Actors That Should Be Cast As The Next James Bond

As one of the most famous fictional movie characters of all time, James Bond is quite a difficult role to cast. Casting director Debbie McWilliams told Entertainment Weekly, “It’s somebody who can hold their own, who is attractive, physical, capable of taking on not just the part but all the razzmatazz that goes with it”.

Alice In Wonderland Review 2

I was wondering if this was going to happen, going into the screening of Alice in Wonderland, the first 3D film I had seen since that little James Cameron film came out. I was wondering if the remarkable 3D theatrical experience that was Cameron’s Avatar could possibly be matched. I was wondering if eclectic director Tim Burton could somehow manage to, at the very least, keep this surging wave of momentum that is 3D going....

Avril Lavigne Turning Sk8Er Boi Into Feature Film For 20Th Anniversary

“Sk8er Boi” took the punk scene by storm back in 2002 when it first came out, garnering Avril Lavigne the title of the generation’s pop-punk princess.

Batgirl Star Ivory Aquino Thanks Fans For Support After Movie S Cancelation

The surprise news that Batgirl wouldn’t be getting a release is still shocking for those involved, as the film had already been shot and was deep into post-production. If released, the film would have featured Ivory Aquino as Alysia Yeoh, best friend to Leslie Grace’s Barbara Gordon. It would have marked the first time an openly trans character was featured in a live-action DC movie. Fans will never get the chance to see what would have been a history-making performance from Aquino, as the reported plan for Batgirl is for the movie to be shelved without a theatrical or streaming release....

Billy Zane Wants To Revisit The Phantom In A Legacy Sequel

Could we one day see a sequel to The Phantom? If Billy Zane were to have his way, then we most definitely would.

Perhaps a bit ahead of its time, The Phantom bombed in theaters as 1996 was not a time when superhero movies were anywhere near as popular as they are today....
