You know who is a workaholic? Clint Eastwood. The dude is pumping out movies lately like nobody’s business. And the great thing? They are movies that actually don’t suck. So, not only does he work his bahookey off, but he picks his projects wisely. Check out this track record since 2003: Mystic River (2003) Million Dollar Baby (2004) Flags of our Fathers (2006) Letters from Iwo Jima (2006) Changeling (2008) Gran Torino (2008) And now, in limited release in December, …

As I’ve said many times before, The Road is one of my most beloved novels of all-time and a movie I’m anticipating greatly. The cast – Viggo Mortenson (Eastern Promises), Charlize Theron (In the Valley of Elah), Guy Pearce (The Hurt Locker) and Robert Duvall (We Own the Night) is top notch and the source material (Cormac McCarthy) is pure gold. Still, even with a pre-release 88% on RottenTomatoes, I can’t help but think The Road is going to be …
Not much to say about these new character posters for Toy Story 3. The movie hits theaters on June 18, 2010 and these are all the toys you know and recognize. As a side note, since Jim Varney – the voice of Slink – died in 2000, the lovable little pooch will be voiced by Blake Clark. Clark isn’t a household name, but he’s a regular in Adam Sandler movies. I still would like to see some action on the …
It’s Pixar, Woody, Buzz and the whole gang of toys back for a third installment and I know I should be excited, but I’m not. I understand Pixar and Disney don’t want to sell the farm story-wise on the first feature trailer, but this preview just doesn’t get me revved up to see Toy Story 3. In fact, it kind of irritates me the studio imagines the fumes from Toy Story and Toy Story 2 are potent enough for a …
It’s no secret that Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones is one movie I’m looking forward to this December. Alice Sebold’s novel touched me and I consider it one of my favorite books. I had always hoped to see it brought to the big screen. I was absolutely thrilled when the multi-talented Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, King Kong) was announced as the director of The Lovely Bones. However, since then my enthusiasm, while present, has somewhat cooled. Why? …
Happy October 1st to all the faithful readers of AATM.com (that’s Andy at The Movies for the uninitiated) and to celebrate this eventful day, I present you with three new posters for November’s release of The Twilight Saga: New Moon. To be honest, there’s nothing really special or significant about October 1st, I just thought we could all celebrate, especially considering the snow Mother Nature prematurely crapped on the Valley yesterday. At any rate, click the thumbnail versions below and …
Not long ago, we shared the trailer for the quirky, funny, golden-cast The Men Who Stare at Goats. It’s pure sell, magic and win-win… and I haven’t even seen it yet. So what’s up with all the premature prognosticating? This poster. Sure, it may be a liiiiittle too Burn After Reading-esque, but those hairy new age faces, peacefully smiling at the honor of serving both country and The Age of Aquarius, are sublime.
This is the teaser poster for what surely will be the highest grossing Pixar movie ever? For Toy Story 3? Who designed this? Seriously. It looks like an intern at Pixar barfed this out. I mean, I know times are tough and the economy is poop, but last I looked Hollywood raked in a record $4.18 billion at the box office this summer, so you’d think they could afford to put a little more thought and love into the teaser …
This one-sheet for the Drew Barrymore directed roller derby-dream fulfillment comedrama Whip It answers a simple question: Is Ellen Page the cutest l’il actress working in Hollywood today? Yes. Yes she is. Of course, I’m sure that if she were standing here right now reading this over my shoulder, she’d be none-too-pleased with my paternal coddling. She’s a serious, emotion-filled actress, dammit!– not some cuddly member of the Innocent’s glass menagerie. Still, SO cute. (Click to embiggen the darlingness).
I won’t make any apologies for lusting after Kate Beckinsale. I just won’t. If she showed up and my door in her get-up from Underworld and Underworld 2, I wouldn’t even bother flipping a coin. And given my wife’s love of vampire movies, I’m pretty sure she’d just let me go at that point, maybe even with a “good luck” or something like that. Irregardless, Miss Beckinsale is yummy in both the trailer (which showed before G.I. Joe: The Rise …
