I haven’t read one word of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight series, but I have seen the movies and they’re nothing special. I have read two pages of Meyer’s novel, The Host, and I thought it was absolute poop. Not just poop, in fact, but cat poop, which is the worst. At any rate, I’m not going to start banging the I-Hate-Twilight drum, because I also refuse to jump on it’s sibling, the I-Dry-Hump-Twilight bandwagon. I prefer to stay Switzerland on this …

2012 hits theaters this Friday and NASA’s a little worried folks might go cuckoo and get a little antsy and David Koresch-ey with images of Yellowstone blowing it’s stack, Los Angeles sliding into the Pacific Ocean and the White House getting bulldozed by an aircraft carrier. I know, it puckers my bum also, but the all-knowing men of science want anyone getting sweaty pits about 2012 to take a deep breath and just keep living. Here is an excerpt from …
Do you know who Christian Serratos is? Wait, let me answer for you: no. I didn’t either until she bared her booty for PETA in a Twilight-esque advertisement speaking out against wearing fur. According to IMDB.com, Ms. Serratos portrayed Angela Weber in Twilight and is slated to reprise the role in next week’s The Twilight Saga: New Moon and June 2010’s The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. According to The Twilight Saga Wiki, Angela becomes a good friend to Bella after her …
Saw these new posters for February 2010’s The Wolfman today and I thought I’d share the goodness with AATM readers. As we’ve chronicled in previous posts, The Wolfman is a remake of the 1941 classic and stars Benicio “My Wolf Hair is not Make-Up” Del Toro (Things We Lost in the Fire), Anthony Hopkins (Beowulf), Emily Blunt (Sunshine Cleaning) and Hugo Weaving (V for Vendetta). And while the most recent trailer is pretty sweet, I’d say I’m 50/50 on these …
Lorenzo Carcaterra rose to notoriety in the late 1990s with his second work of non-fiction, Sleepers, about some Hell’s Kitchen youths sent to Satan’s prison for boys and the subsequent changes and justice they mete out against former inmates and guards. You may remember the 1996 movie version directed by Barry Levinson that starred Brad Pitt, Jason Patric, Dustin Hoffman, Minnie Driver, Robert De Niro, Billy Crudup and Kevin Bacon. I never saw it, but Sleepers was a definite page …
Yes, the best James Bond ever is 82 today and in his honor, I’m posting Duran Duran’s video for A View to a Kill below. 23 years later and that song is still catchy. Which is good, because the video might possibly make you put a plastic bag over your own head and suffocate yourself. I have fond memories of ol’ Roger Moore suiting up as James Bond. Some might feel a fondness toward Sean Connery’s Bond, and others might …
And by WTF, I mean what’s the big freakin’ deal? Of course, I am posting them, so that makes me sort of a Twileech, but really these are so nondescript they could be from any one of the three movies. Oh, heavens! Look! It’s Edward and Bella standing in a forest and surely he’s telling her she’ll never see him again or something else ragingly melodramatic. I’m betting Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are just about done with the Twilight …
Apparently, it’s Star Wars day… or we’ve become The Movie Blog. Either way, I’m sorry. Nevertheless! There’s a fun project running on the content site Vimeo called Star Wars Uncut. It’s a fan-video compendium that takes the original Star Wars (I will not call it Episode IV: A New Hope– nyah!), chops its 121 minutes into 15-second segments. Fans then pick a segment, film it on their own and upload it. When it’s all said and done, you’ve got 121 …
Last week I posted some images from Empire Magazine’s preview of Clash of the Titans, a remake of the 1980’s classic, which is due to hit theaters in March 2010. This week Entertainment Weekly posted some insider images of Liam Neeson dolled up in a hefty suit of armor for his role as the mighty Zeus, CEO of the Greek gods. I wonder how much Just For Men they had to use on the wig and beard Neeson used back …
Apparently the 66 people in Logan, Utah demanding Paranormal Activity come to our town isn’t quite enough to warrant the poop-your-pants scarefest to Cache Valley. Nope, instead the movie expands to 20 new cities, all of which are not named Logan. But if you live in the likes of Atlanta, Chicago, Baltimore, San Diego, San Francisco or Las Vegas, you’re in luck (for the full list of expanded cities, click here). And again, if you want this The Blair Witch …
