It’s award season. With Tinsel Town getting ready to attempt to win little statues of gold men covering their gentials in various categories, you can bet your buns that once again, the judging criteria is going to be slick and leaning towards the artsy side of the spectrum.

Ok, let’s see. Noelle can have the cyanide capsules, Lourens says that he wants a length of rope, Kervyn can take the loaded gun, and I’ll use this knife to stab myself in the face. Because of those four scenarios, any of them would be preferable to watching another “parody” film directed by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer again. And this …

With The Hunger Games cleaning up nicely at the box office this year, it was only a matter of seconds before a sequel was greenlit, in the form of Catching Fire. Lionsgate has a potential license to print money with this franchise, and they’re not stopping with a second film, as they’ve already tapped some talent to help turn the third book …

Check out Mortal Kombat: Legacy director Kevin Tancharoen's failed HUNGER GAMES sizzle reel

Sizzle reels be sizzlin’ yo! They’ve always been around, as directors create video pitches for studios to get a feel for what their vision for a potential film could be. Generally though, they never see the public eye. But after Joe Carnahan released his failed Daredevil video pitch to much fanfare, other directors began cottoning onto the fact that it’s a …

With the exception of Donald Sutherland and Lenny Kravitz, none of the main stars of the record breaking Hunger Games were what you might call household names. Star Jennifer Lawrence had been pretty unrecognizable under layers of make-up in X-Men: First Class, and her previous on-screen efforts, while critically praised was much smaller indie affairs. But Lionsgate is certainly not keeping …
