*yawn* Right, I’ve been up since before 4am to watch this year’s Academy Awards ceremony live, and I still missed the first half hour (Thanks DSTV for getting the time wrong in your guide). Anyway, below are the full results from the ceremony, with winners marked in read. Don’t read any further if you have a resolve of steel and …

I have really not been all that excited to see Sacha Baron-Cohen’s latest farcical comedy, The Dictator. Well, until now that is. After indicating that he would be showing up for tonight’s Oscars in character as Admiral General Aladeen, the Academy responded by banning him. What, no love from the Academy for militant Islamic dictators, even fictitious ones? That’s about as …

The Golden Raspberries, more commonly known as The Razzies, have become an annual tradition since an LA publicist and his friends first threw an impromptu awards ceremony in 1981 to specifically “celebrate” the dumbest, laziest and all-round worst films that Hollywood shat out onto moviegoers the previous year. The Razzies – also known as the Anti-Oscars – are a tongue …

Welcome to The Extras! A daily dose of all the smaller movie related news, clips and just plain cool stuff that you might have missed!

It may be a two-dimensional film with three dimensional visuals currently, but that hasn’t stopped the first in the Star Wars prequel films from earning a respectable take at the box office, as the film is one of an illustrious few to have earned a spot in the billion dollar club of successful movies.

If the name of James Woods sounds familiar, then you’re probably remembering the veteran actor from all his classic film roles, a career that had been decidedl low profile lately. Heck, we saw more of James Woods on episodes of Family Guy than we did of him on the big screen, but it seems that the actor is getting ready …

It wouldn’t be a proper year for films if there wasn’t a new CGI picture in the works, and it looks like Dreamworks will once again be joining the release schedule next year for such projects, as new details on their upcoming family film, Turbo, have finally been revealed.

Can’t get enough of Sam Worthington wearing Greek period clothing and sandals? Then that first Wrath of the Titans trailer back in December last year probably did nothing for you. Good thing that there’s a slightly longer, more muthicaly beastie-filled trailer out right now, isn’t it? And it’s available after the jump.

Could it be that the answer to that eternal question about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s culinary activities is actually baklava? The professional wrestler turned sweaty action star is in talks to play the Greek demigod, Hercules, in director Brett Ratner’s film adaption of the Hercules: The Thracian Wars graphic novel.

It’s a weekend of serious stuff (well, for the most part) at South African moviehouses, with manly men doing stuff like picking up guns, and flaming chains, and going to war… against everyone from drug dealers to Germans to, uh, the Devil himself. Can’t you just smell the testosterone? Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance – Of today’s 4 major releases, …

The Hunger Games has had a really interesting marketing campaign, with a lot of it presented as if they were actually TV or print ads from Suzanne Collins’ fictional futuristic world. In keeping with that theme, a trio of new images have been released, this time with the spotlight on Lenny Kravitz’s futuristic fashionista, Cinna. A new TV spot has also …

Ah, Gingers… those soulless devils flame haired creatures, whose temperament often matches their plumage. Case in point: Merida, the Scottish princess in Disney and Pixar’s new animated film, Brave, who is as fiery of spirit as they come, apparently. She should thank her lucky haggis that they didn’t celebrate Kick-A-Ginger day back in medieval Scotland.
