A Mediocre Biblical Film | Review of ‘Exodus: Gods and Kings’

By: Cynthia Ayala

Egyptian Princes Moses (Christian Bale) and Ramses (Joel Edgerton) are raised together as brothers. When Ramses becomes pharaoh, Moses is his most-trusted adviser.

Not only did their collaboration lead to the actress’ second Oscar nomination in the Best Actress category, she also recently signed on to appear in Russell’s next film about the famous Abscam sting, formerly known as American Bullshit. But while that movie is still … Continue reading Jennifer Lawrence And David O. Russell Reteaming For The Ends Of The Earth

Ben Affleck Was Asked To Play Batman In The Justice League Movie?

By:  Sean O’Connell The Justice League movie might never graduate beyond the rumor stage. The last bit of news we reported about the potential JLA movie was pretty bad (more on that in a second). But when the rumors are as tantalizing as the one that recently dropped, you understand why this project potentially works better as fanboy wishes and dreams than as an actual movie that probably won’t live … Continue reading Ben Affleck Was Asked To Play Batman In The Justice League Movie?

By:  Dave Lewis Could Joseph Gordon-Levitt possibly go from playing a potential future superhero in “The Dark Knight Rises” to playing a full-fledged one in Warner Bros.‘ long-in-the-works “Justice League“? While making the press rounds for his upcoming film “Lincoln,” HitFix‘s Gregory Ellwood asked Gordon-Levitt whether he’d be interested in joining the superhero group if Warner Bros. were to ask him to. “You never know,” he responded. “If the script inspires … Continue reading Joseph Gordon-Levitt would ‘consider’ joining ‘Justice League’ if asked

Batman And Catwoman Featured On The Cover Of The New Entertainment Weekly

I may have spoken a little too soon about the Dark Knight Rises drought. A few hours ago a new piece of promo art featuring Anne Hathaway as Catwoman popped online and in my write-up I noted that we haven’t seen any footage from the upcoming Batman film since December. I made a guess that they were waiting until after The Avengers came out to … Continue reading Batman And Catwoman Featured On The Cover Of The New Entertainment Weekly

Does The Dark Knight Rises Trailer Include A Hint About Robin?

In the grand scheme of things, Robin is a pretty stupid character to have in the Batman universe. The Dark Knight is interesting as a brooding loner who single-handedly works to protect Gotham City from the forces of evil and having the Boy Wonder present really screws all of that up. Hell, it even has a bad track record in the movie world. Say what … Continue reading Does The Dark Knight Rises Trailer Include A Hint About Robin?
