VOTD: ‘Kingsman: The Golden Circle’ VFX Breakdown Of The Briefcase Fight By Ethan Anderton/Dec. 29, 2017 6:00 am EST Though Kingsman: The Golden Circle may not have lived up to the quality of its predecessor, it was still a mostly satisfying sequel with some hard-hitting, kick-ass action sequences. And while there is some outstanding stunt work done on these kind of movies, there’s also an extensive amount of visual effects, especially when it comes to how Matthew Vaughn chooses to showcase the action in question....

Stranger Things Haunted House Walkthrough It’s hilarious to see how scared the Stranger Things cast get. Right off the bat Caleb McLaughlin falls after jumping back in fright, and he swears he’s not just putting on a show. Meanwhile, Gaten Matarazzo seems to be the least scared, though he does get caught off guard a few times. It’s Sadie Sink and Priah Ferguson who get the most easily scared, screaming, jumping and hiding behind one another, making for great amusement....

WTF Stuff: ‘Savage Horror’ Line Turns Horror Slasher Icons Into Killer Beefy Bros By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 23, 2018 6:00 am EST Do you remember the old Masters of the Universe action figures that gave the characters impossibly buff bodies for kids to play out epic fantasy fights on the living room floor? Well, those retro designs for action figures are being brought back for a new line of figures from Funko called Savage World....

‘A Series Of Unfortunate Events’ Opening Credits: Neil Patrick Harris Sings You Should All Just Look Away By Jack Giroux/Jan. 13, 2017 12:30 pm EST Count Olaf is a terrible actor. Him and his gang of funky villains, his theater troupe, aren’t going to win awards anytime soon. Olaf’s acting is fairly rotten, but thanks to the talents of Neil Patrick Harris, he has a slightly more tolerable singing voice. Harris sings the theme song in Netflix’s adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events....

‘Austin Found’ Trailer: Linda Cardellini And Craig Robinson Make Kidnapping Look Funny By Ben Pearson/May 23, 2017 6:30 am EST Kidnapping is normally no laughing matter, but in co-writer/director Will Raee’s upcoming comedy Austin Found, he’s gathered a stellar cast that he hopes will make you forget about real-world problems for a while and just watch a bunch of idiots try to get away with a small-town crime. With names like Linda Cardellini (Freaks and Geeks), Craig Robinson (The Office), Chris Parnell (Saturday Night Live), Matt Jones (Breaking Bad), Patrick Warburton (A Series of Unfortunate Events), and Kristen Schaal (The Last Man on Earth) on board, chances are pretty good that you’ll at least crack a smile seeing their antics play out on screen....

‘Beauty And The Beast’ Deleted Scene: Meet The Disturbing Prospect Of Monsieur Toilette By Ethan Anderton/June 3, 2017 12:00 pm EST Even for people who love Beauty and the Beast, one of the most disturbing parts of the movie is the fact that everyone in the Beast’s castle is subject to the curse placed upon the residence by the enchantress who was so rudely refused shelter by the arrogant prince. Aside from that, the curse itself raised the question as to whether every household item in the castle was indeed inhabited by a person....

‘Beauty And The Beast’ Honest Trailer: It’s What’s On The Inside Of Your Wallet That Counts By Ethan Anderton/June 15, 2017 5:00 am EST Back before Disney’s live-action remake of their 1992 animated adaptation Beauty and the Beast hit theaters, Honest Trailers delivered a mockery of the contemporary classic musical from the House of Mouse. But now that the updated version of Beauty and the Beast is available on home video, Honest Trailers has returned to give Emma Watson and Dan Stevens a hard time....

‘Beauty And The Beast’ TV Spots: Emma Watson Talks To A Hair Brush By Ethan Anderton/Jan. 1, 2017 12:00 pm EST The new year has just started, but we’re only a few months away from seeing one of the most anticipated movies of 2017 on the big screen. Disney is continuing their trend of remaking their animated classics with Beauty and the Beast this spring. We’ve already seen how loyal the new live-action adaptation is to the original animated take on the classic tale in the full theatrical trailer, and now we get to see some tidbits of new footage thanks to a couple of TV spots....

By Angie Han/Jan. 24, 2017 11:00 am EST It’s the summer of 1983 and somewhere in Northern Italy, 17-year-old Elio (Chalamet) is spending the season as he always does: in his family’s grand Italian villa, swimming and reading and hanging out with his local friends. Each year, his professor father (Michael Stuhlbarg) invites a graduate student to stay at the villa and assist him in his work. This year, he has chosen Oliver (Hammer), an impossibly handsome and irresistibly charming American scholar....

