Some movies are just made for each other. Whether they share the same theme, ideas or settings, some just go hand in hand for a pleasurable watch. As a passionate lover of film, I’ve decided to combine some of my favorites for your viewing pleasure. Vampire’s Kiss/American Psycho (THE BREAKDOWN DOUBLE) As the title suggests, this is indeed the perfect ‘Breakdown Double Bill.’ Both movies follow wealthy businessmen who begin to lose their grip on sanity in the concrete jungle of New York. Two brilliant performances by Nicolas Cage and Christian Bale, who lead their respective titles with extroverted madness.…

If there’s one thing fans and critics can agree on over Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, it’s that Ben Affleck made a great Batman.

IT has languished in development hell for a number of years now and although initial reaction to the the proposed remake was mixed, the eventual hiring of director Cary Fukunaga reinstalled hope with many fans. We were then given our Pennywise in the form of Will Poulter, a younger, left field choice which may have developed into a spellbindingly memorable performance which the horror genre desperately needs. However, on memorial day weekend 2015, Cary Fukunaga dropped out and the whole thing fell apart quicker than a stack of cards. All that was left were a few pieces of fascinating concept…

Unless you’ve been living underneath a rock for the past couple of months, I think it’s safe to assume that we’ve all heard about the Ultimate Edition to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which will be released exclusively on Blu Ray. However, rumor has it that Warner Brothers are now considering releasing the R-Rated version into cinemas closer to the time of the Blu Rays release. Boasting 30 more minutes of additional footage, with enhanced scenes of violence, Warner Brothers hope that this might be enough to push the movie past the $1 billion dollar mark. BvS is…

Speaking with IGN, Zack Snyder recently revealed another interesting scene which was cut from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice due to its dark nature. Addressing the ‘issue’ of why Superman didn’t hear Martha Kent’s cries for help with his superpowered hearing, he had this to say … “I think all the way – to me, from Metropolis to Smallville is probably just on the edge of his range of hearing” he explained. “Also the clutter of the city makes it difficult as well.” He then went on further to explain: “We had a scene that we cut from the…

Yes, that’s right. Dave Bautista has recently confirmed that he has joined the cast of Blade Runner 2. In the past few years Dave Bautista’s career has been going from strength to strength.
