Currently Browsing: "John Travolta"

Lionsgate has released two new posters for the upcoming actioner From Paris with Love, from Taken director Pierre Morel and French uber-producer Luc Besson.

If you remember correctly, back in December we posted an early teaser trailer for the next film from director Pierre Morel, who brought the house down earlier this year with Taken, and to say the least it was laughable. However, this poster is pretty cool.

This week on Shouting Match, Adam Sweeney and FSR Resident Devil’s Advocate Josh Radde get awkwardly revealing in a debate about who has had the better career: Denzel Washington or John Travolta.

Kevin Carr reviews this week’s new movies: The Taking of Pelham 123 and Imagine That.

After a couple good weeks with at least one good movie to enjoy, Kevin and Neil hit the dog days of the cinematic summer. The Fat Guys debate the ability of John Travolta to be a badass and wonder why Eddie Murphy is still making films. Neil also threatens to stab Kevin in the eyeballs.

The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 is basically Deja Vu 2: Pelham 1 2 3, but that’s not such a bad thing.

A new comedy from the director of Wild Hogs starring John Travolta and Robin Williams? Your summer just got officially awesome! (Even though the movie doesn’t open until November.)

Even the New York Times has noticed how there are more fat guys in the movies than fat guys at the movies. And they name them. We too are not afraid to name names.

God Bless the late great Paul Newman, but I don’t care if Cruise got his blessing for a remake of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the idea of Cruise as Sundance and John Travolta as Butch Cassidy, makes me want to hurl.

John Travolta hijacks a New York subway train and holds its passengers for ransom. Denzel Washington races against the clock to stop him. Things explode. Looks fun, right?

You can scratch another remake off the list of fifty or so that are in the works because the trailer for The Taking of Pelham 123 is playing in front of The International and officially has a poster. It’s coming for us all soon.

Sometimes when I prep for this column, I scrounge to find ideas. However, there are also weeks when entertainment news is so filled with stupid stories that I can’t help but gather them together. As a New Year’s present, I offer you this hodge podge of WTF stories from the past week.

Lets face it, John Travolta has done some really stupid movies in his day. And to his credit, no matter how ridiculous the character he generally gives himself the opportunity to pull it off without looking like a complete moron (save for that little blunder known as Battlefield Earth). But in the trailer below, which is for his upcoming movie From Paris With Love, Travolta takes the idiocy to a whole new level.

It’s been a year of comebacks, so we decided to take a look at a few stars who’ve made it all the way back from the void and a few that haven’t.

Have you ever heard someone use the word ‘ridonculous?’ Me neither. That is, until this nonsensical hybrid of ‘ridiculous’ and ‘donkey’ showed up in a Disney film…

Kevin and Neil swoon over the CGI Disney dog and show their fangs about a certain high school vampire. Neil gives some love to the new Star Trek footage while Kevin proceeds to offend him with some smarmy suggestions about the forbidden love of Bella and Edward.

Kevin Carr looks at Bolt and Twilight, in theaters this week with the FSR Report Card.

In honor of our 7 Days of 007 feature we have decided to bring back one of our favorite old school top ten lists. This week its all about Bond, James Bond.

Apple has released a set of clips from the upcoming Disney Animation Studios adventure Bolt, including a four minute chunk of the film’s opening sequence.

Walt Disney Animation has a film that recently caught my eye — a clever little tale about a Hollywood dog who believes that he is a superhero in real life. It is called Bolt, and it looks like it might be just the right movie to cure my end of the year animation blues.
