New Wonder Woman TV Spots

By Creative Media Times

Around a month from Wonder Woman’s release comes two new action-packed ‘Wonder Woman’ TV spots: one gives us a brief look at Ares, the movie’s villain, and the other shows us some of the movie’s comedic aspects, epic battles, and shots involving Wonder Woman’s lasso of truth.
Meanwhile, Regal Entertainment Group also announced the Wonder Woman Ultimate Ticket, which allows fans to see the movie at Regal locations once per day in any format, including 3D, IMAX, 4DX and RPX, during the film’s entire theatrical run. The ticket costs $100 (plus shipping) and is available on Regal’s website.

The first spot, titled “Together,” has a lighter tone and shows the comedic side of Chris Pine’s character (Steve Trevor) as he tries to explain his relationship with Gal Gadot’s Diana, confirming again that there’s lighthearted humor in the film along with the action and epic battles. The second spot is a bit more somber and is called “Power”. The spot gives us a glimpse of villain Ares and Diana are battling it out. Its been confirmed that the Ares will appear in the film, but this is the first time we’ve seen the villain in action.

Overall, the TV sports give us varied aspects of the film without being too spoilery, which is refreshing. That said we will surely be seeing a barrage of marketing over the next month as the studio gears up its promotional blitz near the movie’s release.

Wonder Woman also stars Connie Nielsen, Robin Wright, David Thewlis, and Danny Huston. The film arrives in theaters on June 2, 2017.

Shyamalan Announces ‘Split’ / ‘Unbreakable’ Sequel

By Armando


If you’re an M. Night Shyamalan fan, you’re probably one of those whose brain exploded after that shock ending in ‘Split’ while realizing that the rest of the audience wondered what the hell was going on.

For 17 years, fans of M. Night Shyamalan’s ‘Unbreakable’ have been asking for a sequel but saw that possibility disappear over the years. Well, after the release of ‘Split’ last January, that question was finally answered, somewhat unofficially in latter film’s final minutes, but now officially on Twitter yesterday by Shyamalan himself.

It’s taken 17 years but I can finally answer the #1 question I get, ‘Are you making a f#&@ing sequel to Unbreakable or what?’ ” he tweeted. “My new film is the sequel to #Unbreakable AND #Split. It was always my dream to have both films collide in this third film.” A couple of hours earlier, Universal Pictures announced the title and dated the film’s release: “Universal Pictures will release #Glass on January 18, 2019 all over the world. How’s that for not keeping a secret!

Fans will remember that Mr. Glass is the criminal alias of Samuel L. Jackson’s character in Unbreakable, Elijah Price. In that movie, Price has an abnormally fragile bones and is in search of his opposite extreme, one that is “unbreakable”.

Then in the final scene in ‘Split’, that character, Bruce Willis‘ David Dunn shows up in a restaurant, watching the TV. In that scene, as everyday folks were reminded of another criminal character back in the day, David uttered “they called him Mr. Glass.”

Well, there you go. Just like that, Shyamalan has created his very own shared cinematic universe!

Rest In Peace Jonathan Demme

By Creative Media Times

John Stephen Dwyer

The great auteur who gave us ‘Silence of the Lambs’ and ‘Philadelphia’ died this morning in New York. He was 73. The Oscar-winning director died of cancer complications.

Demme rose to prominence with a wide range of genres such as the comedies Melvin and Howard (1980) and Married to the Mob (1988), the concert film featuring Talking Heads’ live performance Stop Making Sense (1984) which is hailed as one of the greatest rock movies ever, and the drama Philadelphia (1993) which won star Tom Hanks his first Best Actor Oscar.

But Demme is probably best known for directing “Silence of the Lambs,” the 1991 horror-thriller which swept the Academy Awards, winning the 5 major awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor for Anthony Hopkins, Best Actress for Jodie Foster and Best Adapted Screenplay for Ted Tally.

As such, this makes ‘Lambs’ only the third film in history to accomplish such a feat, and the first and only horror film to win Best Picture.

Demme is survived by his wife Joanne Howard, and their three children.

Superman Is Back In New Justice League Poster… Or Is He?

By Armando


There’s been speculation over Superman’s role in the upcoming DCEU team-up ‘Justice League’ after what transpired in ‘Batman V Superman’. In recent months Superman was also conspicuously absent in the trailer and promos. But over the weekend, a promo image shows up and it features the man of steel himself.

Which brings us back to speculation mode: will Superman be back alongside the Justice League team? Will he resurrect as a villain? Will he be the same Superman that we saw in Man of Steel? Well, before we speculate any further, be aware that the photo did not come from the studio, and that it’s nowhere to be found in the official movie site. It came from Rubies, a site that sells officially licensed DC Comics costumes.

