We’re only a few months away from the release of Marvel’s The Avengers, which breaks new tentpole ground by bringing together characters from other big Marvel summer films, with a few new characters to round out the roster of an unlikely super-team.
But despite the approaching release date, we still haven’t seen too much in the way of official materials. There’s a brief teaser trailer, a couple international trailers and quite a few promo images, but most of those promo images look quite a lot alike. Here’s a new batch of photos that is quite a lot like previous images, in that they show the heroes in individual poses, but don’t really reveal anything about the film’s action or story. Read More »

Come July, when The Dark Knight Rises is everywhere from your TV to billboards, bus stops and almost definitely Comic Con, it won’t be newsworthy if it appears on the cover of a magazine. Six months away from release, however, everything is still a big deal. Like the fact that tickets are on sale. Or that Entertainment Weekly visited the set of Christopher Nolan‘s highly anticipated film and you can read all about it in their upcoming pop culture Forecast issue.
Read some quotes from Christian Bale, Christopher Nolan and see the new image on the cover ,after the jump. Read More »
We obviously all love moving images. If we didn’t, we wouldn’t be reading (or writing for) a movie website. However, if you’re like me and are extremely excited for the plethora of potentially awesome movies opening in 2012, right about now you are going to love the still image. USA Today has posted their 2012 movie preview and it includes brand new photos from several of the years biggest films.
The only one that’s a true first look is The Bourne Legacy (you can look at that here) but, after the jump, check out new images from Prometheus, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, The Avengers, Brave, Men In Black 3, Snow White and the Huntsman and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Read More »

As we head toward the end of the year, it’s clear that 2011 has yielded some damn great performances from both established stars (Gary Oldman, Glenn Close) and rising talents (Jessica Chastain, Mia Wasikowska). So naturally, the best way to celebrate their accomplishments is by inviting each of them to play characters wholly unlike the ones they’ve recently received acclaim for.
In a video gallery from The New York Times Magazine titled “Touch of Evil,” thirteen of this year’s most notable stars tackle thirteen villainous types, from “The Menacing Dummy” (Oldman) to “The Sociopath” (Rooney Mara channeling A Clockwork Orange‘s Alex DeLarge) and everything in between. Hit the jump for a photo gallery from the feature.

Oscar-campaigning is in full swing and one race many of us are keeping an eye on is Best Supporting Actor. The reason for the scrutiny on that particular category is that 20th Century Fox is pushing for a precedent setting performance capture nomination for Andy Serkis in Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
Serkis, who also worked with the technology in Lord of the Rings, King Kong and the upcoming The Adventures of Tintin and The Hobbit, is absolutely brilliant as Caesar, but you never see him on screen. Even so, the whole film hinges on his non-verbal performance. Building the film around him obviously worked, as Rise of the Planet of the Apes grossed almost $500 million world wide.
Ads are now popping up all over trade magazines and websites that state “The Time is Now” for the Oscars to recognize performance capture with a photo of Serkis’ face and that of the CGI Caesar. Do you agree? Check out the add after the jump. Read More »

Over the weekend two new official images were revealed from The Dark Knight Rises by way of Empire’s two new covers touting the mag’s on-set report from the film.
Now we’ve got four more images from within the magazine, as well as some quotes from director Christopher Nolan and star Tom Hardy that appear within the piece. I don’t think there’s anything following that counts as a significant spoiler, especially if you’ve seen most of the set pics that have cropped up during the filming of the movie. But even if you’ve shied away from all but the official info, you should be safe going past the jump. Read More »
