Men in Black III IMAX 3D Movie Review
When we spoke with Ken Ralston and Jay Redd of Sony Pictures Imageworks, they described this movie just as it was: a collection of plausible alternate realities. It is at this point in the Men in Black series that they’re able to take for granted the fact that most of their audience will have seen a previous installment, Men in Black I or II, and can move forward with the characters to explore new non-origin adventures. This Men in Black takes everything positive from the first two films and hits a home run with not just a fabulous new story, but exquisite visuals and a collection of engaging characters as well.
Prometheus: SlashGear meets Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace, Guy Pearce and Logan Marshall-Green
The alien creatures in Prometheus might arguably steal the show, but whether they’re antagonist, host or just plain meat, the human cast is equally important. SlashGear sat down with stars Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace, Guy Pearce and Logan Marshall-Green after the Prometheus world premiere to talk post-curtain rumors, working in the shadow of Ripley, and how the whole film might actually be a robot love story.
Ridley Scott talks Prometheus with SlashGear: Candid & Uncut
Director Ridley Scott is a man who needs little introduction: the genius behind Gladiator, the original Alien and, of course, Prometheus. SlashGear sat down with Scott – along with Prometheus writer Damon Lindelof – shortly after the movie’s worldwide premiere, to talk director’s cuts, the difficult balance of religion and science, and to find out about “The F*cking Cappuccino Theory of Astrophysics.”

Prometheus: We talk Alien and tech with Ridley’s writer duo
Prometheus has arrived with a bang, Ridley Scott’s expansive Alien prequel, and SlashGear sat down with writers Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts to talk Quadrilogy canon, SpaceX and angry androids. Jointly responsible for a screenplay that has spawned intense debate and no small amount of controversy, both Lindelof and Spaihts have a history of creating science-fiction that’s as cerebral as it is explosive.
New Tomb Raider trailer shows grittier gameplay
It’s been a year since it was first announced that Ms. Lara Croft would be rebooted in a new Tomb Raider, and not too long ago we heard news that the refreshed franchise had been delayed to 2013. If you’re still a little bummed out that you won’t be tomb raiding until next year, Square Enix has released a lengthy gameplay trailer to give you a feel for the upcoming game and what to expect from the new Lara Croft.

Prometheus Movie Review and Red Carpet Coverage
Alien was all about dark, ominous spaces and a sense of intense claustrophobia and mounting tension – in part due to Ridley Scott’s withholding of the final Xenomorph in all its glory as the film reached its climax (along with hiding its comparably low-tech costume). Prometheus is the CGI-overspilling, determinedly 3D and generally expansive movie Scott could never make back in 1979. It’s a fraught process, returning to a story that not only helped make a career but shaped a genre, and Prometheus swings between sensation, horror and a sometimes uncomfortable philosophy.
Prometheus red carpet rolls out in London – join us today!
Today is the big day in London for those anxiously awaiting the very first showing of the sci-fi epic Prometheus, and we’re right there along with them on the red – or blue, rather – carpet! This event is taking place in Leicester Square with stars Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Guy Pearce, and Noomi Rapace as well as the director of the film Ridley Scott joining in on the fun tonight (or today, if you’re joining us from the USA.) We’ll be viewing the film as well as speaking with film producers, workers, and random Prometheus affiliates as they walk the carpet before the big show.
Dark Knight Rises new TV spot goes live
The newest tease of the upcoming Batman flick is making its way to TV stations throughout the United States. In case you haven't seen it, we have it in its full glory. Unlike the previous tone-heavy, story-light trailers that have come before it, this one focuses more on the intense conflict between Batman and Bane. Check it out below.
