It would seem so if you are a Trekkie.
Into Darkness is set to prove that at warp speed.
Paramount Pictures requested director J.J. Abrams to make the film in 3D. However, Abrams wanted to shoot the movie two dimensionally on film using IMAX cameras. The two compromised, and as a result this film marks the first time in cinema history that a movie was filmed in the IMAX format and then converted into 3D in post production.–IMDB
This blogger feels that IMAX is over-rated. I would like to see the production with the special effects of 3-D rather than a convert to 3D. Sadly my name is not J.J. Abrams.
Don’t get me wrong, IMAX does offer an excellent experience, but there are many theater locations that offer a large picture format that compares to, if not exceeds IMAX.

This was a pretty good year to be a fan of genre movies. More and more low-budget movies had the courage to tackle science fiction and fantasy themes, and meanwhile Hollywood seemed to step up its game a little. But at the same time, there were still tons of boring sequels and prequels, and mountains of crap.
Here are some picks for the year’s best and worst science fiction and fantasy movies. Let the debate begin! Your FIF, The Kernel Continue Reading →

Humor is subjective, right? Some people think vintage “Three Stooges” movies are the height of hilarity. Some people think the recent “Three Stooges” movie is the funniest thing ever. (In theory — we don’t know any personally, but we’re sure they exist.) But even subjectivity has its limits. Some comedies are so tragically unfunny that most, if not all, of us can agree on their awfulness. We asked Jenni Miller, Max Evry and Elisabeth Rappe — some of the funniest people we know — to rate the 50 worst offenders in the Bad Comedy Hall of Fame. Continue Reading →

There is plenty of potential in these offerings and lots of great stories to be told!
Zombies don’t exactly lend themselves to teen romance stories as well as vampires do, what with their flesh being all gross and decaying, like a jack o’ lantern in November, rather than pale and smooth, like a porcelain doll. But that’s not going to stop the creators of Warm Bodies from capitalizing on the current zombie crazy by making a teen zombie romance anyway.

Star Wars fans know this clip well but it makes me laugh out loud every time I see it. George Lucas famously left in this gaffe of a Stormtrooper hitting his head on the Death Star and while you don’t notice it the first see the movie, once you do notice it, it’s all you ever see. It’s a hilarious moment. Your FIF, The Kernel
This whole week we’ve been gearing up for war. Now we finally have the World War Z trailer. And, true to the footage we saw earlier, it looks huge. Definitely a very, very, very loose adaptation of the book. Back when running zombies were introduced to the horror vernacular I had no idea they’d eventually run so fast in film they’d look like cascading flood water. It almost feels like a Roland Emmerich touch. As for the rest of the trailer – it looks good, but nothing that I haven’t seen before in one way or another.

We got a shaky, blurry look at Fede Alvarez’s hotly anticipated Evil Dead remake earlier this month. While it was blurry and shaky due to its bootleg nature it revealed one thing – that the film will be supremely gory!!! And now, we have a clear look at the film. Bonus? Still super gory! And it uses the low-roving shots that we all know and love. Despite the more polished look, it feels very much like an Evil Dead movie to me. Specifically the first one, where it was five people and it wasn’t just about Ash! Continue Reading →
The Year of Channing Tatum, which is what I’m pretty sure we’ll call 2012 in the history books when all things are said and done, looks to continue handily next year, both thanks to the delay of G.I. Joe: Retaliation (which was added to include more of Tatum, believe it or not) and White House Down, in which he plays a Secret Service agent valiantly defending the center of federal government during a terrorist attack. We’ve gotten a few glimpses behind the scenes of the film, but now the first official images have hit the web.
Ever since the news broke that Disney had bought Lucasfilm, the internet has been exploding with excitement from fans. Rumors about the plot, casting, and who will direct the films, especially the first one, Star Wars: Episode 7, have been circulating at an alarming rate.
Stepping into the huge gap that George Lucas (and Irvin Kershner and Richard Marquand) left is going to be a daunting task for whoever is brought on as director for the next trilogy. This decision is one of the biggest that Disney is faced with and it should also be one of the first that they tackle.
So in order to ease their decision making process a bit, we’ve come up with a list of the top directors to take on Star Wars: Episode 7. Continue Reading →
