If there’s one local icon that is loved harder than rugby, soccer, gatsby sammiches and Sunday alcohol, it’s got to be Nelson Mandela. While the great one has been portrayed in movies and television before, his full life story has yet to be turned into a full length feature film. Until now that is, as Michael Bay will be shooting …

Daniel Day-Lewis is in my opinion, the greatest actor currently walking around on this blue-green space marble we call Earth. There simply isn’t a role he can’t play, a claim that will definitely be put to the test in his next acting gig.

Hell, it had wiped the more painful parts of Stallone’s 1995 Judge Dredd movie from my mind. The parts that rhymed with Schnod Bider I think. And yet …

As you might recall, we recently shared the extremely exciting red band trailer for Kick-Ass 2 with you, which featured more than its fair share of violence and strong language.
