Michael Giacchino Has Probably Made You Cry

17 May 2013 9:01 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

The opening scene in "Up"; Tom Cruise's heart-stopping climb up the Burj Khalifa in "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol"; "Not Penny's boat." Some of the most memorable pop culture moments from the last decade have one thing in common: musical accompaniment written by Michael Giacchino.

"The stuff I work on tends to be big things like Pixar movies or franchises," Giacchino, 45, told HuffPost Entertainment. "It's kind of fun to be a part of this world, working on movies that I would have loved when I was a kid."

One of those movies is this week's "Star Trek Into Darkness." It's the second time Giacchino has boldly gone into space with the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise, and the fourth film collaboration between himself and director J.J. Abrams.

"When we first met we became very fast friends because we had a very similar background with regard to our love of filmmaking, »

Michael Giacchino talks Scoring the Sequel in New Music Featurette for Star Trek Into Darkness

17 May 2013 1:30 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

Having arrived in UK theatres last weekend, J.J. Abrams’ anticipated blockbuster sequel, Star Trek Into Darkness, has now officially been released into the Us multiplex, and is reportedly on track for a nine-figure four-day opening across the Atlantic.

The early reviews and the reception from our audiences have been very positive – you can read our review here – and we’re looking forward to seeing how it fares at the box office in the States this weekend.

Adding to all the brilliant things we’ve seen from the film already, Paramount have released a new music featurette in which composer Michael Giacchino talks a little about scoring Abrams’ blockbuster.

When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.

With a personal score to settle, »

The Office Series Finale Recap: 'Best. Prank. Ever.' – Do You Agree? [Updated]

16 May 2013 7:14 PM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

Warning: This recap contains major spoilers from Thursday’s series finale of The Office. Read on at your own risk!

Though it was long in coming, The Office‘s emotional final episode went by too quickly and was, at times, hard to handle (that’s what she said).

The 75-minute episode capped nine seasons with laugh-out-loud moments and tender tributes — a job almost as tough as medalling in Flonkerton or fulfilling the duties of Assistant (to the) Regional Manager.

Brad Bird Talks 'The Incredibles' Sequel and Why He Turned Down 'Star Wars'

16 May 2013 11:27 AM, PDT | Fandango | See recent Fandango news »

Ask Pixar fans which movie they'd like to see a sequel to and most of them will tell you The Incredibles. With Finding Nemo and Monsters, Inc. releasing sequels over the next few years, The Incredibles remains one of the few movies in Pixar's library that hasn't gotten a second installment. Wall-e, Up, Ratatouille, Brave and A Bug's Life remain the other Pixar features that haven't had a prequel/sequel… yet. The Incredibles director Brad Bird recently spoke with THR about the prospects of a sequel. "I have been thinking about it. People thing that I have not been, but I have. Because I love those character and love that world. I am stroking my chin and scratching my head. I have many, many elements that I think would work really well in another...

Continuing its long standing tradition of unveiling the latest Disney•Pixar titles weeks before their UK releases, this year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival will play host to Monsters University.

Directed by Dan Scanlon (Cars), Monsters University examines the relationship between Mike (Billy Crystal) and Sulley (John Goodman) during their days at university, when they weren’t necessarily the best of friends.

Joining Crystal and Goodman on the voice cast are Helen Mirren (Red), Steve Buscemi (Fargo), Aubrey Plaza (Safety Not Guaranteed), Nathan Fillion (Slither) and John Krasinski (It’s Complicated).

The 67th Edinburgh International Film Festival runs from June 19 – 30, and will be bookended by Breathe In and Not Another Happy Ending. »

Monday Night Raw 5/13/13 – A bad day to have a bad ankle

15 May 2013 3:39 AM, PDT | SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news »

The close of this week’s Raw was an apt send-off into the oxymoronic PG-13 Extreme Rules, giving us something we don’t see every week, if ever: Triple H and Brock Lesnar engaging in fisticuffs. It almost didn’t happen; Lesnar was set to strut out of the arena until Hunter, inside of a steel cage, referred to him as “Brock Lesnar… the Bitch”. Up until that point, I was still admiring the fact that Lesnar shows up to collect a paycheque each week for simply standing there while Heyman speaks on his behalf. He’s truly living the American Dream.

Heyman divulged to Triple H that he and his client “enjoy the perverse pleasures in life”. I know, Heyman. I saw the pictures you posted to your Twitter account before this current WWE run, and they sure as hell weren’t PG-13. Heyman’s final taunt was to »

'Star Trek' composer Michael Giacchino to score 'Apes' sequel

15 May 2013 3:20 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »

Michael Giacchino will compose the score for Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

The Star Trek Into Darkness composer confirmed his involvement in Matt Reeves's sequel via Twitter.

In addition to his collaborations with Jj Abrams, Giacchino has composed the score for several Pixar films including Up and Ratatouille.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes director Rupert Wyatt was originally set to return for the sequel but stepped down, reportedly over concerns about the film's tight production schedule, and was replaced by Reeves.

