Roland Emmerich talks ID4 2
The friendly people over at Latino Review recently had the chance to speak with director/producer Roland Emmerich about the possibility of a sequel to 1996’s “Independence Day“. (Yes, the one with the alien invasion and Will Smith.) Over the years producer/writer Dean Devlin has been very coy about not saying a word regarding a film [...]
Terminator franchise for sale
Dark Horizons reports that the mixed critical reaction and weak box-office results have lead to no real plans to pursue further sequels in the Terminator saga. Coupled with the recent cancellation of the TV spin-off “The Sarah Connor Chronicles“, many industry people are predicting that the franchise won’t see any new action until well into [...]
Shawn Levy to direct Real Steel
There has been a lot of fighting/boxing themed films lately and I really thought we had seen it all. And just when you thought you were safe, The Hollywood Reporter drops this one on you. Apparently Shawn Levy, known for directing and producing hit comedies such as the two “Night at the Museum” movies, has [...]
Rambo 5 is a Go
Well go figure – John Rambo wants to take a final dance with the audience. One side of my brain says “Stay down John! Stay the **** down!” but the other side says “Hey cool! There’s something special about Rambo flicks!” Sure, “Rambo” (2008) was actually a rather entertaining film. Although I was a bit [...]
Ridley Scott is helming Alien prequel
I can honestly say that the two first Alien films (and “Terminator 2“) are my all time sci-fi favorites. Ridley Scott’s “Alien” scared me really bad the first time I saw it, but what movie. I just fell in love… And James Cameron’s “Aliens” – one of the finest movies ever made. Still in a [...]
Cameron unveils Avatar footage at Comic-Con
Today I’m going to give you a little update on James Cameron’s latest project. Well, to call it his latest is making it sound like something new to Cameron but as many of you know, that is not the case… “Avatar” has been Cameron’s main project for some time now. This movie blog, and every [...]

Noah Wyle is battling aliens
I just recently watched as the brilliant actor Noah Wyle wrapped his 15-year turn as John Carter on “ER.” It struck me that you really like that character. It was kind of sad to see the last episode, but in the same time I was tired of the whole concept. But still, Dr. Carter (Noah [...]
The Last Airbender – HD Trailer
Here it is – the HD version of the official teaser trailer for M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Last Airbender“, the live action movie based on “Avatar the Last Airbender.” Shyamalan is known for making movies with contemporary supernatural plots that usually climax with a twist ending. He is also known for filming his movies (and [...]
Ryan Reynolds jumps at indie project
Ryan Reynolds is by my standards highly underrated as an actor. Sure, he has done some bad career choices but haven’t we all… But when he’s good – he’s extraordinary. He can do funny and romantic (“Van Wilder“, “Just Friends” and “Waiting“). At the same time he can be extremely scary, intense and cool (“The [...]
