The 82nd New York Film Critics Circle Awards dinner still managed to be full of surprises, despite the fact that the winners were announced more than a month ago. The ceremony, held at downtown Manhattan’s clubby Tao restaurant on Tuesday night, handed out 13 awards and featured several special guests, including the eight foot-tall Bulgarian folk monster from the film “Toni Erdmann,” who helped introduce director Maren Ade before she received the award for Best Foreign Language Film.

It’s fitting that there’s a Shakespeare quote on the cover page of every script for “Empire,” as the expansion of Terrence Howard’s role as former drug dealer turned hip hop mogul Lucious Lyon has created a “King Lear” overtone to the second season.
But despite the amping up of family melodrama and musical performance, editor Raul Davalos chose not to over-cut, in order to preserve the impact.
“Essentially, the guideline for me is try to let the actors perform within the frame and there’s no reason to rely heavily on close-ups,” Davalos explained.
This season’s showrunners Ilene Chaiken, Danny Strong and Lee Daniels have raised the stakes with the hostile family takeover of the Empire music company, pitting Lucious against ex-wife Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) and his three sons: Andre (Trai Byers), the eldest and bi-polar CFO; Jamal (Jussie Smollett), the gay singer-songwriter and Lyon “black sheep”; and Hakeem (Bryshere Y. Gray), a rising hip hop star and favorite son of Lucious.
At the same time, there are 56 original songs to help explore the emotional highs and lows. “I try to avoid over-cutting the musical sections also, but sometimes you can’t change the choreography,”added Davalos, “and so I’ve been tending to let things play a little longer so you could actually see the performance.”
One of the musical highlights was a freestyle battle rap in “My Bad Parts” between Hakeem and the more aggressive Freda Gatz (Bre-z).
“Initially, there were six performances, three each, but because of time constraints we had to narrow it down to two per,” said Davalos. “And that was a massive undertaking, not only with the performances and their behavior during the delivery of the lines, but also with the crowd reaction. And there’s also the subtext going on between Cookie and Lucious. And we had a more extended rehearsal/training sequence for eventual the rap battle.”
A different confrontation occurs between Lucious and Hakeem under a bridge by the river at the conclusion of “Death Will Have His Day,” in which the father dares his son to shoot him: “You want to be king? Kill your father and sit on his throne. Shoot me so I don’t have to do it to you.”
As scripted, the scene took place in the middle of the episode, but the editor rearranged it to achieve greater clarity and impact. “We realize two things: this guy’s crazy and he’s not going to shoot Hakeem because he’s a star of the show,”Davalos recalled. “But then in today’s world of series, anybody can go any time, as ‘Game of Thrones’ has so eloquently told everyone. I tried again not to over-cut it and let things play within the frame as much as I could to get the best performances.”
As for the cliff-hanging finale (“Past is Prologue”) featuring a mysterious fatality: “There were actually too many threads and we had to pull back and focus on the main story,” Davalos said. “So it’s a big picture sort of challenge rather than cutting a particular performance.”

Eddie the Eagle
Notable: On 6 June 2015, the real-life Eddie Edwards himself told BBC news that the movie will be 90% made up. Edwards said, “I’ve been warned only 10 to 15% of it is based on my life.”
This looks like it could be a nice addition to the underdog collection, next to Cool Runnings perhaps. The case is solid and the story is well worth the big screen adaptation. I only hope they have at least 3 montages of Eddie falling down and getting back up again
Gods of Egypt
Notable: The film features no Egyptian actors.
Forget the fact that this movie is a prime example of racism in Hollywood, it just looks awful. The acting, the green screen effects, the everything...

Another remake? Shoot me.
Variety reports that the latest classic to get the remake treatment is John Ford’s 1962 film, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. The original starred John Wayne, James Stewart, Vera Miles, and Lee Marvin.
While the original was set in the old west, Variety reports that the remake may be set in a relatively contemporary period, such as 1980s Western Pennsylvania amid the retrenchment of the steel and auto industries. The decision by Paramount, who is producing the film, has not yet been made.
According to the report, Terence Winter, known for his screenplays for Wolf of Wall Street, Boardwalk Empire, and The Sopranos was working on a script for the film but has since backed out. There is no writer attached now.

