Mark Wahlberg Confirms He’s “Not Attached” to ‘Uncharted’ Movie!!!

After years of directors coming on and dropping off the Uncharted movie, Shawn Levy is ready to start filming next year. Sadly for Mark Wahlberg fans, it won’t be with him. The actor was once attached to play Nathan Drake, a self-proclaimed descendant of historic explorer Sir Francis Drake and a bit of a rogue adventurer himself. That was back when David O. Russell (American … Continue reading Mark Wahlberg Confirms He’s “Not Attached” to ‘Uncharted’ Movie!!!

Expect More Grimlock, Dinobots in ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’!!

One of the biggest crowd-pleasers in Michael Bay’s Transformers: Age of Extinction was the arrival of the fan-favorite Dinobots and their leader, Grimlock. But you can’t just introduce a fire-breathing T. rex robot and then let him walk off into the sunset with his Dinobot pals. No, you need to bring him back for Transformers: The Last Knight, which is exactly what Bay, Hasbro, and Paramount … Continue reading Expect More Grimlock, Dinobots in ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’!!

‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Featurette CeIebrates IMAX & Michael Bay’s Collaborative History!!! Check It Out!!

Whatever anyone might say about the substance of Michael Bay‘s films, the man is undeniably an auteur of sorts. His films have a very specific look that has influenced hundreds of filmmakers, especially in the action and science-fiction genres. In some cases, his acolytes seemingly cop his style verbatim but they simply don’t have the bombast that Bay’s movies do. When his movies are good, such … Continue reading ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Featurette CeIebrates IMAX & Michael Bay’s Collaborative History!!! Check It Out!!

Deepwater Horizon (2016) Review!!!

Synopsis – A story set on the offshore drilling rig Deepwater Horizon, which exploded during April 2010 and created the worst oil spill in U.S. history. My Take – I have always enjoyed director Peter Berg‘s films, even the not-so-well received films like Battleship & The Rundown. Hancock, The Kingdom and of course, Lone Survivor are among my favorites from his work. Here he reunites with Lone Survivor … Continue reading Deepwater Horizon (2016) Review!!!

‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Tackling Nazis, Mini-Dinobots, and King Arthur!!

As if a story based on giant sentient machine lifeforms who can morph into a variety of Earth-based vehicles and transform in order to engage in unending combat wasn’t insane enough, it seems that the writers of Transformers: The Last Knight have decided to include two more genre favorites: Nazis and dinosaurs. Now, granted, Transformers: Age of Extinction did manage to sneak the fan-favorite Dinobots into the script, though … Continue reading ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Tackling Nazis, Mini-Dinobots, and King Arthur!!

Rumors have swirled recently that director Michael Bay’s fifth Transformers film might be dealing with Arthurian legend, and now it appears we have proof. Mashable reports that the film has cast actor Liam Garrigan to play the character of King Arthur in the movie, meaning audiences are either in for a lengthy flashback sequence or this Transformers movie is going straight-up reverse A Kid in … Continue reading ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Casts Its King Arthur!!

While it’s yet to be confirmed that Ken Watanabe will return for Michael Bay’s Transformers: The Last Knight, we now know that his Autobot character Drift will definitely be back in style. In fact, it’ll be a different style altogether than the one he sported in Bay’s Transformers: Age of Extinction. In that picture, the samurai-styled transforming robot appeared as a black-and-blue Bugatti Veyron; not only has his color scheme been traded … Continue reading ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’: Drift Returns in a New Tricked-Out Ride!!

‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Introduces an Unlikely Hero!!

Michael Bay’s Transformers franchise has certainly had some colorful characters over the years, though not all of them have been well received by moviegoing audiences. Classic characters like Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Bumblebee have been remarkably successful while clunkers like Mudflap and Skids are better off forgotten. So it’s to Transformers: The Last Knight that we turn our cautiously optimistic eye to see which Autobots and Decepticons Bay will rollout … Continue reading ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Introduces an Unlikely Hero!!

Michael Bay Reveals ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Villain!!

It’s hard to ignore the things Bay gets right. When the guy is at his imaginative best, his set pieces are thrilling, furious with action and digital precision that is dazzling, even caked in his need for empty, sentimentalized heroics and a love for the military that ignores the institution’s rather brazen, um, issues. Indeed, the further Bay is from sappy, right-wing politics, the better, … Continue reading Michael Bay Reveals ‘Transformers: The Last Knight’ Villain!!
