The holidays are officially upon us and that means a slew of new movies are on the way, however, it’s not very often that we get two movies from the same director. Not only does Steven Spielberg have War Horse due out in theaters for Christmas, but The Adventures of Tintin, too. Based on three of Hergé’s iconic comic books, The Adventures of Tintin follows the young journalist and his loyal dog Snowy. When Tintin buys a model of an old ship called the Unicorn, he attracts some unwanted attention. After Tintin refuses to sell his ship to a pair of overeager buyers, he discovers the Unicorn happens to be…

Not many movie directors have the courage or talent to bring an unconventional, passive aggressive protagonist who audiences can ultimately relate to without judging them to the screen. But filmmaker Jason Reitman did just that with his new comedy drama ‘Young Adult,’ which is now in limited theatrical release and is set to expand wide on Friday, December 16, 2011. While on the red carpet of the New York premiere of the film on December 8 at the Ziegelfd Theatre, the helmer and producer took the time to discuss with us the process of shooting the movie. ‘Young Adult’ follows Mavis Gary (played by Charlize Theron), an emotionally immature 37-year-old…

All caught up on Breaking Bad? No? First off, how dare you? But, more importantly, watch out because this piece is packed with spoilers! Earlier this evening Breaking Bad baddie, Giancarlo Esposito, showed off how unlike Gus Fring he really is, enjoying a nice night out with his daughter at the premiere of The Adventures of Tintin. Naturally, after Gus’ shocking demise, the obligatory question had to be asked – is that really the end of Gus? While Esposito artfully dodged the question, he does note that “no one dies on Breaking Bad” and that Gus will “definitely be back” perhaps “to put a final stamp on the series’ ending.”…

My inner fan girl takes over! Earlier this evening, Steven Spielberg took to the red carpet for his upcoming release, The Adventures of Tintin. Keep an eye out for the Tintin coverage closer to the film’s December 21st release, but for now, we’ve got something for all you Jurassic Park diehards out there. As Jurassic Park is my favorite film of all time – yes, you can certainly quote me on that – it should come as no surprise that I legitimately wake up to the roar of Spielberg’s T-rex every morning. After schvitzing quite a bit as Spielberg made his way closer and closer to my spot on the…

ShockYa’s Joe Belcastro was on the scene in Orlando, Florida for the press event held at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, celebrating the newly released “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2″ on Warner Bros. home video platform (DVD, Blu-Ray, Digital Download, Ultraviolet Digital Download). About twenty members from the cast & crew – including director David Yates, Rupert Grint, producers David Barron and David Heyman along with an assortment of other cast members – all descended upon the red carpeted spectacle this past weekend. Below are red carpet snippets along with photos from the festive three-day event. And you’ll even notice a blooper or two as you’ll…

Contagion begins with Beth Emhoff (Gwyneth Paltrow), a woman on her way back from a business trip in Hong Kong. She isn’t feeling too well and opts to point a finger at the usual culprit, jet lag. However, just days later her symptoms intensify, she has a seizure and passes away. This is no common cold or even a freak contraction of the bird flu or contact with anthrax; it’s a new type of virus, one with the capacity to wipe out millions. Apparently the subject matter of the film didn’t disturb the cast too much because a nice chunk of the gang shook some hands on the red carpet…

A Japanese fan posted this very cool red carpet video featuring Robert, Kristen and Taylor during the premiere of the film based on the best-selling book series by Stephenie Meyer “Twilight” by director Catherine Hardwicke and starring Kristen Stewart (Panic Room), Robert Pattinson (Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix), Elizabeth Reaser (The Family Stone), Nikki Reed (Thirteen), Peter Facinelli (The Scorpion King), Jackson Rathbone (Hurt), Cam Gigandet (Never Back Down), Billy Burke (Untraceable) and Ashley Greene (Shark). Synopsis: Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) has always been a little bit different, never caring about fitting in with the trendy girls at her Phoenix high school. When her mother remarries and…

I was invited to The Red Carpet Premiere for Robert Hall’s Laid To Rest on Sat. April 18th at the Laellme Grand Theater in Downtown Los Angeles. Most of the major players made an appearance as well as some surprise guests. (Click here for my review of Laid to Rest.) I had an awesome time. The stars were all very cool, especially Thomas Dekker, who rocked the night with a very cool blood splattered tie. (Told you I liked it Thomas!) “Laid to Rest” by director Robert Hall stars Bobbi Sue Luther (Extreme Movie), Kevin Gage, Lena Headey (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles), Sean Whalen and Thomas Dekker (A Nightmare…
