New Hot Tub Time Machine 2 Trailer – Adam Scott, Craig Robinson and co. head for the future

December 10, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Hot-Tub-Time-Machine-2-posterHot Tub Time Machine 2 is making an early bid for least called for sequel of 2015 (no one really wanted the first film all that much), but on the evidence of this trailer, it may actually be better than the first film.

While the first film took the characters back to the 80s in the titular hot tub time machine, this time they’ll be going to the future. As this allows them to know about the future, it means they were able to change their lives – not always for the better. They also meet Adam Scott’s Adam, who’s the son of John Cusack’s character.

A February 20th US release is set, with the movie arriving in the UK two days before that. Take a look at the trailer below, and the new poster above. [Read more…]

Mad Max: Fury Road Trailer – Tom Hardy takes on the Road Warrior and it’s looking good

December 10, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

mad-max-fury-road-pic1Few films have taken as long to get to the screen as Mad Max: Fury Road, or seemingly been so unlucky. Indeed at one point several years ago the movie was fully cast and ready to go, and then a massive storm in Australia destroyed the set and the whole thing was delayed by a year and moved to Australia.

Even after it finally went in front on the lens in late 2012 they’ve been keeping us waiting, as it’s not due in UK cinemas until May 15 2015. However to get us in the mood a truly explosive new trailer has arrived, which suggests this is going to be a movie that’s really, really big on action.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From Oscar-winning director George Miller, originator of the post-apocalyptic genre and mastermind behind the legendary “Mad Max” franchise, comes “Mad Max: Fury Road,” a return to the world of the Road Warrior, Max Rockatansky.

‘Haunted by his turbulent past, Mad Max believes the best way to survive is to wander alone. Nevertheless, he becomes swept up with a group fleeing across the Wasteland in a War Rig driven by an elite Imperator, Furiosa. They are escaping a Citadel tyrannized by the Immortan Joe, from whom something irreplaceable has been taken. Enraged, the Warlord marshals all his gangs and pursues the rebels ruthlessly in the high-octane Road War that follows.

‘Miller directed from a screenplay he wrote with Brendan McCarthy and Nico Lathouris. Miller also produces, along with Doug Mitchell and P.J. Voeten. Iain Smith, Graham Burke and Bruce Berman serve as executive producers.’ [Read more…]

Kingsman: The Secret Service Red Band Trailer – Colin Firth gets in on the action in Matthew Vaughn’s film

December 10, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

kingsman-the-secret-service-slideFollowing Kick-ass, Matthew Vaughn is returning to the world of comic creators Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons with Kingsman: The Secret Service. With a late January UK release looming (and mid-February in the US), a great looking new red band trailer has now arrived, which you can watch below.

The film tells the story of a super-secret spy organization that recruits an unrefined but promising street kid into the agency’s ultra-competitive training program just as a global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius.

Colin Firth (The King’s Speech), Samuel L. Jackson (Captain America: The First Avenger), Taron Egerton (The Smoke, Lewis) and Michael Caine (The Dark Knight Rises) star. It’s due out in the UK on January 29th, 2015. [Read more…]

Three Episode 2 – Can ‘Mr. Hot Bottom’ add some spice to a long-term gay relationship

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

three-s1-ep2Last week we posted the first episode of Three, the new gay-themed web series looking at a couple dealing with being in a long-term relationship and wondering whether monogamy is a good idea or not.

Now comes Episode 2, where the boys are on the web are looking into the possibilities of having a threesome. They find the colourfully named ‘Mr. Hot Bottom’, which leads them in unexpected directions as they navigate the tricky world of internet hook-ups – not least wondering what to do if the guy they’re meeting turns out to be a serial killer.

And what happens if you suddenly realise you really don’t want a threesome after all?

Four more episodes are due over the coming weeks, with creator Jeff Swafford hoping to make Season 2 early next year. And if you need to, you can catch up on Episode 1 by clicking here. [Read more…]

Susan Sarandon & Kathy Bates Join Queer Filmmaker Xavier Dolan’s First English-Language Film

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

kathy-bates-susan-sarandonBack in September it was revealed that Xavier Dolan fan Jessica Chastain had signed on to star in the Quebecois filmmaker’s first English-language movie. Now she’s has some company, with the queer director ensuring that the film has plenty of impressive female talent by adding Kathy Bates and Susan Sarandon to the cast. Kit Harington is also set to star.

The new movie is called The Death and Life of John F. Donovan, which Dolan has previously described as “the story of an American movie star with everything working out for him who has a secretive correspondence with an 11 year old in London.”

THR expands on that, saying Kit Harington’s title character is famed for playing a popular superhero, ‘whose life and career are turned upside-down when his private correspondence with an 11-year-old fan is exposed and made to look indecent by a villainous gossip columnist (Jessica Chastain).’

Kathy Bates is set to be Donovan’s high-powered manager, while Sarandon will play his mother.

Dolan comments, “I’m so psyched about working with these two wonderful, mythical actresses. My excitement is almost convulsive.”

He adds, “Susan Sarandon’s role of the mother is tricky for me because it’s feels very real. The rapport my mom has with my life [since my profile has risen] — and of course I’m not as famous as the character of Donovan — is different now. I think all people can relate to this because whenever you walk out of the path that’s been traced for you, people from your old life find it a little menacing, because it questions their own worth.”

