Now that the Oscars are over we can fully put 2012 behind us and look forward to all the splendor and highly anticipated films of 2013. Super-heroes have been all the rage and thankfully have become more hit than miss as of late. One property that has been and continues to stay near the top of the pyramid is Spider-Man. Last year Marc Webb proved that his slightly unnecessary reboot was on par with the Raimi trilogy, if not better in many ways. Well, Marc Webb’s got a lot of elements and characters to manage if he hopes to top the success of his 2012 film and keep this new adventure from feeling bloated and…

The 85th Annual Academy Awards – Full Winners List
Last night, the 85th Annual Academy Awards ceremony went off without a hitch and aside from some real shockers (like Ang Lee beating out Spielberg and Quentin Tarantino winning for best screenplay) it was an immensely delightful few hours. Despite what some think about Seth MacFarlane he really brought some life to the evening replete with some crass but still witty jokes, classic zingers, sock puppets as well as song and dance numbers that just made you smile. Like him or not we, and the crowd at the BigFanBoy/GoSeeTalk Oscar screening at The Angelika Film Center Dallas, thought he was a treat. But he was only the first in a…

“The CineMagic 8-Ball” – In Theaters 02/22/13

David O. Russell to Direct Jennifer Lawrence In Two New Projects
When a filmmaker finds a talent he likes working with it can be, in the immortal words of Humphrey Bogart, “the beginning of a beautiful friendship“. Well hot off the successful longevity that David O. Russell is seeing with his Silver Linings Playbook, he’s not done with Jennifer Lawrence, not by a long shot. As such the filmmaker is looking to work with the white-hot actress for two more pictures. He and Lawrence will be re-collaborating on his next two features. The first is a yet-untitled dark comedy, formerly known as American Bullshit, about the ABSCAM scandal. It’s a true story of a notorious financial con-artist and his mistress/partner in crime (played respectively…

Happy Birthday To Us…Go,See,Talk Turns 4!
Four years is a long time. It’s the term that a US president spends in office, the time some college students spend at a University, it’s the time between the Olympics and even the World Cup. To some, 4 years may not seem like a long time but in the entertainment world it is a lifetime. It sure feels like it especially when I try to recall my attempts to start a “movie blog” waaaay back then. When I started Go,See,Talk in 2009 I had no idea what I was getting into. It seemed everyone had a movie website, but I thought why not try my hand at it. Frankly,…

Ohhh, Look…The Dean of 'Monsters University' Welcomes You

We also got a small batch of see hi-rez images and posters to oogle over and things continually look to be shaping up nicely for this prequel to Pete Docter’s monster hit (pun intended!). Well continuing their world building, by way of the fun viral website that was launched a few months back, today we get a very special message from the Dean of Monsters University.

Sweet Trailer…'The Company You Keep'
A few months back we posted the festival trailer for Robert Redford‘s The Company You Keep prior to its showing at TIFF. It got mixed reviews but managed to keep pace and handle the top drawer acting talent pretty well we hear. Yahoo movies has released the official theatrical trailer and it gives a little more of the plot while hints at the tension in this politically charged chase themed film…enjoy! The Company You Keep follows a single father/lawyer in upstate New York whose upper-middle class life is shattered when his past as a radical activist member of the Weather Underground is revealed and he is accused of having been the…

Ho-Hum Trailer…'The Internship'
Those of you pining for Wedding Crashers 2 we’re sorry, we have no news on that front. However if you’re fond of the likable chemistry between Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn, this might just be what what you were waiting for. Billy (Vince Vaughn) and Nick (Owen Wilson) are salesmen whose careers have hit a brick wall thanks to the digital world. While attempting to prove they are not obsolete, they defy the odds by talking their way into a coveted internship at Google. Things don’t go so well as they continually match (dim) wits with a battalion of brilliant college students. Check it out below. Watching these two try and…

Ohhh, Look…'Iron Man 3' Poster Shows Don Cheadle As The Iron Patriot
After yesterday’s sneak peek at the Iron Man 3 poster, Disney has just unveiled the latest bit of marketing for their upcoming super-hero film. Not like it was any mystery that Don Cheadle (playing Lt. Col. James Rhodes) would be wearing the “Iron Patriot” armor in this film, but this poster is still neat to look at. So now that the cat, er Cheadle is fully out of the bag, let’s just skip to the good stuff… We really hope the “teaser for movie posters” concept Disney pulled yesterday doesn’t take off. The teaser for teaser trailer trend was pushing it. But anyway, we are where we are and regardless of the…
