Full ‘Baby Driver’ Soundtrack Revealed

Baby Driver. TriStar Pictures


One of the most anticipated films of the summer is an action musical in the form of Edgar Wright’s ‘Baby Driver’. Based on the film’s premise and pre-release hype, it seems that the soundtrack is integral to the plot of the film. So it’s only fitting that expectations for film’s soundtrack are sky-high.

In fact, many film critics who have already seen the movie last March at SXSW are raving about the film’s music, including a recent HR’s review which calls the film a “movie-as-mixtape with few slots available for catch-your-breath downtempo track.. a Gone in 60 Seconds for the La La Land crowd“.

Packed with big name artists that span generations, the soundtrack album is set for release on Jun 23, 2017 via Columbia Records imprint, 30th Century Records.

Some of the awesome tracks have already been featured on the trailers, from the first trailer’s ‘Nowhere To Run’ (Martha and the Vandella), and then later to ‘Tequila’ (The Button Down Brass), and ‘Radar Love‘ (Golden Earring). Now with the full soundtrack revealed, we not only see that some of the greats are contributing their classics including Queen, The Beach Boys, and Simon and Garfunkel, but there is also an original track by Danger Mouse, “Chase Me”.

The film follows Baby (Ansel Elgort), a young, talented getaway driver who “relies on the beat of his personal soundtrack to be the best in the game.” But things went awry when he was forced to work for a mysterious crime boss (Kevin Spacey). ‘Baby’ is scheduled for release on June 28, 2017.

You can check out a portion of the track list below.

1. Jon Spencer Blues Explosion – ‘Bellbottoms’
2. Bob & Earl – ‘Harlem Shuffle’
3. Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers – ‘Egyptian Reggae’
4. Googie Rene – ‘Smokey Joe’s La La’
5. The Beach Boys – ‘Let’s Go Away For Awhile’
6. Carla Thomas – ‘B-A-B-Y’
7. Kashmere Stage Band – ‘Kashmere’
8. Dave Brubeck – ‘Unsquare Dance’
9. The Damned – ‘Neat Neat Neat’
10. The Commodores – ‘Easy (Single Version)’

Get Ready to Run this Fall with Marvel Comics’ RUNAWAYS by Rainbow Rowell and Kris Anka

Marvel Comics’ Runaways


New York, NY—June 2, 2017— They were just a normal group of teenagers, linked only by their wealthy parents’ annual business meeting…until a chance discovery revealed the shocking truth: their parents were secretly Super Villains. This discovery led these kids to run away and put them at odds with the people who raised them! Their parents are gone and the team is scattered across the Marvel Universe. This September, get ready to run again with Marvel’s favorite teen Super Heroes, Nico, Chase, Karolina, and Molly for an all-new comic book series, RUNAWAYS by award-winning author, Rainbow Rowell (Eleanor & Park, Carry On) and Kris Anka (All-New X-Men, Star-Lord).

 “The Runaways are down on their luck at the beginning of this story,” said series writer Rainbow Rowell. “I mean, a fair number of them are missing or dead… And the ones who are still standing feel lost. After their parents died in the original series, all they had was each other. What do they have now? Who are they on their own? This story brings the gang back together, but – in true RUNAWAYS fashion – probably not the way you’d expect.”

Lorde Reminds Us Of Her Teenage Days In New Single “Perfect Places”

Lorde: Perfect Places Review
by Niy Birden

Lorde . Republic Records


For the past few months, New Zealand-bread crooner Lorde has been blessing us with single after single from her new soon-to-be-released sophomore album, Melodrama. It comes after nearly 4 years since her debut, Pure Heroine, in which we got to have a dark, gloomy and refreshingly mysterious introduction to the teen with the millennial world in her pocket. And now she is back to remind us that she can still knock out a few hits or two, whilst still somehow being able to get away with her normal teenage rampage.

