The Maze Runner Gets The World’s Most Literal Poster, Featuring Dylan O’Brien & Will Poulter

July 28, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Maze-Runner-Poster2People around the world have probably been wondering what The Maze Runner is all about, so 20th Century Fox has come up with a poster to make things clear – in the movie there will be a maze, and people will do some running. Who would have thought?

It’s actually not a bad image though, even if it does seem a little to literal for our tastes.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Based on the best-selling young adult thriller, THE MAZE RUNNER is set in a post-apocalyptic world, where Thomas is deposited in a community of young men after his memory is erased. After learning they’re all trapped in a maze, Thomas joins forces with fellow “runners” to not only escape the maze, but solve its riddle and reveal the chilling secret of who brought them there, and why.’

Dylan O’Brien, Will Poulter, Kaya Scodelaria, Thomas Brodie-Sangster and Patricia Clarkson star. It’ll be out in cinemas in October.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 Teaser Trailer – Revolution is brewing for Katniss and co.

July 28, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

hunger-games-mockingjay-poster-slideIt’s here! After some smart marketing where The Capitol has been calling for unity in a very iron fist in a velvet glove way, the teaser trailer for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 is here, and you can watch it below.

Revolution seems inevitable, but Katniss still isn’t sure if she wants to be the poster child for it, even if the Districts do need someone to rally around. The teaser also gives us a look at Julianne Moore as Alma Coin, whose feeling about Katniss may not be entirely altruistic.

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 is due out November 21st, 2014, with the final film (until an inevitable further sequel or spin-off is announced), The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, out the same time the following year.

Take a look at the teaser trailer below. [Read more…]

Mad Max: Fury Road Comic Con Trailer – Tom Hardy gets apocalyptic in the awesome first footage

July 27, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

mad-max-fury-road-character-poster1-slideThis year there have been fewer trailer than usual that first screened at Comic Con and were shortly afterwards available online. However now we have a doozy, as the Comic Con trailer for Mad Max: Fury Road has been released, and it looks pretty awesome.

We still have to wait until May next year to see it, but it’s starting to seem like the ridiculously long wait we’ve had for the movie (it shot in 2012) will be worth it. Take a look at the trailer below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘The post-apocalyptic action film is set in the furthest reaches of our planet, in a stark desert landscape where humanity is broken, and most everyone is crazed fighting for the necessities of life.

‘Within this world of fire and blood exist two rebels on the run who just might be able to restore order… There’s Max, a man of action and a man of few words, who seeks peace of mind following the loss of his wife and child in the aftermath of the chaos.

‘And… Furiosa, a woman of action and a woman who believes her path to survival may be achieved if she can make it across the desert back to her childhood homeland.’

And if the trailer isn’t enough, take a look at the character posters we posted earlier today. [Read more…]

Tom Hardy Is Looking Hot As Mad Max Fury Road Character Posters Debut

July 27, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

mad-max-fury-road-character-poster1Mad Max Fury Road is finally set to arrive in cinemas May 2015 after a ridiculously long time in development and almost three years after it was actually filmed. To help get the excitement building the film has made it presence felt at Comic Con, and that includes releasing the rather cool posters you can see above and below.

They feature Tom Hardy as the titular Max, Charlize Theron’s Imperator Furiosa, Hugh Keays-Bynre as Immortal Joe and an almost unrecognisable Nicholas Hoult as Nux.

King Kong Movie Skull Island Announced

July 27, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

king-kongWhen Legendary Pictures had their shingle at Warner Brothers, they got involved in all manner of the studios properties, such as Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight movies. Now they’ve moved to Universal and are looking into that studio’s back catalogue. Perhaps unsurprisingly they have come up with King Kong.

At Comic Con, Legendary managed to surprise the Hall H audience with a teaser trailer that many apparently initially thought was going to be for Jurassic World, but ending up taking the viewers through a lush, tropical island until they finally meet the star of the show, Kong himself.

The film will be called Skull Island, and will presumably be a prequel set in the place that is Kong’s home. No other story details were released.

During the panel Legendary also announced that in Godzilla 2, the big lizard will fight Mothra, King Ghidorah and Rodan. Now some are wondering if we’ll eventually get Godzilla Vs. Kong.

Horns Trailer – What’s growing out of Daniel Radcliffe’s forehead?

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

horns-teaser-trailerHorns certainly shows a different side of Daniel Radcliffe – although you have to wait until the very end to properly see what’s really changed about him for this role, as he literally has horns growing out of his forehead.

