I just came across an excellent interview with my fave film composer Danny Elfman, who discusses his film score for Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland! I’ve been a fan of Danny Elfman since Pee Wee’s Big Adventure, which was his first film score and Tim Burton’s first film.
Here’s a great quote from the [...]

I’m a child of the ’80s, so of course I have to share the first trailer for The A-Team movie with you! Here’s what I had to say about it in a tweet for @theanimeblog:
“Just saw the trailer for the new A-Team movie. It alternates between awesome and horrible. You’ll see: http://bit.ly/7j5GOO”

The typography is weak and the metal/stone texture doesn’t work for me either. But what I really dislike about [...]

After work yesterday, I raced home to watch the first trailer for James Cameron’s Avatar in HD. I’ve been eagerly waiting Mr. Cameron’s return to an original science fiction story (with photo-real creatures and enviros in 3D), so you could imagine my excitement over the trailer. Well, it did not disappoint, and in fact exceeded [...]

Oh-oh…trouble for Watchmen? Probably not…just Warner Bros. making a big payout because of legal issues. Sigh.
“A federal judge has denied a Warner Bros motion to dismiss 20th Century Fox’s legal battle over the rights to develop, produce and distribute a film based on the graphic novel Watchmen. This is huge Hollywood news because Warner Bros [...]
