We recently found out that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt received a release date delay, pushing it back to May 19, 2015.

We're pretty happy with this news, aren't you? Read More »
While we're all patiently waiting for the second half of AMC's The Walking Dead season five, with new episodes in 2015 that will surely answer plenty of questions about the series, one of the show's stars, Norman Reedus, took part in an "Ask Me Anything" discussion on Reddit this week.

Say his name three times and he is most likely going to appear right? Well we are guessing we have finally said it enough times because it seems like Beetlejuice is about to make his reappearance. The original movie, which debuted in 1988 and starred Michael Keaton and Wionna Ryder, might be getting the sequel treatment, at least if director Tim Burton has anything to say about it. Read More »

When Marvel announced its phase 3 movie schedule, we couldn't help but notice that Guardians of the Galaxy 2 was set for a 2017 release, which just so happens to be a year before the 2018 release of Avengers: Infinity Wars - Part 1. Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe are well aware of crossover events taking place with characters and plotlines, so should we assume that the Guardians sequel is a prequel to the first Infinity War film? After all, the character Thanos (played by Josh Brolin) is involved in both plot lines, so it would make sense. According to writer/director James Gunn, though, his Guardians franchise is not going to be based around the Avengers - so don't hold your breath for this to be some kind of prequel!

Like any other human, Chris Pine is intimidated by Meryl Streep. Talking 'Into The Woods' on 'The Tonight Show', the 'Star Trek 3' star revealed that it's tough work going into a recording booth after Meryl Streep has made everybody else within hearing distance cry. After it was revealed that 'Fast & Furious' Justin Lin would be the Star Trek 3 director, 'Horrible Bosses 2' actor Pine talked to Jimmy Fallon about his dad, being a third generation actor and two dimensional characters... before the erstwhile Jack Ryan/Captain Kirk took part in a challenging game against Fallon called BattleShots.

Filmmaker Justin Lin is best known for directing multiple installments of the Fast & Furious film franchise and is working on some season 2 episodes of HBO's True Detective, but in 0216 we'll see what he can do in deep space. After some drama surrounding Roberto Orci and the new Star Trek 3 movie project, Lin has been named as Orci's replacement as the director. We previously reported that Orci would remain a big influence on the film in a producer position, but Lin will be the man in charge, taking over for J.J. Abrams, who directed the first two films in the rebooted franchise. Read More »
Game of Thrones creator and author George RR Martin has offered to screen the James Franco and Seth Rogen comedy The Interview, and in the process blasted the "corporate cowardice" displayed by Sony for bowing to North Korean hackers wishes by not showing the movie (which centers around a CIA Kim Jong-Un assassination plot). With fortuitous timing - as HBO released a blink-and-you'll miss it teaser for Game of Thrones Season 5 featuring glimpses of Jon Snow, Arya Stark, Tyrion Lannister and Cersei Lannister - Martin slammed Sony, Regal and AMC and said that the situation was similar to that of Charlie Chaplin and his Hitler-mocking The Great Dictator.

We have some great updates on the new characters from Star Wars: The Force Awakens. According to a leaked photo of new action figure toys based on the movie's stars, we have a pretty great look at John Boyega and Daisy Ridley's characters, as well as Chewbacca and the ball-droid, B-88. On top of these characters that we already knew about, a new one is featured, wearing an updated Stormtrooper mask, but an outdated uniform. The height of this character also makes us reconsider some casting rumors about Gwendoline Christie of Game of Thrones, who is speculated to portray Captain Phasma! (SPOILERS to follow) Read More »
