Lola Versus is, by all means, a fairly standard “chick flick“ that is somewhat different due to the fact that it was made with the spirit of a quirky, indie comedy. It is about a woman who is dumped before her wedding and makes a lot of bad decisions on her way to restarting her romantic life successfully. It stars a number of actors who are all more recognizable for the art house theater crowd, in particular Greta Gerwig, who headlines the film. Having seen the film (Review), I would say that there is something to get out of it, as it was enjoyable and features a number of likable actors in it. Anyone can see for themselves soon enough, as Lola Versus arrives on Blu-ray in September and it is filled with special features. Continue reading ‘Lola Versus Blu-Ray This September’

Not to downplay today’s tragic events in Colorado, but it’s no secret that The Dark Knight Rises is my most anticipated movie of the decade. I know what you’re thinking. I’m a mind reader. You’re thinking that’s a pretty bold statement to make considering we are only 3 years into this current decade. But really? What else comes close to touching it? Avatar 2: Dancing With Wolves? Nah. The only thing I could think of is if they can ever pull off a ‘Justice League’ movie and not have it be an utter abomination of the senses. But I digress because we are here today to talk all things The Dark Knight Rises, in particular as they relate to the young British actress India Wadsworth who plays the daughter of the Warlord? I put a question mark there because a few days ago your guess was as good as mine when it comes to who that character refers to, but I guess you will all be finding out very soon so no worries.

Back in 2000, director Christopher Nolan was just starting to build acclaim with his second feature film, Memento. Twelve years later, he has now directed his third film in an ambitious Batman franchise, which happens to also be one of the most anticipated films of all time. The Dark Knight is admittedly a tough act to follow and despite sky high expectations, I was not really expecting The Dark Knight Rises to surpass what I consider the best Batman film of all time. Putting that thought aside, The Dark Knight Rises still managed to be a rousing and emotional spectacle that puts a fine cap on Nolan’s Batman trilogy. Wherever people end up in regards to this film, I am just pleased that the Caped Crusader was able to go out in heroic fashion. Continue reading ‘‘The Dark Knight Rises’ And Batman Ends’

When Christopher Nolan rebooted the Batman franchise with Batman Begins, I was ecstatic to see the Batman I had always imagined from the comic books come to life. Then came The Dark Knight which in my book was utter perfection in every way possible. At now sadly, we’ve come to the end of this amazing Batman trilogy with The Dark Knight Rises which is damn good but it doesn’t reach the same heights as The Dark Knight, even though it is without a doubt the biggest and most ambitious of the three. The Dark Knight Rises provides some old-school grand spectacle which looks fantastic on an IMAX screen and serves as a fitting end to the trilogy. Previous cast members Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, and Gary Oldman return along with newcomers Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Matthew Modine, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt to bring this trilogy to an exciting and moving end.

I have been a long time supporter of Chillerama actor ever since I met him at Comic-Con last year. Not only is he a really cool guy, performer and actor, but he’s also quite the humanitarian who is always willing to help the world any way he can. You got to admire that quality in an up and coming star. I recently followed up with Anton after learning about his newest project called ALEXUS that’s currently on Kickstarter. I wanted to find out everything I could about what he’s developing and asked him if he would’t mind sharing it with our readers. Check out the full press release and videos on ALEXUS below and head on over to Anton’s Kickstarter page and find out how you can personally get involved in the making movie magic too.

You can ask anyone that knows me…go ahead…that very little in this life brings me more joy than my anticipation of the dramatic conclusion to Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight franchise. That’s right. If you are reading this, then somehow I survived and made it through unscathed because the only thing I have had consistently cared about and had on the brain as of late (well not the only thing…lol) has been Tuesday evening’s press screening to the epic finale to the Nolan gangster/crime/superhero saga, boldly titled The Dark Knight Rises. There is no word that accurately describe the level of excitement I had going into the empty theater on Tuesday, nor is there now to describe the exasperate level of satisfaction I possess within as I pound this review out on the Macbook Pro, my weapon of choice. And now…without further ado…I present you The Dark Knight Rises, my most anticipated film of the decade. Yep. You read that right. The decade!

Along with being able to attend the world premiere screening of Starship Troopers: Invasion at Comic Con, I was also very excited to have the opportunity to interview Johnny Rico himself, Casper Van Dien, along with executive producer and screenwriter for the original Starship Troopers, Ed Neumeier, director Shinji Aramaki (Appleseed, Halo Legends), and producer Joseph Chou. It helps that I am a big fan of the original film and found a lot to like about this all-new CGI Animated feature, with its dynamic visual presentation, slick action sequences, and solid handling on expanding the Starship Troopers universe. Coming at the end of a long week, this was a fun one-on-four interview, which was shot on video no less, so be prepared to hear me (offscreen) do my best to talk to these guys about this exciting new feature. Continue on to watch this interview. Continue reading ‘Comic Con 2012: Starship Troopers: Invasion – Video Interview’
