ICYMI: New "Ready Player One" features several popculture franchises

If you've seen the trailers and followed the marketing religously, Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Ernest Cline's "Ready Player One" is shaping up to be one popculture spectacle - particularly because of the many franchises and icons that will be appearing in the film as easter eggs and avatars - like the Delorean from Back to the Future, The Iron Giant, the RX-78-2 Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam, and with this new poster that debuted on the film's Facebook page - the Swordfish II from Cowboy Bebop!

Definitely a grand poster that makes for a great Valentine's Day treat, and a movie to see and catch when it opens in theaters this March!

Ready Player One: New poster and trailer take you to a virtual world beyond your imagination

From the mind of director Steven Spielberg and based on Ernest Cline's best selling book of the same name comes a futuristic tale where the real world is on the brink of collapse, yet a virtual reality universe called the OASIS gives humanity something to escape to... And one boy will be thrust into an adventure where everyone searches for the ultimate prize in "Ready Player One". Starring Tye Sheridan as Wade Watts, a contest sparked by OASIS creator James Halliday has everyone scrambling to search for a digital easter egg placed by Halliday just before his death - which will leave the first person to find the prize his entire fortune. What comes next is a huge treasure hunt where no holds barred action and adventure awaits!

It's October 21, 2015: Happy Back To The Future Day!

GREAT SCOTT~!!! In case you haven't realized yet with this post, it's already October 21, 2015... The exact date that Doctor Emmett Brown and Marty McFly travelled to future Hill Valley in the November 22, 1989 epic flick of a sequel that was "Back To The Future Part II"!

In what is certainly a milestone and celebration for all, today's "Back To The Future Day" doesn't just celebrate seeing Pepsi Perfects, Hover Boards, and Flying Cars (most of which didn't really see realization in this date), but also the 30th Anniversary of the entire BTTF franchise as a whole. In fact, a new Blu-Ray "Back To The Future Trilogy 30th Anniversary Collection" was released today in the US... Perfect for those looking for a definite edition of the Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg classic series, and then some extra new content as well!

Jurassic World: First Trailer released online

Two days ahead of the scheduled release for Thanksgiving, Universal Pictures has released the very first trailer to the Colin Trevorrow directed new installment in the "Jurassic Park" franchise with "Jurassic World"... And it's a doozy to look at!

Jurassic World - Official Trailer (HD)
Starring Chris "Star-Lord" Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, the film takes place 22 years after Steven Spielberg's "Jurassic Park", and sees the island Isla Nubar now home to a fully functional dinosaur theme park. When interest on the attractions decline, a new kind of hybrid is developed to spark interest anew. Unfortunately, it backfires and becomes a deadly force that cannot be controlled.

Also, if you guys are fans of Spielberg's works, there's more than a throwback to the dinosaurs alone. ;)

Jurassic World opens on June 12, 2015.

Jurassic Park 4 gets retitled as "Jurassic World" and set for a June 2015 release

After months since the last update and confirmation came to place, looks like Steven Spielberg's return to the world of Dinosaurs is back on track for 2015... And literally, it'll be a bigger emphasis on the word "world".

Announced by Universal Pictures, the new sequel to the Jurassic Park film franchise that was once titled "Jurassic Park 4" will now be called "Jurassic World", and will see Spielberg return on a producing capacity. Helming the new film will be director Colin Trevorrow, whose past films include the 2002 Home Base and 2012's Safety Not Guaranteed. Trevorrow also wrote the draft for the screenplay alongside Derek Connolly, though no details have surfaced yet on the plot for the film.

It's safe to assume that with the title "Jurassic World", the dinosaurs won't be limited to a park or an island... And may just explode into the global scene with catastrophic results ala The Lost World: Jurassic Park. Time will tell for sure how it goes, and with the rerelease of Jurassic Park in 3D giving us a taste of the conversion, the new film will be entirely shot in this format. For more information, visit the source post at Coming Soon.

Jurassic World comes to 3D and conventional theaters on June 12, 2015.

Movie Review: Transformers: Dark of the Moon

When the first Transformers film was released in 2007, I was flabbergasted and ranting ravely like a kid again, amazed at the prospect that one of the cartoons/ toy franchises I grew up with finally made the leap into the big screen. It wasn't a perfect adaptation of course, but the initial concept remained the same, and apparently Michael Bay and Steven Spielberg delivered on their promise to make the "Robots in Disguise" a kick ass movie and spawn it into a lucrative franchise. However, when 2009's Revenge of the Fallen came along, it was met with mixed to almost downright negative reactions from critics and audiences alike, which is understandable considering the presence of eyesore characters and a plot that was clustered around like crazy. Simply put, the movie universe wasn't exactly cut from the same cloth as Generation 1, but it fared well enough in the box office to make millions of dollars in ticket sales, coming to the point that another sequel would be made, and it would be Bay's last foray in the franchise.

When it was first announced, Transformers: Dark of the Moon certainly sounded like a strange way to name a movie (why not "Dark Side of the Moon"?), but after watching the final product, it all makes sense why it was given the title. Without going much into spoilers this early, I can say that the third "Bayformers" was aptly named, and lives up to the director's promise that it will be a lot "darker" than his previous two outings with the Autobots and Decepticons. After the jump, take note that it will be SPOILERVILLE from here on out, so if you plan to watch the movie with a clean conscience, come back and read this review after you've seen it.

First Look at The Adventures of Tintin poster!

At last, after being on the dark on how this movie would be fairing before its release, the legendary young adventurer Tintin and his puppy dog Snowy are coming to cinemas this fall! One of my favorite childhood adventure books is coming to the big screen later this year, and it's directed by Steven Spielberg and produced by LOTR director Peter Jackson!

As posted in Slash Film, what you see above is the first poster of "The Adventures of Tintin", which will be a 3D motion capture film based on three classic stories from the Belgian comic book series of the same name by Georges "Herge" Remi. In this movie, acting as an origin flick, our hero Tintin (Jamie Bell) will encounter and meet friends and adversaries for the first time, including Captain Haddock (played by Andy Serkis), and Detective twins Thompson and Thomson (played by Simon Pegg and Nick Frost)! Even James Bond actor Daniel Craig appears in this movie as the legendary pirate Red Rackham, so it's an all star cast for a stellar franchise turned interesting new 3D flick!
