HAYAO MIYAZAKI is RETIRING. The world darkens a smidge.
Bad news, world. Hayao Miyazaki is throwing up the deuces after his next film is released. Miyazaki is responsible for a legion of flicks that have inspired like at least thirty-three thousand people. Myself included. The good sir is also responsible for making at least three people I knew who “didn’t like that gay anime shit” begrudgingly admit they did. His retirement is a loss.
Official: BRADLEY COOPER voicing ROCKET RACCOON in ‘GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY.’
I enjoy Bradley Cooper. His musk. Those eyes. His acting prowess. I also am learning to love Rocket Raccoon. His tail. His intellect. His capacity for murdering baddies. How well will these two entities mesh in Guardians of the Galaxy? I don’t know. But I’m eager to find out.
KURT RUSSELL is in talks for ‘FAST AND FURIOUS 7.’ Snaketastic.
There is a good chance that Kurt Russell is coming to Fast and Furious 7. Snake Plissken sharing the same screen as The Rock? I am unworthy. Is it too early to talk Oscar-winning? Best Movie of All Time? Juuussstt kidding. A bit.
Zack Snyder sort of doesn’t get SYMBOLISM; Thinks ‘Man of Steel’ destruction “enhances the myth.”
Zack Snyder continues to amaze me. It really blows my mind how he continues to blow my fucking mind. Frat Boy Rock has come out to discuss the endless destruction in Man of Steel and spends most of the time puking all over himself with terms he wields clumsily. (I’m an idiot too, don’t think I’m feeling superior.)
VIN DIESEL originally met with MARVEL regarding a NEW IP. OH TO DREAM.
Fuck whatever set of circumstances has dragged Vin Diesel away from the opportunity to create a new IP in the Marvel Movie Universe. Clearly it wasn’t Marvel saying no. No one could be that daft. No one! So shame on whatever sort of Cosmic Joke is responsible for this. Shame.
‘DIVERGENT’ TRAILER: A HUNGER GAME BY ANY OTHER NAME
Here is a trailer for Divergent, a flick starring The Girl From Descendants and based off of a YA novel. It pretty much looks like The Hunger Games, but it doesn’t star J-Law. Which means that I am roughly 3,000% less interested. Will I see it? Probably.
BEN AFFLECK signed on for MULTIPLE FILMS as BATMAN; will help ‘CREATE’ his rendition.
In the completely unsurprising department: Benny Affleck has signed his life away for multiple flicks, agreeing to play The Cowl’d One until roughly 2032. That’s just part and parcel when it comes to joining a superhero franchise these days. Last time I checked, Chris Evans’ had leased away his sperm’s rights to play Steve Rogers should he suffer a sudden end.
There is more, though. Affleck has agreed to help create his rendition of the Batman.
New ‘THOR: THE DARK WORLD’ EMPIRE MAGAZINE IMAGES: MY MJOLNIR IS READY.
The newest Empire Magazine has something like thirty-three trillion new images from Thor: The Dark World. Marvel in the beauty of the Hammer-Wielding Beauty. Scoff at those who get to bask in his presence, knowing full well that you are much more deserving.
Or at the very least, hit the jump to check them out.
TONY JAA from ‘ONG BAK’ joins ‘FAST & FURIOUS 7.’ F**K YES.
Eat my ass, Expendables. Or actually — don’t. Your old man jaws will be far too unforgiving on my palatable backside. But anyways. That franchise has nothing on this rival “everyone you can fucking think of” cinematic experience. The latest addition? Tony Jaa has joined the cast of Fast & Furious 7, making him yet another dope addition to the sequel to this summer’s empirically superior movie.
Kevin Feige reveals ‘GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY’ VILLIAN, as well as when it takes place.
Confused? Not sure how the honey-suckled teats of Guardians of the Galaxy are going to fit into the warm maw of Marvel’s mouth? Kevin Feige got you, friends. He got you.