In Horns, ‘Ig Perrish (Daniel Radcliffe) is accused of the violent rape and killing of his girlfriend, Merrin Williams (Juno Temple). After a hard night of drinking, Ig awakens, hungover, to find horns growing out of his head; they have the ability to drive people to confess sins and give in to selfish impulses. Ig decides to use this effective tool to discover the circumstances of his girlfriend’s death and to seek revenge by finding the true murderer.’

It certainly look pretty intense and rather unusual. Alexandre Aja (The Hills Have Eyes) direct.

It’ll be in cinemas later this year. [Read more…]

Tusk Trailer – Justin Long & Haley Joel Osment star in Kevin Smith’s strange movie

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

tuskEver since it was announced, Tusk sounded like a strange film, and the trailer does nothing to disabuse us of that idea.

Indeed it’s perhaps even stranger than we might have thought it would be – Michael Parks’ old soldier doesn’t want to die alone, even if that means holding someone hostage and trying to turn him into a walrus!

With Long tied to a chair by a madman, it’s up to his friends to find him. Genesis Rodriguez, Haley Joel Osment and Ralph Garman co-star.

Take a look at the trailer below and decide for yourself whether this is so bonkers it might be inspired, or whether it’s just completely nuts. [Read more…]

Joaquin Phoenix in Talks For Marvel’s Doctor Strange

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

camp-the-documentary-joaquin-phoenixVarious names have been rumoured for the title role in Marvel’s Doctor Strange, such as Benedict Cumberbatch. However the man who’s likely to take the job has slightly come out of left field, as THR reports that Joaquin Phoenix is in talks for the role.

Although he hasn’t accepted yet, it’s believed Marvel is hoping to get him to accept quickly and they may even officially announce him during their Comic-Con 2014 panel. It’s believed a sticking point might arise if Marvel wants Phoenix to sign one of their usual long-term contracts, as he’s more likely to want a per-film deal.

If he does sign on, it’d certainly be something different for the actor, who has generally steered clear of big blockbuster type movies. However it’s suggested co-stars such as Jeremy Renner (The Immigrant), Scarlett Johansson (Her), and Josh Brolin (Inherent Vice) have helped convince him it’s worth becoming part of the Marvel Universe.

If you don’t know the character, Doctor Strange is a former neurosurgeon, a practicing sorcerer, and serves as the Sorcerer Supreme, the primary protector of Earth against magical and mystical threats.

Edgar Wright To Direct Film About Sexual Identity Confusion & Killer Praying Mantises

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Edgar-Wright2After his last minute departure from Ant-Man, Edgar Wright has had to look around for other things to do. It’s already been revealed that he plans to shoot one of his long-gestating projects next, the action crime flick Baby Driver, and now he’s signed on for a new one.

He signed up for Sony Pictures’ Grasshopper Jungle, based on Andrew Smith Dutton’s young adult novel, according to Deadline.

Scott Rosenberg will write the screenplay, which is a coming-of-age story about an Iowa teenager, who think his worst problem is confusion over his sexual identity, as he can’t tell whether he’s in love with his friend Robby or his girlfriend, Shann. However things get decidedly more complicated when he and Robby accidentally unleash a deadly, genetically engineered plague of 6-foot-tall praying mantises.

The bugs ‘live a life the boys could only dream of, acting out on their insatiable appetites for food, fighting and fornicating’.

While with most Hollywood films we’d worry the issue around sexual identity would be erased for the screen, with Wright at the helm it’s hopeful they will remain and become a major part of the movie.

It’s believed Wright will shoot the movie directly after Baby Driver

The Full Avengers: Age Of Ultron Concept Art Poster Is Here

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

avengers-comic-con-poster10Yesterday we posted four Avengers: Age Of Ultron concept art posters, and now we’ve got the other four, which all piece together to make the giant battle poster above.

The new posters feature Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver, Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor. And if you look at the Quicksilver pic you’ll notice someone floating about in the background, which is believed to be Vision.

Vision is the sentient, embodied version of Paul Bettany’s Jarvis, Tony Stark’s assistant. However it’s now known what side he’ll be on, or whether as in the comics he is created by villainous Ultron, which is other Stark tech designed to help mankind when the Avengers aren’t around, but which goes rogue and causes all manner of trouble.

Take a look at the posters above and below.