While her prior singles “Green Light” is her aggressive take on her “first major heartbreak” and “Liability” is on the take of yet another failed relationship, Perfect Places seems to give us more insight into what goes on in this mysterious heroine’s mind.

The song starts off with her two voices layered on top of each other, almost as close to each other as the teens who dance and grind together at parties that she regularly complains about in her songs, so much that you would actually question for a moment if you were just losing your mind rather than hearing two voices singing a normal melody. The lower voice is soft and brooding, the kind of voice you would hear in some kind of art film in which the main character starts going mentally insane, but in the best way that wouldn’t harm them.

Everyone Is A Suspect in “Murder On The Orient Express” Trailer

Murder on the Orient Express. 20th Century Fox

By Creative Media Times

20th Century Fox has released the trailer for the Kenneth Branagh’s new film adaptation of Agatha Christie’s 1934 classic novel, and it’s packed full of stars stranded on a snowbound train. And they’re all suspects for the murder.

This is the third time that Hollywood is taking on the story of well-groomed detective Hercule Poirot (Branagh) investigating the murder of business tycoon Ratchett (Johnny Depp) while aboard the Orient Express train.

The first look on the film in a recent EW article mentions some intriguing updates to the story, possibly more sinister and darker take than the whodunit mystery of the past versions. “I think we’re making a scarier film than people might imagine,” said Branagh.

Though similarly in his version of the story in 1974, director Sidney Lumet recruited some of the biggest star of that time including Sean Connery, Albert Finney, and Lauren Bacall. This time around, joining Depp and Branagh are Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Willem Dafoe, Michelle Pfeiffer, Daisy Ridley, Olivia Colman, Josh Gad, Leslie Odom Jr., Lucy Boynton and Derek Jacobi.

‘Express’ is scheduled for release later this year, Nov. 10.

‘Edge of Tomorrow” Sequel Will Focus on Characters, Says Direct Liman

By Creative Media Times

Warner Bros.


‘Edge of Tomorrow” was a modest hit in 2014. From its $178 million production budget, the film ended its theatrical run with $100 million domestically, though faring slightly better internationally with $270 million. So its only fitting that the sequel will focus on what made the movie great: the characters and the story. This is precisely what director Doug Liman envision on the follow-up, which will bring back original cast Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt into the time-loop sci-fi.

In an interview with MTV HSC Podcast, the director revealed that the ‘Tomorrow’ sequel will go against expectations and will be smaller production.

“I think what people tend to do with sequels is they just make them bigger. And I’m like, ‘No, a sequel should be smaller.’ You did the first film as sort of the ad campaign for the sequel, so now you don’t need as much action, and in the case of Edge of Tomorrow, people obviously loved the comedy and they loved the situation. So we can do way more focus on Tom’s character and Emily Blunt’s character, and there’s a third character in the sequel that’s gonna for sure steal the movie. We can focus on that. I don’t need an action sequence every two minutes.”

Godzilla Vs. Kong Finds A Director

By Creative Media Times

Kong Skull Island, Warner Bros.

Warner Bros. is full speed ahead with its MonsterVerse series. Per Hollywood Reporter, Adam Wingard “has closed a deal to helm Godzilla vs. Kong.”

Wingard recently helmed last year’s found footage supernatural horror film “Blair Witch”, which he also co-produced. Prior to that, he directed genre film “The Guest” (2014), and “You’re Next (2011).

Given such filmography, Godzilla Vs. Kong is a huge departure for Wingard, literally the big monster hugely budgeted film of his career. Last March’s Kong: Skull Island had a reported budget of $185 million, ultimately grossing $565 million at the box-office.

The franchise is a collaboration between Legendary Entertainment and Warner Bros.

Godzilla vs. Kong will be the fourth film, presumably the pinnacle film in the shared cinematic franchise featuring Godzilla and King Kong which started with Godzilla (2014), and was followed by last march’s Kong: Skull Island. Godzilla: King of the Monsters, the third film in the series, is scheduled for release on March 22, 2019.
