SandwichJohn's Top Ten Films Of 2010

Let's Agree To Disagree With the end of 2010 right around the corner, SandwichJohn thought why not come out with my first Top Ten list for the Films of 2010 . Now remember I haven't seen all the films that came out this year or most of the new releases. I have a family and a real life other than the site. So this is my Top Ten list. I'm for sure there are a few films you will disagree on and I haven't seen The Fighter, Black Swan or even True Grit , so they are not on my list. It makes life funner to stir shit up sometimes. With out further ado here is my list and enjoy the trailers. 10.  Knight & Day I know I am a Tom Cruise Homer, but I actually really enjoyed this movie. Knight and Day follows the adventures of Roy Miller (Tom Cruise), a spy on the run, and June Havens (Cameron Diaz), a car restorer. We see Miller watching Havens, and he bumps into her a couple of times as they go through security at Wichita Airport. Havens is making her way back hom

Mila Kunis Gets to Kick Ass In The Movie Book Of Eli I can Say on Thing Mila Kunis was great in the TV show " That '70s Show " But her role in the Movie " Max Payne " was torture for me. Just a Bad movie overall. I did enjoy her part in the Movie " Forgetting Sarah Marshall " .

And from what I saw this movie is going to be a HIT!! Early teaser trailers for the upcoming sci-fi action movie The Book of Eli show star Denzel Washington kicking post-apocalyptic butt, but co-star Mila Kunis revealed that her character gets her share of the action. "I get to flip a car," Kunis said in a group interview over the weekend in Beverly Hills, Calif., where she was promoting the comedy Extract. "I get to throw a grenade into a convoy of cars and explode them. I get to do other fun things that I

Mark Millar To Oversee Marvel Franchise For Fox

20th Century Fox has inked a deal with comics-world guru Mark Millar to serve as a creative consultant on the studio’s projects based on Marvel Comics properties . Millar wrote several lauded Marvel comic books such as The Ultimates, Civil War and Wolverine: Old Man Logan before moving on to found Millarworld (millarworld.tv), where he continues to develop existing film franchise titles Wanted and Kick-Ass as well as newer comic properties Nemesis -- which was being developed at Fox as a Tony Scott directing vehicle -- The Secret Service and Superior . “In addition to his groundbreaking Marvel work, Mark is simply one of the most original voices in comics today and will be an invaluable resource to us and to our filmmakers as we look for fresh opportunities to innovate within our shared Marvel universe," Fox production president Emma Watts said.

Matthew Vaughn Leaves X-Men: Days Of Future Past

Matthew Vaughn has decided not to direct the sequel to 20th Century Fox‘s hit spinoff X-Men: First Class . Ready for the next shocker? Atop the studio’s replacement short list is Bryan Singer, who launched the X-Men feature franchise with the first two superb films and who has been a guiding influence in this spinoff by writing the treatment and producing. If this works out, Singer and Vaughn would essentially be switching roles. Vaughn, who wrote the treatment for the sequel for X-Men: Days Of Future Past that was scripted by Simon Kinberg, would step back to produce the film with Kinberg and Lauren Shuler Donner. Vaughn will do another film for Fox, and I’m hearing it will be the drama Secret Service , an adaptation of the Mark Millar comic book series that Vaughn has been working on with the author. Fox already has the script for X-Men: Days Of Future Past , and set to return is Fox’s First Class cast that includes Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Jennifer Lawrence . F

KICK-ASS TV Spots For #MADMAX: FURY ROAD

Here are 3 new KICK-ASS TV Spots for MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Watch all the clips after the Jump... Looking about 22 per cent more badass than we’ve seen him before – yes, even as those twin ‘Bs’, Bane and Bronson – is Tom Hardy as the mythical four-wheeled warrior, Max Rockatansky. As with Mel Gibson’s forerunner, he’s a man fleeing his tragic past. His wife and child have been killed and all that’s left for him is a desolate land crawling in scum and villainy. And, being Mad Max, he’s going to have a red hot go at killing quite a lot of it. He finds himself caught up with an Imperator called Furiosa (Charlize Theron) and her crew, who are fleeing headlong from an even greater threat. And... well, carnage ensues. Co-starring with Hardy and Theron are Nicholas Hoult, Zoe Kravitz, Riley Keough, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and the big bad, Hugh Keays-Byrne. Please Leave A Comment-

