The Grand Budapest Hotel hits cinemas this weekend marking another triumph for writer and director Wes Anderson. But what are the indie darling’s best and worst movies to date? We rank every feature length film in his canon in ascending order to find out… 8. Bottle Rocket It’s not that

It has been 12 years since Roman Coppola last made a film — the thoroughly underrated CQ — but in that time he has kept busy, co-writing Darjeeling Limited and Moonrise Kingdom (for which he received an Oscar nomination last month), and working with his father (Francis Ford Coppola) and his sister

Two new posters for the upcoming Oscar ceremony came our way earlier today. The Oscar race lacks a true front-runner even though it is that time of the awards season, but that might change as the Producers Guild of America (PGA) reveals its winners – including its best picture equivalent,

There is not much time left in the Oscar race. The most important awards announcement of the week came on Wednesday when the Producers Guild of America (PGA) revealed its nominees for the Daryl F. Zanuck Award for Producer of the Year in Theatrical Motion Pictures, which are: Argo, Beasts

Here’s hoping everyone’s had a great holiday season! But for avid Oscar watchers, this time of the year brings more than gay happy meetings and silent nights; it also gives us one of our favorite things: the heart of the Oscar season.

2012 was a great year at the movies, from long-awaited summer sequels to year-end Oscar bait. Established auteurs like Quentin Tarantino, Kathryn Bigelow, and Steven Spielberg padded their impressive résumés, while helmers like Joss Whedon and Rian Johnson realized their next level of potential. James Bond got dark, Emma Watson

Each of the top eight races boasts a front-runner or two, but what about the other three or four nominees in each race? It’s both a frustrating change of pace and a welcome one. It makes predicting the Oscars more difficult, but it also makes pinpointing the season a bit more exciting, doesn’t it?

We’re at the point where it’s better to throw in and summarize some official predictions, updating them as we move along, than to summarize the events of the week. Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln, the most nominated film at the Screen Actors Guild’s SAG Awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s Golden Globes,

We might as well talk about some actual awards. The New York Film Critics Circle and National Board of Review both announce their picks next week, but the indie circuit brought the major awards updates of the week. The Gotham Independent Film Awards took place on Monday night and offered

I almost devoted the majority of this week’s Oscar Watching to Ben Affleck’s fact-based thriller Argo. But we talked about that one upon its Telluride premiere. The film still merits some space here since it opened this past weekend, but again, we’ve known where that one stands for some time,

This weeks biggest release is definitely Moonrise Kingdom. Many moviegoers and critics loved this film and it is probably in the running for some serious awards this season! Here’s a clip from the film: [springboard type=”youtube” id=”2OOenYz6tfc?rel=0″ frameborder=”0″ player=”scin001″ width=”560″ height=”315″ ] And as usual, please don’t hesitate to share

One of the most critically acclaimed movies all year, Moonrise Kingdom, is out on Blu-Ray/DVD today. Wes Anderson‘s detail-rich tale of young love looks absolutely beautiful in this Blu-Ray release. It’s just a shame that the extra features don’t quite live up to the film’s caliber. READ || Wes Anderson’s Outsiders Wes

In honor of the Blu-Ray/DVD release of Moonrise Kingdom, we’re giving away 2 copies of the Blu-Ray and a sweet prize pack that includes the soundtrack, a canteen, t-shirt, and more. Check out all the info on the release below and then scroll down to the bottom of the post to

Moonrise Kingdom director Wes Anderson is a master at poignantly depicting those who are a bit different from most of the other characters in the world around them. Regardless of gender, era, and even species, Anderson manages to perfectly represent characters that we can all relate to in one way

  We dished on Joss Whedon’s The Avengers last week, so let’s discuss the Oscar likelihood of two films with much smaller scales: John Madden’s The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom. To date, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel has grossed roughly $35.5 million in the States

This week on The Popcast we review Men In Black 3, Moonrise Kingdom, Snow White and The Huntsman and Turn Me On, Dammit! We also navigate our way through an asteroid field of technical difficulties whilst mapping out what Sci Fi universes we’d to like explore again. DOWNLOAD EPISODE REVIEWS