‘Don’t Breathe’ Red Band Trailer: These Kids Really F**ked Up By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 11, 2016 10:00 am EST Last month brought the horror thriller Lights Out to theaters, and plenty were terrified by the dark all over again. Now darkness looks to be even more terrifying in the forthcoming horror thriller Don’t Breathe. The film from Evil Dead remake director Fede Alvarez horrified audiences at the South by Southwest film festival earlier this year, and now it’s coming to theaters in just over a couple weeks....

‘Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2’ TV Spot: Come A Little Bit Closer To The Cosmic Action By Ethan Anderton/March 14, 2017 12:00 pm EST Following a brand new clip that debuted over the weekend, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is starting their TV marketing campaign a bit early, probably to get in front of all the eyes glued to NCAA’s March Madness. A new Guardians of the Galaxy 2 TV spot shows off some funny new footage, as well as a new song that hasn’t been used in any of the previous trailers....

‘Into The Inferno’ Trailer: Werner Herzog Takes You On A Worldwide Volcano Tour By Jacob Hall/Oct. 17, 2016 10:00 am EST There are days where Werner Herzog threatens to become a meme, a joke thrown around by people who find his unique presence and offbeat/nihilistic worldview intoxicating and amusing. And then the man turns around and releases another movie and reminds you that he is one of the great artists of the past century or so, a monumental figure whose work makes every single imitation and joke look pale in comparison....

‘It: Chapter 2’ Creeps Forward With Writer Gary Dauberman By Ben Pearson/Sept. 7, 2017 11:30 am EST Warner Bros. and New Line know they have a hit on their hands with It, Andy Muschietti’s terrific adaptation of Stephen King’s classic horror novel. Splitting the dense book into two films – one that follows “The Losers’ Club” protagonists as children, and one that catches up with them as adults nearly thirty years later – was a bold move that required a lot of confidence that the first movie would be good enough to justify the sequel....

‘Murder On The Orient Express’ Trailer: Kenneth Branagh And His Mustache Will Solve A Mystery By Jacob Hall/Sept. 21, 2017 6:12 am EST And now, the second Murder on the Orient Express trailer is here to redeem that first trailer. Hopefully. Strip away the goofy pop soundtrack and you’re left with a movie that looks to be catering to an underserved market: grown-ass adults who like movies about adults doing things that don’t involve sky portals and/or aliens....

‘Showgirls’ Honest Trailer: That Movie You Used To Watch On Mute As A Kid By Ethan Anderton/Feb. 9, 2018 6:00 am EST This weekend brings Fifty Shades Freed to theaters, ending the poorly arousing erotic trilogy of films that began as Twilight fan fiction years ago. But over 20 years ago, there was another movie that was all the rage in Hollywood that failed to turn anyone on, and it was called Showgirls....

‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ Is The Title Of The ‘Homecoming’ Sequel, And We Already Know Why By Ethan Anderton/June 23, 2018 7:18 pm EST Any fan who closely follows the development and marketing of Marvel Studios movies knows that Spider-Man: Homecoming star Tom Holland has a real problem with spoilers. The actor is so notorious for letting information slip that Benedict Cumberbatch has even made a habit out of stopping him from giving the game away....

‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ TV Spot: Darkness Rises With New Footage And Dialogue By Ethan Anderton/Nov. 1, 2017 7:38 pm EST We’re just a month and a half away from Star Wars: The Last Jedi hitting theaters. Though the last theatrical trailer gave us plenty of new footage and dialogue to sink our teeth into, we’re starting to get more thanks to the TV spot portion of Disney and Lucasfilm’s marketing campaign....

‘Thank You For Your Service’ Trailer: Miles Teller Adapts To Life After War By Ethan Anderton/June 20, 2017 7:00 am EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

‘The Alienist’ Trailer: Daniel Brühl Finally Gets To Play A Hero Alongside Dakota Fanning, Luke Evans By Hoai-Tran Bui/Oct. 16, 2017 1:30 pm EST After years of playing Nazis and superhero villains, Daniel Brühl has finally landed a role that every young male protagonist can aspire to: the gifted criminal profiler. But this time, it’s in the 19th century! The Alienist looks like the detective procedural got a gaslamp-lit makeover, with stars Brühl, Luke Evans, and Dakota Fanning teaming up to work as early criminal profilers in 1896, attempting to get into the mind of one of New York City’s first serial killers before they hunt him down....
