Now that Black Friday has come and gone and folks have to start making sane if vaguely desperate decisions what to get their friends and loved ones for the holidays, it seemed appropriate that Cinematical put together a list of a few items that might help cross a few names off your list. ...

The Kinks Get a Biopic
The Kinks will soon have us! The English rock band (aka the dudes behind the song "You Really Got Me") are getting a feature biopic. ScreenDaily reports that British director Julien Temple is collaborating with frontman Ray Davies on a film that will focus on the relationship between Ray and ...

Shelf Life: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
On Thanksgiving Day this year, I sat with my girlfriend's lovely family eating turkey and watching Home Alone , and it occurred to me that in the hustle and bustle of reviewing new movies, I seldom take the time to go back and revisit the holiday movies that I remember from my childhood. ...

Box Office: Everybody's Armored Brothers
New Moon did 70% less this week but still managed to hold onto first place. Just as interesting is that The Blind Side had an 18% increase from last week while only appearing in 30 more theaters. Old Dogs just didn't have the energy and landed back in fourth with Ninja Assassin taking sixth. ...

New to Me: Twilight Zone: The Movie
I'd seen enough episodes of "The Twilight Zone" as a kid to get the gist of it - bite-sized morality tales that always came with a twist and often gave me the willies. However, I hadn't caught up with 1983's Twilight Zone: The Movie until just last night. Now, I was looking for pictures to ...

Summit Moves From Sparkly Vamps to an Assassin's 'Alibi'
Back in September, I wondered what Summit would spend their big wad of Twilight cash on. They're primed to rake in a couple billion by the time this is all over. The company made almost $385 mil at the box office with the first installment (having spent only $37 mil), and so far $476,334,668 ...

'Green Lantern' Will Choose Adventure Over Origin
Every day, I hope we'll get another big piece of The Green Lantern casting (and not just an open casting call ) such as Sinestro or Carol Ferris, or even Abin Sur. This is a movie we're all really eager to see take shape. But for now, we'll have to be content with hints about the script, which ...

Watch This: How James Cameron Scored the Effects Cash for 'Avatar'
Fair warning right out of the gate: the below video is A) Not Safe for Work, unless you conduct business in a place in which no one has ears, and B) targeted for a very specific group of people. If you've been eagerly anticipating James Cameron's Avatar for years, if you think the ...

Free Flick of the Day: The Pirates of Penzance
Forget Pirates of the Caribbean . Forget musicals like My Fair Lady . My favorite swashbucklers don't have an Aerosmith swagger or terrible speech troubles. They hold their own against the very model of a modern major general. In 1980, theatrical producer and creator of the New York Shakespeare ...

Sundance Announces the 2010 US and World Competition Lineups!

Annie Nominations Announced, Still No 3D Category
This has been such a good year for animated films (maybe even the beginning of a golden age ) that I've never been more excited or curious about the Annie Awards. The International Animated Film Society has just announced the nominees for their honors , and the fact that Pixar's Up is not ...

The Rachel Bilson Sex Scene You Won't Want to Watch
When it comes to topless scenes, director McG just can't seem to catch a break. First he had to cut out the gratuitous Moon Bloodgood topless scene from Terminator Salvation in order to maintain the film's PG-13 rating (it's now featured on the DVD, but I heard there's nothing bloody good ...

Halcyon Auctions Off 'Terminator Salvation' Props & Costumes
This is getting ridiculous, and I can only assume that James Cameron is shaking his head somewhere and muttering: "Jacka**es." We wondered if the Terminator franchise was in trouble back in August , and then learned that Halcyon -- the company who owns the rights to the franchise -- filed for ...

3D Sequels for 'Zombieland' and 'Jackass' Confirmed
Having attended the world premiere at Fantastic Fest, I was positive Zombieland would be a word of mouth hit and the creative gang both behind and in front of the camera would surely be returning to their special post-apocalyptic world in no time. But, in retrospect, my experience was a ...

Twilight: Goth or Not? (Not.)
I don't remember when it started, but somewhere around the age of 16 I discovered Bauhaus, heavy eyeliner, and Neil Gaiman's Sandman. (Guess who my favorite character was?). I acquired a leather jacket, big boots, and a collection of Anne Rice and Poppy Z. Brite books. Bram Stoker's Dracula  ...

Everything You Need to Know About Peter Berg's 'Battleship'
When it comes to films based on board games, folks are immediately inclined to make fun of the idea and trash the project -- which is why Universal decided to get out in front of the negative buzz by sending a group of movie writers down to San Diego to meet with Battleship director Peter ...
