Despicable Me Best Buy Cell Phone App

Universal And Best Buy Say You Can Be That Guy During The Movies Don't we all hate those Douche Bags that use their phones during the movies. Sometimes I just want to get up and give them the smack down but I hold it back and complain to whom never I am with. But during Despicable Me you can indeed be one of those Douche Bags and have you phone on during the film.  Here’s the deal, Best Buy’s movie mode app will text translate the minions’ dialogue, to your phone, during the film’s end credit. Best Buy promises its app “automatically dims the mobile screen, silences the ringer and discourages texting”… Please Leave A Comment-

Banshee To Be Introduced In Upcoming X-Men: First Class Film Caleb Landry Jones will play Banshee in 20th Century Fox's origins pic " X-Men: First Class ," marking the first time the mutant has been introduced to the bigscreen franchise. Banshee (Sean Cassidy) is a fictional character, a Marvel Comics superhero who operates as a member of the X-Men.

A former Interpol agent and NYPD officer, Banshee was always a decade older than most of the X-Men and had only a relatively short tenure as a full-time X-Man. He was, however, a mentor of the 1990s-era junior team Generation X. And in a second key casting, Nicholas Hoult will play Beast. James MacAvoy and Michael Fassben

Denzel Washington To Star In Safe House

Denzel Washington To Find A "Safe House" Denzel Washington is in negotiations to star in the Universal action thriller “ Safe House ,” written by David Guggenheim. Guggenheim’s original spy thriller was snatched up by Universal in a heated bidding environment back in February, and Washington’s name has recently been circulating as a go-to lead for the role of a dangerous prisoner being escorted through mencaing territory by a young CIA agent. “Snabba Cash” director Daniel Espinosa is helming. Scott Stuber is producing. The storyline follows the only surviving agent of an attack on a CIA safe house as he tries to get a lethal prisoner to a second safe house before being taken out by violent forces that want them both dead. "Safe House" would put Washington on familiar action ground, if on the bad-guy side of the dynamic that won him an Oscar for "Training Day" in 2001. Please Leave A Comment- Source- riskybusiness

Chris Evans Talks Captain America

Chris Evans Talks Captain America We've all seen the concept art of Chris Evans as Captain America and today we have some news about the costume and shield from the horses mouth. It’s an amazing costume. Given the fact that his costume is red, white and blue, and it’s tight, and it could be kind of flash and over the top – and given the fact that the movie takes place in the ‘40s and ‘50s – they’ve done a really good job of making it look really cool. There will be two Captain America outfits, one will be a show costume and the other is a battle ready costume. I think everyone that’s going to see it is going to say, 'Okay, well done. Well done. I think they got the costume right. The casting they completely ruined, but the costume they nailed! [In the Fantastic Four  suit] …you could move around quite well. This is a little more cumbersome. It doesn’t exactly breathe the way the Fantastic Four costume breathed, but it’s the way it should be. Any type of World War II

Jean Reno Has 22 Bullets

Jean Reno Has 22 Bullets Relegated to a very mixed bag of supporting roles in recent years ( Couples Retreat or Pink Panther 2 , anyone?), Jean Reno is back in a lead role in crime thriller 22 Bullets . To celebrate he's put on his best tough-guy face and armed himself to the teeth for the film's new quad poster. As the title and bullet-peppered promo indicate, 22 Bullets sees Reno on the receiving end of a serious number of shells as Marseille gangster Charly Matteï . Long retired to spend time with his family and, we hope, water his pot plant, Matteï is tracked down by rivals to a carpark in the old port and left him for dead, riddled with 22 bullets. Big mistake. The film is, after all, subtitled 'Revenge of the Professional' , a nod to León, a man with something of a track record in making people dead and is loosely based on the life of a man known to his friends as 'Mad Jacky' . And if that doesn't make a sensible gangster think twice, nothing wi

