Abrams-produced 2008 film Cloverfield.

Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast made a ridiculous amount of money this weekend, so it only makes sense that the studio is considering how to franchise the title into future installments. Speaking to Deadline, Walt Disney Studios’ President of Production Sean Bailey revealed that they’re in the process of exploring possible spinoff and prequel scenarios. The reason that a sequel is likely off the … Continue reading Disney Considering ‘Beauty and the Beast’ Spinoff or Prequel!!!
Synopsis – An adaptation of the Disney fairy tale about a monstrous-looking prince and a young woman who fall in love. My Take – With all their other properties such as Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar and their own Animation studio doing so well, it seems the main branch at Disney has suddenly found themselves becoming fixated on remaking, rebooting, or re-imaging nearly all of their older … Continue reading Beauty and the Beast (2017) Review!!!
One of the most-anticipated films of 2018 is Ava DuVernay’s adaptation of A Wrinkle in Time. DuVernay is an immensely talented director and A Wrinkle in Time is rich source material that has yet to reach the big screen (there was 2003 made-for-TV movie that’s it). The film is described as a “reimaginging” of L’Engle’s novel that follows Meg Murry, her brilliant brother Charles Wallace, … Continue reading First Images from ‘A Wrinkle in Time’ Released as Filming Wraps!!

Disney has quite often had an aversion to making anything in their films overtly political, or presenting something in a way that could incite controversy. That doesn’t mean that controversy doesn’t arise anyway, but by and large throughout Disney’s 90s heyday they offered a very squeaky clean slate. However, while the studio’s films have always offered up heterosexual relationships, those actually making the films have been … Continue reading ‘Beauty and the Beast’: Josh Gad’s Le Fou Will Be Disney’s First-Ever Gay Character!!

Disney’s live-action retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast story is due in theaters in less than a month, and it’s shaping up to be a box office monster.

Either total would give Bill Condon‘s fairy tale film one of the top … Continue reading ‘Beauty and the Beast’ and the Box Office: Disney’s Potential $120 Million Debut!!

Disney has had a lot of success in remaking their animated classics into live action features, but they’re going to have their toughest challenge yet when it comes to Beauty and the Beast.

After EW released a batch of first-look images and details on Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast, the Mouse House dropped the first non-teasery poster for the film.

Though we got a glimpse at some low-resolution images from Disney’s live-action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast earlier this week, the newly released hi-res looks from the studio are simply gorgeous.

While skepticism was more than warranted when Disney began announcing a slew of live-action remakes of its animated classics, the studio’s track record thus far is cause for optimism. Kenneth Branagh’s Cinderella was a lush, delightful riff on the fairy tale; Jon Favreau’s The Jungle Book was jaw-droppingly realistic; and Pete’s Dragon is perhaps the most earnest, least cynical film of the year. So when it comes to 2017’s Beauty and the Beast—no doubt … Continue reading ‘Beauty and the Beast’: Belle Has a New Backstory in Disney’s Live-Action Remake!!

After years of fans clamoring for a Cloverfield sequel, Paramount and J.J. Abrams pulled off a pretty terrific surprise by announcing that an upcoming thriller called Valencia was actually called 10 Cloverfield Lane mere months before its release, adding that it would have a tangental connection to the Abrams-produced 2008 film. 10 Cloverfield Lane, under the direction of Dan Trachtenberg, turned out to be a pretty incredible contained thriller and still stands as one of the … Continue reading ‘God Particle’ Is the Next Film in the ‘Cloverfield’ Universe!!
Synopsis – A disillusioned Confederate army deserter returns to Mississippi and leads a militia of fellow deserters, runaway slaves, and women in an uprising against the corrupt local Confederate government.

A curious piece of casting news has arrived, and while on the surface it may simply seem like two impeccable actors teaming up for a small-scale sci-fi film, it could actually have major franchise ramifications.
