One of the biggest films slated to hit theaters this year, and one of G-S-T most anticipated films of 2013, is Joseph Kosinski’s Oblivion. Starring Tom Cruise, this post-apocalyptic big-budget behemoth will be Kosinski’s second film to date. However after wowing us with TRON: Legacy (in visuals, story not so much) we can’t wait to see the world he and his creative team have dreamed up. The second trailer for Oblivion hit the web and it is even more engaging and impressive than the first. Crank up your speakers, click this to full screen mode and enjoy! A trailer for a film like this, and sci-fi films in general, may…

Sweet Trailer…'Writers'
They say writers write what they know. So why is it they all have messed up stories to tell? Well that’s because life is messed up and they’re usually the only ones brave enough to bring that fact to light. By sharing their problems, awkward situations, inadequacies, etc. they give hope to a whole generation of people possibly facing similar issues. That said a little cinematic sugar can help the uncomfortable mess they call life a little easier to put down. As such, if you’re keen on that sort of stuff, enjoy this trailer for Writers from Millennium Entertainment. Writers stars Greg Kinnear trying to keep his the pieces of…

“The CineMagic 8-Ball” – In Theaters 02/08/13
When so many movies are released each week and trailers often seem better than the movie itself, what should one do? In this precarious situation, we consult the The CineMagic 8-Ball (TM) to help us see through the nebulous marketing haze.

Off the Shelf…’Peter Pan’
When it comes to classic Disney movies, usually, the older the title the more fascinating the film. Now that doesn’t have to do with the plot of story itself but rather the story behind the picture and how it all came to be. Back before computers, hand drawn animation was immensely challenging and time consuming to say the very least. But once completed, and exhibited on the silver screen, it soon became a feast for the eyes as well as the imagination. The result was something that would serve as inspiration to an entire generation of people both young and old. But like any great story there’s an even better back story. So…

G-S-T Review…Warm Bodies
Ah, young love. It’s a tale as old as time and no matter how far we come as a society will remain one of life’s greatest complexities. The uncertainty of affectionate advances, the confidence it takes to even talk to a member of the opposite sex, etc. etc. In Warm Bodies, the adaptation of Isaac Marion’s popular YA novel, Jonathan Levine takes us through the trials and tribulations of amorous adolescents we’ve seen countless times before but with one small detail thrown in to further complicate matters – a zombie apocalypse. Levine delivers this young adult yarn that is just bursting with originality. It’s a witty, genre-bending story, and a coming of age…
