield.

The project, which also will feature Ken Watanabe, is sure to catch the attention of international distributors at the upcoming Cannes market, which marks a new experience for the director, who has headed the Cannes jury and presented four movies in competition.

Sinking into a sofa in his midtown Manhattan office on a recent morning, Scorsese reflected on the planned pic, which he holds particularly dear to his heart. The subject matter — the very roots of religious faith — has long fascinated him, from his childhood »
