Amanda Seyfried takes ‘Ted 2’ from a demoted Mila Kunis

Sorry Mila Kunis. Deadline reports Amanda Seyfried has scored the role of Mark Wahlberg’s primary love interest in Ted 2, and, as we know, there can never be more than one major female role in bro-comedies. It seems Kunis will have only a ‘tiny’ part in the sequel, though there is apparently no ill will between writer/director […]

Sydney Film Festival – Lovelace review

By Simon Miraudo June 11, 2013 Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman are fine documentarians. They struggle, however, to breathe life into their narrative features. Howl, a portrait of Allen Ginsberg and the publishing of his incendiary book of poetry, was basically turned into a drab courtroom drama, and not even some animated illustrations of Ginsberg’s […]

Poster Debut: Lovelace

The first poster for the upcoming film based on Deep Throat star Linda Lovelace, played by Amanda Seyfried, has been released by Latino-Review. The poster disappointingly comes across as bland and a touch predictable. It’s hard to tell what kind of movie Lovelace actually is, but we can probably expect something on the serious and unconventional side […]

Clock your body – In Time review

In Time – Starring Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried and Cillian Murphy. Directed by Andrew Niccol. Rated M. By Simon Miraudo. Andrew Niccol’s In Time has the air of a half-baked student production about it, and not just because some of the super young and sexy cast are forced to play eighty-year-olds. It’s set in the […]

Could a lawsuit block the release of In Time?

Seeking injunctions against films is all the rage these days. Back in May, a tattoo artist tried (and failed) to block The Hangover Part 2 from release after they used his artwork on their promotional materials without his permission. More recently, author Joe Quirk filed a suit against the makers of Premium Rush for stealing […]
