The Hobbit Opening Breaks Records – Surprised?!

It’s a reunion that everyone wants to attend. It may have been almost a decade since we last trekked into Middle Earth, but if the U.S box office figures are anything to go by, it will be a long while before the story becomes legend, legend becomes myth and those things that should not have been forgotten are lost (Galadriel in FOTR. Keep up people!) In short (no pun intended!) The Hobbit op...

The full length trailer for the upcoming Zack Snyder Superman movie MAN OF STEEL hit the internet world wide this morning and this one is a definite improvement over the previous teaser. From Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures comes “Man of Steel,” starring Henry Cavill (“Immortals,” TV’s “The Tudors”) in the role of Clark Kent/Superman, under th...

Amazing Spidey 2 Casting

There was never really any doubt that a) Sony were aiming to kick start a whole new series of films with ‘The Amazing Spiderman’, and b) that unless the first film was a financial disaster the sequels would happen.  The approximate $750 million in box office revenue worldwide from the Marc Webb directed film simply further cemented the entire project. So with the first film r...

A Sound Effect Legend: The Wilhelm Scream

  So I watch a lot of movies (duh), and I notice this utterly ridiculous scream sound effect that seems to appear in EVERY movie I watch: Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Beauty and the Beast – I mean this scream is everywhere. So are studios lazy? Do they all just pull from the same sound stock? Oh no my friend. This is a saga sixty years in the making. I’m ashamed to only just have...

More Tron?

Tron: Legacy released in late 2010 brought with it an impressive $200 million budget and production values on screen reflecting that level of investment. Despite high anticipation for the sequel which was released almost a whopping thirty years after the original, the film didn’t quite set the box office on fire though it did perform reasonably well bringing in approximately $400 million wor...
