Banshee. Just add the term to your lexicon now – because after seeing the groundbreaking “interactive trailer” for “Avatar,” I’m more convinced than ever that these flying predators will go down as one of the more ferocious and memorable creatures in sci-fi history.
At noon (eastern) today, Twentieth Century Fox will …
“Ninja Assassin” uses the full arsenal: Swords, chains, ninja stars, bamboo sticks, semi-automatics and even rocket launchers. Bodies are sliced, diced, mutilated and cut in half. The film’s very first swing of a sword involves the slicing of a man’s skull; his brains spill out as he tumbles over. All those girls who show up …
Another weekend, another revelation about the casting of the upcoming “Thor” blockbuster, being developed by Marvel and directed by Kenneth Branagh.
In an interview with MTV News, Natalie Portman – who is set to star in “Thor” as Jane Foster alongside Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Hopins and Idris Elba – let slip that Kat Dennings …
Depending on who you talk to, “Paranormal Activitiy” is either the terrifying DIY indie thriller of the decade, or an amateurish overhyped hack-job. But given that it made more than $100 million at the box office – after costing less to make than a new car – here’s a good bet that the debates which started in packed movie theaters …
There’s a lot of competition this week for your Thanksgiving movie dollars. You’ve got the bloody martial arts of “Ninja Assassin.” The apocalyptic chills of “The Road.” But I’m rooting for a dark horse – or dark fox, rather – to take the crown this holiday weekend.
For all us elitist media types, Wes Anderson’s …
UPDATE III (Jan. 10): The final list has just been announced! Go here to see which films made the cut.
So I hear you like lists.
Seriously: All of us here at Techland have been told by our online overlords that lists go over big in these tubes of the intrawebs. So we’ve been ordered to come up with an initial batch of big-time …
I don’t know about you, but when I hear the name NASA, I think of shuttles, telescopes, astronauts and outer space. I think of sitting down to the computer and flipping through high-res images of stars, nebulae, or the surface of Mars (seriously, check these shots out.)
But apparently today’s kids need something more than the …
When it comes to “2012,” public opinion seems to range from “it’s awful” to “not-so-bad” to “so-bad-it’s-great.” I consider myself a member of the latter group; 90 minutes of wall-to-wall Earth demolition can’t be all bad. (Check out my interview with the master of disaster himself, director Roland Emmerich)
But there’s one …
130 minutes. That’s the running time of “The Twilight Saga: New Moon.” And at minute 125, audiences of swooning tweens around the world will let out an audible gasp before erupting into cheers. At least that’s what happened late Wednesday on New York’s Upper West Side, when the very first “New Moon” audience lost its …
So the good people over at “Star Wars: In Concert” have thrown some serious love our way.The force is strong with these few.
A couple days ago, I posted some initial thoughts about this traveling “Star Wars” production, and thanks to your feedback – and their rapid outreach – we’ll be sitting down to talk with narrator Anthony …
Did you sense it – the euphoria of a billion tweens that clogged the tubes of the intrawebs Monday night? As Twitter ground to a halt during the film’s west coast red carpet premiere, it became abundantly clear: “New Moon” is going to be big this weekend. Some are talking $80 million big. Yes, we’re aware.
In fact, we were aware of …
One more night for AMC’s “The Prisoner,” and the intimidation is getting unbearable.
We had a chance to talk with star Jim Caviezel, about the tit for tat psychological warfare being waged between his character, Six, and the smirking, sinister Ian McKellen (read the full interview here). And then AMC was kind enough to give us …
