Is Sony Planning A Movie About The Video Game Console Wars

Is Sony Planning A Movie About The Video Game Console Wars? By Russ Fischer/Aug. 28, 2012 2:33 pm EST There’s a war being fought, which has been going on for years. This isn’t some political thing that involves the lives of young men and the conflicting politics and ideologies that devour them. This one is important. It is the console war, that advertising-driven competition between companies such as Sony, maker of the PlayStation line of video game consoles, and Microsoft, maker of the Xbox line....

New Poster A Clever Image For Jason Reitman S Dark Comedy Young Adult

New Poster: A Clever Image For Jason Reitman’s Dark Comedy ‘Young Adult’ By Russ Fischer/Sept. 6, 2011 10:00 am EST It’s too bad that Sony, David Fincher and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo have already locked down the ‘feel-bad movie of Christmas’ tagline, because it looks like Jason Reitman’s fourth film Young Adult might be a contender for that title. The movie, scripted by Juno writer Diablo Cody, is a dark comedy about an alcoholic youth-lit author (Charlize Theron) who returns to her hometown to chase her now-married high school flame, played by Patrick Wilson....

Sacha Baron Cohen May Spoof Bond

Sacha Baron Cohen May Spoof Bond By Russ Fischer/Aug. 6, 2012 1:00 pm EST Briefly: Sacha Baron Cohen’s next project with Paramount may be a slightly more traditional type of comedy than his Da Ali G Show spin-off satires have been. The writer/actor just sold a pitch to the studio that “follows a James Bond-like spy forced to go on the run with his long-lost brother, a moronic soccer hooligan.” Sounds like a reasonable plan, and the hooligan brother could be a way to get some of Cohen’s signature comedy style into a film that relies more heavily on scripted setpieces than we’re used to seeing from him....

He’s been on the SlashfilmCast, we’ve covered and fawned over his movies and posted innumerable random, cool things about the man and his films. There’s almost too much to say about Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World so thankfully, Joel Walden can do the talking for us....

Watch This: Louis C.K.’s Hilarious By David Chen/Sept. 21, 2010 3:54 pm EST Louis CK’s Hilarious was one of my favorite films at the Sundance film festival this year. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been reduced, so thoroughly, to a useless pile of tear-filled laughter than when I watched this concert film. For months now, I’ve been wondering whatever became of Hilarious, but fortunately I’ve had Louis’ wonderful FX show to tide me over in the meantime....

It’s also an evil, downbeat tease in the best possible way. Fans of the property – which centers on a massive robot composed of five individual mechanical lions – have been given the run around for years. Scripts have been leaked, concept art revealed and bidding wars reportedly waged but even with the success of robot fighting movies like Transformers and Real Steel, we’re still not close to a live-action Voltron movie....
