The world we live in now is doused in fear. It seems that mass man-made catastrophes are becoming the norm. If it follows us in the real world, there’s no reason it shouldn’t follow us in the fictional. So is the case this week as Chicago Fire tackles a mass shooting, and yes, there are casualties. In the beginning of the episode Casey is furious that the alderman he assisted last week is skimming profits off a charity. He wants to turn him in, but Dawson warns him that he needs to be sure this is what he wants

Paul Thomas Anderson is having a good morning. While his "Inherent Vice" probably deserved a couple more nods, the filmmaker was Oscar nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, while Costume Designer Mark Bridges was honored for his work on the movie. Indeed, both the content and look of the film captured Thomas Pynchon's freewheeling, weirdo noir tale, and the picture marks another distinct effort from the director. Indeed, as we've heard many times over the past year, these are the kinds of movies studios should invest in. And lo! The sky is falling with the glut of superhero movies on the way! But guess what? Paul Thomas Anderson doesn't want to hear it. "Ah, that's such a fucking crock of shit," he told Rolling Stone. "I can't remember a year in recent memory where there were less complaints about the quality of movies. And what's wrong with superhero movies, you know?...

There has been a lot of scuttlebutt over the past week or so about what a terrible summer it's been for the movies. Box office is down and there appears to be a dearth of real blockbusters on the horizon. It's led to some predictable "The sky is falling!" stories from media looking for something scandalous to write about. Well, take a deep breath, people. Hollywood knew this summer was weak months ago. The movie business is a creative business and unless there are movies people are dying to see, it can only sustain a certain level of success. 2014 has a long way to go, however. From "Guardians of the Galaxy" to "Gone Girl" to "Interstellar" to "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay" to "Exodus: Gods and Kings" to the final "Hobbit" movie, there are a ton of broad hits on the way that could make an impact on pop culture (and...

Uh oh, the box office is down about 45% from last year’s July 4th weekend. The sky is falling! Ok, maybe not so much, but a malaise has certainly kicked in with audiences and they aren’t connecting with these films. This time last year, the July 4th weekend sold $220 million worth of tickets (a 12% increase from 2012). It did so on the backs of “Despicable Me 2” and even the flop of the “Lone Ranger” (which couldn’t crack $30 million in its opening weekend). Fast forward to 2014, and it’s not looking hot in comparison at all. Why is? that Well, despite those that actually love Michael Bay/love to hate-watch Michael Bay, “Transformers: Age of Extinction” fell a rather substantial 64% in its second week. It sounds like some people finally read those negative reviews, and the explosion-happy audience already went last weekend. Of course, ‘Age Of Extinction’ has earned $401 million overseas.

It’s totally fair to call Steven Soderbergh’s keynote address on the State of Cinema at the San Francisco International Film Festival a rant. After all, he did. The filmmaker, who came of age during the halcyon Down and Dirty Pictures days of 1990′s nascent indie movement, has expressed his increasing frustration about being boxed-in by the studio’s increasing reliance on blockbuster tentpoles. “I’ve been in meetings where I can feel it slipping away, where I can feel that the ideas I’m tossing out, they’re too scary or too weird,” he told the festival audience.

Footage from "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" screened last week in Las Vegas to movie theater owners and some journalists ... and shockingly, the reaction was not so positive. The sky is falling — but at least it looks incredibly sharp and realistic.
Too realistic, it seems.
The 10-minute clip was the first high-profile look at a movie at 48 frames per second (fps) instead of the standard 24 fps — and publicity turned sour as some reported the footage was so sharp it was distracting to watch.
"It looked like a made-for-tv movie," wrote The Los Angeles Times. "It was too accurate, too clear."
They're entitled to their opinion, but we have proof the criticism is premature — and possibly a moot point.
What does 48 fps actually mean?
When we watch film, we see 24 images each second, flashing before our eyes, just like when we draw pictures in the corner of a book, one each page,...

