The new trailer for Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim, which might be the summer blockbuster we’re looking forward to most at LIAS.

Tom Cruise, Morgan Freeman & Olga Kurylenko sci-fi thriller

Oblivion opens on April 19, 2013 and also stars Morgan […]

It sounds like a genius idea: Reinvent stuffy, intellectual Sherlock Holmes as a depraved, brilliant, rakish, martial-arts expert, cast Robert Downey Jr (Chaplin meets Iron Man!) and hire an actual actress, instead of a hot chick who can recite lines, to play the love interest! Finally, hire Brit Guy Ritchie to turn this puppy into […]
