Why are Fox and Marvel having a showdown over 'X-Men' and 'The Avengers 2'?

Thu, 23 May 2013 20:40:00 GMT

Ever since the record-annihilating opening weekend of "The Avengers" last year, I've been hearing speculation and questions about whether or not other studios who have the rights to certain Marvel characters would end up trying to strike a deal with Disney and Marvel Studios to include ...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Michael Cera and Alia Shawkat talk about returning to the roles of loving cousins for 'Arrested Development'

Thu, 23 May 2013 06:50:00 GMT

When I first heard about "Arrested Development," the synopsis I read included a description of the relationship between George Michael Bluth (Michael Cera) and Maeby Funke (Alia Shawkat), and my first thought was that it sounded incredibly tasteless and silly. Now, of course, I'd say...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Jordana Brewster talks about holding the family together in 'Furious Six'

Thu, 23 May 2013 03:00:00 GMT

I enjoyed the latest chapter in the "Fast and the Furious" series quite a bit, and part of what's finally won me over wholeheartedly is just how earnestly they handle all of the family stuff in the film. Jordana Brewster plays Mia, the sister of Dominic Toretto, who is now married to...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Justin Bartha and Heather Graham talk about their fates in 'The Hangover Part III'

Wed, 22 May 2013 22:20:00 GMT

Not every interview is easy. In general, I try to treat interviews as real conversations. It's all an illusion, of course. Most real conversations are not arranged weeks earlier by a team of publicists and don't take place in a brightly lit area surrounded by strangers and cameras that you hav...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

New US trailer for Edgar Wright's 'World's End' goes heavy on the spoilers

Wed, 22 May 2013 20:00:00 GMT

Today, Focus Features released the domestic trailer for "The World's End," the latest film by Edgar Wright, and it's far more revelatory than the UK version of the trailer. My guess is that in the UK, it's enough to sell the film on the names of Wright, Simon Pegg, and Nick Frost, but h...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

The Wolfpack gets together one last time to talk about working on 'The Hangover Part III'

Wed, 22 May 2013 06:30:00 GMT

When you go to Vegas to talk about "The Hangover Part III," of course part of your trip has to be a sit-down conversation with The Wolfpack. Already, I am getting hammered with letters and comments from people who seem genuinely angry with me over my review for the film, and one guy ...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Guillermo Del Toro and the 'Pacific Rim' cast explain 'the Drift'

Wed, 22 May 2013 00:25:00 GMT

One of the things I've heard a few people bring up several times when discussing Guillermo Del Toro's new film "Pacific Rim" is the idea that you need to pilots to make the Jaegers work. I've heard people who readily accepted the premise of giant monsters versus giant robots hesitate su...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Portia de Rossi and David Cross get their Funke on again for the return of 'Arrested Development'

Tue, 21 May 2013 23:35:00 GMT

The relationship between Lindsay Bluth Funke and her husband Tobias Funke is one of the strangest parts of "Arrested Development," and rewatching the series again right now, I'm struck once again by how gloriously dysfunctional they are. I think the world of David Cross. "Mr. Sh...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Review: 'The Hangover Part III' breaks new ground as it says good-bye

Tue, 21 May 2013 05:55:00 GMT

When this movie begins in the middle of an over-the-top prison riot in Bangkok that leads to a crazy "Shawshank Redemption" joke, it's the first sign that "The Hangover Part III" is not just business as usual. The first film, written by Jon Lucas & Scott Moore, featured...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured

Paul Walker talks about growing up with the 'Fast and the Furious' franchise

Tue, 21 May 2013 00:35:00 GMT

One of the pleasures of seeing where the "Fast and the Furious" series has arrived is looking back at where it started and measuring just how far everyone's come. Paul Walker is never going to be one of those guys who people talk about in the pantheon of great transformative performe...http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/motion-captured
