    Could The Dinobots Return For TRANSFORMERS 5? Cast And Crew Share Their Thoughts

    Unknown 5:18 AM , , ,

    Transformers: Age Of Extinction has been out for little over a week and has taken the world box office by storm, raking in over $520 million. While the film may be the most successful in the franchise financially  it appears that the critics have found the film to be worse than, dare I say it, Revenge Of The Fallen and Dark Of The Moon. However, when has negative feedback ever stopped Michael Bay before? 

    Recently, Total Film caught up with the cast and crew behind Age Of Extinction to chat about future sequels and some plots that could pop up next time around. When asked about the Dinobots and if we could see Grimlock and his crew return in part 5, producer Ian Bryce said "There's likely a candidate," While co-producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura said "We hope so, they're fun characters." Di Bonaventura also added "There's a lot more to do with them."

    The cast of the new film also had somethings to say including Lucky Charms himself, Jack Reynor, who stated "I wouldn't mind shooting somewhere in Africa," While co-star Nicola Peltz suggested Paris as an ideal setting. Did somebody say French Transformer! Please, oh Lord, don't give Michael Bay that idea. Imagine an Autobot wearing a buret. Reynor also suggested Australian icon Ayers Rock as a potential setting.


    Of course, do not take any of this as fact, this is just actors and the crew having some fun, speaking of fun you can check out Transformers: Age Of Extinction in IMAX 3D and regular 3D at a theatre near you!

    THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 Blu-Ray And DVD Special Features Officially Revealed

    Unknown 6:14 AM , , , ,

    The Amazing Spider-Man 2 may be the most divisive superhero movie ever created. Obtaining a 53% score on Rotten Tomatoes, fans aswell as critics were split down the middle on whether they liked or disliked this recent Sony release. The Marc Webb directed feature just recently crossed $700 Million worldwide, making it the lowest grossing Spider-Man film yet... Yes, you read that right; $700 Million is now considered "low." Fans and critics of the film have demanding we receive a director's cut or extended cut for the film when it hits DVD and Blu-Ray shelves later this year, and while those demands have not been achieved, Sony has tried very hard.

    Sony Pictures announced recently that the DVD and Blu-Ray set will include 13 deleted scenes including a scene called "Peter Meets His Father," which sounds, really, really intriguing. No word on what the other 8 scenes will be, but here's hoping one of them is the deleted post credit scene involving Chris Cooper's severed head. In addition to the deleted scenes, all scenes will have commentary from director Marc Webb, giving insight and reasonings behind why the scene was cut. The Blu-Ray release also features 8 featurettes taking Spidey-fans behind the scenes of the latest blockbuster including cast interviews, never before seen concept art and more. It has also been revealed that Dane DeHaan's screen test for Harry Osborn/The Green Goblin will also be included. You can download the film in the iTunes store on August 5th or you can purchase the DVD and Blu-Ray on August 15th.

    With the recent news of The Amazing Spider-Man 3 possibly being pushed back, are you more excited to check rewatch this latest Spider-Man film or will you wait for 2016 to witness Drew Goddard's Sinister Six? Comment below and let us know!

    DAYS OF FUTURE PAST Scribe Simon Kinberg Chats FANTASTIC FOUR Reboot

    Unknown 7:13 PM , , , , ,

    A little over a week since X-Men: Days Of Future Past stunned audiences everywhere, Simon Kinberg has quickly become a fan favourite following the film's success. Kinberg has been in the superhero movie business for a while, even writing X-Men: The Last Stand, but because of how awesome Days Of Future Past actually is, we're not going to hold that film against him. Chatting with The Daily Beast, Kinberg revealed some interesting details regarding Fox's upcoming Fantastic Four reboot which is currently "shooting." 

