By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 22, 2017 4:06 pm EST If you thought we knew about all of the DC Comics movies that were in the works over the next few years, think again. Warner Bros.

I ask because if you look at the man’s IMDB page it’s not like he’s lurking under the shadow of producer or really has any other projects in the hopper that he’s quietly toiling on. The resume literally ends after 2010. I’m not sure I’m OK with that....

VOTD: What Do Martin Scorsese’s Movie Cameos Reveal About The Filmmaker? By Ethan Anderton/March 30, 2017 6:30 am EST Much like Alfred Hitchcock, director Martin Scorsese likes to make cameos in the movies he makes.

By Jack Giroux/April 6, 2017 3:30 pm EST I think customers appreciate the opportunity to see films in a cinema where you get a full theatrical experience, and we want to create that opportunity for customers. And also … a lot of people who became filmmakers they want people to have the opportunity to see their film as intended in the full experience.

And it can seem overzealous to simply report on the fact that reshoots are happening — trust me, I’m as tired of these kind of stories as you are, especially when they act like this is something out of the ordinary. In many cases, they’re a good thing and help make a good movie great....

By Ethan Anderton/Sept. 8, 2016 5:16 pm EST This looks like exactly the kind of film I was hoping to see in Black Dahlia or Gangster Squad, but each of those films came up short.
