It has taken the web by storm in recent months. [...]
" Super proves that superhero films still have a lot of storytelling juice left in them. And all of those questions that superhero films deal with, about power and responsibility and the individual versus society, can still be asked in new and challenging ways. Make no mistake: this film is really over the top and liable to offend a lot of people. But if you enjoy South Park -style insanity and midnight movie weirdness, then this film will be your new favorite. And it's a surprisingly sweet, moving film that will stick in your head long after you've stopped laughing [...]

Ellen Page O próximo filme da bela Ellen será SUPER , uma comédia sobre heroís. O filme é liderado por Rainn Wilson de The Office, que é uma espécie de novo Jim Carrey mais fraco; Liv Tyler que é sempre lembrada por Armageddon e ser filha de Steven Tyler, e Kevin Bacon. A idéia do filme parece ser parecida com a de Kick-Ass , por isso, não esperem nada além de algumas risadas.

You probably associate Ellen Page with Moldy Peaches, but as she told EW , Juno's listening to ghostly, hypnotic, claustrophobic music when not carrying Michael Cera's baby: (Via @ TriAngleRecords ) Based on what she likes about Balam Acab and Salem, she should dig into some atmospheric black metal next.
Perhaps because Super comes from the demented mind of director James Gunn, or perhaps because there's something oddly irresistible about the darkly comic superhero deconstruction film, or perhaps even because Rainn Wilson and Ellen Page have a dorky sort of chemistry in this trailer, but whatever the reason, there seems to be something positively alluring about this film. Plus? The Crimson Bolt carries a hefty wrench. Super hits theaters on April 1, 2011. [via moviefone ]

Super If you have listened to my guest spot on the Super edition of The Dark of the Matinee's TIFF podcast, Wicked Little Town , then you already know I am quite fond of James Gunn's latest film. If you have not had a chance to check out the podcast yet then I highly recommend you give it a spin. The Mad Hatter was lucky enough to score a nice interview with James Gunn after our screening of his [...]

We are at the halfway point of TIFF and it has been another interesting year. As there is still plenty of festival left to go I will keep this post brief. I just wanted to bring your attention to a recent podcast I took part in over at The Dark of the Matinee blog. The Mad Hatter and I briefly discussed the new Rainn Wilson and Ellen Page film Super which had its premier at TIFF a few days ago. You can listen to the podcast here .

Λόγω καθυστερημένων διακοπών δεν πολυπήρα χαμπάρι το χαμό και το hype γύρω από το Inception , οπότε θα προχωρήσω κατευθείαν στο ψαχνό, τη χαρά του κ.Κιμούλη δηλαδή: Ο DiCaprio ξαναζεί το Νησί των Καταραμένων μόνο που εδώ πρόκειται για το Νησί των Ονείρων. Η σύγκριση των δύο ρόλων είναι αναπόφευκτη και αν μου έλεγαν ότι έχει καπαρωμένη μια υποψηφιότητα για φέτος, θα στοιχημάτιζα με ευκολία ότι δε θα'ταν για αυτή του την ερμηνεία. Ο Joseph Gordon-Levitt είναι η ήρεμη δύναμη της ταινίας, καταφέρνει να σταθεί ισάξια στο πλευρό του Leo χωρίς [...]

Filed under: The Hit List As the "MTV generation" has slowly but surely taken over Hollywood, music geeks have become as common on the big screen as they are in the world's universities, blogs and coffee shops. In the movies, they come in all shapes and sizes -- from the superfan to the pretentious snob to the music-obsessed loner -- but there's a little bit of [...]

Back to the blogging grind, thanks to all for the well wishes. It was a great trip, good food, good people, etc. Inception In 2005 Christopher Nolan attempted to change the way most people viewed both summer blockbusters and comic books with his film Batman Begins . Nolan used that film to remind us that not all summer blockbusters had to be mindless affairs. It is possible to have a summer movie that offered both [...]

" Inception " made its midnight premiere last night at midnight to crowded theaters, with fans flocking to see Christopher Nolan's newest thriller. "Inception" is said to be a thriller based on a team of specialists hired to steal from a person's subconscious. Moviegoers shelled out a total of $3,000,000 for the first run of the movie last night, which only had a run of 2,200. From the trailer, it sounds like [...]

As today is the annual Canada Day holiday, I thought I would offer up a Canadian playlist of sorts for all the non-Canadians who frequent this blog. While it would take forever to highlight all the great films that come out of this country, I opted to highlight a few of my favourites. I recommend renting any of the following movies if you want to feel like an honorary Canadian for a day. Hard Core Logo [...]

Filed under: Music Appreciation These days, Ellen Page finds out about new music the old-fashioned way: word-of-mouth. "I don't put nearly as much effort into finding good music as I used to," the Oscar-nominated actress admits . Fortunately, Cillian Murphy -- her co-star in Christopher Nolan's new thriller, ' Inception ' -- gave her a copy of Bon Iver 's 'For Emma, Forever Ago.' Predictably, she "listened to it nonstop."
