Trailer for MONSTER HOUSE online

With Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg as Executive Producers

The trailer for Columbia Pictures' MONSTER HOUSE is now online. It's an animated movie about three teens who discover that their neighbour's house is really a living, breathing, scary monster. Sounds fun doesn't it? Well it certainly looks it too.

It's quite an impressive cast, with voices provided by Steve Buscemi, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Napolean Dynamite's Jon Heder and Jason Lee. Enjoy!

Empire's Goblet of Fire Review Online

With the quote "you can’t help wishing the filmmakers had been bolder with the adaptation", and only 3 stars out of 5 glaring at us from the screen...

With all the hype about Potter 4 over the last few months, I was really hoping this film was going to blow everyone away - even non-Potter fans. It seems however, that we'll just have to pin our hopes on the 5th installment to accomplish that task, as Empire were most certainly not blown away:

... " It’s a shame (Director Mike Newell) is less successful in handling the necessary novel-to-screen compression " ... " the story editing goes through some distinctly choppy patches. It looks as if several scenes were filmed at greater length, surviving in quick snippets that are frequently unnecessary " ... " there’s too much contrasting material with which to contend " ...

But it's not all bad!

... " For the maturing Potter core audience this is well-developed, with teasing terrors and skin-crawling set-pieces as the dark Lord Voldemort rises again " ... " Mike Newell, as the first British director entrusted with a series entry, oversees plenty of spiffing special-effects action " ...

Two New Trailers to Check Out

Speilberg's MUNICH and Aronofsky's THE FOUNTAIN

MUNICH is the story of a Mossad agent (Eric Bana) who tracks Palestinian terrorists who assassinated Israeli athletes in the aftermath of the 1972 Munich Olympics.

THE FOUNTAIN (starring Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz) spans over one thousand years, and three parallel stories. "It's a story of love, death, spirituality, and the fragility of our existence in this world".

Both of these trailers are available in QuickTime High Definition.

Official Superman Returns Site Online

With Teaser Trailer to follow soon

The official Superman Returns website is now online as of yesterday (November 9th).

The site currently includes some information on the story, a comic book style interface for the video journals, photos and downloads (only buddy icons and wallpaper at the moment).

The teaser trailer is expected to be shown with Warner Bros' Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire so will probably be made available online once that gets released on November 18th.

Picture of Thomas Haden Church as Sandman

From Spider-Man 3

I reported in late September that Kirsten Dunst let slip who the new Spider-Man 3 villains are, and who's playing them. She could have been mis-leading us all of course, but the picture below backs up what she said. So will Topher Grace be Venom? Watch this space...

King Kong - A Look Inside

With fantastic new Kong footage!

I don't think I've ever wanted to watch a film so much in all my life. And just to add to my already huge NEED to watch King Kong, along comes an 'inside look' into the movie with spectacular new footage including Kong fighting Rex, Kong alone with Ann in deserted New York, and best of all... Kong on the Empire State Building!!!

I urge anyone that comes across this post to check out the above link. And I also urge anyone to check this blog on Thursday as a link to Access Hollywood's King Kong preview will be here too.
