Disney And Fox Merger About To Close With Deadpool Uncertainty

Ryan — Thu, 07 Dec 2017 18:53:10 +0000

The Disney and Fox deal is just about finalized. This means that classic comic book storylines may better reflect their inclusion of the X-Men and Fantastic Four but could change the dynamic of Fox’s most successful individual property. The R-rated “Deadpool” could potentially have some changes that would impact the integrity of the current franchise. Ryan Reynolds himself took to Twitter to pose the question.

Disney Buying Fox: A Vile Path To Cinematic Dictatorship?

Ryan — Wed, 08 Nov 2017 01:32:19 +0000

Disney is reportedly in talks with 20th Century Fox to absorb the studio. This means we are one step closer to having the X-Men unite with the Avengers and a credible Fantastic Four film. But while my fanboy side is rejoicing, my pragmatic alter ego is raising concerns over the ramifications of this venture.

New Han Solo Film in Need of New Directors

Eric — Wed, 21 Jun 2017 18:02:39 +0000

Directors Phil Lord & Christopher Miller have left their jobs as directors of the new Han Solo film. Disney has been kept us chock full of new Star Wars films. The idea was to make an anthology series to go along with the main saga. The next is a spin-off showing the origin of Han Solo. We've had photos and other news that seemed to indicate the production was moving along smoothly. Recently that all changed as it was announced halfway during the making of the film, they lost their directors. This isn't terribly unusual as directors and studios part ways all the time. However, usually it happens earlier in pre-production before cameras start rolling. The fact this is happening essentially at the midpoint of production is very surprising.

‘Beauty and the Beast’ Isn’t A Great Remake But Pretty Darn Close

Derek — Mon, 20 Mar 2017 23:05:14 +0000

The original “Beauty and the Beast” often has a special place in the hearts of Disney fans and considered by many to be the best piece of animation the studio has ever produced (including yours truly) and has been revered at a level that “Cinderella,” “The Jungle Book,” and “Sleeping Beauty” have never quite been able to achieve. Naturally, that leaves the “Beauty and the Beast” remake with some massive shoes to fill and while it doesn’t quite achieve that feat, they manage to come surprisingly close.

Pooya — Thu, 02 Mar 2017 14:24:00 +0000

Beauty and the Beast has released a new clip on Yahoo Movies, and it shows almost the entire cast in action… but is it more “P.C.” than the animated version? In the new clip we get a better look at Dan Stevens (“Downton Abbey”) as Beast just as he’s about to invite Belle (Emma Watson) […]

It’s been no secret Disney has been hard at work adapting their own classics. At this point keeping up with all of them is practically a full time job. Well among that list of properties in development has been ‘Winnie the Pooh’, which is now one big step closer to being made now that they’ve hired Marc Forster to direct.

Review: ‘Queen of Katwe’ Is A Heartwarming Surprise

Eric — Fri, 30 Sep 2016 04:47:06 +0000

"Queen of Katwe" came out of nowhere much like the main character and has completely impressed me and I think everyone in my screening. A film that I believe will inspire and impart a warm feeling to its audience in a very honest way. There isn't enough to say about the acting from the performers and I hope all the newcomers do well and if there's any doubt about the bigger names this film will certainly dispel that disbelief. “Queen of Katwe”makes all the right moves and just the right times.

Review: “Pete’s Dragon” Takes Flight But Doesn’t Soar

Eric — Fri, 12 Aug 2016 06:10:38 +0000

“Pete's Dragon” is not a bad film but also not a great film either. An almost completely different version to the original. Its slower pace is refreshing in a kids film, but may be a little too much for the kids in the audience. Enough of a likable energy permeates the film to make it engaging enough not to leave midpoint, but nothing terrible exciting to beheld by those who stick it out. I give it 3 out of 5 stars.

Review: ‘Alice Through the Looking Glass’ is Weird

Eric — Fri, 27 May 2016 04:57:34 +0000

On the one hand I do feel like this is more of a case of me not being the target demographic for this film, but on the other hand this movie is WEIRD. I will certainly say if you disliked the first film this one will probably not change anything for you if in fact you'll probably dislike it even more. For those who enjoyed the first film, they'll most likely overlook the flaws as they are many of the same flaws of the original, but even with that said this film doesn't succeed as much as the 2010 film. Still James Bobin shows he can go toe to toe with Burton in the visual department and Sasha Baron Cohen shines as Time. I give it 2.5 out of 5 stars.

Is Disney Paying Off Movie Critics For Good Reviews?

Eric — Tue, 17 May 2016 19:07:33 +0000

Disney is bribing film critics to give good reviews to Disney owned properties (like the Marvel Cinematic Universe aka MCU) while also trashing any films by their competitors aka DC. It is so hard to know where to start with this one.

Review: ‘The Jungle Book’ is Fun in a Family Setting

Ryan — Fri, 15 Apr 2016 06:36:04 +0000

"The Jungle Book" is a visual splendor with a story we know. The story may seem disjointed when compared to the original, but is still entertaining nonetheless. There are some discrepancies that are notable throughout but they are not apparent enough to deem this as a bad film.
