Now that the frenzy of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has died down somewhat, we can start asking the question, so what’s next for DC? And I don’t mean what are they going to be releasing next, we know their release schedule is nailed down until 2019, but rather more philosophically, where do we go from here? For a movie …

THIS POST IS PURELY FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE SEEN BATMAN V SUPERMAN AND WILL BE FILLED WITH SPOILERS. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. SCROLL DOWN PAST THE POSTER BELOW AT YOUR OWN PERIL. I’ve now seen Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice twice already, and I cannot recall when last multiple viewings of a movie has left me this conflicted. Oh wait, I can! It …

With the current three day work week (thank you public holidays), I thought it best to keep this week’s Midweek Movie Mouth-Off short and to the point. And, let’s be honest, after last night’s premiere and Kervyn’s spoiler free review from this morning, no one is going to be talking about anything else anyway, we’re all pretty damn hyped for this …

After Spidey’s big reveal in the latest trailer for Captain America: Civil War, of course pedants have come out of the woodwork to complain about, well, everything to do with him. His costume is too cartoony, his eye lenses are too small, his logo is too fat, the works. Some people have even said they will go so far as …

So it seems like the idea of a crossover between the Jump Street franchise and the Men in Black trilogy wasn’t so far-fetched after all. We originally heard rumours about it back in 2014, but yesterday’s news confirms it. One of the most arbitrary cross-overs in the history of ever is officially going ahead. Obviously, this opens up the potential for …

Yes? Yes! Leonardo DiCaprio finally took home the gold! It’s about damn time, okay yes I don’t think this was his strongest performance out of the times he’s been nominated, but if it didn’t happen this year it probably wasn’t going to happen at all. And we all wanted so badly for this dream to come true, DiCaprio’s win is …

So it’s the Oscars this Sunday, which to most of us probably doesn’t mean much. They don’t exactly have a solid record of always picking the best movies or performances for the year past – but nonetheless it’s still the most coveted prize in the business and fun to try and determine who will walk away with what Oscar. This …

Gone are the days where a movie’s marketing could solely consist of some trailers, a few posters and lots and lots of interviews with the cast. Thanks to the internet and social media, movie studios have a quick and easy way of connecting with potential audiences. But, thanks to the internet and social media, our attention spans are a lot …

It’s not very common to have an actor fit a potential role perfectly, be it in terms of looks or acting style. After all, they’re actors, they’re supposed to make themselves fit the roles and pull it off – it’s kind of what they get paid to do. You just have to remember the way everyone was up in arms …

I touched on the topic of ratings ruining movies last year, and I’ll stand by my opinion, making a movie PG to reach a wider audience is more likely to be a hindrance than a help. Nothing brings this into sharper focus than a movie based on a comic book, especially Deadpool. We know Ryan Reynolds campaigned long and hard …

So Lionsgate want to play a game and boy have they been winning that game – with the franchise grossing $873 million worldwide on an estimated $64 million total budget for the series. That’s no small feat but unfortunately as much as they are winning, we are the ones on the losing end. Sure there is a place in the …

I’m not a big fan of The Shining and in fact, (and this might get me a lot of hate) I’m not a big fan of much of Stanley Kubrick’s work at all. It’s not that he doesn’t have flair and style, he packs that in bucket loads, it’s that for me he has always missed the most important part …
