When I'm not sleeping, I'm doing something else that closely resembles sleep.
It always seems like there is always another species trying to take over the world. It’s usually some alien race from some distant galaxy but in Twentieth Century Fox’s Dawn of the Planet of the Apes it is home-grown apes. The genetically modified ones we saw get created in “Rise of the Planet of the…
With “21 Jump Street” being the surprise hit that it was, there could be no doubt a sequel would follow eventually. Today, Sony Pictures shows us what they have in mind with the first red-band trailer for 22 Jump Street. Slacker cops, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) have graduated to college!

A leaked trailer for Godzilla popped up a month or so ago and was promptly pulled. But before it was, it was abundantly clear that this Godzilla is not the same as the 1998 Roland Emmerich version.

Anderson, director of such bombastic outings like “Resident Evil: Retribution” and “The Three Musketeers” asked to borrow…
Women can be a force to be reckoned with too. In the second trailer for 300: Rise of an Empire that concept is driven home as on both sides of the coin women play a more prominent role. On the side of the Greeks, Queen Gorgo (Lena Headey) again rouses her countrymen to unite and…
So long as Peter Jackson continues to get motion capture right with his LOTR and Hobbit films, other directors will continue to try to employ it. Such is the case with Reinhard Klooss and his upcoming film, Tarzan. It is probably not the best choice to use it, but he nevertheless does, mixing in elements…
