Here are Wiki lists of superhero movies: http://en.wikipedia....language_comics htt…

So this cropped up recently in another topic and I thought it could make for an interesting subject in its own right. Are there any films that are actually better than the books they're based on?

Yippee-ki-yay! Bruce Willis is back as super cop John McClane in the fifth movie in the "Die Hard" franchise. John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover that Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces. Cast includes Jai Courtney, Amaury Nolasca, Megalyn Echikunwoke, Sebastian Koch, Yulia Snigir, and Cole Hauser (besides, of course, Bruce Willis as John McClane). (most are 3-4MB)

Yep, that's going to be the title. http://trekmovie.com...itle-confirmed/

In the fast-paced action thriller SNITCH, Dwayne Johnson stars as a father whose teenage son is wrongly accused of a drug distribution crime and is looking at a mandatory minimum prison sentence of 10 years.

In THE BLING RING, Oscar Winning filmmaker Sofia Coppola takes us inside the world of these teens, where their youthful naivete and excitement is amplified by today's culture of celebrity and luxury brand obsession.

And what starts out as youthful fun spins out of control, revealing a sobering view of our modern culture. with; Emma Watson, Taissa Farmiga, Leslie Mann, Israel Broussard and Katie Chang Promo stills

So this is a thing that I have been paying attention to for a while; Do you ever just hear a song on the radio that just fits (a part of a movie) perfectly? There don't even have to be lyrics in it, just the song/rhythm itself would make a perfect soundtrack.

Teaser http://en.wikipedia....wiki/Unforgiven Roger Ebert's review of the original Unforgiven. There is a relation here: Clint Eastwood: Wild West // Ken W.: Samurai. Both films sought and are seeking to reorient the 'idealism' and mythology behind both themes. http://www.rogereber...unforgiven-1992 If these film is successful in Japan, like (Letters from Iwo Jima ) it is likely to see a limited US distribution in major cities. Classic scene from Unforgiven:

While on a tour of the White House with his young daughter, a Capitol policeman springs into action to save his child and protect the president from a heavily armed group of paramilitary invaders. With Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Richard Jenkins. Promo stills

Quentin Tarantino's new film 'Django Unchained' is one of the most anticipated of this year!!! The first official trailer for Quentin Tarantino’s next film, “Django Unchained,” was just released and it’s an all-out hoot. This “Southern,” starring Christopher Waltz, Jamie Foxx and Leonardo DiCaprio, is a tribute to Spaghetti Westerns with enhanced Tarantino splatter. The trailer opens with Johnny Cash singing Ain’t No Grave (Can Hold My Body Down) from his classic, late American VI album. From the soundtrack and Waltz’s first, arch interaction with Foxx, you know right away that the tone is perfect. In two-and-a-half minutes, Tarantino lays out the story of a slave …

Interesting. I'm not too knowledgeable about Bond so it's up to you

It's one of my 'guilty pleasures' in film. I recently saw this again for the first time in a couple of years. It's probably my fourth full viewing since 2001, and, in my attempts to figure out the puzzle that is 'Hannibal', I've rewatched bits and pieces of it many times. Why do I say 'Guilty pleasure'? Unlike the excellent 'Silence of the Lambs' (4.5/5), it was critically panned. It confused, repelled, and polarized people. And even I would admit that it was definitely a film that was composed of parts that were stronger than itself as a composite whole. In retrospect, I believe that- like Ridley Scott's 'Bladerunner'....'Hannibal' was unfairly judged after its re…

A pilot with a substance-abuse problem has to land a crippled airliner in this Robert Zemeckis-directed drama for Paramount Pictures. Real Steel's John Gatins provides the script. Denzel Washington heads up a cast that includes The Hurt Locker's Brian Geraghty, along with John Goodman and Don Cheadle. This movie was amazing!!! One of Denzel's FINEST performances to date. The previews lead you to believe the movie will be more about Denzel being a troubled hero. But without giving away too many spoilers, his addiction to alcohol and dependency on drugs is portrayed so phenomenally in this movie. Denzel's character is truly despicable but charismatically and dark-horse hil…

Who do you think would be a better snow white instead of kristen stewart?

So I thought it might be a good idea to start a topic in which movies that are or will be currently in theater will be discussed. I go to the movies a lot, and sometimes I wish I didn't spend my money on a particular film, or fall completely in love with a movie on dvd later and wish I had seen it on the big screen! I think it could be nice to read people's opinion on whether something was a good movie or not, and it can also help people not missing any good ones! I'm going again today, and I'm down to two choices: - Ted - The Dark Knight Rises (again, but I don't care ) I have no idea whether people will use this or not, but before/if anyone starts posting: Give a…
