New JOBS Clip Tries To Make You Understand Its Brilliance
Well, the not-Sorkin Steve Jobs movie comes out next weekend, which is almost as exciting as buying a re-furbed iPad 1 on eBay. Still, you can’t help but appreciate how hard the Jobs team is trying. In this latest clip from the movie Jobs, ac-tor Ashton Kutcher as Jobs gets upset at people not seeing his brilliance. Kutcher must know exactly how Jobs felt, which makes him perfect for the role, right? Check it...
Read MoreNew Clips From THE ACT OF KILLING
The new documentary The Act of Killing is getting HUGE buzz ahead of its release tomorrow in NYC. Why? Here’s the concept: Death squad leaders reenact their real-life mass killings in the style of the American movies they love. In a very unusual move, Drafthouse Films CEO Tim League (of Alamo Drafthouse fame) sent out a personal appeal to fans asking them to see this movie: This film DEMANDS to be seen. The Act of Killing is not just one of the best documentaries ever made; it is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Not only that, this film has the power to spur on significant political change and expose a present day regime and society founded on the celebration of crimes against humanity. Because of this, I am reaching out to everyone I know to help us spread...
Read MoreFirst Footage From THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 Hits The Web… And It’s Electric
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has its Comic Con panel tomorrow and Sony released a panel teaser trailer to make sure that you’re in Hall H when it happens. The teaser provides our first glimpse at the film, as well as its primary villain Electro played by Jamie Foxx. Now, I wasn’t a huge fan of the first Amazing Spider-Man, which is just two hours of exposition for this sequel. But it did its job; it made me want this movie. Seeing Jamie Foxx as Electro, well, let’s just say I’ll be there opening day for this...
Read MoreWatch The First Clip From Lars Von Trier’s NYMPHOMANIAC
Oh, Lars. Just when you think Von Trier’s deeply ingrained misogyny can’t get any worse (I’m mean Antichrist was just… wow), you come a long and make a movie called Nymphomaniac about a self-diagnosed sex addict played by Charlotte Gainsbourg. (Fun fact: Three actresses have won Best Actress trophies at Cannes because, I can only presume, they we strong enough to work with Von Trier.) Well, here’s the first clip from the film. What if it’s nasty, you ask? Then you just think of a bag of chocolate sweeties. Nymphomaniac opens, and I’m not kidding, on Christmas Day...
Read MoreJohnny Depp Almost Died on the Set of THE LONE RANGER and Someone Made a GIF Out of It
The Lone Ranger even making it to theaters is a miracle. After false starts and budget conflicts, it seemed like nothing else could go wrong once the film went into production, right? Well, how about the star of the film falling of his horse, which was racing at full speed? Yep, that happened to Johnny Depp, as you can see in the GIF above (over and over again). Really, it’s a karmic moment for Depp because, well, I’m pretty sure the Tonto character is a racist caricature. But whatever. It’s Disney. It’s not like they made a movie that they refuse to release on video because of just how “politically incorrect” (read: offensive) it is. Regardless, I’m glad he’s okay. (We do need a Pirates of the Caribbean 5, after all.) If you want to see more, here’s a...
Read MoreWatch MTV’s Behind the Scenes Look at KICK-ASS 2
Kick-Ass 2 will be the fourth superhero flick to hit theaters this summer, which means it’ll need as much help as possible to breakthrough the noise. So Donald Faison, in this behind the scenes featurette from MTV News, is quick to point out that it has everything you want in a summer movie… like really beautiful men. “We’re trying to make a run for that Twilight spot.” Well, sorry, Donald. Hit Girl isn’t the depressed, self-hating, helpless type. Check out the behind the scenes featurette for a glimpse at the even more badass sequel to...