    After the failure of the sequel to 2005's Fantastic Four film, Fox announced that they would be rebooting the franchise going in a brand new direction. This new direction lead fans to be weary of the project even after the film cast a stellar cast including Miles Teller, Jamie Bell, Kate Mara and Michael B. Jordan as the Four. Kinberg revealed that he was on set of Days Of Future Past when he first spoke to Chronicle director Josh Trank about the project. Kinberg revealed that he "talked to Josh, and he had such a clear vision of what he wanted to do with the film that was so different from the other movies—it was grounded, real, gritty, and what it would really be like if you went through a transformation and lost control of your body," Kinberg then revealed that the film would be a "coming of age story," which felt "fresh" to him.

    Kinberg has discussed the tone of the new film before, going as far as to compare it to Sam Raimi's original Spider-Man film from 2002. Kinberg reveals that the film will "feel unique as when you saw Iron Man, X-Men, or Batman Begins for the first time," Having a tone like those films would leave some room for some humour which Kinberg reveals that it's not "goofy" like the previous movies. Kinberg also stated that the film falls somewhere between Chronicle and Raimi's first two Spider-Man films. 


    You cannot bring up the Fantastic Four reboot without bringing up the very controversial casting of Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch. Kinberg revealed that "Stan Lee loves" the casting of Jordan. Teasing the audience and the fans, Kinberg also revealed that while on set he "can also tell you that having been on set and seeing Michael bring him to life, he’s really spectacular. He’s doing something really cool with the character that I think will become the iconic Johnny Storm."

    Let's Imagine Some Dragons With TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION

    Unknown 1:41 AM , , , ,

    So apparently Michael Bay wanted to make me even more excited for Transformers: Age Of Extinction? He succeeded. 

    In what comes as fantastic news for everyone, Grammy Winning, American Rock band, Imagine Dragons have officially announced that they have created a brand new song for the fourth instalment in the epic Transformers series. The song entitled, 'Battle Cry' will be apart of the soundtrack for the new film and will be included in "critical points of the film." In addition to the new song, Imagine Dragons have worked closely with composer Steve Jablonsky on the score for the latest film. In Bay's prior three films, Linkin Park worked closely with Jablonsky, but it seems like Imagine Dragons have taken over the mantle. Imagine Dragons won the Grammy Award this year for best Rock Performance for the song, 'Radioactive' which topped multiple charts the world over. This is the third time the band has worked on a blockbuster film, following last year's Iron Man 3 and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. 

    You can check out a small glimpse at the new song below:

    Transformers: Age Of Extinction is set to hit theatres everywhere, June 25th.

    RUMOUR: Irrfan Khan Set To Play Villain In THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 3

    Unknown 4:28 AM , , , , , ,

    Let the rumours begin. Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 just recently crossed $450 million worldwide, but with every success, comes an inevitable sequel, or in this case, threequel. The Hindustan Times have revealed an interesting rumour regarding Marc Webb's third Spider-Man film. You guys remember Irrfan Khan? The dude from The Amazing Spider-Man? You know the one who was eaten by The Lizard in the deleted scenes, has apparently been contacted by Marc Webb and Sony to discuss a role in the third film. 

    Now, this rumour is quite interesting. Khan's character was (in the theatrical cut) saved by Spider-Man and never seen/heard of again, so it is interesting to hear this rumour regarding his character returning as a "full-fledged villain." Back before The Amazing Spider-Man started shooting, Khan's character was believed to be The Proto Goblin, but that story line was dropped for unexplained reasons. Khan even commented on the rumour saying, "I don’t know about it (his role). Their film is still in ­theatres. I think now they will finalise the script and decide other things.”  

    It will be very interesting to see if Khan joins The Amazing Spider-Man 3, and I would be extremely happy to see his character return as the Indian star is one of the most underrated actors in the world. You can next see Khan in next year's Jurassic World.

