One movie that I've always wanted to see a sequel for, though, is Master and Commander. That first movie was great and there are so many more stories to tell with those characters! Which of the movies listed in the video below would you want to see a sequel for most?

Would I love to have cinema quality sound in my living room? Hell, yes! However, I don't have the space for it. With entertainment centers on the way out and televisions getting thinner and wall mounted, I need something small that fits new setup as well as delivers the power that my bulky sound bar once provided. Phillips Fidelio B1 Nano Cinema Speaker doesn't only solve my space problem...it has a level of sound and quality beyond what my sound bar could ever provide!

I think my favorite part about this sound rig is how slim the subwoofer is. This change in design does not compromise sound, however, as its unique design allows for wider frequencies while at the same time keeping people from mistaking it for a stool to sit on. It's also bluetooth enabled so you can run music through your phone to the device when you aren't using it for movies or gaming! Here's a look at the sound specs...

• Sound Enhancement: Treble and Bass Control, Audio sync, Auto Volume Leveler, Virtual
Surround Sound

• Speaker output power: 120W
• Total Power RMS @ 10% THD: 320W

The retail price comes in a shade over $500. Find it in stores now.

0

A red-band trailer has been released for Matthew McConaughey's upcoming film Gold, which looks interestingly good. This seems like a great role for McConaughy to take on, and he's said that so far it's his favorite character that he's ever played. The movie is inspired by a true story, and this is the synopsis:

GOLD is the epic tale of one man’s pursuit of the American dream, to discover gold. Starring Oscar winner Matthew McConaughey as Kenny Wells, a prospector desperate for a lucky break, he teams up with a similarly eager geologist and sets off on an amazing journey to find gold in the uncharted jungle of Indonesia. Getting the gold was hard, but keeping it would be even harder, sparking an adventure through the most powerful boardrooms of Wall Street. 

The film was directed by Stephen Gaghan (Traffic) and the supporting cast includes Edgar Ramirez and Bryce Dallas Howard. The movie is set to be released on January 27th.

Creepy New Photo From ANNABELLE 2

creepy-new-photo-for-annabelle-2

There used to be this creepy-ass doll in my family that we would scare the shit out of each other with. We'd hide it in places and sneak it in places where we'd unsuspectingly find it. It all started when I snuck into my brother's bedroom while he was sleeping and placed it at the end of the bed sitting down staring at him. He woke up the whole house with the wonderful sounds of blood-curdling screams.

Anyway, this new photo that was released for the upcoming horror film Annabelle 2 reminded me of that. If I ever walked into my room at night and a doll like this was sitting up on my bed I'd take it and burn it. It would definitely send chills down my spine! I'm surprised that the poor girl in the photo isn't shown running out screaming like my little brother did. 

Annabelle 2 tells the tale of a dollmaker and his wife who, several years after the tragic death of their little girl, welcome a nun and several girls from a shuttered orphanage into their home. Very soon, however, they become the target of the dollmaker’s possessed creation, Annabelle.

The movie is being directed by David F. Sandberg (Lights Out), and it stars Stephanie Sigman (Spectre), Talitha Bateman (The 5th Wave), Lulu Wilson (upcoming Ouija 2, Deliver Us from Evil), Philippa Coulthard (After the Dark), Grace Fulton (Badland), Lou Lou Safran (The Choice), Samara Lee (Foxcatcher, The Last Witch Hunter), Tayler Buck in her feature film debut, with Anthony LaPaglia (Without a Trace) and Miranda Otto (Homeland, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy).

Annabelle 2 is scheduled for release on August 11, 2017.

Krysten Ritter Teases Jessica Jones and Daredevil’s Relationship in THE DEFENDERS - “This is a Reluctant Team”

0

Last week, we got our first look at Marvel’s The Defenders gathered together along with a cool photoshoot for them. Those photos featured Charlie Cox (Matt Murdock, a.k.a. Daredevil), Krysten Ritter (Jessica Jones), Mike Colter (Luke Cage), and Finn Jones (Danny Rand, a.k.a. Iron Fist). 

We now have some interviews being released by EW, and the first one comes from Ritter, who talks about what Jessica Jones is going through mentally when The Defenders picks up and also talks about her relationship with Daredevil. About her character, she says:

“She’s still dealing with the aftermath of Kilgrave, and now she’s dealing with ‘success’ — and not well. People want her to work for them, she’s getting a lot of business, and she’s not ready for any of that. She hasn’t changed, but her environment has, and there’s no handbook for how to exist in a world where you are now popular.”

Showrunner Marco Ramirez adds:

“She’s gloriously the most reluctant hero in the world. She’s going to have to let three men into her life who she doesn’t 100 percent trust.” 

