Big Willie Rules Weekend & Sets Personal Records Even As "Hancock" Underperforms

Big Willie Rules Weekend & Sets Personal Records Even As “Hancock” Underperforms

By Jason on July 7, 2008

Will “Big Willie” Smith made this holiday weekend the fifth Independence Day weekend that he’s ruled the box office cementing his place as the King of the Fourth Of July. However, even as Hancock doubled the gross of the second place film, it still managed to fall below industry expectations.

Adam's review of M. Night Shyamalan's "The Happening"

Adam’s review of M. Night Shyamalan’s “The Happening”

By Adam on June 14, 2008

(My reviews tend to contain mild spoilers. While I don’t really think I am capable of ruining this, proceed with caution.)

I refuse to believe that M. Night Shyamalan isn’t capable of making another great movie. Unfortunately, his last two films have made that extremely difficult.

Some say that he stopped making good movies when he came out with Signs, but that’s my favsies (I’ll explain why if you’re interested), and The Village actually comes in close second. But Lady in the Water was an abysmal failure (did anyone really get it?), and I’m sorry to say that The Happening is no better.

3 New Mexican Posters for "The Happening"

3 New Mexican Posters for “The Happening”

By Jason on June 9, 2008

The marketing guys behind The Happening have released three new international posters for the film. By international I mean they’re in Spanish and are clearly aimed at the Mexican market since they show three different Mexican cities undergoing some sort of “happening.” I’m guessing they’ll probably release more posters for more international cities during the week, but that’s just a guess.

Some New Yorkers not excited for "The Happening"

Some New Yorkers not excited for “The Happening”

By Mike on June 5, 2008

The Movie Blog posted this today after getting it emailed to them from a ton of people. Apparently it’s a picture of a poster in New York for The Happening that has been a bit…vandalized.

Considering a lot of the hatred people have with disappointing M. Night Shyamalan movies, this poster seems to be an outlet for all of that pent up anger.

Third Poster for "The Happening" Is Warped

Third Poster for “The Happening” Is Warped

By Jason on May 23, 2008

So they’ve released yet another movie poster for M. Night Shyamalan’s summer film, The Happening starring Mark Wahlberg, Zooey Deschanel, John Leguizamo, Betty Buckley, Spencer Breslin, and Ashlyn Sanchez.

This poster is the third one so far and probably my least favorite. I’m not exactly sure what they were going for, but it mostly just [...]

Blockbuster disappointments?

Blockbuster disappointments?

By Mike on May 16, 2008

I’m worried.

The outlook on the summer blockbuster season was so hot a few months ago. The titles of the films coming out blew your mind and you couldn’t wait to see them.

Then Iron Man came and fulfilled our most wild fantasies. It was awesome!

M. Night Shyamalan Preps Live Action “Avatar: The Last Airbender” As Next Project

By Jason on April 16, 2008

It looks like those of us who like M. Night Shyamalan but have been hoping he would make a move away from the formulaic genre he’s been in for a while are about to get our wish. Shyamalan is currently in pre-production adapting the popular cartoon, Avatar: The Last Airbender, into an expected movie [...]