    Review: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 (IMAX 3D)

    Unknown 6:25 AM , , , , ,

    “What makes life so precious is that it comes to an end.” Marc Webb returns to the directing chair in this sequel to 2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man. Starring Andrew Garfield as the spandex wearing Spider-Man, Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy, Dane DeHaan as Harry Osborn and Jamie Foxx as the sparkling Electro. Now I am a fan of The Amazing Spider-Man, I thought the film was good, not great, but it had a lot of potential with the sequel. Today, I am very pleased to say that director Marc Webb has returned to fantastic form with this second instalment returning to his glory days of (500) Days Of Summer. This review may contain spoilers, but I will write a complete paragraph at the bottom of the page, discussing spoilers so I will give warning on when the paragraph starts.



    The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is simply dazzling. The 2-hour and 25 minute runtime is simply forgotten as you sit and watch this remarkable film. This is mostly because of the amazing performances throughout the entire film. Garfield returns as Peter Parker/Spider-Man and gives a really fantastic performance. Garfield is given a script that may not be the best, but he does a really good job at making some of the average scenes truly great. Stone also returns as Gwen Stacy. Gwen has a much bugger role in this film, and she does an amazing job. Stacy’s graduation speech was one of the best parts of the film. Oscar winner Jamie Foxx features in the film as Max Dillon/Electro. While his character arc is definitely the weakest part of the film, the comparisons to Batman Foreveris definitely not deserved. Like Garfield, Foxx does a great job at making average scenes/lines of dialogue great. One poor line that Foxx manages to make great is “I’m gonna destroy the light, so you can live in the darkness.” Dane DeHaan. Wow. Just let me begin by saying, throughout the entire film I was swinging on Harry Osborn’s side. DeHaan was simply fantastic, not only did he manage to completely knock James Franco’s Harry Osborn out of memory, but he also manages to become the best Green Goblin to ever appear on the big screen. To simply put it, the performances in this film make it a must watch alone.


    The story for this film is what you expect from the trailers: Max Dillon is a loser, he becomes Electro, he hates Spider-Man, and he teams with Goblin to fight Spider-Man. But that’s not all. In this film we finally get the big mystery surrounding Peter’s parents from the first Amazing film. One of the major complaints that people had surrounding the ending to the previous film was that Peter ended up with Gwen despite promising her father he wouldn’t. However, within the opening 25 minutes director Marc Webb delivers a very (500) Days Of Summer type scene in which Gwen breaks up with Peter after saying she “Can’t do this forever.” I have heard complaints saying Peter Parker is immature in this film, but I simply cannot agree with this statement. I would say Peter is very conflicted, which is the exact same as the comic books. Peter is a kid. He does stupid things, but that’s where Spider-Man comes into the picture. The difference between Peter and Spider-Man is that Peter is conflicted and can’t make responsible or right decisions, while Spider-Man always makes the right decisions.


    As I saw the film in IMAX 3D, I guess I should comment on the film’s 3D. To simply put it, it was breathtaking. The whole film looked like a comic book thrown onto the big screen. The bright colours, loud noises, I loved it all. One sequence that makes the film a must see in IMAX 3D is the first confrontation between Electro and Spider-Man in Times Square. Spider-Man’s swinging was also fantastic to watch. All and all, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was a fantastic film. If you know the Spider-Man character, then you’ll have a soft spot for this film. Even if you ‘hate it’ there’ll always be a small part of you that really does love this film. From the performances to the stunning visual effects, Marc Webb delivers a film that will go down as one of the best superhero movies ever made.

    ***Spoilers Below***

    Now for the spoilers, I’m giving you one more chance to turn back, Americans, you have one more chance, that’s all I’m giving you. I’ll do it, I’ll post the end all in caps, I’m gonna do it. I’m giving you just one more chance. Okay, I’m assuming you’re all gone. Good. Marc Webb does a terrific job at using foreshadowing to allude to the ending of the film. For instance, the opening shot of the film are the gears inside Richard Parker’s watch, while the location of Gwen’s death is at a clock tower, which, ironically, also has gears. On the topic of Gwen’s death, I thought it was done really well. That shot of her motionless body as it hit the ground sent a shiver down my spine and watching Peter’s reaction was truly tear jerking. I also loved the way the film explained how Spider-Man had been gone for 5 months following Gwen’s death, bringing a sense of realism to the Spider-Man character.

    Anthony Mackie On THE WINTER SOLDIER; 'Black Widow And Falcon Are Dating'

    Unknown 5:34 AM , , , , , , , ,

    Captain America: The Winter Soldier just recently flew into cinemas everywhere; the film has become the highest grossing advanced ticket film of all time, not bad Marvel, not bad. Anthony Mackie, who portrays the first African-America superhero Sam Wilson/The Falcon in Marvel's latest chapter recently sat down with The Tonight Show host, Jimmy Fallon, to discuss the newest Marvel movie. 


    Mackie, who always talks highly of his projects, claimed the film is the, 'Biggest film of in the worlds,' Mackie followed this statement up by touching on a meeting he had with a huge fan of Captain America at the midnight premiere. Mackie continued, 'I got in a cab, I shot down to Forty Second Street and I walked into the cinema and was like 'What up dog,' and then this dude in the front row, he literally looked at me and was like 'This is a f**king dream.' 



    After discussing his encounter with the Marvel fanatics, Mackie noticed a unique relationship brewing between a certain Widow. Mackie (jokingly) revealed, 'In every scene, Black Widow is trying to introduce Cap to a young lady, and when I meet her, in our first scene we shot together, she was like 'Hey Falcon' and I went 'Oh! Hey Widow' so then I was like, I get it, Black Widow and Falcon are dating. That's why she's trying to give Cap to her friend. So if you watch the movie real close, you'll see the love that we have for each other.'

    Jennifer Lawrence Talks X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST

    Unknown 2:51 AM , , , , , , ,

    At just 23, Jennifer Lawrence can pretty much retire now. I mean, she's done everything there is to do as an actress in Hollywood. She's led a huge blockbuster franchise (twice), she's an Oscar Winner (and nominated another two times) and the internet loves her. As I said, J-Law, you're free to retire. Jokes aside, Jennifer Lawrence recently discussed her role as Raven/Mystique in Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days Of Future Past. 

    Talking to the ZeeNews India, the actress revealed some intriguing details regarding the path of Mystique. Lawrence revealed she was surprised with the lack of darkness to her character. When First Class ended, Mystique left her best friend/brother, Charles Xavier, and Lawrence revealed she was, "Struggling back and forth with wanting to get darker," She later continued, "There was one scene where I couldn't get past thinking she'd shoot someone where she doesn't in the script," While we have seen how evil and manipulative Mystique can be (for reference, go re-watch X2), The Hunger Games star revealed, "We filmed it both ways, but I don't know which one they'll use." 

    Just this year, Lawrence was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, for her role in American Hustle co-starring Man Of Steel star, Amy Adams and former Batman actor, Christian Bale. Lawrence revealed that she is a huge fan of Bryan Singer, and stated that it was, "Amazing," when she found out Bryan Singer would return. She continued, "There was a tiny fan boy jumping up and down and screaming when he decided to direct."

    You can catch J-Law doing what she does best, on DVD and Blu-Ray now in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire and be sure to check out Good Morning America tomorrow morning for an exclusive new trailer for X-Men: Days Of Future Past.

    [VIDEO] The Stalking Continues In THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2

    Unknown 1:32 AM , , , , , , ,


    While promoting The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Rise Of Electro in my homeland of Australia, stars Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone got to discuss teenage romance and the idea of stalking. Evident in the first film, Garfield's Peter Parker really loves Gwen Stacy, while his love for her may be deemed a little creepy (having her on his Sony desktop computer really doesn't help) it is evident that he really does love the girl. In the days of social networking and such, it is fairly common to be going on a 'Facebook stalk' and so I'm going to let this stalking thing slide, considering Spider-Man himself did in fact create Facebook with Lex Luthor. 

