X-Men First Class Spoilers & Mistakes From The Film

Gotta start with if you haven't seen the film you might want to come back and read the post after you have seen it. There are major Spoilers in this post. 12 of them to be exact. Another thing is that my 9 year daughter pointed out some of these facts, She's a Nerd like her father. It amazes me that people have this much time on their hands to dissect a film from beginning to end. Every movie is going to have some sort of flaw. You have been Warned. Spoilers! 1. Hank McCoy transforms into his beast form in X-Men First Class . However, in X-Men 2 when Mystique meets the guard in the bar, Hank McCoy , without fur, is speaking on a live talk show on a TV in the background. 2. In this movie, Emma Frost is seen as an adult woman (roughly around the same age as Professor X and Magneto ). But the character is also in X-Men Origins: Wolverine , set years later when Professor X and Magneto are much older, but she is much younger. 3. When Xavier freezes Levene in the

Wolfman Reboot On The Way. Really Do We Need Another Film?

Moviehole is reporting that Universal were considering doing a sequel to the recent – god awful – ” The Wolfman ”, which featured Benicio del Toro as the sharp-clawed Talbot – that’s no longer the case. Michael Tabb’s script is being rewritten and reworked to be an original film – almost a reboot of the classic Universal monster movie series. If anything, this new film – they’ve yet to decide on a title though I hear “ Werewolf ” is popular -will share a link to the original George Waggner film (from 1941) rather than Joe Johnston’s ill-fated 2009 remake. As I said, the Universal project is currently undergoing a rewrite; it is likely headed before the cameras in the Fall. The studio is said to be talking to prospective directors over the next couple of weeks. Casting will begin shortly thereafter. The original 1941 film, starring Lon Chaney in the title role, told of a a practical man who returns to his homeland, is attacked by a creature of folklore, and infected with a horr

UFC Looking For A New Home In G4 Network

A source familiar with the situation said UFC has also talked to other networks ahead of the expiration of its current content deal with Viacom's Spike network . UFC also offers regular pay per view events. Talks are at an early stage, the person said. UFC and G4 officials declined comment. A deal for G4, which targets young men, would give UFC its own distribution outlet for its bouts. Comcast took control of NBCUniversal in late January. Please Leave A Comment- Source- THR

Poltergeist Remake Is On The Way

Recently freed from a crushing $4 billion debt, MGM’s new studio management in February told Hollywood’s talent agencies it was moving ahead with plans to reboot five movie franchises, including Steven Spielberg’s 1982 horror hit, Poltergeist . The word is  that the studio has offered Pulitzer-prize winning playwright cum screenwriter David Lindsay-Abaire ( Rabbit Hole ) the job of reimagining the paranormal classic. Lindsay-Abaire confirmed he’d been approached by MGM and offered the job, but emphasized that no deal had been reached and stressed that he was not yet even sure he wanted to take it. (Abaire’s latest play, Good People, starring Frances McDormand, just wrapped its limited engagement on Broadway a little over a week ago; both People and McDormand are nominated for Tony Awards.) It’s understandable of playwrights to be wary of big studios. But MGM’s new bosses — Spyglass Entertainment principals Roger Birnbaum and Gary Barber — are co-financiers who know something abou

Super 8 Movie Review By: SandwichJohn

Super 8 Movie Review By: SandwichJohn I gotta say that the movie did take me back to being a kid and watching E.T or Goonies for the first time. A group of kids on an adventure to find out the true about something. Super 8 has amazing visual effects, camera work, and the sound was just mind blowing. And I think that Elle Fanning and Joel Courtney will be getting a ton of movie offers after this film. This is going to be their break out film. With all the mystery surrounding the film , did it help or hurt the film? The box office will answer that next week. But I thought they did a great job teasing what was in the Air Force container. And I will not spoil that for you. From Writer- Director J.J. Abrams comes a film that will take you back to your childhood, with all the happiness of hanging out with friends, your fears, and sadness. Executive Producer Steven Spielberg definitively had an impact on the story telling and directing of this film. You can feel his touc
