Zack Snyder Teases Aquaman Footage From Justice League
In cased you missed it, a week ago director Zack Snyder teased some footage of Aquaman (Jason Momoa) from Justice League, as a little reverse birthday gift he delivered to fans. The shot is brief but beautiful, showing the superhero in his natural element.

How the Kong: Skull Island Cinematographer Channeled Apocalypse Now
From the minute cinematographer Larry Fong walked into Jordan Vogt-Roberts' office to discuss Kong: Skull Island, it became clear that the director wanted to make more than a by-the-numbers monster movie. "The walls in Jordan's office were filled with stills from Apocalypse Now," recalls Fong, citing Francis Ford Coppola's Vietnam War masterpiece. "We were both interested in capturing this kind of classic '70s look, rather than just taking all our references from other monster movies...

Death Haunts new Extended Life Clip
Director Daniel Espinosa’s sci-fi thriller Life was written by Deadpool scribes Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who told us one of their primary sources of inspiration was Ridley Scott’s Alien. This is a long way of saying there will clearly be plenty of death in Life, as this extended clip teases.
The concept is intriguing: Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds, and Rebecca Ferguson are a few of the scientists aboard the International Space Station who find the discovery of a lifetime—life on Mars...
Tupac Returns in All Eyez on Me Trailer
The likeness between actor Demetrius Shipp Jr. and the late Tupac Shakur is so uncanny, it could be the only thing you focus on while watching the new trailer for the Tupac biopic All Eyez On Me. That would be a mistake. Benny Bloom’s film, which is set to open on June 16, 2017, has a chance to do for Tupac what Straight Outta Compton did for NWA.

It was heartening news when we heard that The Walking Dead‘s tough-as-nails Sonequa Martin-Green was going to be playing the lieutenant commander of the U.S.S. Discovery in Star Trek: Discovery. The show’s cast just added another fantastic actor, the great Jason Isaacs, who was so convincingly scary in Netflix’s surprise hit The OA, also a veteran of the Harry Potter franchise.

Strong Reviews Suggest Kong: Skull Island a Smashing Good Time
We’ve been feeling good about Kong: Skull Island ever since the first teasers and trailers started rolling in. A great ensemble cast set on a rococo primordial island with the largest Kong ever committed to screen? Yeah, we were sold.

This Alien: Covenant Red Band Trailer is Incredibly Intense
If the first Alien: Covenant trailer was described as “promising” and “terrifying,” what’s left to say about the second one?
Referred to as the film’s “red band” trailer for the red MPAA ratings graphic at the beginning, the film’s second trailer was approved to be shown only before R and NC-17-rated films. As a result, we’re now able to see a bit more of the intriguing horrors of the Alien franchise that have only improved with the advancement of CGI and special effects...

See how They Built the Epic Brawl in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
We recently shared with you the incredible before-and-after video of how the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice VFX team built the film’s dark, layered look. While director Zack Snyder’s movie took some hits from critics, nearly all agreed that the film’s visual style was arresting. To help give Gotham and Metropolis this gritty, gorgeous look, the film needed more a lot of help. In this new video, we see how the post-production company MPC handled the film’s centerpiece sequence—the epic brawl between Batman and Superman,...

Kubo and the Two Strings Director Helming Bumblebee Spinoff
It's fitting that the very first Transformers spinoff goes to the series most lovable lunk, Bumblebee. Its also fitting considering Bumblebee was, in a sense, the very first Transformer to make contact with humans. It was Bumblebee who Sam Witwicky (Shia Lebeouf) unwittingly bought in the very first film, and ever since then, the black and yellow autobot has been the most loyal protector of the human race, based largely off his love for Sam. Now, the Bumblebee spinoff has snagged director Travis Knight,...
Sci-Fi at its Most Surreal: Watch the new Ghost in the Shell Spots
Yesterday we shared this awesome video of the incredible practical effects work that was done for Rupert Sanders' Ghost in the Shell. In order for Sanders and his team to live up to Mamoru Oshii’s beloved 1996 animated feature, they had to pull out all the stops. One of the aces up their sleeve was Weta Workshop, Peter Jackson’s now legendary effects house. Ghost in the Shell is sci-fi at its most surreal,...

Jack Sparrow’s Back in new Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell no Tales Trailer
We’ve got our first look at Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in quite some time, and the guy hardly ages (must be all that rum). Behold the first full trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales , which includes the first footage we’ve seen of Depp. The teaser and the Super Bowl spot conveniently left off the drunken pirate vamp, but now, we’ve got a boatload of Sparrow (pun intended), and, not just in his current form,...
