Literally. As in, there's a runaway train loaded with hazardous materials on the loose -- says co-star Rosario Dawson: "We're not just talking about a train; we're talking about a missile, the size of the Chrysler Building!" -- and only Denzel and Capt. Fine can stop it.
At least Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse have an answer to one question. Access Hollywood brings a first glimpse at "The New Man in Charge," the 12-minute, DVD-only Lost epilogue that promises to tie up a few loose ends, and fans of Dharma-based food products are sure to be excited. Click ahead to watch.
In a world where Harry Potter films come out almost annually and all five Twilight movies will be released in a span of less than five years, will the leisurely Chronicles of Narnia series seem left in the dust?
What would happen if Glitter, Showgirls and Nine had a baby -- and that baby was raised by Cher and Stanley Tucci's character from The Devil Wears Prada? The trailer for Burlesque finds out.
After months of the nuanced, carefully reported reality brought to us by Apple Action News, there is a new animated-news sheriff in town. Look no further than the Lindsay Lohan saga introduced today by NMA News, a like-minded Asian media enterprise that might have just shattered the mold for CGI journalism. Trust me: However sick you think you are of Lindsay Lohan, you really must see this.
Mad Men spoiler-phobes and Matthew Weiner, avert your eyes. AMC -- the network which airs Mad Men, for what it's worth -- has released a 2-minute sneak peak at Sunday's all-new episode ("The Good News") that is sure to cause the show's creator much consternation. After all, it discusses Don's previously revealed holiday travel plans in greater detail, the traffic patterns to LaGuardia airport and reminds everyone that Harry Crane is kind of a jerk. Click ahead and you won't be able to wear white while watching on Sunday.
If The Expendables' "R" rating for "strong action and bloody violence throughout, and for some language" weren't enough to convince you of its red-meat goriness, perhaps this latest bit of marketing will. Lionsgate has released a hella violent clip from the Sylvester Stallone action throwback to MySpace -- MySpace! -- and if it's a taste of what you can expect, get ready for burned-alive bad guys and Jason Statham wearing cool sunglasses.
What happens when you cast two of Hollywood's prettiest actors -- Ryan Phillippe and Taylor Kitsch -- as hard-bitten war photographers chronicling impoverished black South Africans? With The Bang Bang Club, we're about to find out.
Man, Tina Fey hasn't even gotten to enjoy a whole 24 hours of viral video stardom (stemming from her 1990s bank commercial shot in a loft stolen from a Lisa Loeb music video) before Paul Rudd came along to steal her thunder. He even mined the exact same comedic angle: an unearthed "before they were stars" clip that's an awkward, fascinating time capsule of Clinton-era fashion choices.
Incoming, and BOOM: The new teaser trailer for the remake of Don't Be Afraid of the Dark will make a big, scary crater in the landscape of your sluggish Tuesday morning. In fact, it should probably be more like, Don't Be Afraid of Spilling Your Coffee When You Jump In the Dark That's Not Really Dark Because It's Pushing 10 A.M. But Still. I have no idea what else to say about -- whoa, was that Katie Holmes?
Every time 30 Rock flashes back to Liz Lemon's embarassing past, we know the writers are drawing from Tina Fey's own pre-glam early days. Still, who knew that just as Liz Lemon had an embarrassing 1-800-OK-FACE commercial that was eventually unearthed, so too does Fey have her own ad of shame?
At the TCA panel for the new ABC show Mr. Sunshine, a television reporter without Google decided to ask star Matthew Perry what his former Friend David Schwimmer was doing: "All the Friends are cooking along pretty well these days except it seems for David Schwimmer. We don't see him. Where is he?" Directing a moody familial drama that will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, that's where!
Gaspar Noé's latest film Enter the Void has been called both a "technical masterpiece" and "unwatchable" -- and that's just here at Movieline. But at least it lets you know what to expect right up front with an already notorious opening-title sequence that has melted thousands of viewers' brains (or at least their monitors) since first appearing online last spring. And now, as if this summer hasn't tested your endurance enough, someone has gone and bundled both the opening and closing credits in one convenient, head-splitting bundle. Got 143 seconds?
The gore geeks over at Bloody Disgusting have managed to get their hands on the eight minute clip of Piranha 3D that showed off-site last week at Comic-Con and it's. . .well, it's bloody disgusting. The footage is a shaky bootleg, but the gore comes through loud and clear, as does its rampant nudity, so NSFW is an understatement. But if you like blood and boobs, in that order, this is clearly the movie for you. Take a look after the jump before the lawyers make them take it down.
The best new release in a super-congested week deserves all the support it can get. With that, I re-introduce Movieline's chief film critic Stephanie Zacharek with a few words about the Kevin Kline/Paul Dano-starring, NYC-dreaming, zinger-flinging Jonathan Ames adaptation The Extra Man. Take it away, Stephanie!
