The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials is in cinemas this weekend (at least in Australia anyway). The sequel is holding steady on the Tomatometer as we speak, so hopefully it’ll like up to the quality of the first flick. Let’s kick off the ELO with one of the stars from the flick Kaya Scoledario.

After the jump, a tease on Transformers 5, some smart movie marketing, Kong will face off against Godzilla, we’ve all been pronouncing Voldemort wrong and M. Night Shyamalan made one of the best comedies of 2008. Continue reading →

It’s reaching the tail end of summer, so you can definitely expect a slow down at the box office. The new release is the Zac Efron fronted coming-of-age story in We Are Your Friends. Reviews have been mixed, so proceed with caution. Perhaps it would be a safer bet to see something like… The Man From U.N.C.L.E. instead. Alicia Vikander seems to be the it girl lately with plenty of films along the pipeline in the coming year. 

After the jump, a look at the two sides of Captain America: Civil War, Quentin Tarantino took apart It Follows, it’s been 15 years since Bring It On, Key and Peele explain how Gremlins 2 came about and movie villains love My So-Called Life! Continue reading →

Plenty to check out in cinemas this weekend. There’s the horror sequel Sinister 2. There’s also a Hitman reboot in Agent 47. Finally there’s the stoner/actioner American Ultra. I still got a lot of catching up to do with other flicks after the Melbourne Film Festival, so it might take me a little bit of time before I get around to these flicks. Anyway, it’s time for the ELO since it’s Saturday again, and let’s kick things off with Natalie Dormer.

After the jump, a rundown on the initial draft of Fantastic Four, Aliens 5 might be in development hell, Damon Lindelof has some harsh words for those who reacted negatively to Game of Thrones season 5, and Kingsman is not James Bond. Continue reading →

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. is in cinemas this weekend, so you can catch the Guy Ritchie directed spy actioner. So far, the buzz is generally positive. Anyway, gonna kick off the ELO with Lucy Hale. The season finale of Pretty Little Liars just aired. I never really got into the show, but perhaps I should reconsider…

After the jump, some tidbits on Heroes Reborn, a look at what went wrong for Fantastic Four, The Maze Runner is the underdog of YA films, Sesame Street is moving to HBO and catch District 9 in 8bit action. Continue reading →

The reviews are piling in and it ain’t looking good for the reboot of Fantastic Four despite a stellar cast and an up and coming director. At times I find it hard to believe that the current flick would be worse than the previous attempts at the dysfunctional Marvel family, but who knows! Anyway, let’s kick off the ELO with the leading lady from the flick Kate Mara. 

After the jump, Deadpool trailer hits the webs, Bill Hader joins the Nine-Nine, six seasons and a long wait for a movie, Ryan Adams channels his inner Taylor Swift, and check out some hilarious outtakes from Trainwreck. Continue reading →

The latest installment of the Mission Impossible franchise is in theatres this weekend (at least in North America anyway). The series continues to uphold its quality, given its continual fresh tomatometer rating. Anyway, since it’s a new MI film, that means there is a new leading lady. Kicking off the ELO is Rebecca Ferguson, who happens to kick a lot of ass in the movie.

After the jump, even Bruce Boxleitner has given up on Tron, some tidbits on Netflix, Key and Peele is ending soon, Drake gets the advantage in the feud with Meek Mill and differentiating between X-Men Days of Future Past comic vs. movie. Continue reading →
