Birds like us- How did this movie managed to afford award winning actors?

, 0

Birds like us is an animated film from Lion’s Gate that looks like a straight to DVD animated Mockbuster. It has an all-star cast of actors! It stars Jeremy Irons, Khalid Abdalla, Jim Broadbent and Alicia Vikander:. I have nothing against low-budget animated films because I enjoyed a lot of them but this one is from a mainstream movie studio.   Why do they have PS2 rendered graphics cutscenes as animation? Something is unsettling with the way these birds look. They should have compensated for the lack of budget with cute characters.  Lion’s gate could have tried polishing the character models just like how old videogames got remastered in HD. I can see Youtube influencer Saberspark giving this a chance because he likes low-budget animations. I made some research about this film. This is Bosnia’s first full-length animated movie but it is from 2017.  It is a labor of love directed by Faruk Šabanović and Amela Ćuhara. So I will give this a chance if the story and the acting can

Tomb Raider Sequel Movie Now In The Works

Tomb Raider Sequel Movie Now In The Works

, , , , 1

We’re just as surprised to be writing this as you are to be reading it, but the Alicia Vikander Tomb Raider movie is getting a sequel. There was a scene in the trailer where Lara was in a gun shop, being offered a familar pistol. She grabbed another, held them to the camera and said with raised eyebrows, “I’ll take two.” This turned out to be the very last shot of the film. It was an origin story, with heavy emphasis on the days before Lara started doing anything interesting. Who really asked for this? China, we suppose….when foreign tickets were pulled in, the first film netted over $274 million. If domestic sales were all that mattered, it would not have broken $57 mil. If anything, the new Tomb Raider gave us a new appreciation for the Jolie films — they may be cheesy in places, but at least stuff happens. The forecast looks better for the sequel, though maybe that’s just our unquenchable optimism. Amy Jump has been hired

The First Tomb Raider Trailer Is Here

It’s finally here, and ain’t it purty: our first two minute-long look at the new Tomb Raider movie. Actress Alicia Vikander has officially inherited the heiress from Angelina Jolie and Warner Bros is bringing us on her first adventure. Those who have played the self-titled reboot from a few years ago will recognize quite a few things in this trailer, from the same villains to some of the same scenarios and even a couple of the same death-defying jumps (we’re assuming Lara won’t become impaled on a branch this time). And those who were afraid Lara would be reduced to a “realistic” whimpering, groaning, suffering husk can rest easy: we see a lot of the original Lara in Vikander’s protrayal here. The real test will be if Vikander can balance Lara’s classic cockiness with enough vulnerability to make viewers empathize with her. We know Ms. Croft is badass enough to save the world, but for the movie to connect, we need to believe there’s a chance she won’t. Despite all

The new Tomb Raider movie is less than a year away now and EW sat down with actress Alicia Vikander, the new Lara Croft, as she discussed the shorts she’s fitting into and the responsibility that goes with it. For Vikander, taking on the role of an action heroine is a first for her — and the fulfillment of a career goal. “I have mostly done dramas and indie films in my career but I don’t know how many times I’ve watched big adventure films like Indiana Jones or The Mummy. I love to get embraced in all those big journeys and to do an action role has always been a child’s dream of mine.” It was a dream that felt close to impossible until recently. “I went to the cinema and saw Wonder Woman the other day. It’s a mixture of joy and sadness pouring over me, as I was thinking, ‘Oh, my God, I haven’t seen women onscreen like that.’ And I wondered how many stories there have

Walton Goggins (The Shield, Justified) has announced he’s joining the cast of Hollywood’s next Tomb Raider film — which will be a reboot that stars Alicia Vikander as the iconic Lara Croft. If you can’t tell by the photo, he’s going to be the bad guy — a rival raider who tries to trip Lara up. Some people just have a mug for villainous roles. Goggins announced his inclusion in the film to his Instagram followers, by tweeting his copy of the script under a fedora off-camera. Oh, what have you done, you fool? You’ve tweeted a script image with a front page of such thin stock that we can see the first page of the movie’s script below it! Not with the naked eye, but with assistance. Booting up Photoshop: Is it clearer now? Here’s the bits we can make out….. DAY ….of loud BREATHING. (unintelliglble)… …it. Like someone running for her life. So….. ….when we OPEN ON: ….LOTT (21) to a boxing ring. …surface is sweat-stained. Lara spars

What To Expect From The New Tomb Raider Film

What To Expect From The New Tomb Raider Film

When the Tomb Raider gaming series was rebooted in 2013, it immediately seemed like Square Enix was onto something. This was the epitome of a classic game series ideally suited to a modern reboot; the action and beauty of the franchise was always destined for what current-gen consoles are capable of. Inevitably (and luckily for fans), the game led to a sequel in the form of 2015’s Rise Of The Tomb Raider, which was nominated for multiple game of the year awards. There was also a mobile spinoff called Lara Croft GO, which is one of several similarly styled apps that Square Enix has designed and is effectively a puzzle game based on the Tomb Raider series. But even more exciting is the fact that 2013’s Tomb Raider appears to have laid the foundation for a film reboot as well. Alicia Vikander, of Ex Machina, The Danish Girl, and Jason Bourne, has been confirmed as the new Lara Croft, and release is scheduled for 2018. So here’s a bit about

Hollywood’s Next Lara Croft Has Been Chosen

Hollywood’s Next Lara Croft Has Been Chosen

It’s been rumored for years that Hollywood wants to give the Tomb Raider movie franchise another shot, after their first attempt sputtered out at two films. The new, critically acclaimed Tomb Raider games from Square-Enix have inspired them to try something similar with the next movie: a prequel, starring a green, fresh-out-of-the-mansion Lara Croft. The past few weeks, the story has been that the studio was looking at Daisy Ridley to fill the role, which would have been fine. But it turns out the honor goes to Alicia Vikander…..wait, who? She’s been around — you just haven’t been paying attention. Vikander has been seen in “The Danish Girl,” “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.” and as the bot-girl in “Ex Machina.” Her next role, playing opposite Matt Damon in the next Bourne movie, is already in the can and coming out this summer. Warner Bros. says despite the Ridley rumors, Vikander was always their first choice for Lara. The new Tomb Raider movie will be directed by a man named “Roar.”
