#Warcraft : The Beginning Official Poster

If there’s one thing Warcraft is known for in its virtual form, it’s expansion. So it somehow makes sense that the film based on the game is also undergoing a little escalating, at least in its title. The evidence is for all to see, as the newly-named Warcraft: The Beginning has launched a fresh poster. Moon and Source Code director Duncan Jones is putting the finishing touches to the film, which promises to show both sides of the story set in the seemingly peaceful realm of Azeroth, poised to descend into bitter war between man and orc when a portal opens between their two worlds. We’ll meet the likes of battle-hardened warrior Anduin Lothar ( Travis Fimmel ), the commander of the human forces and champion of his king, Llane Wrynn ( Dominic Cooper ). But as opposed to the usual faceless hordes of monsters attacking them, we’ll also check in with the Orcs, who arrive because they’re fleeing the destruction of their own home world, and are led by Durotan ( Toby Kebbell ).

Star Trek Series in Development at CBS

Boldly go back to television. By Brandon Wolfe Trekkies (or Trekkers if that’s the preferred nomenclature) will finally get their wish in 2017, when Star Trek finally returns to the small screen from whence it was birthed. Alex Kurtzman, who developed the rebooted film franchise along with Bob Orci, is developing a new series that will debut in January 2017 on CBS’ All Access digital distribution service “This new series will premiere to the national CBS audience, then boldly go where no first-run Star Trek series has gone before – directly to its millions of fans through CBS All Access,” said Marc DeBevoise, executive VP and general manager of CBS Digital Media. “We’ve experienced terrific growth for CBS All Access, expanding the service across affiliates and devices in a very short time.

TV Review: Ash vs. Evil Dead "El Jefe"

Off to a groovy start. Review by Brandon Wolfe You might not realize it from the cottage industry of comics and collectibles that have sprung up around him in recent years, but Ashley J. “Ash” Williams, the wiseacre-buffoon hero portrayed by cult legend Bruce Campbell in Sam Raimi’s hallowed Evil Dead trilogy, has been MIA for a whopping 22 years. Raimi has made countless overtures throughout that fallow period about developing a fourth film, but apart from a pointless, one-second cameo at the end of 2013’s Evil Dead remake, Ash has taken a long, seemingly permanent siesta. So when he makes his long-overdue first appearance at the beginning of Ash vs. Evil Dead , the television sequel to the films, gyrating like a goon to Deep Purple’s “Space Truckin’” as he cinches a girdle around his bloated midsection, it’s not only a welcome sight, but a soothing one. This is Ash precisely as we remember him from Army of Darkness . A bit heavier in the belly and grayer at the temples, but the

(EXCLUSIVE) #BoxOffice Report: #Burnt, #OurBrandIsCrisis Get Burned

October's new releases continue their disastrous run. Story by Matt Cummings Although the weather has begun its transition into Fall, someone has apparently forgotten to tell moviegoers that it's time to celebrate by seeing newer releases. This week's top 5 welcomed only one new film, while three others continued their 'dominance' in the absence of anything better. In fact, the top spots - The Martian ($10.7m), Goosebumps ($9.2m), and Bridge of Spies ($7.6m) - haven't changed their positions since last weekend. Add Hotel Transylvania 2 at No. 5, and the only newcomer to make a dent was Bradley Cooper's Burnt at $4.7m. But the bigger news continues to be Hollywood's inability to draw significant amounts of moviegoers to newer releases. How bad have October's releases fared? Just consider the following: seven major releases (those premiering on 2,000+ screens) had total openings of just $54.8m. That's only $500k over what T
