Escape manages to open with the biggest “what the hell“ moment in the entire series, showing our present day (well 70s present day) earth where a ship crashlands that looks oddly familiar. Three astronauts exit, but when they take of their helmets the obvious music cue just makes it even stranger to look at three apes in space uniforms and wonder what the hell just happened.

The sequel to Planet of the Apes has more than one problem, but the biggest is that it just looks like a bad science fiction movie. Interestingly the first movie while looking considerably dated, featuring camera movements and storytelling techniques that would not resonate with nowadays audience does not feel cheap or bad and holds our interest.

Roland in search for a new studio

Universal has finally given a clear “no” to The Dark Tower after pushing back the film date. Similar to At the mountains of Madness (intended to be directed by Guillermo Del Toro) the ambitious project was scrapped due to budget reasons – and who can fault them when you have exciting 200 million dollar adaptions of:

The Dark Knight Rises Teaser Poster (UPDATE: Trailer coming soon)

Wow I didn’t think it would be out already, but Warner Brothers is already gearing up delivering the Teaser Poster for The Dark Knight Rises.

Update:  rumours about the Teaser being attached to Harry Potter seem to be true and according to collider we will see the HD version very soon (apparently the Teaser has already leaked in bad quality online but I think I’ll wait for glorious HD presentation and not spoil the fun).

Holy cast reunion Batman!

When Gary Oldman said that the script of The Dark Knight Rises would bring the story full circle the speculations started to rise.
