New Villain announced in the upcoming The Amazing Spider-Man 2

Strait from the 'Daily Bugle' fictitious Marvel universe website is an article that leads us to believe that a new villain has come to play a part in the upcoming Spider-Man sequel.
It looks as if the site may have given a clue as a potential additional villain appearing in the upcoming The amazing Spider-Man 2. You can read the article below.
The current villain lineup includes; Electro (Jamie Foxx), Rhino (Paul Giamatti) and now possibly Shocker






The Daily Bugle Newspaper
Detective Stan Carter of the NYPD Major Crimes Unit was on scene to comment, stating, ”There’s still a lot we don’t know, but it looks like some kind of sustained vibration literally shook the door off its hinges and ripped the walls apart in the process.” Security cameras inside the bank were damaged upon the immediate forced entry of the robber, denying police a clear view of the perpetrator or the means of rupturing the vault.
When asked if the NYPD had concerns that the nature of the crime might indicate heightened super-human activity, Carter said, “There’s no evidence to point to that

Jurassic Park, Jurassic World story update

Directly from director Colin Trevorrow

Besides the fact that Universal Pictures will release Jurassic World in 3D on June 12, 2015, we don't know much about what to expect. Rumors have surfaced that the film may be about the park some time later as it is officially open to the public, but the studio has not confirmed that. Fans have also wondered if the movie will serve as a reboot of the franchise. Director Colin Trevorrow has now addressed those worries on Twitter.

"Reboot is a strong word," he said. "This is a new sci-fi terror adventure set 22 years after the horrific events of Jurassic Park."

If it is set 22 years after the first film, it could definitely mean the theme park rumors are accurate.

Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Ty Simpkins, Jake Johnson, Nick Robinson and Irrfan Khan will star in the film. Steven Spielberg returns to produce. Trevorrow directs the epic action-adventure from a draft of the screenplay he wrote with Derek Connolly. Frank Marshall and Pat Crowley join the team as fellow producers.

Sons of Anarchy guide to X-Mas gifts; Gun-Mug, AK47-Lamp or a SAMCRO Harley

 
From pop2it
 
For that special person who has everything....and who's a huge fan of Sons Of Anarchy.
 
 
The holidays are here and finding that perfect gift can be difficult. Sometimes it's especially hard when your loved ones are hardcore fans of a show. If you've got a "Sons of Anarchy" loyalist in your life and don't know what to get for them, you're in luck. On the other hand, maybe you're a big "Sons" fan and want to find yourself a little something nice for your holiday wishlist.

 

Under 50:

soa-mug.jpg
"Sons of Anarchy" 2014 Wall Calendar ($5.99) - It's easy, it's cheap, and it's very useful. WHo doesn't need a calendar to get them through the year?

Jax's Season 2 Sunglasses ($10) - Ride your bike in style, just like Jax Teller. These will keep the sun out of your eyes and make you look like an outlaw motorcycle gang member. Well, it own't do that second thing, but you'll look good. (Also available with clear lenses.)

Reaper Flask ($17.95) - The perfect gift for a "Sons" fan who needs a way to partake in their drink of choice on the down low.

"Sons of Anarchy" Gun Mug ($23.95) - It's the coolest way the person who owns it will ever drink coffee. The perfect give for the coffee drinker in your life.

Property of Jax Women's T-Shirt ($23.99) - Sure he's kind of a terrible person. At the end of the day, if someone loves Jax they just can't help it. This will help them show it, but be warned that living him never ends well.

soa-lamp.jpg
SAMCRO Sleeveless T-Shirt ($29.95) - It's been seen on the show many times. What fan wouldn't want a sleeveless SAMCRO T-shirt? It's good for just about any occasion and those who see it will know exactly what it means.

Gemma's Season 6 Coral Ring ($39.99) - Accessorize like the Queen of the biker world. Half the fun of "Sons of Anarchy" is so much of what the characters has actually been turned into merchandise fans can own.

Reaper Dartboard Set ($49.95) - The perfect addition to any lounge space, man cave, or anywhere else a "Sons" fan is going to be spending a big chunk of their downtime. Play some darts and do it with style.

Tig's Turquoise Cross Cuff Bracelet ($49.95) - You don't have to accessorize like Gemma, sometimes you just want to be Tig. His turquoise cross bracelet is a nice little tribute to the show, but it's also very stylish.

Under $100:

Reaper Table Lamp ($64.95) - This is definitely the creepiest lamp anyone could own, but it just looks so cool. If the "Sons" fan in your life needs a lamp and a decorative machine gun, this is the best way to go.

soa-charter-ring.jpg
Reaper Wooden Sign ($89.95) - Here's something else that would look good in a game room, put the insignia of the reaper on the wall and let those who enter know where you allegiance is. (Also available with a little Irish flavor.)

Clay's Season 5 Born Wild Ring ($95.00) - If you fancy yourself anything like the one-time president of SAMCRO, or if you're simply a free spirit, a ring made to look like a screaming eagle that says "Born Wild" is a good way to tell the world. If it's good enough for Clay, it's good enough for the fans.

