#Akira Film May Still Be Alive

Warner Bros. executives Drew Crevello and Nik Mavinkurve will oversee the reconfigured project for the studio.

Movie Review: #Cinderella Gorgeous Sweeping Landscapes, A Generous Helping Of Bibbity Bobbity Boo

With plenty of gorgeous sweeping landscapes, a generous helping of bibbity bobbity boo, and a tightly corseted heroine, Cinderella makes her way to theaters as Disney's latest princess to get a live action adaptation. It stays very close to the original 1950's telling, not taking the generous liberties that last year's Maleficent did, but it still has plenty to inspire dreams and foot fetishes. After her father unexpectedly dies, young Ella ( Lily James ) finds herself at the mercy of her cruel stepmother ( Cate Blanchett ) and stepsisters, who reduce her to scullery maid. Despite her circumstances, she refuses to despair. An invitation to a palace ball gives Ella hope that she might reunite with the dashing stranger (Richard Madden) she met in the woods, but her stepmother prevents her from going. Help arrives in the form of a kindly beggar woman who has a magic touch for ordinary things. Director, Kenneth Branagh brings his picturesque landscapes and lo

The Lone Ranger Is A Disaster At The Box-Office

The mega-budget " The Lone Ranger " went down in a cloud of a dust in its box-office debut over the July 4 weekend, saddling the studio with a " John Carter "-sized disaster. Over the five-day holiday weekend, the masked rider will have brought in around $49 million . That's about $20 million under analysts' projections and nearly $90 million behind the total of the No. 1 movie, Universal and Illumination Entertainment's animated family film " Despicable Me 2 ." The Lone Ranger Review - Worse, the $29.4 million three-day Friday-Sunday total for the $225 million adaptation of the classic radio and TV show, with Armie Hammer as the title character and Johnny Depp as Tonto, was weaker than that of last year's bomb " John Carter ." That $250-million sci-fi adventure opened to $30.1 million, topped out at $73 million at the domestic box office and Disney wound up with a $200 million write down. It's hard to imagine

The Lone Ranger Review. Prove Critics Wrong, Or Does It Live Up To It's Troubled Production?

The Lone Ranger Review By: MattInRC The enjoyable, big western The Lone Ranger surprises in many ways. And that's a good thing. If you've not been following the troubled, off-again/on-again production of Disney's The Lone Ranger , here's a quick rundown: origin story with werewolves (no I'm not kidding) gets pulled by Mouse House after its creators can't guarantee the pricetag wouldn't stay below $250 million, then is suddenly resurrected once the monsters are removed. But, does Disney's decision to ditch the dogs represent a dodged bullet (no pun intended)? Luckily, the answer is yes: The Lone Ranger is fun and entertaining, even though it's too long. You know this story: John Reid ( Armie Hammer , J. Edgar) and a band of Texas Rangers are ambushed by the wanted felon Butch Cavandesh ( William Fichtner , The Dark Knight). The Indian Tonto ( Johnny Depp , POTC series) finds the bodies but soon realizes that John's contains t

New Lone Ranger Trailer. Starting To Have Faith In The Film

After watching this new trailer I have alittle more faith in the movie. From producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski , the filmmaking team behind the blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, comes Disney/Jerry Bruckheimer Films' The Lone Ranger , a thrilling adventure infused with action and humour, in which the famed masked hero is brought to life through new eyes. Native American spirit warrior Tonto ( Johnny Dep p) recounts the untold tales that transformed John Reid ( Armie Hammer ), a man of the law, a legend of justice -- taking the audience on a runaway train of epic surprises and humorous friction as the two unlikely heroes must learn to work together and fight against greed and corruption. The Lone Ranger also stars Tom Wilkinson, William Fichtner, Barry Pepper, James Badge Dale, Ruth Wilson and Helena Bonham Carter . Director Gore Verbinski said: "I have always been intrigued by characters who exist at times of monumental change.

DARK SHADOWS Movie Review By: Matt C

DARK SHADOWS Movie review By: Matt C Does  DARK SHADOWS  honor the trippy original, or cast further doubt on the Depp-Burton alliance? DARK SHADOWS  is a strange film to pin down, and that's usually a good thing for director Tim Burton (Batman). Over 10 films, he and actor Johnny Depp (Public Enemies) defined the genre of wacky with brilliant brush strokes, painting lush environments with memorable characters who defied convention. And while  DARK SHADOWS  contains its fair share of all the above, the film really exemplifies the "Jack of All, Master of None" mentality, something very un-Burton like. It doesn't know what it wants to be half the time, straddling between action, bizarre camp comedy, and watered-down horror, but doing none of them very well. Depp plays Barnabus Collins, an 18th Century vampire who is awakened in 1972 after being buried in an iron casket for enjoying the taste of human blood. Being a nightcrawler isn't really his fault:
