Let’s face it, most people will probably go see Thor: The Dark World to see Loki… No? Ok fine, I went to see Thor: The Dark World mostly to see Loki. To be honest, I liked the first Thor movie fine, but I wasn’t blown away by it. And so I didn’t really know what to expect from the sequel and was pleasantly surprised by [...]
A few weeks back, Disney held a special presentation to screen some of the footage from Disney’s upcoming animated film Frozen (you might have already heard me talk about it here), which looked absolutely beautiful. After the footage presentation, we also learned a lot more about what it took to bring the film to life. I thought I would share with you 3 things you [...]
With the release of “Machete Kills,” grindhouse flicks are once again invading the mainstream multiplex. (Here’s my take on that film.) The term is used to describe a group of films mostly released in approximately the 60s to the late 80s, after which the grindhouse proper essentially mostly dried out. Named for the more low-rent movie theaters that typically played films of an exploration bent- [...]
Following yesterday’s trailers, I’ll switch it up with seven different movies that premiered new posters. The most interesting posters go to Oldboy and Nymphomaniac – both of which released a bunch of new ones – and I’ll round out the post with posters for The Book Thief, Dallas Buyers Club, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Vampire Academy, and A Madea Christmas. Each poster and gallery is [...]
Halloween is almost upon us, and that means Netflix’s horror section is getting quite the workout. While nearly everyone gets into the holiday spirit on some level, I know my scare tolerance is relatively low, particularly when it comes to movies about possession. The most harrowing thing I’ve ever done in my life is sit through a screening of The Exorcist in college, and this [...]
Back in September, Film Equals was invited to a press day for Disney’s upcoming animated film, Frozen, during which we, along with other journalists, got a chance to see some footage from the film, which was amazing. We also got a chance to watch the full short film that will be preceding Frozen in theaters, Get a Horse!. I had so much fun during the [...]
Since we’re creeping towards the most wonderful time of the year (Halloween, of course), it’s time for a round of Movie Mash. Much like “Monster Mash” it involves throwing a bunch of disparate creatures into a blender and seeing what comes out. The only common denominator between each film is a single word– from that nugget our creation comes to life. (You’ve all played this [...]
If there’s one animation company that has made a name for itself, it’s Pixar. Originally founded in part by Steve Jobs and Apple, and brought to greatness by John Lasseter and his team of talented animators, this studio is a thing of beauty. Not only have they created some of the most memorable computer animated films of all time (such as Toy Story and Finding [...]
Gravity, Captain Phillips, The Counselor. Three movies I was counting down the days to watch…all of which happen to be releasing in the same month. With Gravity’s universal critical acclaim, October is off to a good start. It got me thinking: which month has been the best…according to critics? This was also an opportunity to see if it’s true that January and February generally have [...]
After a week, we’re back again! For the newest posters, you can scroll down and check them out. It’s a Christian Bale-heavy week with two separate posters featuring him (American Hustle and Out of the Furnace). There’s also three more banners for The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, two posters for Rio 2, and a new Ender’s Game, Thor: The Dark World, and Jack Ryan: [...]
