Watchmen trailer #2 music overlaps GTA IV trailer music

Excerpt:

The overlap between the GTA IV video game and Watchmen movie fan-bases should be fairly large, but it doesn’t follow that they should use the same musical score. In early 2007, GTA IV was heralded by a gorgeous trailer with graphics that stunned players of previous installments of the game. The classical-sounding score was equally [...]

Dead actor drives millions to theaters

Excerpt:

Despite it’s blockbuster status, The Dark Knight is a pretty damn good film. (My Way News – ‘Dark Knight’ grosses $300M, shattering record.) Would it have broken box office records even without the allure of catching Heath Ledger’s final performance? Was it morbid curiosity or paying respect to a life taken too soon that drove [...]

The Brothers Bloom…

Excerpt:

…looks like a cross between a Wes Anderson and a Guy Ritchie movie. Wasn’t it only a matter of time before someone combined those two sub-sub-genres??? The Brothers Bloom Trailer – Trailer Addict Written and directed by Rian Johnson (w&d of 2005′s lukewarm “high school noir” Brick) it stars Rachel Weisz, Adrien Brody, Mark Ruffalo, [...]

From Gizmodo — Nerdgasm: Watchmen Trailer Hits Web a Day Early

Excerpt:

Looks good to me, but I’ve only read Watchmen once. Not sure if the storyline about the previous generation of superheroes will be in there or not, but it looks like the material is being handled with an appropriate amount of gravity. I know Alan Moore isn’t too happy about the way the movie is [...]

Post-NCFOM Coen Bros’ flick, Burn After Reading, promises return to Coen-normalcy

Excerpt:

It’s no secret that I didn’t appreciate No Country for Old Men (NCFOM) as much as the Hollywood machine did. A second viewing has softened my stance. There’s a theoretical plot twist that makes more sense the second time around. The feeling of being lead around by the nose dissipates as well once you know [...]

Battlestar Galactica tears the roof off the sucker…

Excerpt:

Last week’s episode was phenomenal! I was getting worried because this season started out weak, but “Guess What’s Coming for Dinner?” (episode 7 of season 4) is a return to the show’s peak form. The story’s ribbons are frayed and worn from overworked subplots that flared-out, but the writers did such kick-ass weaving-tightening job they [...]

Iron Man earned universal praise, now bring on the backlash!

Excerpt:

How great a thing looks depends on the viewer’s perspective, and Jon Favreau‘s Iron Man movie is no exception. If you’re expecting a serious, gritty take on a tormented anti-hero like Batman Begins you will be disappointed. If your benchmarks are the cartoonish and sloppy Fantastic Four movies you will want Iron Man given an [...]

Mamet puts Redbelt in the squared circle

Excerpt:

David Mamet’s got a new confidence game movie starring a few of his regulars like Joe Mantegna, Ricky Jay, Rebecca Pidgeon and The Unit’s Max Martini. (“Max Martini”?!?! Not many career options with that name…) It centers around a struggling martial arts teacher (Chiwetel Ejiofor) with a distaste for competition who’s unique combat training style [...]
