After making a big splash with his directorial debut DISTRICT 9, writer-director Neill Blomkamp returns with his latest sci-fi epic ELYSIUM hitting theaters next year. At Comic-Con 2012, Blomkamp and star Matt Damon spoke to the press about what to expect from this previously top secret film. “It’s a film about an orbital space station called Elysium,” explains Blomkamp during a press conference. “Earth is diseased and has been left behind and the money and resources have left with it.” In the film Matt Damon plays a character that’s trying to get off earth and head to Elysium. “My character […]Read On »

Even though the original Matthew Vaughn directed 2010 movie KICK-ASS (based on the Mark Millar and John Romita Jr.) didn’t make a mint at the boxoffice, KICK-ASS 2: BALLS TO THE WALL is on its way and co-star Christopher Mintz-Plasse is thrilled. “The budget is cheaper,” says Mintz-Plasse talking about the new film while promoting his new animated film PARANORMAN at Comic-Con 2012. “It made money, but not a lot of money so we all took a cut because we wanted to make it.” In KICK-ASS 2, his character Chris D’Amico trades in the Red Mist hero to become a […]Read On »

At the end of Season 7, a whole lot of bad was happening to the characters on the hit Fox series BONES.

At the end of the episode, she goes on the run as the team tries to clear her name. At Comic-Con 2012, Boreanaz spoke to the press about where BONES  Season 8 will be headed. “He’ll be interviewed by the Bureau and will have to answer questions about where […]Read On »

Fans of the TNT series FALLING SKIES may have wondered why there’s been such a slow burn with the budding romance between Tom (Noah Wyle) and Dr. Anne Glass (Moon Bloodgood) and at Comic-Con 2012 in San Diego, Wyle shed some light on it while speaking to the press. “It’s very difficult to write an interpersonal romance relationship on the show when you’re always trying to establish a base level of threat being ever present,” says Wyle of the hit alien invasion series which just got renewed for Season 3. “So we write these scenes where I would be on […]Read On »

Comic-Con News: Michelle Williams says she would consider a DAWSON’S CREEK reunion movie

By CARL CORTEZ 07/13/2012

While promoting her new film OZ: THE GREAT AND POWERFUL, Michelle Williams was asked by the press whether she would consider doing a DAWSON’S CREEK reunion movie where she played Jen Lindley from 1998 to 2003. Her response is quite surprising. “I would,” she admits. “I’d very happily do a reunion show, but I don’t know what it would be since my character died in the end. There are certain limitations – either I come back as a ghost or you film me through a gauzy lens in flashbacks as my 19-year old self. I would love to. Independently, we’ve […]Read On »

With the brooding Christopher Nolan directed THE DARK KNIGHT RISES about to hit theaters, people forget that the original BATMAN movie from Tim Burton in 1989 was also perceived as the darkest superhero movie up until that point. While promoting his FRANKENWEENIE stop-motion animated movie at Comic-Con in San Diego, the director remembers the nervousness surrounding his vision and how it compares now with all these dark superhero movies hitting the theaters. “I recall back when we were doing BATMAN how people were worried that it was ‘too dark’, but now it looks like a light-hearted romp – BATMAN ON […]Read On »

It’s rare a filmmaker gets to revisit something they did when they were starting out, but most filmmakers aren’t Tim Burton. And with FRANKENWEENIE, he’s tackling a feature film incarnation of his 1984 live action short film he did for Disney. The original didn’t go over well, but now he’s bringing it to life in black and white, stop-motion and 3D and we says it was a thrill to go back into that world. “It’s a project that always meant something to me, so it was great to have the opportunity to do it stop-motion, black and white and expand […]Read On »

Where does Edward Cullen end and Robert Pattinson begin? At the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con, the actor answered that question a bit while speaking to the press for THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN – PART 2. “After three movies you kind of get to a point where you can’t tell  where the character ends and you begin,” Pattinson admits. “After a while, there are certain things that are similar. You don’t know if it’s you thinking. It’s like you [see or] read [something] and it’s like … Edward wouldn’t do that. So someone asks you ‘why?’ And you don’t know […]Read On »