Aaron Johnson Eyed For Godzilla

Legendary Pictures is eyeing Kick-Ass star Aaron-Taylor Johnson to star in Godzilla , the Gareth Edwards-directed reboot of the franchise based on the iconic Japanese reptile. I’m told that Johnson, who starred in the Oliver Stone-directed Savages and Anna Karenina and followed by reprising in Kick-Ass 2: Balls To The Wall is the frontrunner for the job. He won’t make a final decision on whether or not to take the offer until he sees the final polish that Frank Darabont is writing based on the Max Borenstein script. Legendary’s Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni are taking the creative lead on this project — they just put Mary Parent on after she became a producer of Pacific Rim — and Warner Bros is distributing everywhere except for Japan. There, rightsholders Toho will handle the release. While there has obviously been a legal dust-up in the producing ranks, the film is still on course to begin production in March, with the film dated for a May 16, 2014 release. If he takes the gig

Jeff Wadlow To Deliver X-Force Film

Jeff Wadlow , who is readying for the August 16 release of Kick-Ass 2 , has been tapped to write an adaptation of X-Force , an X-Men spin-off being developed by 20th Century Fox. The news comes on the heels of various blogs reporting today that the studio registered X-ForceMovie.com a few months ago. Longtime X-Men franchise producer Lauren Shuller Donner is producing X-Force. Wadlow is now writing the script with an eye to direct. X-Force was an early 1990s spin-off from Marvel Comics’ flagship Uncanny X-Men comics created by Rob Liefeld and its first issue set sales records when it sold five million copies. (The record was only surpassed when X-Men #1, drawn by Jim Lee, sold eight million issues.) The original line-up of the team was made up of several characters from the first Uncanny X-Men spin-off, The New Mutants, teens who had matured into young adults. But also among the line up was Cable, a militant leader from the future who is related to X-Men heroes Cyclops and

Soundtrack Review: 'Legends of Tomorrow: Season 1'

Like the series, Legends of Tomorrow: Season 1 Original Television Soundtrack sets a course for superhero time-traveling kick ass. Review by Matt Cummings CW's superhero shows have become a M-TH staple in my DVR. Whether it's the speed and quick wit of The Flash , the gritty Star City vigilantes of Arrow , or the newest arrival of Supergirl , CW has hit creative gold by assembling this team. Perhaps at the top of these was the surprise hit DC's Legends of Tomorrow , a time-traveling epic featuring several characters culled from Arrow and The Flash . The completely original series from Producer Greg Berlanti sported impressive special effects, more witty banter than three people can stand, and of course a solidly entertaining score from Composer Blake Neely. The bold and unapologetic Legends of Tomorrow: Season 1 Original Television Soundtrack arrives full of superhero kick ass and ready to take the throne as Neely's best so far. The time-traveling Capt

Movie Studios And Comic-Con

Movie Studios Build Hype With Comic-Con When the seventh annual San Diego Comic-Con took place in 1976, the gathering of a few thousand fans was just what its name implied: a convention about comic books. That year, however, Lucasfilm Ltd . set up a booth and held a slideshow presentation about a movie nearly a year away from release, " Star Wars ." More than 30 years later, the convention appears to be more and more a place where movie studios and television networks can follow in the footsteps of "Star Wars'" by giving hard-core fans an early look at upcoming releases. Sometimes, it's a very early look. Walt Disney Pictures came to Comic-Con in 2008 with test footage from what was then referred to as "TR2N," a sequel to the 1982 cult classic " Tron ," one of the first films to use computer-generated imagery. The special effects and appearance by Jeff Bridges, reprising his role in the original, made a big splash with the audienc
