Matthew Chernov SPOILER ALERT: Do not read until you’ve seen the film!Director Adam Wingard’s “Godzilla vs. Kong,” the latest entry in the long-running Godzilla franchise, takes the reptilian kaiju king in some bold new directions, and offers many spectacular sights that have never been seen before in a Godzilla movie.

There is a lot to talk about when it comes to “Godzilla vs. Kong.” You can call it a popcorn blockbuster.

Godzilla vs. Kong is out, and MonsterVerse fans will be disappointed to learn that there's no post-credits scene.

Godzilla: King of the Monsters,” a film darker than a Russian wake.Running time: 113 minutes. Rated PG-13 (intense sequences of creature violence/destruction and brief language).I was a bit concerned at the start of the new one, though.

Warner Bros. has been sitting on the film rights to cult cartoon series “ThunderCats” for over a decade and it looks like there is finally movement on their long-in-development feature film.

EXCLUSIVE: As his new film Godzilla Vs. Kong opens Wednesday in U.S. theaters and on HBO Max after turning up a Hollywood film pandemic record $123 million gross in 38 overseas markets last weekend, director Adam Wingard is set to direct Thundercats. That is a big scale feature based on an animated TV series that ran from 1985-89 by Rankin Bass, and several other iterations, comic books and merchandse.

“Film isn’t about storytelling or empathy; it’s about cool shit happening,” is an amusing, facetious tweet that recently went viral. Sure, it’s a jokey, flippant sentiment, but there’s also a kernel of truth (and an ironic one at that) that also applies to Legendary Picture’s “Godzilla Vs.

Being able to make shameless creature thrills explode off of the screen takes a distinct eye and an unabashed imagination. Ever since Gareth Edwards roared into the monster genre with “Godzilla” back in 2014, every subsequent entry in Legendary’s MonsterVerse has felt like an effort to recapture that same magic.

While basically all trailers for the upcoming “Godzilla vs. Kong” have focused on the titular showdown between Godzilla and King Kong, Kong using one of Godzilla’s dorsal fins as an axe, and a ton of buildings being destroyed, the latest trailer also teased the appearance of a very special and robotic guest, reinforcing the idea that Mechagodzilla will make its debut in the new MonsterVerse film.

Face/Off.The Godzilla vs.

A little more than a month ago, it was reported that director Adam Wingard and his longtime collaborator, writer Simon Barrett, were teaming up for a direct sequel to the 1997 John Woo action film, “Face/Off.” At the time of the report, it seemed as if the film’s stars, Nicolas Cage and John Travolta, were not returning. And honestly, that would be a major tragedy, as 95% of what makes “Face/Off” so special are the performances by those two actors.

One of filmdom’s weirdest blockbuster action thrillers will be getting a sequel, nearly a quarter-century after it first hit theatres.

“Face/Off” is probably one of the best examples of a film that is undeniably bad, in the sense that the story is ridiculous, the acting is campy, and the script is full of cringe. But in that badness is some pretty great John Woo action and two performances that have gone down in history as a couple of masterclasses in chewing scenery.

Did you just finish redoing your movie release date calendar for 2021? Sorry, guess again. The latest changes come from Warner Bros.

Godzilla vs. Kong’s first trailer is out! And while the pandemic took over the whole world and put a damper on everything, there’s no stopping the two monsters.

There is rumblings tonight that Legendary’s fourthquel Godzilla vs. Kong, scheduled to be released by Warner Bros on the big screen, is in talks to head to HBO Max. Surprise, surprise.

Ideas are contagious, like a virus, Christopher Nolan posited, coldly and conceptually, back in 2010 with “Inception.” In 2020, filmmaker Amy Seimetz takes that a few steps further with an emotional edge and the presciently eerie idea of infectious diseases that will spread and kill you as thoughts. In her feature-length sophomore feature, “She Dies Tomorrow,” characters aren’t overtaken by the belief that everyone, or even several people, will die— just themselves.

Ever since Dan Stevens starred in cult-hit “The Guest” back in 2014, fans have been dying to know if a sequel is ever going to happen.

Dan Stevens may have stolen everyone’s hearts with his show-stopping performance in “Eurovision Song Contest: The Story Of Fire Saga,” but his first big role after departing “Downton Abbey” was in the chilling thriller “The Guest.” Though the film wasn’t very successful at the box office, Stevens says hope is not lost for a “The Guest” sequel, and there have been talks about continuing the story.

King Kong and Godzilla as all set to lock horn in the upcoming sci-fi action film Godzilla vs Kong. Directed by Adam Wingard, the film is the fourth entry in Legendary's monster universe following Godzilla (2004), Kong: Skull Island (2017) and Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019).