The site goes on to reveal that so far, Ritter has shot most of her scenes with Cox’s Daredevil, and when talking about the relationship between the characters, she explains that it’s a “cat-and-mouse” dynamic. When talking about who is the cat and who is the mouse, she says:

“It switches back and forth, to be honest. No one’s best friends in all of the Defenders. This is a reluctant team-up.”

I love that fact that these heroes are reluctant to be fighting alongside each other. That aspect of these hardcore characters will make for a fascinating dynamic. Ritter then goes on to discuss her thoughts on the script when she first read it:

“When I read the first two scripts, I was like, ‘Wow, this is going to be big,’ because it’s so fun seeing these huge characters, and not just the four of us, but all of us in one show. This just has a big scope. It’s a much bigger world, because all of our characters have a very specific way in, a specific beat.”

The Defenders is set to hit Netflix this summer, and I can’t wait! 

Mark Hamill Is Back as The Joker to Read Donald Trump’s Meryl Streep Twitter Rant

Mark Hamill has released another hilarious audio clip of himself as The Joker reading a Donald Trump Twitter rant. This one involves his rant about Meryl Streep when he called her "one of most over-rated actresses in Hollywood" and a "Hillary lover," after she went off on Trump at the Golden Globes. Hamill posted the following comment on Twitter:

“Am I the ONLY one man enough to confront this #OverratedFlunkyLoser without resorting to an ad hominem assault?”

I hope Hamill continues this Trumpster tradition as Trump is sure to post a lot more crazy tweets throughout the course of his presidency. To listen to Hamill's last Trumpster audio recording, click here.

New POWERLESS Promo Spots Reveal Alan Tudyk Is Bruce Wayne’s Cousin

0
0

Two new promo spots have been released for NBC’s DC comedy series Powerless, and one of them makes a pretty big reveal. Alan Tudyk is playing Van Wayne… Bruce Wayne’s cousin. I love that! I’m sure there will be other fun connections like that as we learn more about the series. 

The new series focuses on a quirky group of "exceedingly average" employees of Wayne Securities Research and Development company that comes up with new ideas and technologies to help average people survive in a world full of superheroes leaving a mess behind them every time they fight a battle.

The series also stars Vanessa HudgensCommunity's Danny Pudi, and A to Z's Christina Kirk. Here's the synopsis:

Emily Locke lands her dream job as Director of Research and Development for Wayne Security in Charm City, home to super heroes and villains and citizens fed up with the collateral damage of their constant fighting. Full of confidence and big ideas, Emily quickly learns that her aspirations far exceed those of her new boss and officemates, so it will be up to her to lead the team toward their full potential and the realization that you don’t need superpowers to be a hero.

Powerless is set to premiere on February 2nd on NBC.

Chewbacca Violently Tears Unkar Plutt's Arm Off in THE FORCE AWAKENS Deleted Scene

An awesome deleted scene has surfaced from J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens that features Chewbacca ripping the arm off of Unkar Plutt! Not sure why it was deleted because the fans would have loved to see Chewbacca rip someone's arm off in the movie! Star Wars fans live for Chewbacca ripping limbs off of people and aliens! I love the shocked look on Daisy Ridley's face after the Wookie throws the arm across the room. This is one of those deleted scenes that should've stayed in the movie. Check it out!

Charlie Cox Discusses Daredevil Being “A Little Bit Lost” in THE DEFENDERS

0
0

In a recent interview with EW, Charlie Cox talks about Daredevil's state of mind when we see him in The Defenders. The last time we saw Daredevil was at the end of season two when he held his mask out to Karen Page. That’s a big event that is sure to make some interesting plot element to play with.

When talking about where we will find Daredevil in The Defenders, Cox says:

“Well, it’s been a few months since the end of season 2. I think it’s been quite a challenging few months for him. He took the death of Elektra very badly —I think he feels responsible for that. One of Matt’s big things is trying to protect the people he loves, which is why he keeps his identity hidden, and he’s failed. He’s left holding the dead body of a loved one, and so I think he’s tried to turn a corner.”

He goes on to say:

“It’s almost like quitting an addiction in the hope that it will get easier. He’s perhaps a little bit lost, and the best he can do for now is to not engage in his vigilante activities. When we meet him at the beginning of The Defenders, I’m not sure he’s completely found peace with that idea. I think he’s doing the best with what he can at the time. He finds himself between a rock and a hard place, which is the crux of his issue really from the beginning of season 1. ‘Should I or shouldn’t I?’ What is more beneficial to society?”

Matt Murdock is such a conflicted character, which is why I like him so much. There are a lot of layers to this guy and I love that he’s finally being explored properly with these Marvel Netflix series. One of the main characteristics of the character is his Roman Catholic faith, and Cox goes on to talk about how his alter ego Daredevil could affect his beliefs. 

