BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 Teaser Poster

Given that, besides possibly Jennifer Lawrence ’s face and Stanley Tucci’s gleaming teeth, the graphic imagery of golden Mockingjay birds and flames are the defining iconography of the Hunger Games films, the new poster for Mockingjay – Part 1 should not come as a surprise to anyone. Still, we must admit the smallest inkling of disappointment that the first teaser poster isn’t more distinctive, but then it’ll look good on a wall besides the others, which at this stage is really the point. Perhaps when the IMAX poster – should there be one – rolls around, things will once more get truly creative. Directed by Francis Lawrence and adapted by Danny Strong from Suzanne Collins' third novel, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 & 2 make up the third and fourth instalments of heroine Katniss Everdeen’s journey as she leads the districts of Panem in a rebellion against the tyrannical and corrupt Capitol. As the war that will determine the fate of Panem escalates, Katniss must de

New The Raid 2: Berandal Trailer.

Just as the New Year was dawning, we got the most recent trailer for The Raid 2: Berandal . Now here comes the one aimed at American audiences which possibly gives a little too much of the chaos away, though director Gareth Evans has promised that there’s so much stuffed into this film that we’re really just scratching the surface. Watch with caution anyway. This film is on our most anticipated films for 2014 . If you haven't seen the original film get off your ass and watch it. The Raid 2: Berandal picks up the story two hours after The Raid and sweeps Rama ( Iko Uwais ) into a much broader world of corruption and violence as he goes undercover in prison and infiltrates the ranks of a ruthless Jakarta crime syndicate. As you'll just have seen, it looks even more gloriously violent than its predecessor, if that's possible. Everything possible is turned into a weapon here as Evans expands the fights to even more ambitious levels. Watch the trailer after the Jump...
