‘Connected’ is a kids’ movie about the dangers of tech obsession

[ad_1] Connected starts as a story about a dad upset that his kids spend too much time on their devices. He attempts to change that by taking them on a family road trip, but things change quickly when robots turn evil and technology as a whole seems to revolt.

Netflix’s first ‘Transformers’ teaser reveals a hopeless war

[ad_1] The teaser also gives a peek at the “new look” animation style, which ultimately boils down to cel-shaded CG but fits well with larger-than-life battling robots. On that note, you can expect plenty of fights — Rooster Teeth and Polygon Pictures haven’t forgotten one of the reasons why kids (and curious adults) latched on […]

Eli Roth is directing the ‘Borderlands’ movie

[ad_1] Avi and Ari Arad, best known for their work on Marvel titles like Iron Man and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, are producing. Chernobyl‘s Craig Mazin is responsible for the script.

‘Harriet’ star Cynthia Erivo’s sci-fi podcast is becoming a movie

A ‘The Witcher’ anime film is coming to Netflix

[ad_1] Netflix clearly knows its adaptation of The Witcher is a hot property (shifting metrics aside), and it’s determined to milk that success for all it’s worth. The service has confirmed rumors that it’s working on an anime movie offshoot, The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf. It’s not saying much about the plot besides talk […]

‘Uncharted’ movie loses yet another director

[ad_1] If accurate, Knight is the latest casualty of a production that has faced hurdles for years. Veteran director David O. Russell was initially attached to the Uncharted move, only to be followed up by Stranger Things‘ Shawn Levy and 10 Cloverfield Lane‘s Dan Trachtenberg. The project has been around for long enough that Wahlberg, […]

‘Cats’ is getting new special effects while it’s still in theaters

[ad_1] Reportedly, the updated movie is available for theaters to download today (December 22nd) from a satellite server, while those theaters that can’t download it will get a hard drive by December 24th.
