Spielberg’s ‘Lincoln’ First Look and Poster

Abraham Lincoln Daniel Day Lewis

Last year, Steven Spielberg ended on a medium note. War Horse did exceptionally well with audiences while The Adventures of Tintin could have seen better days domestically. Now, Mr. Spielberg is heading back further in time to bring us the tale of Abraham Lincoln. There will be no vampires in this version, and hopefully no crystal skulls, but we can assume there will be an astounding performance by Daniel Day-Lewis. (P.S. the header picture is a fake.) Read on to check out the first poster and image from Lincoln. Continue reading

Retro Review: The Dark Knight

film review

When it comes to an epic film series, you may have a strong case in stating that the second film is the strongest. The Empire Strikes Back, T2: Judgement Day, X2: X-Men United, Spider-Man 2, Aliens, and The GodfatherPart 2 just to name a few. And The Dark Knight is no different. Taking a look back at the film that single-handedly put Christopher Nolan in the spotlight and paved the way for The Dark Knight Rises. After four years of its release, I review The Dark Knight.

‘Silent Hill: Revelation 3D’ Trailer, Poster, and Screenshots

Silent Hill Revelation 3D Trailer

Now I’ve never played any of the games relating to the Silent Hill franchise, but I have seen the first movie adaptation that released in 2006. What I like about this series is that it goes beyond horror; there is something more to it  than just a simple haunting or a serial killer chasing down teens. Above all, it has some pretty horrifying imagery. Check out the first full-length trailer for Silent Hill: Revelation 3D after the jump. Continue reading

First ‘Paranormal Activity 4’ Trailer Debuts

Paranormal Activity 4 Trailer

The haunting continues with the fourth installment of the Paranormal Activity franchise. This low budget spook fest has garnered its fair shares of pros and cons, but it always continues to stay fresh compared to other horror series that have gone on to a fourth film. Paranormal Activity 4 will not be going backwards this time, but rather forwards – after the events of the first film. Watch the trailer after the jump! Continue reading

Easter Eggs from ‘The Dark Knight Rises’

The Dark Knight Rises Easter Eggs

Superhero adaptations have so much rich content to pull from that it is quite impossible to showcase every little detail from their lore in film. Thus is why it is extra special for fans that spot the little Easter Eggs throughout the films – much like how Pixar does theirs. This holds true especially for Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight TrilogyBob Kane created Batman in 1939. How much history from The Batman was Nolan able to squeeze into The Dark Knight Rises? READERS BEWARE: spoilers lie ahead!  Continue reading

Retro Review: Batman Begins

film review

There is a movie that has come out this weekend, it’s kind of small, you may have heard of it before: The Dark Knight Rises. As most film junkies do, I am chronologically revisiting previous films in this trilogy so that the newest film can be watched in sequence. Thus we begin with Batman Begins. It may not have been the fuel to put The Dark Knight Rises on the radar for everyone to see, but it still has its merit for being a decently well put-together superhero origin story. But how does it hold up after seven years? Continue reading

Comic-Con 2012: Sunday Schedule

Comic-Con 2012 Sunday Schedule

And on the last day, Stan Lee said, “Let thy rest.” After three full days of rubbing elbows with sweaty Hobbits, listening to unproportioned Batman’s growl, and seeing more slave Leia’s than Jabba’s sail barge, Sunday during Comic-Con is a day of re-cooperation.  There aren’t any really big names appearing on Sunday other than BBC’s Doctor Who, FX’s Sons of Anarchy, and an overview of the 15-year history of Harry Potter. But if you’re interested in going, we’ve got the schedule for Sunday here.  Continue reading
