The Flash movie’s Teddy Sears doppelgänger has been identified.
Coming out of early screenings of the DC movie, more than a few comic book sites did Easter egg/cameo round-ups that included Sears as a Golden Age Flash spotted during the “Chronobowl” sequence toward the end of the film, which surveyed the heroes of other timelines.

Despite sporting a running time (no pun intended) of over two and a half hours, The Flash manages to provide the character with a solid and satisfying stand-alone adventure that does the property justice.
The DC Extended Cinematic Universe (Dcecu) is expanded exponentially when Barry Allen (aka The Flash) travels back in time to “correct” certain events in his past. This inadvertently creates a cascading butterfly effect that threatens the reality that Barry finds himself trapped in – a world without heroes – in which General Zod (Michael Shannon) is on the verge of conquering. That is, unless Barry can convince Batman to don his cowl once again to liberate a certain incarcerated Kryptonian (albeit not the one he is expecting).
Director Andy Muschietti’s film retains the somberness of his previous offerings in the horror genre – Mama (2013), It (2017), and It Chapter Two (2017) – however, it also manages to overcome many of the...

Check out the stellar new trailer for The Flash.
Directed by Andy Muschietti, Ezra Miller reprises their role as Barry Allen in the DC Super Hero’s first-ever standalone feature film.
Worlds collide in “The Flash” when Barry uses his superpowers to travel back in time in order to change the events of the past. But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to turn to. That is, unless Barry can coax a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian… albeit not the one he’s looking for. Ultimately, to save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows, Barry’s only hope is to race for his life. But will making the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?...

Once again, Jake Gyllenhaal churns out a committed, visceral performance in Antoine Fuqua’s contained thriller “The Guilty.” The film’s world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival brings up the fascinating question — when will Gyllenhaal get another Oscar nomination?
It’s been over 15 years since the Los Angeles-born actor was nominated for supporting actor in Ang Lee’s romantic cowboy drama “Brokeback Mountain” (2005) opposite Heath Ledger. The film went on to win three Oscars for directing, adapted screenplay (Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana) and original score (Gustavo Santaolalla). Notwithstanding the infamous “Crash” win for best picture over “Brokeback,” the actor race was also interesting during that season: Gyllenhaal’s Jack Twist missed out on a Golden Globe nomination due to HFPA moving the performance to lead status, and then was followed by a SAG nomination and a shocking BAFTA win where eventual Oscar-winner George Clooney was double nominated...

It is not really accurate calling this second chapter to Andy Muschietti’s immensely successful 2017 film It: Chapter One a sequel. Instead, I prefer to think of it as one whole monster of an adaptation of Stephen King’s mighty horror tome It, a novel many think of as the legendary author’s magnum opus. However, after the first half of the story conquered the box office and won acclaim from fans and critics alike, this second chapter always had serious hype to match, not to mention wrangling the more problematic – and fantasy driven – end of King’s narrative to the big screen (see how the 1990 miniseries version suffered with its second half). Miraculously, Muschietti’s It: Chapter Two stands side by side with his first chapter beautifully and advances the past as well as the present.
To say the film’s hefty (just shy of) 3-hour running length has been hotly debated,...

"Derry's not like any town I've ever been in before. People die or disappear six times the national average. And that's just grown-ups. Kids are worse... way, way worse." Ancient, evil, and looking for new victims, Pennywise the clown stalks the young residents of Derry in New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Pictures' unsettling first teaser trailer for It, based on Stephen King's epic 1986 novel of the same name.

“Let go. Be afraid. You all taste so much better when you’re afraid.” – It.
Winter of 1990 and ABC showed a miniseries that scared the living daylights out of viewers with it images of clowns and balloons. These were the days of Vcr’s and cassette tapes, when DVR’s and Blu-ray weren’t even thought of yet.
The miniseries It was true water-cooler banter for the next morning. Starring Richard Thomas, Tim Reid, Annette O’Toole, Richard Masur, Dennis Christopher, Harry Anderson and Tim Curry, it was based on the novel by Stephen King.
In 1960, seven pre-teen outcasts fight an evil demon who poses as a child-killing clown. Thirty years later, they reunite to stop the demon once and for all when it returns to their hometown.

Good news for fans of Stephen King's classic 1986 horror novel It: the movie version doesn't look like it'll skimp on the extensive plot that follows Bill and the rest of his childhood friends as they seek to end the terrifying reign of Pennywise the Clown in their small town of Derry, Maine.
The BBFC have slapped It with a 15 certificate, which was certainly expected from the disturbing trailers we've had so far for the film, and it'll be 134 minutes long, so you're in for a bit of a sit down when it arrives in cinemas next month. You can also expect "strong horror, violence and language." The film was passed uncut.

