  • The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey’s Runtime Is…..Short

    In an interview with Empire Magazine, director Peter Jackson has said that the first film in The Hobbit trilogy will be the shortest of all of the Tolkien films so far.

    “It’s looking like it’s going to be about ten minutes shorter than Fellowship. So it’s going to be officially our shortest Middle-earth yet. I mean, Fellowship was just under three hours and this is about 2 hours 40 minutes at the moment.”

    This really shouldn’t surprise anyone with The Hobbit being split into three films that the runtimes would be shortened a bit. But with the length of movies these days 2:40 is about the norm. The Avengers ran 2:20 and The Dark Knight Rises was 2:45.

    The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey releases on December 14th.

     

  • Marvel Announces Release Date For Ant-Man

    Edgar Wright’s Tale Will Follow Up The Avengers 2.

     

    Marvel Studios have officially announced that the feature film based on Ant-Man will be released in theaters on November 6, 2015 making it the first Marvel release after The Avengers 2.

    The adventures of scientist Hank Pym will be directed by Edgar Wright and no casting has been announced yet. There may be a good chance that the character will make an appearance in an Avengers sequel with the movie coming out just six months later.

    Edgar Wright has been attached to the project for some time and it looks like it will now become a reality. This isn’t Wright’s first foray into the world of comic movies having directed the amazing Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. He is also know for his movies with Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. The three are currently filming a new film titled The World’s End set for release next year.

    I don’t think that you will see Pym take his turn into domestic violence in his first movie if ever at all. He is famously know for beating his girlfriend The Wasp in comics so I don’t think the best way to convey to the world he deserves his own movie is to have him go Chris Brown in his movie. You gotta save something for Avengers 3

    I Said Goodbye To My Wallet Today.

    The Avengers

    I know a lot of you missed this small indie flick in theaters due to its limited release in only a few cities. It is really well crafted and amazing considering the small budget it had…………….

    Bond 50: The Complete 22 Film Collection

    You will find no better time to get these films on Blu Ray than right now. Amazon has the set for only $150 bucks (hit the link below) which is just under 7 bucks per movie. Take it from me, the packaging is quality and even comes with a slot for when Skyfall is released on Blu Ray next year.

    Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Part 1

    DC Animated has put out some good Batman titles over the past five years so let’s hope they haven’t bitten off more than they can chew by taking on Frank Miller’s graphic novel which is considered by a lot of people the greatest Batman graphic novel written.

    American Horror Story: Season One

    My favorite new show of last year. Maybe that says a lot about me considering how disturbing and depraved this show was. Still, if you haven’t experienced this weird ride you need to hop on before season two starts in a few weeks.
