Your New Netflix Obsession is Here—Bong Joon-Ho’s Okja

One of South Korea’s most ambitious auteurs has his own Netflix film, and you’re going to want to see it. Bong Joon-ho, the visionary behind Snowpiercer and The Host, is releasing Okja on the streaming service this June 28. Working once again with Tilda Swinton (she was hilarious and menacing in Snowpiercer as a cold-hearted, death-dealing bureaucrat) and an incredible cast that includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano, Giancarlo Esposito, and Lily Collins,...

Lefou Sings Gaston’s Praises in new Beauty and the Beast Clip

"My, what a guy, that Gaston!" sings poor Lefou (Josh Gad), a sidekick who goes through life singing the praises of a man who surely wouldn’t do the same for him. Gaston (Luke Evans) is Beauty and the Beast’s resident airhead hunk, a devilishly handsome man who wants to win Belle’s (Emma Watson) affections, but who clearly has half the heart of the ghastly Beast (Dan Stevens).

We are quickly approaching the March 17 premiere date for Bill Condon’s live-action take on Disney’s classic story (based on the 1991 animated film),...

Drax Disturbs in new Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 Trailer Tease

The new Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 trailer will arrive tonight on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, but if you’re itching for a look ahead of time, we’ve got you covered. Marvel has released a Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 trailer tease, while the new trailer will likely play in theaters for anyone going to see Logan, which opens this Thursday, March 2nd.

Chris Pratt (Jurassic World,...

Kurt Russell’s Elusive Role in Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 2

Despite its release in just a few short months, there is still very little known about Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2. We've published stories about what we've learned thus far, including the film's music, the Super Bowl spot and more. Even more secretive than the film itself is Kurt Russell’s role as Ego the Living Planet. So far, all we know is that Ego is the father of Star-Lord and is a sentient planet capable of taking human form...

How Sidney Hall Composer Created the Film’s Score Using Only a Computer

Logan Lerman (The Perks of Being a Wallflower) and Elle Fanning (Maleficent) star in Sundance selection Sidney Hall about a young novelist struggling with his own fame. Listen closely and it might surprise you that a single artist created the music. Composer Darren Morze wrote the film’s score and recorded it himself using instrument samples and his own audio creations on the computer...

Final Trailer for Kong: Skull Island is Most Bonkers Yet

There is something really weird and wonderful going on with Kong: Skull Island. The trailers and snippets we've seen thus far look like the kind of Kong movie we've been waiting for—big, bold, and best of all, strange. 

We've already written about the Godzilla/Kong connection in Skull Island (they'll be facing off in a Warner Bros. film in a few years). We've shared how the Kong in Jordan Vogt-Roberts'...

Watch the Beauty and the Beast Oscar Spot

Hey, did you catch the Oscars last night? 

If so, you will be forgiven for perhaps overlooking this great new spot for Beauty and the Beast that dropped during one of the show's commerical breaks. The live-action re-telling of the studio’s animated classic is coming in just a few weeks (March 17 to be exact), with Emma Watson and Dan Stevens in your title roles. The film is not only a lush,...

The Most Shocking Moment in Oscars History

It will be remembered as the most shocking moment in Oscars history. Before last night, you could credibly argue over which Oscars moment was the craziest. Was it the when Adrien Brody accepted his award for Best Actor by kissing presenter Halle Berry?  Or how about when Marlon Brando sent Native American civil rights activist Sacheen Littlefeather to the podium to reject the award on his behalf in 1973. No, the most stunning moment had to be when artist and gay rights activist ...

Fate of the Furious Drops new International Trailer

What we know thus far about The Fate of the Furious is pretty grim. The once proud, violently loyal Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) has abandoned his family (his family and his crew are one in the same) for a serious femme fatale by the name of Cipher (Charlize Theron). Part of the fun of the film will be to find out how in the hell she got Dom to switch sides. You have to assume she’s got leverage on him somehow,...

Stellar Reviews Suggest Logan‘s a Superhero Flick for the Ages

It turns out that director James Mangold and star Hugh Jackman have made the best X-Men spinoff ever, and one of the more gruesome, bold superhero films of all time. So far, Logan is sitting at a super fresh 96% rating on RottenTomatoes. Let's take a quick tour of some of the reviews:

USA Today's Brian Truitt writes: "Easily the best Wolverine outing, Logan is ...

New Kong: Skull Island Clips Showcase Most Ambitious Kong Film yet

Yesterday we discussed how Kong: Skull Island will introduce the largest Kong ever put on screen. Standing more than 100 feet tall, this Kong is more than four times the size of the incarnation we saw in Peter Jackson’s 2005 film, and rules as a god over an island with more beasts and monsters than we’ve seen in any previous Kong film. Skull Island follows a team of explorers, led by Colonel James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston) as they venture onto the primordial island to find a missing man and a mythical serum. ...

Watch the Nearly 5-Minute Alien: Covenant Prologue

If you’re one of the many people who loves FX’s new X-Men show Legion, you may have caught this fantastic, nearly five minute long prologue for Ridley Scott’s Alien: Covenant. Eschewing any alien frights (well, save for one tense moment), the prologue introduces you to the crew of the Covenant before they enter cryosleep. Their mission is to colonize a remote planet and form a new human settlement. As they laugh,...

Oscar Watch: Kubo Costume Designer Infuses Clothes with Ancient Japanese Tradition

She's been styling puppets for a decade in stop-motion classics like Corpse Bride,  Fantastic Mr. Fox and Coraline. Now, British émigré Deborah Cook has been nominated by the Costume Designers Guild for her intricately detailed contributions to Animation Feature Film Oscar contender Kubo and the Two Strings. The young hero's quest to become a Samurai warrior takes place in the distant past,...

Kong: Skull Island IMAX Featurette Delivers Biggest Kong of All-Time

One of the long-standing issues in a Godzilla versus Kong narrative is their size discrepancy. Judging on their most recent incarnations (Skull Island notwithstanding), Gareth Edwards Godzilla was roughly 350 feet tall, while Peter Jackson’s Kong was only a puny 25 feet fall. Naturally, Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures are more than aware about this, that’s likely why (or at least one of the reasons) that in Kong: Skull Island, which has already teased its connection to Godzilla and the upcoming battle between them,...
