Quentin Tarantino’s newest movie, the World War II “men on a mission” film Inglourious Basterds, screened at the Cannes Film Festival for the first time last week to mixed reviews — some folks loved it, others said it was long and talky. (A Quentin Tarantino film, talky? No!) Universal, which split the costs of the film [...]

We’ve heard a lot about Guy Ritchie’s adaptation of Sherlock Holmes starring Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law as Homes and Watson, but beyond a few brief seconds of footage played after the Oscars, we haven’t gotten a really good idea of how the film will play. Now the full trailer’s come out, and it [...]

There will only be one winner at the box office this weekend, and it ain’t gonna be Dance Flick. Terminator Salvation — made by Warner Bros. — comes onto the scene with a lot of good buzz and some great trailers. Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian — made by Fox — is the [...]

The first real poster for The Twilight Saga: New Moon (not counting those teaser-y posters of Edward and Bella that came out a ways back) was just released this week: I see someone finally figured out that Jacob might be more of a viable love interest if he cuts his hair. With all you Team Edward [...]

Zach Braff is joining the upcoming comedy Swingles as director and co-star. He’s also re-writing the screenplay. It’ll be his first writing/directing job on a full-length movie since Garden State. The movie, in which Cameron Diaz is already set to star, follows a guy who loses his wingman and instead teams up with the “sharp-tongued woman he [...]

What a lucky guy. The Zookeeper, Kevin James’ follow-up to his surprise smash hit Paul Blart: Mall Cop, just added Rosario Dawson and Iron Man’s Leslie Bibb to its cast. The Happy Madison production follows James as a schlubby zookeeper who gets dating advice from the animals he works with. Yes, that plot description does sound just as [...]

Director Kenneth Branagh is going with a cast of unknowns for the upcoming Marvel superhero movie Thor. Landing the title role is Chris Hemsworth (pictured), whom you might know because he played Kirk’s dad in the sensational opening sequence of the new Star Trek movie. And despite rumors that Josh Hartnett would play Thor’s nemesis Loki, [...]

Angels & Demons was no Da Vinci Code, but the Tom Hanks/Ron Howard pairing was still strong enough to be the #1 movie in America, with $48 million. (It’s reviews were actually slightly better than the pans Da Vinci garnered, and it’ll do great business abroad.) Star Trek, meanwhile, dropped only 43% from its better-than-expected [...]

The Expendables, Sylvester Stallone’s third consecutive film as writer/director/star (after the impressive Rocky Balboa and the mostly unnecessary Rambo), just got a couple of posters, which you can check out below. Looks like they’re marketing it as a Stallone/Jet Li/Jason Statham headliner, which kind of snubs all the Eighties stars that the film packs in: [...]

Selling a new movie by reminding audiences of your old hits is pretty typical in Hollywood, especially for kids’ movies. Half of Wall-E’s first trailer was devoted to nothing but footage of Pixar’s Toy Story, Finding Nemo, and Monsters Inc. Warner Bros. regularly includes footage from earlier Harry Potter movies in their new trailers so [...]

Sure, we’ve got Star Trek and Wolverine and Terminator and Harry Potter to keep us occupied this summer, but then there’s one little movie that actually isn’t a sequel or reboot or spin-off: Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, and the beautiful Marion Cotillard. (Actually, they’re all pretty beautiful.) We already featured one Depp-only poster, [...]

Hey, tweens who are skimming this article before jumping to the Robert Pattinson article below: I know you don’t know who Frank Sinatra is, but you need to trust me: this is a pretty big deal. Martin Scorsese — who you might remember directed The Departed, the best movie of 2006 — will direct Sinatra, a [...]

Robert Pattinson has signed onto his first high-profile movie since joining the Twilight saga franchise and becoming a mega-superstar. In Unbound Captives, he will star as Rachel Weisz’s son in the 1859 American frontier. After his father is murdered, he gets kidnapped, and a frontiersman (Hugh Jackman) comes to Weisz’s aid to help stage a rescue. In [...]

Al Pacino’s in talks to star in an indie adaptation of the nonfiction bestseller Blink. He’ll play a father who reunites with his twentysomething son and discovers the son has the (apparently non-supernatural) ability to size people and situations up immediately. Naturally, the father tries to use his talents in the stock market, or something. The [...]

Somehow, Paramount finally did it: they made Star Trek cool. Prior to its opening last Thursday, the cut-off point that was being whispered around Hollywood was $50 million. If Star Trek made less than that in its opening weekend, it would fail to pull in anyone except hard-core Trekkies. If it made more, it was in [...]