Dolan made waves when he won a prize at Cannes for his directorial debut, I Killed My Mother, which he helmed when he was only 18-years-old. He’s made four more acclaimed films since then (Heartbeats, Laurence Anyways, Tom At The Farm and Mommy), all of which have concerned the queer experience in one way or another.

New Pics Of Zachary Quinto & James Franco In The Gay-Themed Michael Arrive

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

michael-pic1A couple of weeks ago the very first picture from Michael arrived, and now a few more pics of Zachary Quinto, Emma Roberts and James Franco in the gay-themed movie have arrived, which you can take a look at above and below.

Based on a true story, in Michael Franco play Michael Glatze, who went from being a prominent gay rights advocate to becoming one of the poster-boys for the ex-gay movement when he found God, renounced his homosexuality and married a woman, after a health scare made him reassess his life. Quinto plays Glatze’s onetime boyfriend, with Emma Roberts, Darryl Hannah and Charlie Carver also starring.

The film may be changing its title to I Am Michael, as that IMDB listing has recently been changed to suggest that alteration.

Expect it in cinemas sometime next year. (Pics via Attitude)

San Andreas Trailer – The Big One is coming (and we don’t just mean Dwayne Johnson)

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

san-andreas-slideIt’s surprising that it’s taken this long for Hollywood to make a massive 3D earthquake movie, but 2015 will see one in the form of San Andreas. And by the looks of it, it’s out to prove Roland Emmerich (Day After Tomorrow, 2012) isn’t the only person who can show disaster on a ridiculously epic scale.

The main human stuck in the middle of this tectonic Armageddon is Dwayne Johnson, although the trailer knows the stars of the show here are the building collapsing, the earth shaking and the dams bursting. It’s fair to say that the movie believes that when a huge quake hits LA, the city is completely buggered (although oddly most of the film was shot in Australia).

Here’s the synopsis: ‘After the infamous San Andreas Fault finally gives, triggering a magnitude 9 earthquake in California, a search and rescue helicopter pilot (Dwayne Johnson) and his estranged wife make their way together from Los Angeles to San Francisco to save their only daughter.

‘But their treacherous journey north is only the beginning. And when they think the worst may be over…it’s just getting started.

‘The action thriller “San Andreas,” from New Line Cinema and Village Roadshow Pictures, reunites Dwayne Johnson with director Brad Peyton and producer Beau Flynn, following their collaboration on the global hit “Journey 2: The Mysterious Island.”’

A May 29th, 2015 release is set. [Read more…]

The Walk Trailer – Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Robert Zemeckis take on a high wire act

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

the-walk-slideIt looks like Joseph Gordon-Levitt enjoyed looking nothing like Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Looper, as it appears he’s at it again with The Walk, where he’s transformed himself into Philippe Petit.

In 1974 the daredevil infamously, and illegally, walked on a tightrope between the Twin Towers of New York’s World Trade Center, as shown in the acclaimed documentary Man On Wire.

The Walk, directed by Robert Zemeckis, takes a look at this incredible event.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Twelve people have walked on the moon, but only one man has ever, or will ever, walk in the immense void between the World Trade Center towers. Guided by his real-life mentor, Papa Rudy (Ben Kingsley), and aided by an unlikely band of international recruits, Petit and his gang overcome long odds, betrayals, dissension and countless close calls to conceive and execute their mad plan. Robert Zemeckis, the director of such marvels as Forrest Gump, Cast Away, Back to the Future, Polar Express and Flight, again uses cutting edge technology in the service of an emotional, character-driven story. With innovative photorealistic techniques and IMAX 3D wizardry, The Walk is true big-screen cinema, a chance for moviegoers to viscerally experience the feeling of reaching the clouds. The film is a love letter to Paris and New York City in the 1970s, but most of all, to the Towers of the World Trade Center.’

The movie is due out autumn 2015. [Read more…]

Still Alice Trailer – Julianne Moore is struck with early-onset Alzheimer’s

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It seems likely Julianne Moore will be bidding for award nominations for Still Alice, which is the sort of movie the Academy of others often love, giving an actor the chance to show off their skill while playing a character dealing with serious illness.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Alice Howland, happily married with three grown children, is a renowned linguistics professor who starts to forget words. When she receives a diagnosis of Early-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease, Alice and her family find their bonds thoroughly tested. Her struggle to stay connected to who she once was is frightening, heartbreaking, and inspiring.’

The film is out in New York and LA now and will spread to the rest of the US starting January 16, 2015, while an early March 2015 UK release is set. [Read more…]

The Last Five Years Trailer – Anna Kendrick & Jeremy Jordan get romantic in the musical tale

December 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

last-five-years-slideA touching story of heartbreak and passion, The Last Five Years, based on the hit off-Broadway musical, stars Academy Award nominee Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan in this honest and funny portrayal of the highs and lows of a five year relationship.

Told almost entirely through song from a score by Jason Robert Brown, the film, which received its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, is directed and adapted for the screen by Richard LaGravenese and will be released across the UK in Spring 2015.

Filled with the lively energy of New York City’s cultural milieu, the film tells the story of the five-year relationship between rising novelist Jamie Wellerstein (Jeremy Jordan) and struggling actress Cathy Hyatt (Anna Kendrick). As Jamie’s new novel vaults him to the top of the literary scene, Cathy is still doing summer stock in Ohio, and their diverging levels of success pose pressing and dire challenges to their love. The film tells Cathy’s side of the story in reverse order, starting from the end of their marriage, while Jamie’s version of events begins when the couple first meets. [Read more…]