There has been no film like this before. There will be no film like this ever again.
Unless George Miller gets Warner Brothers to fork up another enormous budget and let him run wild, that is. Miller’s goal with Mad Max: Fury Road was to create a 2 hour long chase movie, and he has succeeded beyond any expectations. Mad Max and The Road Warrior were staples of my youth, and Road Warrior still stands tall as one of the greatest action films of all time. That’s not to slight Mad Max, or to completely write off Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, but Road Warrior is a brilliant piece of film making. Fury Road has been in the works for a quarter century in one form or another. Just soak that in for a minute. Thunderdome was released in 1985, and a few years later Miller began planning another chapter. Decades pass,...

Moulin Rouge! is a mixed bag. It’s an idea that looks good on paper, but looks horrendous in execution. It’s a film where it should have the ability to make all the right emotional pivots, but succumbs to an ostentation that exists in its final product, making this a hallmark for director Baz Lurhmann’s career. I appreciate him, in an odd way, for injecting a very strange version of romance in his films, one that, in Moulin Rouge!, is wonderfully cynical and melancholy. In almost all of his work, his maximalism overshadows some of the most interesting aspects of the films (the sole exception being Strictly Ballroom, his first feature): the post-modern comments on capitalism in William Shakespeare’s Romeo+ Juliet, the inherent frivolity of “freedom, beauty, truth, and love” in Moulin Rouge!, and the hollow decadence of the parties in The Great Gatsby. But everything...

Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation wins every film category but two at the annual Australian awards ceremony.
The big budget Us-financed jazz age extravaganza The Great Gatsby won every film category but two at the annual Aacta (Australian Academy of Cinema and Television) Awards this evening Australian time in Sydney.
This included the best film gong, which goes to Australian producers Baz Luhrmann, Catherine Martin and Catherine Knapman and their Us counterparts Douglas Wick and Lucy Fisher.
Luhrmann also scored best director and, with his high school friend and regular collaborator Craig Pearce, best adapted screenplay.
The only award The Great Gatsby could have won but didn’t was for best actress: that instead went to Rose Byrne for her small part — all the actors had small roles overall — in the bold anthology film The Turning, adapted from a book of short stories by popular novelist Tim Winton.

“I want to write something new, something extraordinary and beautiful and simple and intricately patterned.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald
From the uniquely imaginative mind of writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann comes the new big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby. In his adaptation, the filmmaker combines his distinctive visual, sonic, and storytelling styles in 3 Dimensions, weaving a Jazz Age cocktail faithful to Fitzgerald’s text and relevant to now. Leonardo DiCaprio stars in the title role.
In theaters on May 10th, “The Great Gatsby” follows would-be writer Nick Carraway as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz, bootleg kings, and sky-rocketing stocks. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby, and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy, and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan.

If you listen to the show, you know that I’m nervous about Baz Luhrmann’s upcoming effort, The Great Gatsby. I’m unconvinced that Leo can pull of Gatsby, if I’m being honest, but more importantly, Luhrmann’s bent toward dropping stories into the same formula doesn’t seem in line with the story.
At any rate, it seems like some things are being managed well enough, if we just look at the images. I’ll give them Carey Mulligan though, she could be a good fit.
Will you be in line for this one on opening day?

In his adaptation, the filmmaker combines his distinctive visual, sonic, and storytelling styles in 3 Dimensions, weaving a Jazz Age cocktail faithful to Fitzgerald’s text and relevant to now.

On the heels of the announcement that director Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby will open the Cannes Film Festival on May 15th, comes official word that Grammy Award-winning musical artist Shawn “Jay Z” Carter has collaborated on the film and is serving as Executive Producer to bring the modern “Jazz Age” energy of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s original text to the big screen, procuring, performing, producing and arranging for a soundtrack featuring some of the world’s top musical artists.
Jay Z’s contributions, woven amongst a score by long-time Luhrmann collaborator, composer Craig Armstrong, drive Gatsby’s champagne-infused dance floors, rumble in New York’s illegal speakeasies, and foreshadow the tragedy behind Gatsby’s “extraordinary gift for hope.” To articulate the film’s “1920s-Meets-Now” sound, Jay Z also comes to “The Great Gatsby” soundtrack as a performer and contributor of original music.

From the uniquely imaginative mind of writer/producer/director Baz Luhrmann come the brand new trailers for The Great Gatsby. The filmmaker created his own distinctive visual interpretation of the classic story, bringing the period to life in a way that has never been seen before, in a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role. While I love the Robert Redford/Mia Farrow 1974 version, I’m eager to see what Luhrmann does with the latest big screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald.s novel.
The Great Gatsby follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz, bootleg kings, and sky-rocketing stocks. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious,...

Baz Luhrmann’s anticipated adaptation of The Great Gatsby was originally set to come out this Christmas, but earlier in the summer, we heard that Warner Bros. had made the decision to push back the release until summer 2013.
The studio has now officially set that release date for 10th May, 2013 in the Us and Canada, which is thankfully a little earlier in the summer (given that, technically, May is still spring) than I was expecting. And really, with this film, the sooner the better.
Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, and Carey Mulligan star as the fantastic leads, supported by the excellent Isla Fisher, Joel Edgerton, Jason Clarke, Amitabh Bachchan, and Elizabeth Debicki.
