No Country for Old Men: 10th Anniversary

10 years after the release of No Country for Old Men, I now feel like an old man. But, man, this movie still rocks! #NoCountryForOldMen #CoenBros

It’s been ten years since the Coen brothers’ No Country for Old Men premiered at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival. Upon it’s release, it received unanimous appraisal and accolade. It is the first movie from the directing siblings to be taken from a literary source in its entirety, in that of Pulitzer Prize winning author Cormac McCarthy. Admittedly, not entirely McCarthy’s best work, yet, it managed…

George Miller's Justice League

#JusticeLeague was going to be VERY different in the hands of George Miller. Check it out.

When you talk about movies that never happened, George Miller’s Justice League is one that is highly talked about. Pitched back in 2007 with a reported budget of $200+ million, Justice League Mortal was a hell of a lot closer to being fully realised than you might have thought. George Miller – the mastermind behind Mad Max and the equally violent, full-throttle movies Babe and Babe 2: Pig in the…

Batman: Who Did it Better?

From Adam West to Christian Bale, Tim Burton to Zack Snyder. Who did the Batman better? I have an opinion about that. Obviously. #Batman #TheDarkKnight #DC

The Batman; arguably DC’s most iconic character has taken many forms over the years. The Caped Crusader turns 80 in a couple of years and with the Justice League movie ready to hit our cinema screens in a matter of weeks, not to mention the Matt Reeves / Ben Affleck solo outing set for 2019, there are no signs of him slowing down just yet.

Ridley Scott thinks #Alien is done; We pick 5 directors to rejuvenate the franchise @alienanthology

Oh, Ridley. It’s been an interesting ride. But maybe, just maybe, it’s time to sever ties with the Alien series. In a year-end roundtable interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Ridley Scott expresses “I think the beast has almost run out, personally” going on to say “You’ve got to come in with something else. You’ve got to replace that. And so I was right…I was ahead of the game.” Where have we…

Was Solo Completely Reshot?

I've got a bad feeling about this. Solo the movie, not the drink. I like lemon. #StarWars #Solo #RonHoward

The drama behind the production of Solo: A Star Wars Story (the most creative title) has been no secret. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were famously outed by Kathleen Kennedy and replaced with Ron Howard. Lord and Miller apparently made a comedy film, deviating from the set script. Howard was brought in to get the film to “stay on target”. Since joining the project back in June, we expected…

Why are video game movies still a thing?

Somehow I don't think Uwe Boll would agree....

Video Game movies. The sentence alone brings shivers to even the most die-hard gamer. A pairing of the two seems like a match made in heaven, taking your favourite action filled video game and bringing it to the big screen. So why do they constantly suck? I used to get excited when they’d announced a film based on a video game – to be revisit franchises I’d fallen in love with , but time and time…
