To be honest, there have been many casting announcements for R.I.P.D trickling through that we simply haven’t reported on, mainly because there have been so many casting rumours and updates over the past few months that if we reported on …

Posted on November 18, 2010 by Brendon Connelly

The US will be treated to the Coen Bros. True Grit on December 22nd, while we in the UK are going to be kept hanging on a rope until January 14th. Hardly seems fair. And it’s no real compensation that …

New TRON: Legacy Trailer Finally Skews Plotwards

Posted on November 9, 2010 by Brendon Connelly

The latest TRON: Legacy trailer is undoubtedly the best yet – I hope that doesn’t also mean it’s the most misrepresentative. For once, though, the score isn’t the most interesting thing in the promo. I think the redoubled focus on …

TRON: Legacy Diptych Versus Triptych

Posted on November 5, 2010 by Brendon Connelly

Here’s a couple of the newer posters for TRON: Legacy. Oh, so many TRON posters, so little time. I’m starting to doubt that there’s been even a single design proposed that wasn’t then used. They’re really going for the whole …

Great True Grit Poster, Details Of How You Can See A Longer Trailer

Posted on October 1, 2010 by Brendon Connelly

It’s slightly better in principle than it is in execution, but I’m glad that the first True Grit poster isn’t just a spread of floating heads. In Contention scored the premiere of this design. Poor Hailee Steinfeld. She’s the star of …

First Teaser Trailer For The Coens’ True Grit

Posted on September 27, 2010 by Brendon Connelly

The Coen Bros. first drew up a draft screenplay for True Grit some years ago. I imagine after No Country For Old Men won a heap of gongs and an honorable horde of dollars, it was rather easy to get …

New Tron Poster Gives Jeff Bridges His Spot In The Neon Sun

Posted on August 3, 2010 by Brendon Connelly
