Watch the seven minute chase scene in "Wanted"

Watch the seven minute chase scene in "Wanted"

By Mike on June 16, 2008

I really have no idea if Wanted will turn out to be good or just completely suck, but everything I’ve seen so far at least points to the fact that it should at least be fun. Continue →

This newly released 7-minute clip of the chase scene that we’ve all seen glimpses of is pretty rockin’. The stunts and entire sequence is awesome, and if you can’t get into the mirror gun that Angelina Jolie pulls out of nowhere, then you just don’t like good action gadgets. Continue →

James McAvoy NOT in "The Hobbit"?

By Mike on June 13, 2008

A few weeks ago we posted the story about James McAvoy being rumored to play Bilbo Baggins in the new Hobbit movies, but apparently those were just that: rumors. Continue →

By Mike on June 5, 2008

Here is a brand new trailer for Wanted, the graphic novel turned movie starring James McAvoy and Angelina Jolie, which hits theaters on June 27th. Continue →

I read the graphic novel myself and reviewed it in May, and while I knew the movie couldn’t possibly follow the evil storyline, I had some hopes after recent interviews with the directors and writers. Continue →

James McAvoy could be Bilbo Baggins

James McAvoy could be Bilbo Baggins

By Mike on May 29, 2008

Casting rumors are flying now that The Hobbit production is gearing up. I hadn’t even given much thought about who would play the star of the movie, Bilbo Baggins, maybe because I was so excited that Ian McKellen and Viggo Mortensen were returning. Continue →

Contact Music is reporting that James McAvoy is the producers’ choice to play Bilbo. If you remember from the Lord of the Rings films, that role was taken by Ian Holm, but obviously they need a much younger actor to play the part now. Continue →

It’s sort of caught me by surprise, but one of the movies I’m starting to look forward to more and more is Wanted, the adaptation of the graphic novel by the same name. It’s actually made me want to go out and grab a copy and see what made it so awesome that it deserved [...] Continue →
