Marvel Studios continues to slowly reveal Shane Black‘s Iron Man 3. Earlier this week, studio president Kevin Feige talked about the film’s tone (it’s not serious); mentioned the villain (the Mandarin is unlike anyone Iron Man has faced before); and confirmed none of the other Avengers would appear. That’s all fine and well, but let’s see some new stuff, right?
Right on cue, four brand-new photos have surfaced, including a new look at the Iron Patriot (with a possible minor spoiler), our first look at Rebecca Hall‘s character, and a shot of a really messed up mask. Check them out after the jump. Read More »

After a dozen-year stretch in Uncanny Valley, Robert Zemeckis has returned to the world of live-action with the substance abuse drama Flight. It’s not the smoothest ride. The film’s alcoholism plotline veers toward the generic, the symbolism is often so blunt as to be laughable, and the supporting players are mostly one-note.
What keeps it on course, however, is the compassionate but honest character study at its core. Zemeckis and screenwriter John Gatins (Real Steel) have an iron grip on who Captain William “Whip” Whitaker is and what makes him tick, and Denzel Washington‘s grounded performance maintains the audience’s sympathy without sugarcoating Whip’s nasty side.

With the fall movie season well underway, we have new promos for two releases due out in November. The first is a 90-second spot for Flight, Robert Zemeckis‘ long-awaited return to live action. Denzel Washington stars as a pilot who’s lauded as a hero when miraculously saves a plane full of passengers with a deft crash-landing. But as an investigation digs deeper into the circumstances surrounding the incident, the story and his life begins to unravel.
The other is an extended TV spot for Rise of the Guardians, a DreamWorks Animation tale about all the mythological figures of childhood imagination — Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, etc. — banding together to save the world from an evil spirit called Pitch. Watch both videos after the jump.

Note: This post contain potential spoilers for Iron Man 3.
With Shane Black‘s Iron Man 3 now filming, fans have begun to piece together what’s happening via set photos, rumors and more. The biggest revelation thus far came two weeks ago when set photos confirmed a brand new suit of armor that looks like character named the Iron Patriot. Initial reports were that the suit would be manned by James Badge Dale‘s character, a villain in the movie. Those reports now appear to be false.
Latino Review once again has the scoop and a new, more logical, interpretation of the photos. We’ll reveal their spoilerish findings after the jump. Read More »

After years spent directing mo-capped animated films, Robert Zemeckis has returned to live-action with Flight. The film casts Denzel Washington as an airline captain who lands a plane that is about to crash, only to be forced to face his own demons as the investigation into the crash goes on.
This is a pretty thrilling trailer, as it intercuts moments from the crash and its aftermath with the fallout that takes place afterward. And Denzel’s particular brand of cocky command is just right for a capable pilot. I hope this film pushes him out of the comfort zone he’s been in for a while; the trailer suggests it might. It also seems to give a lot away, so we’ll hope it is less revealing than it first appears. Read More »