The sky is falling in the new poster and trailer for the pre-apocalyptic comedy Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World starring Golden Globe Award winner Steve Carell and Academy Award nominee Keira Knightley.
(via Yahoo! Movies)
Set in a too-near future, the movie explores what people will do when humanity’s last days are at hand. As the respective journeys of Dodge (Mr. Carell) and Penny (Ms. Knightley) converge, the two spark to each other and their outlooks – if not the world’s – brighten.
Lorene Scafaria, who wrote the original screenplay, is making her feature directorial debut with the film. She wrote the screenplay adaptation for the 2008 feature Nick & Norah.s Infinite Playlist, also for Mandate, which starred Michael Cera and Kat Dennings.
Focus Features holds U.S. distribution rights to Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World, which is being co-financed by Indian Paintbrush and Mandate Pictures.

What is Movie News After Dark? It’s a nightly thing about movies. No big deal. We begin tonight with a new image from The Great Gatsby featuring Leo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan, Tobey Maguire and Joel Edgerton looking quite dapper. One can only imagine how much more dapper this will all look when we see it for the first time in 3D. I like the word dapper. Last year, The Golden Globes learned that finding a comedian with a bit of edge can be dangerous and good for your ratings. This year, the Independent Spirit Awards is following suit… Or, wait, cancel that. The Indie Spirits are going to be filled with stoner humor. Seth Rogen is hosting. He will undoubtedly laugh a lot, though. In the world of theater there’s a new thing called ‘Tweet Seats’ where you can come and Tweet through a performance. It sounds like an awful idea, as...

Toronto - Something peculiar happened at the press screening for Madonna's "W.E" this morning at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. Unlike, the packed first showing at the Venice Film Festival less than two weeks ago, there were no unexpected irruptions of laughter. And you didn't have press passionately ripping the drama as they walked out of the theater. In fact, the reaction was much more subdued. Granted, the Venice reaction scared away many of the industry and press who might have seen it (about 40% of the theater was full), but there was no flurry of "The sky is falling!...

As the only literate Reject, it’s my duty to find the latest, the greatest and the untouched classics that would make great source material for film adaptations. I read so you don’t have to. One thing has become clear in the past week. Despite the comic book movie news flowing fast and furiously, the heroes were all familiar faces. The studios investing the most in bringing comic books to life have lost the plot a bit when it comes to the next few years of heroes to cultivate. Marvel tapping Black Panther is a nice start, but the studios are going to need to find alternate comic books to adapt in order to bring new life to the genre and surprise the fans who think seeing Spider-Man again will be fun but unnecessary. This week, we’ll look at the story of a family of lions in a time of war that remind us that...

It’s all so depressing. This is civilization in decline. Ahh! The sky is falling!

The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Well, not really, but that's what it seems like in some of the major cities right now in World of Warcraft. Several stages of the pre-Cataclysm event have occurred, and now it is time to defend the cities in the major world event for which most players have been waiting. The Alliance has to defend Stormwind and Ironforge, while the Horde must keep Orgrimmar and Thunderbluff safe. Rifts will open and send forth elementals in these cities once every two to three hours. When they start, some players will need to put sandbags out to protect the cities, while others fight the elementals. Next, while still fighting, players need to find and save trapped citizens (using a special totem that you can get from someone at the inn in each city). You ...

Hot Commodity Hollywood is coming to Wall Street in a big way despite studio objections. If the plan is approved (likely), investors will be able to bid on projected box office figures on the Nyse and Iron Man 2 may be the first movie publicly traded. Maybe this will finally be the impetus to stop making Jennifer Aniston movies. Ohhh, S***! Ok, so word of how twisted the torture porn The Human Centipede is and its trailer have been around for awhile, but Bloody-Disgusting has posted a new 2-minute clip from this demented piece of work, which debuts OnDemand April 28 and then rolls out gradually nationwide.
