ShockYa recently reported on the upcoming “Ferris Bueller” campaign being launched by Honda. The campaign, starring Matthew Broderick (of course), are going to launch during the Super Bowl, and everyone seems to be itching to see just how everyone’s favorite hooky-playing student has grown up and just why he’s selling Hondas. According to the ShockYa article by Perri Nemiroff, Jalopnik the campaign is being directed by “The Hangover” writer/director Todd Phillips, fitting for the Super Bowl. If you want to get a sneak peek as to what the campaign is going to look like, check out this video from Slash Film. The video is only 10 seconds long, but it…

Drama, drama, drama. And no, I’m not referring to the genre. We’ve got folks at odds all throughout the industry. India’s Central Board of Film Certification isn’t happy with the level of nudity in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but David Fincher isn’t willing to make the required cuts, so it looks like Dragon Tattoo will be a no go for India. Similarly, Hungary gave a rather naughty Shame poster the thumbs down. On the other hand, we’ve also got quite a bit of film appreciation floating around out there, namely the nominations for the 84th Academy Awards. Hugo topped the pack with 11 honors while The Artist followed…

Title: Tower Heist Directed By: Brett Ratner Starring: Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Casey Affleck, Alan Alda, Matthew Broderick, Stephen Henderson, Judd Hirsch, Téa Leoni, Michael Peña, Gabourey Sidibe Sometimes formulaic filmmaking isn’t all that bad, especially in the case of a film with an outlandish plot like Tower Heist. It basically plays out as you’d expect with a few good gags along the way and some bumbling attempts to snag the cash, but if you’re simply looking for an enjoyable hour and 45 minutes, what else do you need? There’s certainly nothing too deep about this one, but courtesy of colorful characters, some solid laughs and a festive Thanksgiving backdrop,…

Title: Margaret Director: Kenneth Lonergan Starring: Anna Paquin, J. Smith-Cameron, Mark Ruffalo, Matt Damon, Jean Reno, Jeannie Berlin, Kieran Culkin, Matthew Broderick,  Kenneth Lonergan, Rosemarie Dewitt, Allison Janney “Margaret,” the first film behind the camera from writer-director Kenneth Lonergan in more than a decade, is a hot mess. Considering its behind-the-scenes wrangling and long road to release, however, that’s not really that surprising. In 2000, Longergan helped bolster the mainstream careers of Laura Linney and Mark Ruffalo with “You Can Count On Me,” the engaging, Oscar-nominated story of a fractured adult sibling relationship. In 2005 he shot his follow-up, “Margaret,” about a troubled high school teenager who witnesses a terrible bus accident…

Title: The Lion King 3D Director: Roger Allers & Rob Minkoff Starring the voices of: James Earl Jones, Matthew Broderick, Jeremy Irons, Johnathan Taylor Thomas, Whoopi Goldberg, Rowan Atkinson, Nathan Lane, Jim Cummings Seventeen years ago, The Lion King roared into theaters and warmed hearts all over the world. It also earned Disney a nice a chunk of change. But apparently they need more. After years of Pixar and CGI, the 3D treatment on the 1994 animation isn’t going to do much. In fact, only two or three scenes effectively make use of the gimmick of the last couple years, which will only get a response from the younger viewers….

Refusing to live his life cowering, he befriends a Princess named Pea and learns to read (rather than eat) books—reveling in stories of knights, dragons and fair maidens. Banished from Mouseworld for being more man than mouse, Despereaux is rescued by another outcast, Roscuro, who also wants…
