Sony Reveals 2016 & 2017 Release Schedule. Two Bad Boys Sequels, Jumanji Reboot & More Announced

“Ghostbusters” has moved up one week to July 15, 2016

Sony Pictures has unveiled release dates for 16 films for the studio’s 2016 and 2017 slates, including not one but two “Bad Boys” sequels, a Christmas 2016 date for “Jumanji” and a one-year delay for “Uncharted,” which has moved to June 2017.

Paul Feig’s “Ghostbusters” has moved up one week to July 15, 2016 from July 22, 2016. Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig star in the film, which is expected to launch a new franchise for Sony. The big-budget film will now open against “Ice Age 5” and the Ryan Gosling-Emma Stone musical “La La Land,” leaving WB’s “King Arthur” as the only film slated for release on July 22, 2016.
Speaking of franchises, an adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Dark Tower” will bow on Jan. 13, 2017, and “Barbie” will strut her stuff on June 2, 2017.

The Chris Pratt-Jennifer Lawrence sci-fi romance “Passengers” will be waiting under the Christmas tree next year, with a holiday season release date of Dec. 21, 2016.

Genre sequels “Underworld 5” and “Resident Evil 6” will hit theaters on Oct. 21, 2016 and Jan. 27, 2017, respectively. Meanwhile, the zombie movie “Patient Zero” will infect audiences on Sept. 2, 2016.

While Sony believes that “Patient Zero” and “Uncharted” have franchise potential, the studio is also betting on daring original films such as Edgar Wright’s “Baby Driver” on March 17, 2017 and Jodie Foster’s “Money Monster,” starring George Clooney and Julia Roberts, on April 8, 2016.
Sony has already dated the next live-action “Spider-Man” movie for July 28, 2017 and Phil Lord and Christopher Miller’s animated “Spider-Man” film on July 20, 2018. Those films compliment Denzel Washington’s “The Equalizer 2” on Sept. 29, 2017; Tom Hanks’ “Inferno” on Oct. 14, 2016 and Ang Lee’s “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk” on Nov. 11, 2016.

The full list of films and their release dates added to the slate includes:

Money Monster – 4/8/16
The Shallows - 6/24/16
Ghostbusters - 7/15/16 (new date)
Patient Zero - 9/2/16

Movie Review: #Vacation

Vacation makes me want to take a STAY-cation. Review by Matt Cummings It's not too often that a movie makes me wish film never existed, yet her I am ready to give the newest Vacation all the hate it deserves. And hate on it I will. Grown-up Rusty (Ed Helms) is stuck in a dull marriage to Debbie (Christina Applegate), who's been forced year after year to spend vacation with her family at a cabin in Michigan.

It might surprise our readers to know that someone from our team actually considered walking out of Vacation , and we get to see these films for free. That's how bad our experience became as we sat mesmerized by its 99 minutes of ineptit...

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

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...
