Benicio del Toro is a great actor and I’m looking forward to seeing him as the tortured soul cursed by the, uh, https://superheromoviespot.com/ curse of the werewolf. It looks like they’ll be trying to do as much as they can with practical visual effects (although I’m sure there will be CGI as well) and that suits this f
It really sounds like Vaughn has put his all into Kick-Ass , keeping the source material firmly in mind. I am liking the sound of it – particularly of what he says about giving the movie a glossy Spider-Man feel while having all of the really gritty, really violent stuff happen on-screen. I’d love to get a look of some of those moviegoer’s faces that aren’t expecting such explicitn
“Aaron Johnson... mark my words, is going to be a huge movie star… He has that charisma where you believe every word he says. He can also stand in front of the camera and say nothing, but you still want to watch him. He’s fun. The actor I think he’ll become is Robert Downey, Jr. He’s very similar to h
That’s right: It seems Watchmen: Ultimate Collector’s Edition Blu-ray will go on sale around the holidays and only be available until the end of June, 2010! If that’s the case, then Watchmen fans better get it while it’s
So for some time now Watchmen director Zack Snyder has been saying there would be two versions of Watchmen released on DVD/Blu-ray: a directors cut, featuring the full-length version of Watchmen not shown in theaters, as well as an “ultimate edition” of the film, which would include the full-lentgh film interwoven with the animated Tales of the Black Freighter side-story, just like in the original graphic no
Also, nobody mentioned it in the Collider interview, but what about the Hollis Mason documentary Under The Hood ? It’s going to be featured on the Black Freighter DVD/Blu-ray but it looks like it’s not going to be spliced into the “ultimate cut” of Watchmen . That’s kind of a drag: seeing Under The Hood mixed in with the theatrical film was something I was kinda looking forward to–even more than the Black Freighter scene
Now that we’ve seen that , is there really any other reason to see Watchmen: The Director’s Cut ? To answer that question for yourself, take a look at some of the other deleted scenes you’ll be seeing by going he
When it seemed like they would not be able to get the project off the ground, Fox put Watchmen in turnaround to a number of studios over the years, none of which did anything with it. Ironically, the first studio to snatch up the rights when Fox made them available was – Warner Bros. They intended to put Joel Silver ( Lethal Weapon, Die Hard ) in charge as producer, Terry Gilliam ( 12 Monkeys ) as director and Sam Hamm (Tim Burton’s Batman ) as screenwri
“The film breaks a lot of taboos, and has certain elements that, if you’re a studio executive, might make you think, “Why in the hell would we make a film like this?” One thing I don’t think anyone got from the script was how humorous and fun it is…. They were like, “Is it a gangster film, is it a comedy? What is this? We don’t get it! We’re not making it!” So we thought “Fair enough. Screw you guys, we’re going to go off and make
In the interview with AICN , Vaughn spoke about various aspects of the movie including the look/style, the cast and even a possible sequel (with this type of movie that kind of talk is inevitable). Take a look at some of what Vaughn said about Kick-Ass :Here’s what Vaughn had to say about his first attempts to shop Kick-Ass around at various studios, and the numerous turn-downs he
Matthew Vaughn ( Layer Cake , Stardust ) recently spoke to Ain’t It Cool News about his upcoming adaptation of the ultra-violent teen superhero comic book, Kick-Ass . The first ever footage of the movie will be shown during Comic-Con this year, but Vaughn has let out some details about the movie a few weeks in adva
M. Night Shyamalan has been a victim of his own success (and his ego) with each of his films getting pretty much worse than the one that came before. However here he will be tackling something completely different from anything he has ever done before, and based on the one trailer we’ve seen so far it looks like it may turn out to be impressive. We’ll
Whoa, that “In-Movie Experience” sounds crazy futuristic. So the first version of the Watchmen DVD/Blu-ray (featuring the theatrical cut and the 3 hour 10 minute director’s cut) will hit stores in late July, around the time San Diego Comic Con kicks off. The second version of the DVD/Blu-ray (featuring the director’s cut of the film spliced with the Black Freighter scenes) will hit stores in the fall of 2009, date
You may not be aware of this, but the Watchmen project has been bouncing around Hollywood for over 20 years. Fox originally acquired the rights to the graphic novel back in 1987 and did intend to produce the film. Their plan was to have the original author, Alan Moore, write the screenplay. Unfortunately at the time they were not aware of Moore’s opinion regarding a film adaptation of his work – which was that he didn’t think it was suitable for a cinematic for
