Watch X-Men Days Of Future Past Online Free


Watch Movie Link ======>> http://bit.ly/1t8ppDi

"X-Men: Days of Future Past" begins in the future part of the title, a post-apocalyptic world where mutants and the humans who helped them have been either destroyed or imprisoned in what looks like concentration camps. How did this happen? You can thank advanced war machines called sentinels, designed with the help of the DNA from the mutant known as Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence).
Fans of the original X-Men movies will almost immediately get the satisfaction of seeing Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), Storm (Halle Berry) and Kitty Pryde (Ellen Page) back together again -- but for how long? They're on a mountaintop in China, and like the relentless sentinels in "The Matrix," who could also burrow through metal and concrete, these sentinels are closing in.

What to do? Since Kitty is able to project a person’s consciousness back in time, Professor X and Magneto hatch a plan to send one of the mutants into the past to convince the younger Prof X and Magneto to work together in order to prevent Mystique from doing something that sets off the series of events that lead to this horrific future. The person they decide to send back is Wolverine: he's the only mutant who can handle the physical brutality of time travel, because his mutation allows him to instantly heal. Never mind that he’s not actually physically going anywhere: only his consciousness is, although when he's injured in the past, it physically affects him in the future.

James Brown Biopic 'Get On Up' Lights The Screen On Fire In Latest Trailer

Nearly eight years have passed since the world lost James Brown, the Godfather of Soul (on Christmas Day, no less) in 2006. So why has it taken Hollywood so long to construct a musical biopic in his honor? Finding the right man to fill Brown’s hefty shoes might have caused the delay, but by the look of the above trailer for Get On Up, Chadwick Boseman’s the guy we’ve all been waiting for.

This trailer, posted to YouTube, hits all the usual beats of the musical biopic. We get a child version of the soon-to-be superstar, starting in rural surroundings (usually in a broken home) but funneling the pain and suffering of a conflicted childhood into his or her art. In this case, we very quickly get to scenes of James Brown, the "hardest working man in show business," entertaining crowds, making briefcases full of money, signing record deals (with Dan Aykroyd, no less), and – at the movie’s dramatic turn – confronting the sins of the past the artist thought they left behind.

A few things concern me. Get On Up is directed by Tate Taylor, a Southerner (from the great state of Mississippi) who brought a taste of the region to his award-winning The Help. But I’m still wondering, after watching this clip, if he’s the right director for this job. There’s no denying that Taylor hired a worthy cast. Chadwick Boseman has been impressing audiences with turns as Jackie Robinson in 42, and as an arrogant NFL draft pick in Ivan Reitman’s Draft Day. And he’s surrounded by talent in Get On Up, including Octavia Spencer and Viola Davis (holdovers from The Help), Keith Robinson, Aykroyd, Jill Scott, Tika Sumpter and Nick Eversman… as Mick Jagger! (The Rolling Stones front man receives a producer’s credit on this movie.)

Hopefully it all works. James Brown lived a very colorful life, had a wonderfully successful musical career, suffered the usual ups and downs that come with celebrity, and left us at the ripe old age of 73. He’s a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. He’s an icon, with an amazing story to tell. Hopefully Tate Taylor and the team for Get On Up are ready to tell it.

The movie opens in theaters on August 1. What’d you think of the trailer?

Benedict Cumberbatch, Adam Scott Join Whitey Bulger Biopic Black Mass

James Whitey Bulger’s time as a mob boss, criminal mastermind and fugitive from the law contained all sorts of misdirections and bizarre 180s; so, it only makes sense his biopic, Black Mass, would bring some weirdness with it too. With production already under way, Benedict Cumberbatch has reportedly been tapped to play the role of Billy Bulger, the notorious mobster’s politician brother.

That means original actor Guy Pearce must be out, though exactly why is unclear. The Boston Globe made no mention of a reason when it dropped the casting news this afternoon. Hopefully Peace is physically fine and just decided to work on another project. From Cumberbatch’s perspective, however, the choice to fill in at the last minute seems like a no-brainer considering how fascinating the character is and the natural appeal of playing alongside Johnny Depp, who long ago accepted the role of Whitey.

Whitey Bulger might be the name most people outside of Massachusetts know, but within Boston, Billy is every bit as famous as his outlaw brother. He was the President of the Massachussets Senate for almost two decades and President of the University of Massachusetts for a further 7 years. A democrat with high approval ratings, especially in South Boston, he was eventually forced to resign in 2003 after he admitted he didn’t inform law enforcement officials that he’d been in contact with his brother. To this day, he maintains he didn’t know the extent of his brother’s crimes, but even many of his biggest supporters aren’t necessarily willing to back his account there. Not that they blame him, of course. People in Boston have been looking out for their family members for three centuries.

Benedict Cumberbatch is a great actor. You would have to look far and wide to find a single person that would disagree with that statement, but as to whether or not he’s better as a conventional lead or in gritty supporting roles, the jury is still very much out. In just the past few years, we’ve seen leads in The Fifth Estate, Sherlock and Parade’s End and key supporting roles in 12 Years A Slave, Star Trek Into Darkness and The Hobbit. At this point, it seems like Black Mass will fall into the supporting character category, though it should still be a very meaty role.

In addition to Benedict Cumberbatch, Adam Scott has also joined Black Mass. That news came this afternoon from The Hollywood Reporter. He will be playing a key FBI agent, which should serve as a nice departure from the typical comedic roles he’s made his career playing.

