CROUCHING TIGER Sequel Running Out Of IMAX Screens In North America! And Elsewhere! Posted: 01 Oct 2014 04:30 PM PDT I do not know if this what you would call the final nail in the coffin but the last major chain in North America, AMC, has decided that they will not screen the sequel to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Tiger on their IMAX screens either. In a report from Deadline they said, "We license just the technology from IMAX," AMC says. "Only AMC and [its parent company] Wanda decide what programming plays in our respective theatres. No one has approached us to license this made-for-video sequel in the U.S. or China, so one must assume the screens IMAX committed are in science centers and aquariums."Ha. Science centers and aquariums. Indeed. Elsewhere in the World our sole cinematic overlords here in Canada, Cineplex Entertainment, and Cineworld, the top European... |
Posted: 01 Oct 2014 01:00 PM PDT "Yeah, I think I'm back," Keanu Reeves' mutters in this second trailer for John Wick. And while I'm not sure he's been gone, exactly, but the general sentiment about John Wick when it screened to an overwhelmingly positive response at Fantastic Fest - seriously, I don't think I know anybody who saw it there and didn't like it - was, "Hell yeah, he's back."He's back with a big case of guns, to be exact, and a hyper kinetic action film that hands the controls over to key members of Reeves' stunt team on the Matrix films and they're clearly doing what they do best. Check out the latest trailer below for a taste.... |
Toronto After Dark 2014: HOUSEBOUND, WYRMWOOD And LATE PHASES Among Second Wave Of TItles Posted: 01 Oct 2014 10:30 AM PDT With just over two weeks to go until the ninth annual Toronto After Dark Film Festival begins on October 16, it is time to reveal the final batch of films to make up this year's lineup. We will start here at home with a couple of titles from local lads Chad Archibald and Tal Zimmerman. Archibald's The Drownsman, his homage to classic psycho slasher flicks, will have its Toronto Premiere. Zimmerman is the subject of the documentary Why Horror? Filmmakers Nicolas Kleiman and Rob Lindsay follow horror fan Zimerman as he takes a look at the psychology of horror around the world in order to understand why we love to be scared. I believe this will be the Canadian premiere. Sticking close to home, from our neighbors... |
Melt Your Brain With Animated Short LESLEY THE PONY HAS AN A+ DAY Posted: 01 Oct 2014 10:00 AM PDT Depending on your relative state of mind you are soon to be blessing or cursing independent animator Christian Larrave for his short film Lesley The Pony Has An A+ Day. Very odd stuff, this, and very, very fun ... take a look below.... |
Hamburg Filmfest Review 2014: JAUJA Is A Mystic Paradise Of Fiction Posted: 01 Oct 2014 09:30 AM PDT If there were any remaining questions about the status of Lisandro Alonso as one of the most important and brave contemporary filmmakers, Jauja answers them all. With a star like Viggo Mortensen as a magnet for those who otherwise would not dare to look, Jauja is at the same time a change and an ongoing search for the Argentine filmmaker. It is a change insofar as Alonso plunges a little bit more into narrative and gives more room for dialogue than in his previous work. The film is set at the end of the 19th century in the Patagonian desert. We observe a group of soldiers and surveyors who are fighting or have fought a war against indigenous inhabitants in order to conquer the land.... |
Exclusive: Your First Look At The MEXICO BARBARO Horror Anthology Trailer Posted: 01 Oct 2014 09:00 AM PDT Hola, mis hermanos! We have the online premiere of the trailer for the Mexican horror anthology México Bárbaro! The trailer was first shown to an audience at a public conference during the Macabro International Horror Film Festival at the end of August. Raven Banner Entertainment has picked up world sales rights to the upcoming horror picture México Bárbaro. Eight of Mexico's hottest new genre directors unite to bring you tales of the most brutally shocking Mexican traditions and legends to life. Featuring different visions from across the country, directors Jorge Michel Grau, Aarón Soto, Edgar Nito, Gigi Saúl Guerrero, Isaac Ezbán, Ulises Guzmán, Laurette Flores and Lex Ortega put their own unique twist on these haunting stories. "México Bárbaro shows the world stories that form a part of our culture,... |
First Trailer For THE MULE Gets It Right Up In There Posted: 01 Oct 2014 08:30 AM PDT It all comes down to a battle of wills in The Mule, the Australian drug comedy written by and starring Leigh Whannell and Angus Sampson with Sampson (who also directs) in the title role as a drug mule with half a kilo of cocaine in his stomach caught by a cop (Hugo Weaving) who intends to simple wait him out until nature takes its course and our drug carrier, um, offloads his cargo. The solution, of course: No toilet time. The only question is whether the titular mule can wait out the seven days he's allowed to be detained for.Much loved on the festival circuit, The Mule is now gearing up for release in its native Australia and the first trailer is available below.... |
Destroy All Monsters: Expendable Equalizers Walk Among Tombstones Posted: 01 Oct 2014 08:01 AM PDT Is Hollywood's fascination with the older male asskicker a new thing? Its resurgence certainly seems to be. I know there were Death Wish sequels in the '80s; and before that, I know John Wayne kept shooting at people long past the age most people stop. Unforgiven took the form and turned it into meaningful criticism. Et cetera, et cetera. But this thing that's going on now, where Liam Neeson has a particular set of skills and/or Denzel Washington works at Home Depot but secretly kicks ass? It feels new. And it feels like it has something of a surly, selfish purpose. I mark the start of the operation at around 2007, or Live Free Or Die Hard (sometimes called Die Hard 4). We could also,... |
Hey Dallas! Win Tickets To See DEAD SNOW 2: RED VS. DEAD! Posted: 01 Oct 2014 07:00 AM PDT The only thing better than a zombie is, of course, a Nazi zombie movie, and the only thing better than a Nazi zombie movie is a Nazi zombie movie sequel. As the only sequel to a Nazi zombie movie that I've ever seen, Dead Snow 2: Red Vs. Dead is, therefore, easily my favorite of all time, and we've got tickets to an advance screening to give away to 10 lucky readers / residents in the vicinity of Dallas, Texas. Now, that's not to damn the movie with faint praise; Tommy Wirkola makes the transition to a sequel easy, picking up where the first one left off and filling in the few details that are needed for anyone who might have missed the original. (Although, really,... |
