Video: J.J. Abrams new post-apocalyptic TV series Revolution

Debuting this fall on NBC's 2012-12 schedule is Revolution, an hour-long drama with a sizeable sci-fi premise: what if everything that relied on electricity just stopped working all around the world at the same time? That's the starting point in the pilot, but as you'll soon see in the four-minute preview that NBC just released, the show picks up 15 years after darkness fell across the planet.

Lost co-creator and Star Trek director J.J. Abrams is one of the executive producers on the show. The Revolution pilot was directed by Jon Favreau (Iron Man) and Eric Kripke (creator of Supernatural) wrote the pilot and will exec produce the series.

Review: Game of Thrones, Season 2 Episode 6

Based off of George R.R. Martin’s 1,000-page opus A Clash of Kings, the second season of HBO’s Game of Thrones takes the first year’s intricate plot lines, character shadings, and thematic undercurrents and simultaneously expands and deepens them to a ridiculously exponential degree.  Or, at least, it’s supposed to – the actual doing just may prove to be a ways off from the source material’s being.

Avengers is on track for a $90 million dollar second weekend

Earlier today Marvel's The Avengers movie crossed the $300 million dollar mark at the domestic box office. Yesterday The Avengers took in about $29.1 million, down from the phenomenal $80 mil that the picture opened to one week earlier -- but that ain't nothing to sneeze at.

At close of business yesterday The Avengers had earned $299,143,000 -- give or take a hundred thousand or so. Factor in another $533 million dollars (so far) from the international ticket sales and the movie will stand at the cusp of one billion dollars in worldwide box office sales by Sunday evening.

For those of you that have seen The Avengers, you know what happens when a mouthy god of mischief meets a gamma-irradiated brute with a short temper. But what happens when Loki of Asgard sends a friend request to social media Hulk on Facebook?

I guess it's pretty much the same thing.

It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone on this planet that there will be a sequel to The Avengers. When any movie opens and sets a new record for its opening weekend, thoughts of a sequel should follow.

Trailer: Argo

The third movie that Ben Affeck has directed now has its first trailer. Argo is the title of the film, and it tells the story of how a young CIA agent hatched a crazy plan to get 6 rescued Americans out of Iran during the Iran hostage crisis of 1979. And it involves Hollywood and Star Wars, in a kind of roundabout way.

Has Ridley Scott's Prometheus killed Guillermo del Toro's At the Mountains of Madness?

There's one month left on the calendar before Prometheus opens in theaters and we can experience Ridley Scott's return to the universe of Alien. But even if Prometheus turns out to be a monster-sized success, a different filmmaker is lamenting over the loss of his opportunity to tell a bleak tale of mankind up against extraterrestrial existential horror.

James Cameron only in the business of doing Avatar sequels

The man that made two back-to-back highest-grossing movies of all-time has gone on the record saying that he's only interested in returning back to the world of Pandora. Of course I'm talking about Avatar and Titanic filmmaker James Cameron, the guy who's currently busy diving to the bottom of the ocean, investing in asteroid mining and writing the screenplays for Avatar 2 and Avatar 3.
