Friday The 13th The Reboot Coming In 2015

By
Reboots, eh? They're like buses. If you miss one, another usually follows within six years. The metaphorical bus in this analogy is Paramount's freshly re-rebooted Friday The 13th, which, after a 72 month interlude, will be returning to the big screen in a new guise. It now has a release date scheduled for Friday March 13, 2015 - as predicted here back in June.

The new Friday The 13th has emerged from a legal battle for the ages. Warner Bros., which owned the rights, ceded them to Paramount in exchange for a piece of the action on Christopher Nolan's Interstellar. Nolan's New Line had left Warner Bros. after a profitable partnership and decamped to Paramount. Exhibitor Relations tweeted news of the release date.

So what does this mean for Jason and his trusty hockey mask? There's no word on plot or casting yet, but Damian Shannon and Mark Swift (Freddy Vs. Jason) have written a "great - better than the first" screenplay. There's also been talk of 3D, whispers of a found footage treatment, and even hints that Jason would be swinging the machete in snowy climes.

Marcus Nispel oversaw Jason's return to the screen for Platinum Dunes in 2009, a moderately successful affair that hacked and slashed its way to $91m in worldwide grosses. The business model for low-budget horror - make 'em cheap, watch the cash roll in - has already enhanced the Paramount balance sheet to the tune of one ginormously popular Paranormal Activity franchise, so this should fit right in.

Friday The 13th hits our screens on March 13, 2015.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

By Matt Cummings
The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