Andy Serkis will return as Caesar, while Jason Clarke, Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Kodi Smit-McPhee and Judy Greer are among the sequel's new cast.

James Franco is unlikely to reprise his role in the sequel.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes will be released on May 23, 2014.

Michael Giacchino Will Compose the Score for Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes

14 May 2013 4:13 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

While it looks like composer Michael Giacchino won’t be able to play around in the world of Star Wars, he’s nevertheless set to tackle another exciting and beloved film franchise.  J.J. Abrams’ longtime collaborator shared an image on Twitter of a monkey dressed up as a composer, saying it was the outfit he would wear while recording the score for the sequel Dawn of the Planet of the ApesMatt Reeves—another longtime friend and collaborator of Abrams'—is helming the Apes pic, and Giacchino previously worked with Reeves on the director’s past two films, Let Me In and Cloverfield. Giacchino is an incredibly gifted composer, and I can’t wait to hear what he puts together for the new Apes pic.  His past work is incredibly varied—from Star Trek to Up to Lost—so one assumes it’ll be something wholly different yet unsurprisingly fantastic. »

The Dundies, how can I explain it?

If you ask The Office accountant extraordinaire Oscar Martinez, the Michael Scott-masterminded accolades are “like a kid’s birthday party: You go and there’s really nothing for you to do there, but the kid’s having a really good time. So… you’re kind of there.” For Pam Beesley, meanwhile, they’re “like a car wreck that you want to look away [from], but you have to stare at it because your boss is making you.”

But it was Michael’s eloquent Season 2 description of the Dundies as being “about the best in »

Happy Mother’s Day From Monsters University!

12 May 2013 9:29 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »

Ever since college-bound Mike Wazowski (voice of Billy Crystal) was a little monster, he has dreamed of becoming a Scarer—and he knows better than anyone that the best Scarers come from Monsters University (Mu). But during his first semester at Mu, Mike’s plans are derailed when he crosses paths with hotshot James P. Sullivan, “Sulley” (voice of John Goodman), a natural-born Scarer.  The pair’s out-of-control competitive spirit gets them both kicked out of the University’s elite Scare Program. To make matters worse, they realize they will have to work together, along with an odd bunch of misfit monsters, if they ever hope to make things right.

Screaming with laughter and oozing with heart, Disney•Pixar’s Monsters University is directed by Dan Scanlon (Cars, Mater and the Ghostlight, Tracy), produced by Kori Rae (Up, The Incredibles, Monsters, Inc.) and features music from Rock and Roll Hall »

7 reasons why Star Wars Episode VII could be the highest-grossing film of all time

4 May 2013 1:05 PM, PDT | Shadowlocked | See recent Shadowlocked news »

As it's Star Wars day today (May the Fourth be with you!), what better time to look ahead to the next Star Wars film on the horizon, Star Wars Episode VII, and its box office prospects?

A couple of things to note before we start: This article is meant to be less of an in-depth analysis box office figures (and in fact uses figures not adjusted for inflation—so an in-depth look at adjusted figures would be something for another article), but a more wide-ranging look at the factors which could contribute to a phenomenal, perhaps earth-shattering (or planet-exploding), degree of box office success. So if this analysis seems clumsy and random, like it's flailing around wildly like Jar-Jar Binks, try and think of it more like a blaster: not as elegant as a lightsaber, but it'll do when the need arises.

Many of these factors may not necessarily be original insights, »

J.J. Abrams wants John Williams to score 'Star Wars: Episode VII' instead of Michael Giacchino

1 May 2013 12:45 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

J.J. Abrams has a long working relationship with composer Michael Giacchino, but that will end temporarily when Abrams starts work on "Star Wars: Episode VII." The director has revealed that he expects original "Star Wars" composer John Williams will write the score for the upcoming movie.

"Michael Giacchino is an incredible composer, who I was lucky enough to begin working with on 'Alias,'" Abrams says at a press conference for "Star Trek Into Darkness" in Berlin. "He's truly one of the most influential members of our crew, and I think this ['Star Trek Into Darkness'] score, he really outdid himself. Again, for 'Star Wars,' it's very early days, but I believe that, going forward, John Williams will be doing that film, because he was there long before I was."

Abrams has worked with Giacchino on many of his projects, including "Alias," "Lost," "Star Trek," "Super 8," "Alcatraz," "Fringe" and "Star Trek Into Darkness. »

Mad Men Recap: Shock and Awkward

28 April 2013 9:37 PM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »

Martin Luther King Jr.’s tragic assassination takes place during this week’s Mad Men, setting up an episode that finds the Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce folk fumbling their way through late 1960s race relations. Spoiler alert: Though usually well intentioned, those interactions are at times unbearably uncomfortable to watch.

The fear and sadness that permeate the hour also knock something loose in Don, who realizes that he actually kind of likes his kids (better late than never?), and serve as a counterpoint for a happy realization of Peggy’s. Let’s review what happens in “The Flood.”
