Official Poster For AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY & Trailer

Here is the first offical poster for AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY . AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY opens in theaters December 25, 2013 AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY tells the dark, hilarious and deeply touching story of the stong-willed women of the Weston family, whose lives have diverged until a family crisis brings them back to the Midwest house they grew up in, and to the dysfunctional women who raised them. Tracy Lettts' Pulitzer Prize-winning play of the same name made its Broadway debut in December 2007 after premiering at Chicago's legendary Steppenwolf Theatre earlier that year. It continued with a successful international run and was the winner of five Tony Awards in 2008, including Best Play. AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY is directed by John Wills (THE COMPANY MEN) and features an all-star cast, including Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Ewan McGregor, Chris Cooper, Abigail Breslin, Benedict Cumberbatch, Juliette Lewis, Margo Martindale, Dermot Mulroney, Sam Shepard and Misty Upham .

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Comic-Con Recap

There's been a big presence at this year's Comic-Con for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 , but the press conference today with director Marc Webb, producers Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach and stars Andrew Garfield, Jamie Foxx and Dane DeHaan was the first real word on what the film has to offer. "The universe that we conceived of began before we started shooting the first movie," said Webb of the over-arching story, "but the primary focus was executing this movie as best we could. This is operatic. There's a hugeness of scale to this movie. The ensemble is extraordinary, but it's cohesive and direct, and there's a simple unifying theme at the heart of the film that I think will be impactful. But it's fun teasing other characters, and if you pay attention to this movie you'll see what we're setting up what might come next." He also discussed the film's take on new bad guy Electro, played by Jamie Foxx. "There are a lot of incarnat

The Showdown. Electro VS Spider-Man

With Comic-Con now mere days away, the various movies set to make an appearance at the event are getting a start on pimping what audiences can expect. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is just one of the projects hitting the cover of Entertainment Weekly’s latest issue, with a proper first look at Jamie Foxx as Electro. Looking like a living plasma globe, Foxx certainly comes across as effective, even if the real test will be how the makeup works on film. Chances are we’ll get to judge that with some footage at the Con, and maybe even an early trailer hitting the web. Director Marc Webb, meanwhile, seems happy to have the birth pangs out of the way and relishes the chance to focus on the future. “People aren’t scared. With the first one I felt it was important to retell that origin story,” he says. “But that was kind of brutal because people were so familiar with it. Now that the origin story is done? We’re off to the races. It’s incredibly liberating.” We’re hoping that means a les

The Amazing Spider-Man 3 & 4 Are In The Works

We hope Andrew Garfield didn’t have too many movie roles planned for the next five years or so, because Sony wants to keep him in the Spidey suit for a while yet. Displaying the typical confidence of big studios in keeping their franchises swinging, the company has just announced that The Amazing Spider-Man 3 will arrive on June 10, 2016 and the fourth on May 4, 2018. Yes, even though the second film – due to touch down here next year – isn’t finished and the reaction to the first wasn’t quite as positive as all involved likely hoped, nothing is stopping the superhero momentum. “ Spider-Man is our most important, most successful, and most beloved franchise, so we’re thrilled that we are in a position to lock in these prime release dates over the next five years,” said Sony marketing boss Jeff Blake in a statement. It’s also a sign of the studio wanting to wrangle those dates before anyone else can lock them down. So while we don’t yet know who will appear in the new movies, or

Chris Cooper Joins The Amazing Spider-Man 2

The actor joins an all-star cast of villains that includes Jamie Foxx and Paul Giamatti . Chris Cooper has signed on to play Norman Osborn in Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 for Columbia Pictures. The character of Osborn is pivotal in the franchise because he is the alter ego of the Green Goblin, which was played by Willem Dafoe in the original Spider-Man movies. It is unclear whether Cooper will make his villainous turn in this film or in a sequel. Osborn starts out as a mentor to the superhero before turning bad. The film stars Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone as the webslinger and his love interest.11 The screenplay is by Alex Kurtzman & Roberto Orci and Jeff Pinkner based on a previous draft by James Vanderbilt. The film will be produced by Avi Arad and Matt Tolmach. The sequel is set for release May 2, 2014. Please Leave A Comment- Source- THR

