The Art of Getting By Movie Review By: SandwichJohn I was able to attend an advance screening of this film earlier this week and going into the film I wasn't expecting much. Didn't really know a whole lot about the movie other than Charlie ( Freddie Highmore ) from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was in the film, and Emma Roberts  was also starring in the film. I was pleasantly surprised by the film and the performance that Freddie Highmore pulled off. The movie itself had that independent film feel to it, camera moving in motion with the actors and just a gritty feel to it. I could have seen this film come out the same time as the classic 80's film like Some Kind Of Wonderful and Less Than Zero . But not up to the same level as the previous films mentioned. The story is a coming of age film that we all have seen before. A teenager slacker with no life ambitions or goals in life. Until he meets the girl of his dreams and then everything is game. Freddie High...

Hugh Jackman is in talks to star Universal and Working Title’s big-screen musical adaptation of Les Miserables , to be directed by The King’s Speech helmer Tom Hooper. If a deal makes, Jackman would play Jean Valjean , the man who steals bread to feed his sister and spends the ensuing years in prison (or trying to escape it) while also becoming the guardian of a young woman named Cosette, all against the backdrop of the French Revolution. William Nicholson wrote the script. The story is based on the Victor Hugo book but best known to millions as one of the longest-running musicals around. Les Miz, as it’s lovably known, would be the first time that Jackman, a singer and dancer with a Tony Award for his role in The Boy from Oz, would perform on the big screen. The actor was scheduled to reprise his role as Wolverine in a sequel that was to have shot later this year, but the lack of a director on the project has thrown a wrench into that timetable.

Green Lantern Movie Review By: Joe D I was able to attend Wednesday night’s advanced screening of Green Lantern ! It was practically a dream come true! I finally get to see my most favorite comic hero up on the screen in real life 3D! To say I am a huge Green Lantern fan is almost an understatement. My collection of Green Lantern comics, toys, statues, rings, and other sorted collectibles spans the last 20 years. When I heard that they were finally making a Green Lantern movie, I was beside myself with glee. I think a giggly school girl ‘Tee-hee!’ may have even been involved. With baited breath I waited for anything and everything I could find out. As concept art and cast decisions were announced I became more and more excited. I’ll be honest. A few of the choices had me curious. I realized that when making a live action GL flick, certain details have to be taken into consideration. Making the aliens we GL fans are all too familiar with, come to life; avian Tomar Re, robotic St...

I started to follow funny man Chris O'Dowd on Twitter once I took in Bridesmaids . So one day he asked for fans on twitter to ask him questions. And most of the time when you reply to stars they don't take the time to response to you. But this wasn't the case. Chris tweed- @BigBoyler : Anyone interested in a Q & A with ireland's 312th tallest man? I proceed to ask him what his next film would be? His response- @SandwichJFilms not sure... Probably ' This is 40 '... Another Judd film, which is a delight. Now could this be the film that deadline is reporting about? Deadline reports that Jon Hamm and Melissa McCarthy are set to star in an untilited film that will be produced by Judd Apatow . Did I some how grab a scoop by asking a simple question on Twitter?  Could  " This is 40 ?" be Apatow's next film? The power of the internet, amazing. This is proof it never hurts to ask. Please Leave A Comment-

Producer Joel Silver's massive Hollywood career has been built on grown-up action, but it looks as if the projected audience for at least one of his future projects will skew younger, since he's planning to bring a "big-budget, tentpole, live-action" Ben 10 to cinema screens. Ben 10 , if you've missed it so far, is a hugely successful Cartoon Network series that's been running in various incarnations since 2005. It's about a boy, Ben Tennyson, who comes into posession of a watch-like device that allows him to transform into various superpowered aliens (ten of them... but not all at once). Naturally he uses his new-found abilities to nut up and fight evil, with the help of his granddad and his sister. There've been three separate series and a couple of spin-off live-action TV movies already: both directed by Alex Winter (yup, the one from Bill And Ted) and starring Graham Phillips as Ben the first time, and Ryan Kelley the second. The new versio...

Anyone who enjoys the US version of The Office knows that Ellie Kemper has proved to be a great addition to the cast. And she also provided some solid laughs alongside Kristen Wiig and co in Bridesmaids . Now she’s scored another decent role, signing on to the cast of 21 Jump Street . Directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller are directing the film right now in New Orleans, with Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum playing police officers assigned to work undercover in a local high school to break up a drugs ring. Kemper will play Ms Griggs, a sweet, if sometimes annoyingly sincere chemistry teacher who finds herself attracted to Tatum’s character and is apparently unable to figure out why he seems older than her other students. And it’s a slight comedy reunion for her and Hill, since she had a memorable moment in Get Him to the Greek . The rest of the cast includes Ice Cube, Brie Larson, Rob Riggle, Dave Franco, Johnny Simmons, Dakota Johnson, DeRay Davis and Jake M Johnson . Oh, and ...

Russell Crowe is negotiations to play the Kryptonian father of Superman in Man of Steel , the Zack Snyder-directed relaunch of Warners and Legendary’s Superman franchise. The casting of heavyweight Crowe in the role has a ring of synchronicity to it as it harkens back to the casting of heavyweight Marlon Brando in Warner's 1978 Superman movie. Brando was famously paid $3.7 million dollars in the mid-1970s for the part that amounted to 15 minutes of screen timea and two weeks' worth of work. Details of how large the role (a scientist who forsees the destruction of his planet and squires his infant son into an escape rocket bound for Earth) is in Man of Steel are not being revealed. Steel already has Kevin Costner playing Jonathan Kent, the human father of Superman, who is being played by Henry Cavill. Christopher Nolan is producing the movie, which is heading for a late summer or fall start in Vancouver. Sean Penn and Clive Owen were reportedly considered for the ro...

Rounding out the cast are: Mare Winningham (Brothers) as Baker Margaret, Michael Lerner (Elf) as Baron and Mark Povinelli (Water for Elephants), Jordan Prentice (Harold & Kumar Go to White Cas...

With Ari Gold ( Jeremy Piven ) wife-less and perhaps already back on the singles market, is a reunion with ex-girlfriend and movie exec Dana Gordon just a matter of time? "What happens with us is what I think fans have been hoping would happen at some point," Constance Zimmer , who plays the "female Ari," tells TV Guide Magazine. "It could be a little raunchy!" Zimmer revealed that in the eighth and final season, all of the characters will be exploring territory we haven't witnessed before. "[They] dive very deep into their inner cores of who they are as people, which we haven't been able to see,"  " We've seen a lot about the work and the industry, and this is about what these people are deep down and what they've been missing in their lives." The season, which includes guest stars like Bobby Flay "stirring up a little bit of trouble" for Ari and Dana and Andrew Dice Clay interacting with Drama, wil...
