New Trailer For KAMASUTRA 3D Promises A Cure For Cancer And A Larger Penis

Posted: 13 Jan 2014 02:00 PM PST

Okay, maybe it doesn't promise those things, but those are about the only two things it doesn't promise. The trailer spews lie after lie about Oscar consideration, and then boasts that it will open on 6,000 screens. Director Rupesh Paul and company may not give you a bigger dick, but they certainly have balls the size of Jupiter.Rupesh Paul's 3D erotic action romance "epic of all epics" has a new trailer that shows a little bit more ambition than the previously released boob-centric teaser we shared. In fact, we don't even get cleavage until the second half of this 3 minute monster. This newest trailer is the first to highlight any kind of dialogue, this time in English in an effort to grab the interest...

Twitchvision: Jason Gorber Talks AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY, LONE SURVIVOR And Woody

Posted: 13 Jan 2014 07:30 AM PST

Talking this week about John Wells' August: Osage County, a film with a tour-de-force cast but a (slightly) watered down take on the usual Tracey Letts madness. The box office winner this week was Peter "Battleship" Berg's Lone Survivor, a compelling and harrowing take on a true story that while certainly inflated in terms of "facts" still makes for a pretty interesting war picture. Finally, with the Golden Globes feting Wood Allen this year (and he of course promising not to show up) an all-too-brief shout out to this wonderful filmmaker....

Review: WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN Loses Focus In Tearful Finale

Posted: 13 Jan 2014 07:00 AM PST

The Lunar New Year (Seollal) holiday is just around the corner and that means that studios are looking to draw in large crowds, particular families, during one of the peak theatergoing periods of the year. Making a film that can appeal to everyone isn't child's play and oftentimes it means that studios will resort to mixing disparate elements to suit varying tastes. It's a gamble but one that Korean filmmakers have never shied away from. Such is the case with When a Man Loves a Woman, the new film from studio Next Entertainment World (also behind last year's breakout Seollal hit Miracle in Cell No. 7). Low-level thug Tae-il struts through streets and markets, shaking down shop owners for protection money for his small gang....
