Jackson has asked Serkis to serve as his second-unit director. Traditionally, films of

Keanu Reeves set for a Bill & Ted sequel 20 years in the making

The last time we saw Alex Winter’s Bill S. Preston, Esq., and Keanu Reeves’ Ted “Theodore” Logan was in 1991’s Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey. Now it seems that Reeves isn’t just game to return to that time-traveling, rock-and-rolling world—a script is on the way. Some sequels make you giddy

11 awesome vintage posters for Disney’s greatest sci-fi rides

It’s not just the rides that have made Disneyland the (repeat after us) “Happiest Place On Earth.” Since 1956, silk-screened posters at the park’s main entrance and along pedestrian tunnel walls have also transported us, giving a tantalizing preview of the attractions inside.

NBC has changed that Wonder Woman costume you dissed

When the new Wonder Woman outfit Adrianne Palicki would wear in David E. Kelley’s reboot was unveiled, you were, to put it mildly, less than enthusiastic. So how did NBC respond to all that criticism? As you can see in the picture belowon the set, the Amazonian’s boots, which were

Total Recall remake gains Bryan Cranston, but loses Mars
