Woody Allen’s Philosopher Fetish in Five Films

Woody Allen’s latest film, Irrational Man, is likely to elicit groans or worse from Allen’s detractors. The movie stars Joaquin Phoenix as Abe Lucas, a floundering philosophy professor for whom things get better after he enters into a relationship with a student, Jill Pollard (Emma Stone).

New Spectre Trailer, Images Reveals Bond’s Latest Mission

“Zero to sixty in 3.2 seconds, with a few little tricks up her sleeve,” says Q (Ben Whishaw), showing James his new car, a silver Aston Martin DB10. One of those tricks up “her” sleeve is a pair of flamethrowers in the rear exhaust pipes. We then cut to a thrilling race at night between James and his DB10 and the henchmen Mr. Hinx (Dave Bautista, Drax from Guardians of the Galaxy, whose size recalls Harold Sakata's Oddjob) in his Jaguar C-X75 and we're off.

Kristen Stewart & Jesse Eisenberg Kill it in New American Ultra Trailer

Jesse Eisenberg as a stoner? Sure, that’s easy enough to imagine.

We’re in. It's a major bonus that his love interest in American Ultra is played by Kristen Stewart,

“Welcome to NEVERLAND!” with the New Pan Trailer

The new trailer for Warner Bros.’s Pan tells a familiar and often told “story about a boy who would never grow up,” but does so with a whole new twist. This is not the story of the Peter Pan that we have all grown up with and cherished. Pan operates on the premise that to understand how the beloved story ends, we must explore its beginning – how “friends begin as enemies and enemies begin as friends.”
