We didn't get any more news about the new Jurassic World film at CinemaCon last week; Universal was [rightfully] too busy doing a victory lap and hyping up the rest of the 2024 releases. However, this film will be a significant part of 2025 and will start shooting very soon. The cast is starting to […]
Trailers and posters might be good for marketing films, but sometimes, you need to explain things a little faster, and sometimes, you need to take advantage of the fact that you have extremely charismatic leads. That is what Universal is doing with The Fall Guy. They shared a new video with stars Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt summarizing […]
Wicked ruled CinemaCon last night at the end of the big Universal presentation, with the people in attendance praising all of the footage that was shown. Today, they have a bunch of the screen-worn costumes on display, and our very own BC reporters snapped some gorgeous pics of them for you all to see. Starring […]
CinemaCon is upon us once again. Every year, NATO [not that NATO], the National Association of Theater Owners gather in Las Vegas to look ahead to the rest of the year. Ever since the pandemic, the vibes of CinemaCon have shifted considerably, and, in many ways, it still feels like the industry is recovering and […]
Last night, attendees at CinemaCon were added to the group of people who got to see The Fall Guy. Universal is looking to kick off the summer on a high note, and so far, things look like that could happen. The early reactions are pretty good overall, and it's nice to see that Universal has […]
Gladiator II made its debut at CinemaCon…sort of. Well, the logo did, and the confirmation that the title is going to be Gladiator II which is kind of a letdown. There were so many options they could have taken, but they went with the easy one. It's not that surprising, even if it is a little […]
In the current cinema landscape, the concept of artificial intelligence (and its dangerous potential) continues to captivate audiences and creators alike. Something specifically explored in the 2014 sci-fi thriller Ex Machina, which delves deep into the complexities of AI sentience, having sparked conversations about the ethical implications and existential questions surrounding this exact topic. And […]
It's been 16 years since the release of the 2008 film Wanted, centered around Wesley Gibson, a member of a secret society of assassins, who also learns that his father was a member of the society labeled the Fraternity. And even though the film (based on comics by Mark Millar) managed to garner a positive […]
It seems that Abigail is out to remind child-free people why they decided to be child-free. Not really, but the concept of a tiny vampire ballerina remains one of the best things to come out of the monster genre in a while, so it is nice to see people still changing it up in this genre. […]
It feels like we're writing about Monkey Man nearly every other day and that's kind of a nice thing to see. It's not often that we see a studio like Universal throw this much marketing behind a film that is on the smaller side like this. The number of featurettes and everything else is usually what we […]
We already know that Jordan Peele could not be a bigger stan for Monkey Man, and we got another featurette from Universal talking about how much he loves this movie, but specifically, how talented Dev Patel is as a director. This is a big project to take on as a directorial debut, and action is not an easy […]
A new Jurassic World film is in the works and it's reportedly set to start shooting this summer. However, there was a bit of back and forth about who would direct the film with David Leitch initially emerging as the frontrunner, but now it appears that the job has gone to Gareth Edwards. Since the film is […]
The Fall Guy made a decent splash at South by Southwest, and Universal is likely hoping that they can continue to ride the wave of decent press until the movie is released at the beginning of May. They are doing a lot of press for this film, so maybe they can pull that off. The […]
The Fall Guy is a movie about stunts and stunt performers, but that doesn't mean that star Ryan Gosling didn't get his hands dirty, either. There are lots of reasons that actors don't do their own stunts, but some of them do like to do stuff when they can. According to a new interview with […]
While many of the Monkey Man trailers so far have focused on the bone-breaking action, the new trailer that Universal Pictures just released has decided to spotlight the social commentary in this film as well. This isn't just an action movie, but it's making a [pretty on the nose, but that isn't a bad thing] statement […]
The Fall Guy had its premiere at South by Southwest, and right now, things are looking pretty good. While we do have to consider Festival Brain and the fact that there is very little room for nuance at film festivals, it looks like we might be off to a solid start for the summer season. […]
Monkey Man may have just premiered at South by Southwest on the 11th and isn't out until April 5th, but there is at least one stan out there, and it's Jordan Peele. So far, the early reviews coming out of SXSW for Monkey Man look pretty positive, but reviews out of film festivals tend to […]
If the early reactions are anything to go by, and they aren't always are because Festival Brain very much is a thing, Universal is getting ready to kick off another big action movie that could also help kick off the summer blockbuster season in a big way. The Fall Guy looks like one of the big […]
Abigail is a project that feels like it came out of nowhere, but it looks like a lot of fun. Just the premise alone is enough to get people into the theater to see some as buckwild insane: "Dracula's ballerina daughter absolutely wrecks the people who kidnapped her." The cast is pretty good also, and […]
We knew that The Fall Guy was going to be an homage to classic stunts and the people who made them, but it turns out when a studio as big as Universal cuts you a check, you might as well use it and try to break some world records while you're at it. At least, that […]