THE MUPPETS Blu-Ray Review By: Matt

THE MUPPETS Blu-Ray Review By: Matt The Muppets' release to Blu-ray is felt puppet heaven! First off, allow me to admit that I love the Muppets. This goes back to my earliest memories of Sesame Street, to The Muppet Show and Muppets Tonight. It’s this thing I have about insanely funny puppets and the ways they take the seemingly ordinary (staircases, for example) and turn it into something completely classic (“Upstairs, Downstairs”) which makes them so memorable. But the real joy was watching a crusty old man like my father watching the Muppets; his reaction made me realize that these guys knew what they were doing. Fast forward to 2004, when Disney bought the rights to the franchise (minus those Sesame Street characters that weren’t owned exclusively by creator Jim Henson). And while the result was a few funny telefilms (A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie), the final product always left us salivating for something on the big screen. We got our wish last year when The Mup

THE MUPPETS Wocka Wocka Blu-Ray Review

THE MUPPETS Wocka Wocka Value Pack Blu-Ray Review By: RAMA Looks like this Blu-ray has everything you need according to RAMA . Ah yes, the movie that made me feel like a kid again. It’s 2011’s ultimate nostalgic movie for a lot of us who are very familiar with these iconic characters. Who can forget animal, Miss Piggy, Kermit the Frog, Swedish Chef, Pepe, and so many more?! A billion thanks to Disney, director James Bobin, screenwriters Nicholas Stoller, Jason Segel, Bret McKenzie for bringing this gang back to us and in full force. And now, it’s time to light the lights, it’s time for THE MUPPETS to hit wocka-wocka value pack blu-ray… ‘Wocka-Wocka Value Pack,’ which contains the movie on Blu-ray high definition, DVD and Digital Copy (three discs), plus a download card which allows fans to own all the songs from the film’s hugely popular soundtrack. Disney’s “The Muppets” Blu-ray Combo Pack, with its flawless picture and pitch perfect sound, comes with a fantastic slate of bonu

THE MUPPETS Movie Review By: Rama

THE MUPPETS Movie Review By: Rama Is Rama still in love with The Muppets after all these years? Please make sure to follow him on Facebook and Twitter . THE MUPPETS makes me smile, makes me feel like a kid again. This film doesn’t have a single dull moment, I love every minute! Genius songwriter Bret McKenzie (Flight of the Conchords) should get nominated for his catchy original songs Man or Muppet and Life’s A Happy Song . I had my worries at first because the Forgetting Sarah Marshall team Jason Segel and Nicholas Stoller’s brand of humor are in the same R-rated raunchy ring as Judd Apatow’s but Segel and Stoller are very respectful to THE MUPPETS characters and this whole property. There’s no innuendo and it’s very family friendly. Folks of all ages will enjoy the humor. Neither Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzy, Gonzo nor Pepe are any different than the way remembered them growing up. And Walter is a fantastic latest addition to one of the most beloved gangs of all time… Wh

He kidnaps Buzz Lightyear in an attempt to take over his play-filled existence.”It’s like the Prince and the Pauper tale for toys,” says writer/director Angus MacLane. “Except one of them happens to be 3 inches tall.” The life-reversal forces the real Buzz Lightyear, voiced by Tim Allen, to deal with a support group for discarded, unloved fast-food toys. “These toys’ existence is about being really popular before the meal and then being totally forgotten about,” MacLane says. “And sometimes they don’t even get played with.” Though Buzz doesn’t fit into the group, he has trouble exiting. “There’

"The Town" Movie Review By: Windy City Gal

"The Town" Movie Review By: Windy City Gal / @rosenfie " The Town ", directed and co-written by Ben Affleck , is a film based on the novel " Prince of Thieves ." Starring Affleck, Jeremey Renner ("The Hurt Locker"), Slaine ("Gone Baby Gone") and Owen Burke as a group of bank robbers, "The Town" takes place in and around Boston, and follows the complications that arise when Affleck's character, Doug MacRay, falls for one of his hostages, Claire ( Rebecca Hall ). Deciding he wants to follow a different path than his life-imprisoned father, MacRay tries to leave his gang of thieves, only to be coerced into one last job, lest his girlfriend/former hostage be harmed. The last job, however, is no standard bank job. The foursome must steal the cash load from Fenway Park after a blockbuster night. What ensues is an all out gun fight between four smart crooks, the entire Boston Police Department and a slew of FBI agents.
