12 November 2009 12:00 AM, PST | TheInsider.com | See recent The Insider news »

'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' brings several new characters into the 'Twilight' series fold -- and now "The Insider" is introducing you to the hunky shapeshifters of the Wolf Pack. In the sequel to 'Twilight,' Taylor Lautner's character Jacob Black undergoes a mysterious transformation and begins hanging out with a new crowd on the La Push Native American reservation -- the Wolf Pack. Alex Meraz, Bronson Pelletier, Chaske Spencer, and Kiowa Gordon sat down with "The Insider" to tell all about joining the fabulous franchise. Bronson said that seeing himself transform into a wolf onscreen gave him goosebumps, while Alex says, "Everyone wants to do a movie where you're bigger than life, you can transform into something and have these superpowers. So seeing the transformation, I was really blown away." The guys, who say they've bonded off-camera as well as on, confess that their co-star Kristen Stewart packs a mean punch. »

Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire – interviews with Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey, Sapphire, Mo’ Nique, Gabourey Sidibe and Mariah Carey

2 November 2009 3:53 AM, PST | The Scorecard Review | See recent Scorecard Review news »

The big guns came out for Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey are executive producers, and when they attach themselves to a project, people listen.

Click Here to read Nick Allen’s review of Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire

But before we get to interviews with them plus the author Sapphire and the film’s cast Mo’ Nique, Gabourey Sidibe and Mariah Carey, let’s talk about this title.

Ok, I get it. You couldn’t call the movie Push, because that title was just used earlier this year in the sci-fi flick starring Dakota Fanning and Chris Evans.

But what’s wrong with calling it Precious and leaving it at that? With the marketing blitz this film is sure to get (from Oprah alone), how many people will only read a title, and strictly base whether they will see »

Summit Entertainment proves its international prowess

1 November 2009 1:55 PM, PST | Twilight Examiner | See recent Twilight Examiner news »

To most Twilight fans, Summit Entertainment is the production and distribution company responsible for Twilight, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, and Robert Pattinson's Remember Me. You might also know them for their presentation of Dakota Fanning's Push and the New Moon trailer-previewed Bandslam. To the film community (particularly the international film community), though, they are a surprising case study in international prowess. A recent Variety article took a look at the success that Summit Entertainment has enjoyed abroad. While many in the industry have lamented the sorry state of foreign sales, Summit has been consistently selling everything on its slate. At Cannes, the company did brisk pre-sale business on films ranging from "Fair Game" (a thriller starring Sean Penn and Naomi Watts) to Roman Polanski's "The Ghost," animated pic "Astro Boy" and "Twilight" sequel "New Moon." ....

Five Cool Movies For Spring 2010

23 October 2009 3:12 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »

It’s a slow week for movie releases, with Fantastic Mr. Fox the only release of note in the UK, along with Cirque Du Freak. Most of the remaining big films this year are due out in November and December.  

So, with the big winter films already hyped to the max, and with Iron Man 2, Clash of the Titans and Robin Hood being the highly anticipated movies this Spring, I thought i’d take a look at some Spring movies that maybe aren’t getting the attention they deserve – The Losers, Green Zone, A Couple of Dicks, Machete and Kick-Ass. Note, this is a list of the films i’m personally looking forward to, so you won’t necessarily agree with me…

The Losers

When is it? – 9th April.

Where is it? – Currently filming in Puerto Rico

Who is it? – Directed by Sylvain White, starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Chris Evans, »