Over $100:

SAMCRO Charter Ring ($115) - It's a simple but strong show of support for "Sons of Anarchy." The person who wears this charter ring will show their pride in the Redwood Original, wherever they go.

"Sons of Anarchy" Denim Jacket ($139.95) - It's not quite a kutte, but this denim jacket with the "Sons of Anarchy" top rocker and reaper on the back will keep you covered on the road.

so-harley.jpg
Leather Rebel Vest ($299) - Or you can go all the way and get yourself a kutte. This is the same style the club wears in Season 6, but without all the patches. After all, you're not really in a motorcycle gang and you don't want the wrong people thinking you are. (Also comes in a long version.)

Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide Custom ($13,549) - If money is no object for your favorite "Sons" fan, and if they know how to ride, why not get them the same model Jax rides on the show? The Harley-Davidson Dyna line is filled with good-looking bikes, and the Super Glide is one of the very best



If I am on your list, I'll have 2 of those Harleys please

Quentin Tarantino upcoming untitled...not so secret project


If you saw Quentin Tarantino on Jay Leno last night you may have caught a whiff of things to come from the charismatic director.

He announced to Jay...and millions of viewers that his next film project will be a western.
Anyone who follows Tarantino  knows that he is a huge spaghetti western fan and has always stated that Sergio Leone flicks inspired him to get into films.
He even has a spaghetti western online directory http://www.spaghetti-western.net/index.php/Main_Page

During the interview Tarantino told Jay :
 "I can't talk that much about it, but I will say one thing," , "I haven't told anyone about this publicly, but I will say the genre. It's a western. It's not a Django sequel, but it's another Western. I had so much fun doing Django and I love westerns so much, that after I taught myself how to make one, it's like 'OK, now let me make another one now that I know what I'm doing.'"

George St-Pierre cast as villain in Captain America: The Winter Soldier


Captain America: The Winter Soldier, will introduce new Marvel Universe villains including George St-Pierre as Batroc the Leaper, The Winter Soldier, and Crossbones, played by Frank Grillo.

Grillo spoke with CraveOnline and did say that unlike many Marvel villains, this won't be the last we see of many of the characters introduced in the film.

"It's an origin film. You meet people who are going to be around for a while, so they introduce the characters. It's almost like it's a series. It's fun. I can't say very much about it because Marvel's very strict about what you're allowed to say. The movie, we've seen bits of it, and it is spectacular."

Asked if Marvel has plans for Grillo to return as Crossbones, he replied:

"They do actually. We'll see what happens. We'll see if the fans respond to Brock and how it goes."

Starring Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson, Robert Redford, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Cobie Smulders, Frank Grillo, Georges St-Pierre,

The Amazing Spider-Man's Chris Cooper talks Sinister Six villains

From an MTV  interview with Chris Cooper

When asked about the Sinister Six and its potential as the future direction of the series, Cooper said  "They (the studio) sent me some material," he said. "But they said also that this Spider-Man is its own Spider-Man. We're just kind of starting from the beginning."
At this point, the formation of the Sinister Six in future "Amazing Spider-Man" movies seems all but confirmed. When MTV News spoke with Paul Giamatti at the Toronto International Film Festival, he intimated that's where things appeared to be headed.
"And I believe there's a lot of stage-setting for the next film. There are several villains in this movie, and some of them are more foreground and important. Jamie Foxx is and stuff. A couple of us are more hanging around the background because I think there will be a bigger deal," he said. "I don't actually know, but that seems to be what they're doing. I'm not an idiot either, but I can't claim hard and fast knowledge of this. I won't. I can't because I don't actually know, but you and I can speculate."

Will Smith & Denzel Washington to star in Uptown Saturday Night

Review of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Review of The Hunger Games: Catching Fire


Dystopian romance and totalitarian Olympics


It is extremely hard for me to review a film that I believe is simply a blatant rip off of other popular films and/or books.
What upsets me the most is that paid critics and fans of the book/or film, seem to key in on the fact that it's a controversial and an original story when in fact it clearly isn't.
If you want controversy, let me see some blood and some heads flying off of children's neck, if you want originality than you must separate yourself from a cinematic journey that looks like a cross between a Tim Burton and Terry Gilliam film.
If I can remove thoughts of piracy, story thievery and cinematic unoriginality out of my head and focus on subject A) The Hunger Games: Catching Fire  for what it is,  I will say that as a stand alone film it is decent and entertaining.
Again, I must try hard now not to somehow view Catching Fire as a rip off to the original Rollerball or  The Running Man...but that is hard to do since I am a big fan of the originals.

I love me some Woody Harrelson but he felt slightly out of place throughout the film and somehow I doubt he has ever read the books...in a sober state at least.
Stanley Tucci and Philip Seymour Hoffman are fantastic actors, and even with a thin script and underwhelming dialogue, they manage to remain professionally good.
As for title character Katniss Everdeen., played by the young and marginally talented Jennifer Lawrence, I will say that Jennifer Lawrence simply doesn't command the screen as other young(er) actress have done in the past with such high profile roles. She doesn't disappoint, but doesn't steel the show either.