“I don’t think he’s ever going to let that one go. He understands that these things are not black and white, not always about good and evil, but he believes that his intentions are good. He’s always, always going to wonder if he’s committing mortal sin.”

Again, this is just another one of those things that makes Daredevil such an interesting and complicated character! Marvel's The Defenders debuts on Netflix in 2017. To catch up on all of our previous news on The Defenders click here.


New GOTHAM Promo Gives Us Our First Jacked-Up Look at the Resurrected Jerome

0
0

A new promo has been released for the midseason premiere of Gotham, and it gives us our first look at the return of Jerome (Cameron Monaghan) after being resurrected from the dead. The guy looks pretty jacked-up, and in a way reminds me more the Frankenstein than The Joker, which is who he might end up becoming. 

His look could be inspired by DC's New 52 version of the character in which The Joker allowed Dollmaker to cut off his face. The Joker then wore that cut off decomposing face as a mask that he stapled on his head.

Falcone places a hit on Gordon after learning that he shot Mario. Gordon and Bullock discover a follower of Jerome (Cameron Monaghan), who plans to bring him back to life. Meanwhile, Penguin spirals out of control before the biggest television interview of his Mayoral career, and Bruce and Selina deal with Selina’s mom’s return to Gotham.

Gotham's midseason premiere airs tonight, Monday, January 16th at 8pm. 

2CELLOS Present a GAME OF THRONES Medley with London Symphony Orchestra

I'm in the midst of full-on Game of Thrones withdrawals right now, so this video came along at just the right time. Musical duo 2CELLOS performed a stirring medley of music from the show accompanied by the London Symphony Orchestra, and it appears as if they shot this video in Dubrovnik, Croatia, the same location the show uses to portray the fictional city of King's Landing.

If the awesome drone footage and slow start aren't enough for you, jump ahead to the 3:00 mark where things start to get a little crazy with dueling cello solos. The seventh season of Game of Thrones premieres on HBO sometime this summer.

James Cameron Is Making a Documentary Series on the History of Science Fiction

0
0

James Cameron is teaming up with AMC to bring develop a documentary series that focuses on the history and evolution of science fiction. The series is James Cameron's Story of Science Fiction, and it will consist of six one-hour episodes.

Each episode will see Cameron introducing one of the “Big Questions” humanity has grappled with through history, delving into Science Fiction’s past to look at how the genre’s films, TV shows, books, and video games were born, and where the genre, and humanity, might be headed. Throughout, Cameron and his contemporaries debate the merits, meanings, and impacts of the films and novels that influenced them.

I love the idea of this series as it's something that is completely fascinating to me. As a longtime fan of the sci-fi genre, it will be awesome to get some additional historical insight into how it's evolved over the years. Who better to do that than Cameron!? When announcing the series, Cameron said:

“When I was a kid, I basically read any book with a spaceship on the cover and I saw 2001: A Space Odyssey many, many times. The movie inspired me to become a filmmaker. I liked the special effects, but I really loved the ideas and the questions behind them: How will the world end? Will technology destroy us? What does it mean to be human? These are subjects sci-fi has never been afraid to tackle.
“With this series, we are going back to the origins of sci-fi, following the DNA of these ideas back to the source. Without Jules Verne and H.G. Wells there wouldn’t have been Ray Bradbury or Robert A. Heinlein, and without them, there wouldn’t be Lucas, Spielberg, Ridley Scott or me. As a filmmaker who specializes in science fiction, I’m interested in exploring the struggles and the triumphs that brought these incredible stories to life and seeing how art imitates life, as well as how science fiction imitates and sometimes informs science.”

The series is set to debut in 2018 on AMC, and I can't wait to check it out! On a side note, if Cameron keeps taking on side projects like this docu-series to take up his time, he'll never find the start shooting and finish his long-awaited Avatar sequels that he's already been working on for-ev-er.

Here's a Glimpse at the Live-Action NARUTO Musical That Will Tour Japan

0
0

Every time I hear that the Japanese are not as crazy about their anime as we think they are a bit of news comes out to dispute that statement! Comicbook is giving us our first look at the upcoming Japanese musical based off the popular manga/anime Naruto. The musical is officially titled Live Spectacle Naruto: The Akatsuki Investigation and will center around events that happened on and beyond the 27th manga in the series.

Check out this teaser trailer and continue on below...

The show is set to run throughout the summer in Japan starting out in Tokyo from May to June and then traveling to Osaka briefly before ending its run back in Tokyo. The show is scheduled to conclude in early August. 

I guess just because they're making a musical based off a popular anime it doesn't mean they're crazy about it. After all, we've been running The Lion King on broadway for decades...then again, we are still pretty crazy about Disney movies. Would you be interested in seeing a Naruto musical? Check out some additional character photos of the production below while you think about it.
