Even Louis Leterrier Thinks Tim Blake Nelson Should Terrorize Marvel Movies as The Leader

11 hours ago | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

Remember when Tim Blake Nelson‘s noggin started looking all funky in The Incredible Hulk? Well, if you don’t, it happened around the point where the Hulk and the Abomination starting ripping each other apart. While those two worked out their problems, Dr. Samuel Sterns was having a makeover. Before the finale, we saw Sterns crack a smile while making his transformation into The Leader, the brilliant green-skinned Marvel baddie. He’s a villain favorite for some, possibly even the makers of The Amazing Spider-Man, who used one of his more famous schemes for The Lizard’s grand plan. The Leader is a very comic book-y type of villain, one that could have been too much for Marvel’s Phase I, but now that the studio has pushed the boundaries of its scientific status, bringing back actor Tim Blake Nelson to terrorize The Hulk or The Avengers is a solid idea.

Star Trek Into Darkness: 3 Reasons It Didn't Open Bigger Than 2009's Star Trek

12 hours ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Star Trek Into Darkness had a bigger opening weekend than The Amazing Spider-Man, Captain America and Twilight. But there's one film Into Darkness couldn't beat that stands out: its 2009 predecessor, which took in $75 million over its first Friday-Sunday frame versus the new film's $70 million. Hollywood sequels are supposed to be bigger, in scope, in budget and, most of all, at the box office.  Here are three ways to explain what happened to Into Darkness: 1. It Lost Some of Its Payload on Lauch: Or, to put it another way, because the J.J. Abrams-directed adventure opened Thursday (with Wednesday night previews), instead of Friday, ticket sales were spread out over four days instead of »

Andrew Garfield Caught in Downpour With His Pup on The Amazing Spider-Man Set

15 hours ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

It was raining cats 'n' dogs in NYC this past weekend, and even Andrew Garfield's pooch was unhappy about the gloomy occasion. But his best friend did what he could under the soaking circumstances. While shooting scenes for The Amazing Spider-Man, the leading man changed out of his Spidey suit and took his dog for a quick stroll around the block. Andrew was well equipped for the weather in a giant black raincoat, gray sweatpants and chunky brown boots.    His pup, on the other hand, made for an adorable wet dog.  Photos: Check out these celebrity canines »

Andrew Garfield and Two Stunt Men on the Amazing Spider-Man 2 Set

18 hours ago | ComicBookMovie.com | See recent ComicBookMovie news »

With the wet ground making stunt work too dangerous the three red and blue suited men decided to get extra practice in as they ran around a large parked truck. All three of them had loose fitting jogging bottoms on as they tried to keep warm in the damp weather while Paul Giamatti sat nice and dry inside the truck.

Day 73. The Future. twitter.com/MarcW/status/3…— Marc Webb (@MarcW) May 19, 2013 What is it? Well, it appears to be a cell of some sort, although it looks to me like it's probably something Oscorp related rather than anything to do with the Ravencroft Institute. Could this be where Norman Osborn undergoes his transformation into the Green Goblin? Your guess is as good as ours at this point! What do you guys think Marc Webb could be hinting at?

'Seduced and Abandoned' (2013) Movie Review - Cannes Film Festival

19 May 2013 9:00 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

You don't get points for the good movie no one went to see. Pretend for a moment you have an endless amount of money to make any movie you want. What would it be? An action film? Romance? Comedy? Who would direct? Who would star? Pretend I came to you with a film directed by James Toback (Tyson) starring Alec Baldwin and Neve Campbell in something of a politically-inspired erotic Middle Eastern adventure inspired by Bernardo Bertolucci's Last Tango in Paris in which there's the promise of exploratory sex. How much would you be willing to pay to help fund that film? Better yet, what would it take to get you to fund that film? While navigating the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, Toback and Baldwin took such an idea to a variety of investors, both foreign and domestic to get the proposed film off the ground, while also taking a »

The Punisher: 7 Essential Stories You Must Read

18 May 2013 4:01 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

The Punisher is one of those strange characters – his logo is instantly recognisable and he has a lot of name value and yet despite this he doesn’t have the popularity of a Batman or a Spider-Man. This could be partly down to three poorly received films – 1989′s The Punisher starring Dolph Lundgren, 2004′s Garth Ennis influenced version starring Thomas Jane and the ultraviolent (albeit straight to DVD) Punisher: War Zone with Ray Stevenson perfectly cast as Frank Castle – or maybe because his ultraviolent and uncompromising nature makes it near on impossible for him to be mass marketed. But with his iconic black and white skull-shirt and gruff Dirty Harry demeanor, the story of Frank Castle – a former Marine who engages in a one-man war on crime after his family is viciously gunned down in front of him – is one that strikes a chord with people due to its simplicity and grounded emotions, »

Digital Drives Indian Box Office to Higher Stakes

15 May 2013 3:06 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »

The current story of Indian cinema is that of unprecedented growth and rapid change. In 2011, consulting firm Kpmg predicted a 7% growth rate in India’s domestic theatrical sector for 2012. Instead, it grew 23.8%. Total revenues, including domestic and overseas theatrical, homevideo, cable and satellite and other ancillary revenue streams raked in 112.4 billion rupees ($2.1 billion). It is now projected to grow 21% annually to hit $3.6 billion by 2017.

Apart from the insatiable appetite of Indian audiences for home-grown films, the engine of growth and change has been the rapid digitization of the country’s 12,000 screens with nearly 80% now converted.

Due to the relative cheapness of non-dci compliant digital prints and satellite delivery, films can be shown on digital screens in tiny cinemas in small-town India. Digital prints also allow films to open wider than ever before. Big-budget pics with A-list stars now routinely open on 3,500 screens and usually make 60%-70% of their revenues in the opening week. »

Dane DeHaan in Metallica concert movie - picture

15 May 2013 2:27 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

The first image from Metallica Through the Never has been released.

Dane DeHaan stars in the upcoming IMAX feature as a crew member for Metallica, who is sent out on a mission through a sold-out arena whilst the band play onstage.

Directed by Nimród Antal (Predators), the film will combine real concert footage with a fictionalised narrative, and sees DeHaan's character Trip have his life "unexpectedly turned completely upside down".

DeHaan has been cast as Harry Osborn in Marc Webb's sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man, and the first official image of him in character was released last month.

He will next be seen in Beat era drama Kill Your Darlings, alongside Daniel Radcliffe as Alan Ginsberg.

Metallica Through the Never will be released on August 9 in the Us, with a UK release date yet to be set.

Iron Man 3: 3 Reasons The Mandarin We Got Was The One We Deserved

14 May 2013 1:57 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »

I remember sitting in my bedroom in Inglewood, CA in my teens reading yet another awesome issue of The Amazing Spider-Man. The early ’90s: some would say that this was the apex of the golden years for Marvel’s marquee character. Howard Mackie and Tom DeFalco (who must have been under mind control or something) were waiting in the wings to ruin everything, but I digress. This article is about comic book movies.

Back in those days there was already talk about Marvel taking the movie business seriously, up until that point they relied on studio’s like Troma Films (Toxic Avenger) to handle their films, which as you might imagine produced less than stellar results (Dolph Lundgren as Punisher, Reb Brown as Captain America and the immediately and mercifully killed original Fantastic Four film starring who cares honestly).

Their cross town rivals had the luxury of being owned by Warner Bros. »