Right now, there is still no official answer to these questions. Zack Snyder did hinted last month, though somewhat ambiguously, about Superman’s future in Justice League: “It’s hard to have a Justice League without Superman. That’s how I feel about it. It was always a super-intriguing concept to me to have this opportunity to have him make that sacrifice but also have him be this, in a weird sort of way, the why of Justice League: What do you do now with him? What does the team think? What does the world need? All that comes into play. It’s fun for us but it’ll be interesting for audiences what we do with him.

So there you go. Let the speculations begin. It is of course entirely possible that Superman won’t even show up in Justice League until the very end, ala Mark Hamill in The Force Awakens, or Snyder is just teasing fans. Speaking of which, a new Justice League website was also released yesterday which promises “access to exclusive Justice League content, products, and experiences”, something for fans to chew on as we await the movie’s release.

Justice League opens in November 17.

Scorsese, DiCaprio, De Niro May Team For ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’

By Creative Media Times


Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio have collaborated on many feature films since Gangs of New York, while De Niro have been starring in Scorsese’s films since 1970’s Mean Streets. Though De Niro and DiCaprio have previously worked together in 1996’s Marvin’s Room, it is surprising that the trio have not done a film together.

Well, it looks like this dream team might actually happen soon. Deadline reports that the trio are eyeing an adaptation of the book “Killers Of The Flower Moon: The Osage Murders And The Birth Of The FBI” by David Grann. Though it seems none of them are currently officially attached, according to the article, all three are “seriously considering” joining the project.

For those who might not be aware, Grann is also the author of The Lost City of Z, which was adapted into a feature film by director James Gray, starring Charlie Hunnam. That movie recently came out to critical acclaim. ‘Flower Moon’ itself has been receiving excellent reviews: Entertainment Weekly recently called it” The Best Book Of The Year So Far”. So its understandable that Grann’s latest work is a magnet for a high profile Hollywood adaptation.

Though very early into negotiations, at least we are assured of De Niro’s devotion into making this happen. In an interview with Hollywood Reporter a few month ago, De Niro said that he’d love to reunite with Scorsese and make a movie with DiCaprio: “Leo loves Marty the way I do, so it’s great. I’d love for the three of us to do something.”

Kevin Feige Says Post-Infinity War Will Be “Very Different”

By Creative Media Times

With the arrival of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 comes conversations about the future of MCU, and from Kevin Feige’s recent interview with Collider, it seems that future may be “very different” from what we might be expecting after Avengers: Infinity War.

“We have an idea [of what the MCU looks like post-Infinity War], and it’s gonna be very, very different,” said Feige. This statement suggest many potential shifts in MCU’s focus. Next year comes the release of Infinity War, the nineteenth film installment, which also marks tenth year since Iron Man started it all. The following year comes its currently untitled sequel. So there is reason to believe a few characters could be retired after that.

But who knows for sure. Its equally possible that the studio will give way to some of the new characters, or even possible reboots. The studio has very busy slate before Infinity War even arrives. This year alone, we will see the release of Galaxy Vol.2, Spiderman: Homecoming and Thor: Ragnarok, followed by Black Panther on February of next year. All these movies may come into play in shaping the future of MCU.

“We’re not actively discussing anything past untitled Avengers, other than we’ve dated Spider-Man: Homecoming 2—which that would not be the title but that’s what we would call it—because that’s the agreement we made with Sony for the inclusion of Spidey in the Avengers films, and James Gunn doing a third Guardians of the Galaxy at some point. But really the whole focus of Marvel Studios is, counting Guardians 2, the next eight films that are gonna take up all of our time.”

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2 hits theaters on May 5, 2017.

Nelly Furtado-“The Ride” Album Review

By: Melgie Claire

Nelly Furtado – The_Ride

With 2006’s gleaming, Timbaland-created Loose, Nelly Furtado went from hippie-ish vocalist of “I’m Like a Bird” to a startling pop star with numerous Main 10 hits. The vocalist, in any case, has been experiencing a melodic identity crisis from that point onward, she overlooked subsequent meet-ups wavering between her people history and her pop achievement. The sixth album, “The Ride”, accomplishes balance.

Taking signals from recent partner Dev Hynes, an artist who makes enthusiastic synth-pop, Furtado’s first album on her label finds a home in crunchy outside the box driven tunes that superbly fit her innovative verses. Opening track “Cold Hard Truth” is one of her finest in years, an infectious single with one of the collection’s heaviest beats. The appealing “Paris Sun” conveys a menacingly sexy synth reminiscent of Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer” however with a milder touch.

The Ride’s essential blemish is obvious in its insignificant titles. A lot of the record, especially the ballads, falls into the lyricist’s trap of taking an arrogance and composing each and every piece of subtext out of it.
