Avengers Gets A New Name And A New Poster To Prove It

By Leave a Comment

Marvel’s The Avengers is no more, in the UK at least, as with less than two months before its release, the movie has a new title. So what’s it going to be called? Well, distributor Disney has revealed it’ll be known as Marvel Avengers Assemble in Britain, and they’ve released the poster above to prove it.

An Avengers assemble trailer is promised tomorrow afternoon, which will hopefully be packed with cool footage. The new title seems to have been adopted because casual moviegoers were wondering if it was another remake of 1960s Avengers TV show.

Just one question though, why in the poster is Chris Evans about 25ft tall?

Here’s the amended official synopsis: ‘Marvel Studios presents “Marvel Avengers Assemble”—the Super Hero team up of a lifetime, featuring iconic Marvel Super Heroes Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow.

Fresh Pics From The Hobbit, Argo & Snow White and the Huntsman

By Leave a Comment

In the war between the rival Snow White movies, Snow White & the Huntsman is certainly winning on the style front. It looks very cool, which should stand it in good stead when it arrives in cinemas on June 1st. It may be coming after Mirror Mirror, but the smart money is on Huntsman, starring Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron, to win at the box office.

Enjoy the new pics from the film above and below and under that are fresh images from Argo and The Hobbit.

Although hardly anyone in the pic above is recognisable, that’s Ben Affleck in the middle, in this pic from Argo, which he both directs and stars in. The movie tells the true-life tale of a daring CIA plan to get hostages out of Iran in the late 70s by pretending they wanted to make a movie. It’ll be out later this year.

And we’ll finish off with Bilbo surrounding by dwarves in The Hobbit. Part one of the two part adaptation hits cinemas this December.

BAFTA Orange Rising Star Nominees Announced

By Leave a Comment

The full nominations for the BAFTAs aren’t out until next week, but this morning the nominees for the Orange Rising Star Award were announced, so that the public can vote for the winner. So who’s up for the gong? Take a look below to find out…


Adam Deacon (Anuvahood, Kidulthood)


Chris Hemsworth (Thor)


Eddie Redmayne (My Week With Marilyn)


Tom Hiddleston (Thor)


Chris O’Dowd (Bridesmaids)

The nominees were whittled down from a longlist that also included Jessica Chastain, Felicity Jones and Jennifer Lawrence. It’s already been noted that it’s an all male list this year, and it does seem slightly odd that the three people on the longlist who aren’t in the final nominees are the women, especially in the case of Jessica Chastain and Jennifer Lawrence, who’ve had incredible years.

What’s less noted is that for the first time, there are absolutely no Americans amongst the nominees.

The winner is picked by the public, so once you’ve decided who you want to walk away with the award, click here to vote. The winner will be announced on February 12th.
