Bad news for Tron 

5/29/2015

Well, this is a bit of a surprise. Disney has apparently decided to not move forward with it's planned Tron sequel that was rumored to be title, Tron: Ascension. Director Joseph Kosinski, along side returning actors Olivia Wilde and Garrett Hedlund, were also rumored to return for the sequel. After 2010's lack luster performance of the second film in the series, it finally began to seem that the sequel was actually moving forward. One has to wonder if this is a reaction to Disney's less than stellar box office performance from Tomorrowland over Memorial Day Weekend. You can never say never when it comes to Hollywood but for the time being, it looks like we won't be seeing Tron 3 anytime soon.

We might not get that "It," remake after all

5/27/2015

Traditionally, memorial day weekend is the start to the summer for most people in the U.S. including the box office, but recent years have seen some of the years bigger films open as early as April and this years box office suffered, heavily. It suffered so bad in fact, that this is the lowest box office turnout we've had for the four day weekend since 2001. It was so slow that not even a Disney movie could turn out their expected profit but the real problem here is the remake of the 1982 horror classic, Poltergeist, that managed to bring in a fair 28 million dollars (which, against a 35 million dollar budget isn't so bad,) the problem is this films underwhelming debut spells trouble for another remake, Stephen King's "It." True Detective director, Cary Fukunaga, stepped away from the project this past weekend citing, "budgetary disputes," as being part of the reason he left. Various sources have also claimed that New Line, the company behind the remake, was afraid to give the project too much money because of the low earnings that came in from Poltergeist. Regardless of what happened behind the scenes, it seems as though for the moment that the project is shelved, indefinitely. So only time will tell if we will get to see Pennywise again.

The Flash season 1 review

It's been a long few months but we've finally reached the climactic ending of the CW's latest super hero series. The Flash started in October 2014, featuring former Glee alum, Grant Gustin as Barry Allen. After an accident from an accelerator, Allen is given the power of super speed and tries to find the man that killed his mother and in turn, framed his father for a crime he didn't commit. The Flash, while lighthearted at times, never lets up on the serious tone, a note most likely borrowed from it's inspiration series Arrow, which crossed over in a handful of episodes. The series as well featured a a great supporting cast and managed to give us enough fun and interesting villains to earn a spin-off of their own. The action is stylish and some of the scenes even rival big budget speedsters like Avengers: Age of Ultrons Quicksilver. The Flash's biggest advantage however, is time. In an era where seemingly ever medium is being populated with a plethora of Super heroes, The Flash manages to give a wide arrange of emotional growth that we're not so use to seeing. The series is full of tricks and turns and some amazing nods towards whats next to come in Season two including another hero who will emerge from the S.T.A.R.R. Labs team. As to not spoil much for those who haven't seen it, this is seriously one of the best comic book based series on television and one you'll want to binge watch when it comes out!

Summer blockbuster season is off with a bang and we may just have this years best action flick in Mad Max: Fury Road. The post apocalyptic action film finds out hero Max, played by Tom Hardy, captured by a cult and being dragged through the desert before running into and eventually teaming up with Charlize Theron who plays Imperator Furiosa, who has a plan of her own. The movie plays heavily on the theme of redemption, revolving around our central cast, including X-Men First Class actor, Nichoulas Holt.

The movie doesn't waste any time diving head first into the action, moving from car scene to brutal shoot-outs, Mad Max guarantee's a wild ride. The movie has even received critical acclaim since it's release, currently sitting with a 98% on rotten tomatoes. With it's insane action and beautiful settings, Mad Max: Fury Road is one cinematic experience you don't want to miss.