Their is clearly and effort to entertain the masses with big colorful and pleasant visual affects and a few action packed twist and turns throughout the film. I will not say that you will be at the edge of your seat while watching this, but you feel uneasy because we never quite get a good feeling that the good guys will come on top over the twisted and sinister game wardens...and this to me is the films saving grace.
The appeal to tweens is there with teenage love affairs which is pushed on to the audience in a way that feels unnecessary and dull.

Catching Fire is currently a box office hit, it appeals to the masses due to the popularity of its teen-focused books, the hype around Jennifer Lawrence and actually all supporting actors as well as the big budget it carries for it's special effects and it's action packed-love (sigh) themed storyline.

While the film is long, it may not appear so to fans who probably wish it would of lasted 4 hours instead of it's 2 and a half hours.
The script is awful but this is unnoticeable because honestly, Tucci, Harrelson, PSHoffman and Sutherland are just that good. They are working with a lemon of a script but can still produce lemonade.
The visuals are good but very a-la Tim Burton or Terry Gilliam.
Overall, as a stand alone film, it is palatable, but I can see that the romantic aspect of the movie could turn off many adults. As for fans of the books, I'm sure this may be the greatest film ever since ...Twilight.
If you are bored and looking for something decent  to watch Catching Fire can do the trick, but please do not expect a cinematic marvel or a creatively original story.
A deterrent to watching this film may be that you should probably have watched the first film and then expect to sit through a total of 5 hours of movie watching.

As a stand alone film, not considering all the hype, I will give it a 6/10

George A Romero's; Day of The Dead remake is official

Hmmmmm BRAINS!!!!!

Marvel's upcoming Ant-Man film, Ant-Man The infamously Forgotten


I read my share of Marvel comics when I grew up, and I can't ever recall Ant-Man ever being part of, or associated with any of my favorite series, not X-Men, not Spiderman, not Ghost Rider, not Daredevil, was he even featured in the Infinity Gauntlet?...but apparently he made some friends over at the Avengers and through the years Ant-Man has had different characters assume the title hero (Really? That many people wanted to be Ant-Man?)

Anything that has come from Marvel in the last few years have been major box office success, despite many being panned by critics.
Ant-Man will probably be another success despite the lack of notoriety of said superhero.
Oh and just to remind you all that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in talks to play the man ant..man...ant-man.

Edgar Wright (The Worlds End) is directing and he has some very nice things to say about the people hiring him and the movie he is set to direct.
Here is Wright in an interview with IGN:
“I’ve known Kevin Feige [Marvel Entertainment's Co-President] for years and in that time I’ve always has this treatment, which is now becoming a movie. So the idea has never really wavered. And I think what me and Joe [Cornish] wrote, and what the people who have read it say, is that it really feels like a great Marvel yarn. And that was sort of the intention, but you will definitely also still see my stamp on it. The nice thing about doing one of these things is that I loved the comics growing up. So if I was making a Marvel movie, I would want it to feel like a Marvel comic.
You’ll see when you see the movie that we’ve definitely written interesting takes on different characters… Of course you need great actors, and I think that’s actually what they’ve done so far in their casting is actually kind of been to cast surprising actors. They haven’t gone for the most obvious people. I think from the first movie onwards. People forget that back in 2007 that Robert Downey Jr. was a gamble for them. Now when he’s the biggest star on the planet nobody remembers that. But it’s a great way to start and they’ve sort of continued with that casting throughout in terms of casting great people, and interesting people, and people you wouldn’t expect.”

New Muppets film: Muppets Most Wanted with Celine Dion, Lady Gaga, Ricky Gervais, Tina Faye, Puff Daddy

The Muppets are back!
 Muppets Most Wanted is described as an American musical comedy mystery film, The film is a sequel to 2011's The Muppets and stars Ricky Gervais, Ty Burrell, and Tina Fey.[
In the film, the Muppets find themselves unwillingly involved in an international crime caper while on tour in Europe.
Muppets Most Wanted will be released on March 21, 2014

In an interview with  Entertainment Weekly , Kermit the Frog said
"The idea of this film is that our gang is on this global tour, and we’re selling out these grand theaters all over Europe—in Berlin, Madrid, London—but we sort of get into a little bit of trouble when we run across my Doppelgänger. He’s the world’s number one criminal, Constantine, and he happens to look an awful lot like me. I won’t tell you any more than that, but let’s just say mayhem ensues."[
When asked if Kermit will be doing a dual role when it comes to being asked if he was also playing Constantine, Kermit responded;
"No. We talked about putting me in makeup and having me play both roles, but we decided Constantine needed to be a guy who could do a Russian accent. And, you know, I'm a pretty accomplished actor and all, but besides The Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island films, I've only really ever played myself. The great thing is, I have like 3,000 relatives back in the swamp, so it was quite easy to find a frog who could play Constantine."[

Muppets Most Wanted will also feature, Celine Dion, Lady Gaga, Ricky Gervais, Tina Faye, Puff Daddy, Zach Galifianakis, Salma Hayek, Uher, Kermit the frog, miss piggy, Dany Trejo, Ray Liotta, Tom Hiddleton and many more