Black Mass is currently shooting on location in Boston. It’s being directed by Scott Cooper, who is probably best known for his Jeff Bridges led film Crazy Heart.

Sin City: A Dame To Kill For Gets 5 Dark And Gritty New Character Posters

This year at the cinema is filled with all kinds of big sci-fi and superhero comic book action, with Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, X-Men: Days of Future Past and Guardians of the Galaxy all hitting theaters worldwide, but a comic book movie of a completely different variety will be arriving in theaters this August. After nearly a full decade of being in the works, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's Sin City: A Dame To Kill For is finally ready to make its big screen debut this summer. It's been a good long while since we've seen anything from the sequel - the last footage coming in the form of a teaser released last month - but doing their part to help stop the drought today are five brand new character posters.

Hosted by Fandango, IGN, EW, IMDb, and MTV, the various posters show off characters both familiar and new to audiences who enjoyed the first Sin City back in 2005 - so let's break them down, shall we? Up top we have the beautiful Jessica Alba, who returns in Sin City: A Dame To Kill For as Nancy Callahan - who this time will be the protagonist of her own short story written specifically for the screen by Frank Miller. It pairs well with the Marv one-sheet below, which shows Mickey Rourke back under heavy prosthetic makeup and wielding a shotgun.



David S. Goyer Dismisses She-Hulk As 'A Giant Green Porn Star'

The rivalry between Marvel and DC runs deep, and has for decades. So when a creative voice associated with one party comments on record about a character in the other company’s stable, you know that their words are going to be picked over and analyzed by both fervent fan bases… particularly when the comments can be interpreted with sexist and borderline misogynistic undertones.

David S. Goyer has a long history with DC Comics, having penned screenplays for motion pictures based on iconic DC characters like Superman (Man of Steel) and Batman (Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight films). That doesn’t mean Goyer doesn’t pay attention to the Marvel stable of heroes, and he commented on one – She-Hulk – during an appearance on screenwriter John August’s ScriptNotes podcast. Goyer was one of several panel members recording in front of a live audience, including co-host Craig Mazin, as well as screenwriters Andrea Berloff, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. It was a bit of an all-star panel, recording a podcast that would benefit the Writers Guild Foundation. But it was Goyer’s comments on She-Hulk that are setting the Web on fire this morning.

Explaining the offbeat origin of She-Hulk, Goyer said:
I have a theory about She-Hulk. Which was created by a man, right? And at the time in particular I think 95 percent of comic-book readers were men, and certainly almost all of the comic-book writers were men. … And so then they created She-Hulk, right? Who was still smart, so it was like, I think She-Hulk is the chick that you could fuck if you were Hulk, you know what I’m saying?… She-Hulk was the extension of the male power fantasy. So it’s like if I’m going to be this geek who becomes the Hulk, then let’s create a giant green porn star that only the Hulk could fuck."

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles To Hit Select IMAX Theaters Internationally

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise has always been rather larger than life, and that pattern seems to be holding true for the upcoming reboot. What used to be a series of films that started with actors in turtle suits has transformed into a product that makes good use of the incredible visual effects and technological advantages that are available to modern blockbusters. This time out, the Turtles are in a motion captured/3D presentation, and if you're in the right area, you'll also get to see them in IMAX.

The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that IMAX is looking to release the Michael Bay produced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles into limited large format venues in international territories. Greg Foster, CEO of IMAX Entertainment, explained the move in an official statement, praising the film saying, "Longtime partners Michael Bay and Jonathan Liebesman have done a wonderful job of updating this classic franchise for a next-generation audience."

On the surface, this sounds like a vote of confidence. Paramount has created a very strong relationship with IMAX, thanks to films like Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol and the Transformers sequels.However, despite this previous history, I'm more convinced that it's more of a hedge bet. After all, if the film is that good, why wouldn't IMAX release the film in domestic theaters? Much like Battleship, Cowboys and Aliens, and The Lone Ranger before it, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles looks like it's the latest film to be released on international IMAX screens in order to try and boost box office numbers abroad in case of a weak domestic opening.

Think about it: Guardians of the Galaxy opens a week before Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with a full IMAX release, and judging Marvel Studios' track record, there's a good chance that it could stay in first place for two to three weekends. To make sure they can stay competitive, Paramount might have agreed to this type of release strategy as a sort of damage control for a film that has been met with mixed audience reaction since it was first announced. The move could end up being a repeat of Battleship's strategy - which went to international IMAX theaters while The Avengers was cleaning up in its third week of box office release (a box office release that also included an IMAX release window)

On a more positive note, this move could be motivated by the success Paramount had with World War Z being released in international IMAX screens, which was then followed by a week long run in limited domestic venues. That domestic release was probably secured on the back of the film's success overcoming a tidal wave of negative press it had incurred during its production, and it only sweetened the pot on a film that had become a bankable investment overnight.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles hits theaters domestically on August 8th, and if the folks at IMAX are to be believed t just might surprise audiences with how good it is. At the very least, it should be able to give Into The Storm (another film with a domestic IMAX platform release) a run for its storm chasing money in late August. Let's just hope that Michael Bay doesn't leave his producer's chair to give input on the IMAX transfer, as the job he did with the pyramid set piece for Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen was horrific.
