New "Ant-Man" Poster Has Been Released!

Marvel has released a new poster for the upcoming "Ant-Man" movie and while it's not a breathtaking poster, it is still pretty cool. You can see all of the main characters from the movie, including Michael Douglas as Hank Pym, Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne, and Corey Stoll as the villain Darren Cross (aka Yellowjacket). We can also see Paul Rudd as both Scott Lang and his superhero alter-ego, Ant-Man. If you look closely at the Marvel sign you will see a miniature version of our hero, which I thought was a pretty neat thing to add. Also, the city and helicopters in the background do a great job at highlighting the theme that this movie will carry, which is that of a heist film. Overall, it's the type of poster we have come to expect from Marvel movies, but that is not necessarily a bad thing.

Guillermo del Toro: The Man Behind the Monsters

"Since childhood, I've been faithful to monsters. I have been saved and absolved by them. Because monsters, I believe, are patron saints of our blissful imperfection. They allow and embody the possibility of failing and living." Those were the words that Guillermo del Toro spoke after winning his first Golden Globe for his directorial work on The Shape of Water . It was a speech that I connected with and understood completely. With the Oscars coming up, I want to say a few words on what Guillermo del Toro and his films mean to me and why I am rooting for him to win the Best Director award at the Academy Awards. Growing up, my parents never really censored what my brothers and I saw on TV or at the movies. As a result, I was exposed to many of the great horror films at an extremely young age. Slashers were a constant in our home. Despite how much they scared me, they also fascinated me. Slashers were the norm for...

Despite Christian’s possessive and jealous nature, the pair appears to be happy until their vacation is cut short as a result of a break-in at Christian’s company.

For one, Christian’s constant hovering over Anastasia doesn’t sit well with her since it gets in the way of her job and personal life.

First Teaser Trailer for Pixar's "The Good Dinosaur"

Image via GalleryHip The first teaser trailer for Disney-Pixar's The Good Dinosaur has been released and it hit all the right notes. As most teaser trailers, this one didn't show too much. In fact, the first half of the trailer is spent looking at meteors in space. Yet about halfway through, we are asked what would have happened if the meteor that killed the dinosaurs never actually hit the planet, and then we get our first look at dinosaurs from the film as they casually look up from their food to see the meteor shoot by over their heads. After that scene, we are shown a bunch of action shots from Arlo and Spot's (our protagonists) adventure. There is no dialogue in this teaser and we never get a clear shot of our heroes. In fact, the one real shot we get of them comes at the very end and it comes in the form of a side shot as they are running through a mountain. But even though this teaser is very limited, it kept me smiling all throughout it. More importantly t...
