The week that was for Transformers 2

1 Comments | Posted on Thursday, 2 July 2009 by Will

Well, by now, pretty much everyone has seen Transformers 2, and if you haven’t, there are still plenty of sessions across the country to park you butt for 2 and a half hours and enjoy the chaos that is 40 odd alien robots beating each other up. But what will the film ultimately be remembered for? The eye popping action sequences? Megan fox straddling a motor bike? Or the phenomenal opening week it’s had? TF2 opened nationally on June 24, and in its opening day it took just under $2.6 ... Find out more...   |   1 Comments

What we thought of the new Harry Potter movie...

2 Comments | Posted on Thursday, 2 July 2009 by Jess

It's had mixed reviews from inside these four walls that make up this office. Some people liked it, some people thought it was boring and were restless through the 150 minutes, others thought it was just like the book. There were a couple of comments that it will be for 'fans only' and that nothing happens until the last 20 minutes, but seriously, I don't care. I'm a fan, I'll be watching it the second I can, I'm annoyed that I missed it yesterday but if I had a ... Find out more...   |   2 Comments

Sam Raimi will live in the blessed pantheon of those film makers that get their big break by funding their very own schlock horror flick. For Raimi, it was EVIL DEAD, a story about a group of friends whom take a holiday in a secluded cabin in the middle of the woods and accidentally bring back to life and evil curse which inhabits various entities around them, and stalks them all to death. The film went on sprout two sequels, video games, comics, Bruce Campbell’s career and a loyal fan base that... Find out more...   |   0 Comments

Are we getting tired of the pre-quells and three –quells, and hoping studios would come up with something new? Not when Ice Age 3 is this FUNNY! Okay, so this is primarily a kid’s film, but as you well know, there are always some sneaky adult flavoured jokes worked in to keep the parents interested. And Ice Age 3 does deliver. We have all the same loveable characters in Ice Age 3 and a couple of new ones. Namely, Buck, voiced perfectly by the awesome Simon Pegg, who is a swash buckling one ...

2 Comments | Posted on Tuesday, 30 June 2009 by Ben

Arriving on the red carpet in a outfit made of metal and with a horse in toe, it was clear this premiere was not going to be your normal run of the mill night. Grabbing the attention of the waiting media, Bruno, the gay Austrian fashion reporter was mobbed upon his arrival for the Australian premiere at Sydney's State Theatre. While it's hard to talk about everything in the film because of the nature of the footage and MA15+ rating - if you're expecting it, it's probably there. I foun... Find out more...   |   2 Comments

BANDSLAM-SLAMMIN' OR NOT?

0 Comments | Posted on Thursday, 25 June 2009 by Claire

Well, if you’re a fan of High School Musical’s Vanessa Hudgens, then I guess you should go and see Bandslam. This is a film definitely for your mainstream tweens and younger even though it’s a film about a bunch of misfit highschool musicians. I know I am not the target audience for this one, but I did feel this could have been a really great edgy indie type film for teens. It falls short unfortunately and sells out and I think that it has been entirely miscast. Sell out you say. Yep,... Find out more...   |   0 Comments

He's back! Sacha Baron Cohen is coming back to a big screen, this time in the form of a gay Austrian television presenter. Following the huge success of Borat and his hilarious skits as Ali G, Cohen has decided to branch out and really push the boundaries this time round. The film is sure to either make you laugh out loud so much it hurts or get up and walk out. Shock value is what he relies on.

ROBERT PATTINSON-IS THIS GUY HIP OR WHAT?

6 Comments | Posted on Tuesday, 23 June 2009 by Claire

Does anyone really care that Robert Pattinson “apparently” had a “brush with death”. It has been reported that he was knocked over by a cab the other day in New York. Unlike his on screen character Edward the immortal, he emerged with a grazed hip….not surprising, have you seen the pictures of him all glistened up and shirtless for the scene in Italy where he walks into the sun? He’s quite thin. He does have nice abs though….hmm. He was just included on people Mag’s Hottest Bachelor List. T... Find out more...   |   6 Comments