    Talking to Alison Stephenson of News.com.au, Garfield and Stone discussed the film in a rather light way, shining lights on the more intimate moments of the film. When asked how Andrew made Peter's stalking of Gwen seem so "charming," Garfield had to say, "I don't know if I did succeed - I think it may just be you that feels that way." When Garfield's real life girlfriend was asked the same question, Miss Stone replied with, "I don't think I should be validating stalkers, but I don't think he actually is stalking her, I think he's just trying to protect her."

    Garfield was soon asked how he feels Peter views Gwen in this film, following their relationship in the first film. Garfield said, "Everything in his [Peter's] head is saying, 'you can't, you can't, you can't' but everything in your heart and body is going 'I know, I have no choice' but it is, it just has to be."

    SPOILERS! Take A Guess What Is In One Of The Chambers In THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2

    Unknown 2:45 PM , , , ,

    HUGE SPOILERS AHEAD!
    Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has become one of everyone's most anticipated films for 2014. Earlier today, a rumour was flying around surrounding the seven chambers found in the trailer for TASM 2. Thanks to YouTube user, SevenWebHeads, we have another character to perhaps include in The Amazing Spider-Man 3, anyone wanna take a guess on who that is? Well, according to him, one of the seven chambers found at Oscorp will in fact include, The Symbiote. Although this may have been pretty obvious, considering Sony have announced a Venom spin-off movie, and Alex Kurtzman (director of Venom) has revealed that the symbiote will indeed originate from Oscorp, much like The Ultimate comics. In the Ultimate Comics, The Symbiote was developed by Richard Parker and Edward Brock Snr as a cure for diseases like Cancer. Although Eddie Brock has not been confirmed to appear in TASM 2, you have to remember that Sony met with a ton of young upcoming actors for unspecified roles, some of these include Alden Ehrenreich and Douglas Booth.

    Marc Webb Will NOT Direct THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 4

    Unknown 3:45 PM , , , , , , ,
    Image Credit: WeGotThisCovered
    In only a four weeks, countries around the world will see Spider-Man back on the big screen in this year's The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Earlier this year, Sony Pictures revealed that they will indeed continue the Spider-Man franchise after the sequel this year, announcing dates for a third and fourth film. Last week Marc Webb confirmed that he will return to the director's chair for 2016's The Amazing Spider-Man 3 but today, in an interview with The Daily Beast, the director confirms that TASM 3 will indeed be his last. Marc touched on the topic of TASM 4 by saying,"I’d like to be involved as a consultant, and I’ve already talked to these guys about it, but in terms of directing it, that will close out my tenure. I’ve had so much fun doing it, but after the third movie, it’ll be the time to find something else." 


    However, I would take these comments with a grain of salt, do you guys and gals remember when Michael Bay discussed directing Transformers: Age Of Extinction? Marc Webb also confirmed that we would be seeing a certain someone become a major villain in this film, spoilers ahead. Webb revealed that Harry Osborn will indeed become The Green Goblin in this film, despite what many assumed to be a prototype. Webb said "Yeah. There will be some "creature of the night" popping up." The question still remains, what will Norman's Goblin look like, if this is indeed The Green Goblin? Ultimate Goblin anyone?

    As well as discussing Harry Osborn and the fourth film, The Daily Beast also got Webb to touch on the ever present 'Shailene Factor'. This problem came up back in August of last year when it was revealed that Shailene Woodley's role as Mary-Jane Watson was completely cut form the film. When trailers hit for the film, many fans (myself included) spotted a shot of Shailene, however the director does again confirm that she is not in the film. Webb said, "It was just Peter seeing Mary Jane once or twice next door. Shai was only there for a couple of days and it was a very minor part. But I love Shai. She was fantastic in "The Spectacular Now" which was a script I was attached to direct for a long to. She was really cool about it and understood it, and actually suggested it in some ways.




    You can check out the full interview in the link above, Marc also discusses the usual comparison between Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2 and his The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Plus Webb gives some advise to any young, aspiring directors.
