your personal road map to what's going on in Hollywood
SPOILER ALERT: *So many spoilers your mom will wonder who left the refrigerator open*
Background: I’ve watched this show live since season 4. I bought the first season on DVD site unseen years ago and fell in love. With that first season, I actually started the last disc around 11:30pm and kept convincing myself “just one more episode” ’til I had finished the whole thing, knowing that I had to be at work at 6 the next morning. I’m a fan.
…now it’s time… to say goodbye… to all our company…
Background: I caught up on Lost around the start of season 4. I borrowed and rented the first three seasons and watched them in about a month. And I was hooked. I’ve watched the last three seasons pretty much live. Needless to say, I’m a fan.
If you are a regular reader here at Truth On Cinema then I am sure you have come to know and expect a summer movie preview around this time. You can typically count on there being a huge popular post dedicated to all of the big summer movies that come out. I work hard every year to put together this lengthy post with all of the information I can gather from films that I think are going to blow your summer away….but, for the first time in two years, I am not going to do a Summer Movie Preview. Want to know why, then click on through…
Alright, so, we all know Transformers 3 isn’t going to be “good” in the sense that you were thinking, but now that we don’t have to painstakingly get through Megan Fox’s terrible acting and doing everything in slo-mo, it may actually be survivable. So, I’m sure you’re asking yourself the all-too-important question I asked when I first heard this, “What happened?”
I know. It’s been a while.
Well, maybe I was just giving your heads a chance to stop reeling from my last post(s). But whatever the case, I’m back! And this time, I’ve got a bone to pick with you guys about what films you call “good” and what films you call “bad.”
In another exciting installment of Truth On Cinema’s “Film Exposure,” we’re going to take a closer look at Matt Damon’s next film due out at the end of the summer called The Adjustment Bureau. What is this film about? Who are the bureau? What are they adjusting, and why is Matt Damon involved with Emily Blunt…or is he? And just what can we expect from a film adapted from a novel by “hit-or-miss” novelist Philip K. Dick? All those answers, and more, as we expose you to The Adjustment Bureau.
I know that’s not the most expected cinematic pairing in the world, but hey, they both come out this summer and they are both HIGH on my Most Anticipated Films of 2010 List I made back in January. Christopher Nolan tries to even further twist our minds with the latest IMAX poster for Inception, and Paramount is making their final marketing push for M. Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender before it debuts in July.
As I said in my Top 24 Most Anticipated Films of 2010 about the film The American, if you give me George Clooney as an aging assassin with one more job to do, I’m in!
One of the more peculiar and exciting comic book film adaptations is Kenneth Branagh’s Thor and while we haven’t seen anything to lead us to believe it’s going to be great, the “anticipatory-greatness” level is high for me. There’s something magical about Marvel bringing in a “sleuth” director that’s not at all known for big budget films to handle a character such as Thor and for whatever reason, I’m excited! Well, the wait is over, we finally get our first chance to see what “Thor” is going to look like.
Like I promised in yesterday’s post about Jonah Hex, we have the official trailer for the revenge-thirsty western comic book film. It’s everything you’ve ever wanted in a comic book western: explosions, bad guys, accents, over-sexed bad actress, and oh yeah, gatling guns on horses!