"Shoot me in the face!" Many fanboys and gals might think directing Avengers 2 is any comic book nut.s dream come true, but when you.ve been at this as long as Joss Whedon has, this seems like the only appropriate response. The man behind one of the year.s most eagerly awaited blockbuster sequels recently spoke with SFX magazine about what it.s like tackling such a film, and, basically, the man.s exhausted. As quoted by The Hollywood Reporter, Whedon calls the experience "a nightmare" and "the hardest juggling act I.ve ever, ever had to pull off." If you were in his shoes, you might feel the same way.

Talking to SFX (via The Hollywod Reporter), Joss Whedon revealed that working on Avengers: Age of Ultron was quite a challenge, and it's no wonder he's not keen on returning for the two-part Avengers: Infinity War. "Shoot me in the face! It is a nightmare," he revealed. "I long for the simple movies like Serenity! This is the hardest juggling act I have ever, ever tried to pull off." That doesn't sound good, but the filmmaker made similar comments after the first movie, so there's every chance he could return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe somewhere down the line (Captain Marvel please, Joss?). As for where the sequel picks up with the team, Whedon added: "They’re very disparate characters. The joy of the Avengers is they really don’t belong in the same room. It’s not like the X-Men who are all tortured by the same thing and have similar costumes.

One of the things I most appreciate about Joss Whedon is the fact he isn't afraid of speaking candidly when it comes to his work on the Marvel movies and once again he is speaking his mind and while the headline may sound a little dire, it isn't having to do with onset troubles, but more with maintaining cohesion with the Marvel Cinematic Universe when it comes to bringing together so many different kinds of heroes for Avengers: Age of Ultron. Speaking with SFX Magazine (via THR), Whedon said of Age of Ultron, "Shoot me in the face! It is a nightmare. I long for the simple movies like Serenity! This is the hardest juggling act I have ever, ever tried to pull off." He elaborates on these thoughts adding, "They're very disparate characters.

If there was any doubt awards season was in full swing, this week’s growing list of screening events featuring lunches, dinners and receptions all aimed at luring Academy and Golden Globe voters should erase any question.
As I pointed out last week, the Academy’s “official” foreign-language screenings began on Monday night with Poland’s Ida and Hungary’s demanding but very fine White God. But that is just the beginning for both those films.
On Friday afternoon at Century City’s Craft restaurant, a private luncheon was held that drew several Oscar voters for an intimate opportunity to chow down with Ida director Pawel Pawlikowski.
White God’s filmmakers come into town next week for similar treatment with a private screening and reception aimed at those same voters. Saturday night, the terrific Swedish entry, Force Majeure, had a packed Beverly Hills screening followed by a Bouchon dinner reception...

When Joan Rivers died last week, a common refrain resounded throughout the movie sphere of Twitter: “Watch Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work.” It was good advice.

Although he’s become a valuable member of Rick Grimes’ group of survivors on AMC’s The Walking Dead, Daryl Dixon will always be a lone wolf at heart. It’s just in his nature. Celebrating this strong trait of the crossbow-toting, motorcycle riding warrior is Gentle Giant with the reveal of their new Daryl Dixon “The Lone Wolf” Statue, due out in mid-2015, that features Daryl accompanied by two wolves.
Featuring Daryl in his ever-ready pose: knife drawn, eyes alert, and crossbow against his back, this new statue is the result of a collaboration between Gentle Giant, AMC, and actor Norman Reedus, with the wolves added to reflect the character’s personality:
“Shoot me again, you best pray I’m dead.”

Shoot me.
Do you know what a MacGuffin is, Maestro? It's a person or thing around which the entire film revolves and yet turns out to have little importance to the story. It's a magnificent device whereby a good plot can be given a driving force without the indecency of explanation. Grand Piano (2013), from director Eugenio Mira, is heavy with devices. A hidden threat, a hostage, an assistant, an unplayable piece of music, a stage, a key, and the unknown fortune of a deceased mentor. A great metaphor for a movie like this would go something like "Mira played these elements like a concert pianist, perfectly timed with a soaring melody." It would be more accurate to use that final, inaptly named, unplayable piece: the speed is good, the instrument is lovely, but the tune strays into cacophony.