"Get Him to the Greek" Movie Review By Windy

"Get Him to the Greek" By Windy (aka @rosenfie ) " Get Him To The Greek ", directed by Nicholas Staller and starring Jonah Hill and Russell Brand is a spin-off from 2008's " Forgetting Sarah Marshall " by the same director. Though a spin-off, there's one immediate mis-step (or creative liberty). In "Marshall", Russell Brand's character, Aldous Snow, meets Jonah Hill's restaurant host character several times. In "Greek", the two apparently have never met. Aside from that one obvious change, "Greek" produces non-stop laughter from start to finish in the same manner as "The Hangover" - scenes that are so inappropriate you don't know if you should laugh or cover your eyes. John Hill plays Aaron Greene, a peon working for music producing mogul Sergio Roma, hilariously portrayed by Sean "P. Diddy" Combs . With a last-stitch effort to keep the the music company profitable, Greene sugg

Joss Whedon's Wonder Woman

Joss Whedon's Wonder Woman, What Could Have Been While we're all debating whether the makeover DC Comics gave Wonder Woman was a good idea or a bad idea, a Hollywood costume designer has just let us know what Joss Whedon's Wonder Woman would have looked like. Back in 2005, we all thought Whedon would end up tackling the Amazon for Warner Bros., but by 2007, he announced that "I'm no longer slated to make Wonder Woman.'' But at least these sketches exist to give us clues as to what we might have seen on the screen. Shawna Trpcic, who was the main costumer designer on Firefly, Angel, Dollhouse and other Whedon projects, shared her take on the Amazon over on Twitter .

Christian Bale To Take His" Last Photograph" Soon

Christian Bale To Take His" Last Photograph" Soon The "300" team of director Zack Snyder , screenwriter Kurt Johnstad and Hollywood Gang have reunited for " The Last Photograph ," a drama based on an original idea by Snyder. Story revolves around a photograph that becomes the catalyst for a journey two men undertake through war-torn Afghanistan. Now, Pajiba reports that Bale is stepping into one of the lead roles and there might be a change at the helm, with word that The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’s Niels Arden Oplev is a frontrunner to take over the megaphone. But that part is simply a rumour at this juncture, even if it does make for an exciting proposition. While the film is still loosely scheduled for 2013, we’re not holding our collective breath given its slow process so far. Still, Bale jumping aboard could give it a little more momentum… Johnstad will write the script as a potential directing vehicle for Snyder. Hollywood Gang's Gianni

The "Twilight" Saga: "Eclipse" Movie Review

The "Twilight" Saga: "Eclipse" Review by Windy (aka @rosenfie ) Authors Note: As stated in my "New Moon" review , I am a Twihard and this review is written from a Twihard perspective. Therefore, you already have an idea of where this is going... "Eclipse", the third film in The "Twilight" Saga franchise, is directed by David Slade ("30 Days of Night") and stars Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. The first two films in the series "Twilight" and "New Moon" were highly sought after by "Twilight" fans. The third installment, "Eclipse,' however, expands its reach into the male audience with its action sequences. This film is the best of the three for many reasons. The actors seem more at ease with their characters, the special effects are stronger (as would be expected with a bigger budget) and there's more action and story lines. In "New Moon",

Reboot: Fantastic Voyage By: Jonathan Cyfer

Reboot: Fantastic Voyage  By: Jonathan Cyfer If you have never heard of Fantastic Voyage it's probably because you aren't into vintage science fiction. Released in 1966, this is one of a long series of cold war thrillers pitting Americans and Soviets in a race against time to gain a technological advantage that could be used as a weapon. In this case, the weapon is miniaturization; the ability to shrink people and objects down to microscopic size. The plot goes thus. A Soviet scientist named Jan Benes defects and is smuggled out of the Soviet Union to America by a U.S Agent named Grant, heroically played by Stephen Boyd . On the way from the airport, Soviet agents make a desperate attempt to assassinate Benes by crashing a vehicle into the car transporting him. There's a subsequent gun fight but the Soviets are beaten back. Unfortunately, Benes is injured in the crash. There's a blood clot in his brain that has put him into a coma. It's inoperable through conve
