Martin Scorsese To Be Honored at 2010 Golden Globes with Cecil B. DeMille Award
9 hours ago | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
In January, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) will bestow the Honorary Cecile B. DeMille Award to Martin Scorsese for “his outstanding contribution to the entertainment field,” to which we say “Congratulations, Mr. Scorsese.” Of course, any award honoring Scorsese’s career is well-earned by the prolific and influential director. His lengthy and diverse filmography naturally contains movies which flopped and received no support from film critics, but when you look at his hits, he has left an unforgettable stamp on not only American cinema, but on audiences the world over. That his work continues to improve and defy simple definition is an inspiration to aspiring filmmakers and a challenge to his peers. There’s only one complaint people have about the awards Scorsese receives: they’re overdue.
Hit the jump to read the full press release. The 67th Annual Golden Globes will air on January 17, 2010. Martin Scorsese’s next film, »

The Hollywood Foreign Press has just announced Martin Scorsese will be the recipient of the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his "outstanding contribution to the entertainment field" at the 2010 Golden Globe Awards. He follows up last year's recipient Steven Spielberg who, perhaps not so coincidentally, was presented the award by Scorsese.
Scorsese won his first Best Director Oscar in 2007, but before that won a Golden Globe for directing Gangs of New York as well as also winning a Globe for The Departed.
The 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards will take place on January 17 and hosted Ricky Gervais. The ceremony will be broadcast live coast to coast Sunday, January 17 on NBC (5 to 8 pm Pt, 8 to 11 pm Et) from The Beverly Hilton. Nominations will be announced at 5:00 a.m. on Tuesday, December 15. »

Depp, Clooney and DiCaprio Battling For Sinatra Role
27 October 2009 11:07 AM, PDT | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »
Back in May of this year we reported on the fact that Martin Scorsese was going to be taking on the legendary figure of Frank Sinatra in a biopic about the singer, simply titled Sinatra. Along with that news came word that a couple of actors were lined up to play the titular man, in the form of Johnny Depp and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Depp was reportedly the studio’s first choice for the role, while DiCaprio’s name was being thrown around as a possibility more than anything, particularly because he’s lead many of Scorsese’s movies over the past few years (The Aviator, The Departed, Gangs of New York).
However, we get news today - thanks to The Guardian (via Cinemablend) that DiCaprio may be more in the running to play Sinatra than we first thought, along with the already-mentioned Depp (who I guess is seriously being looked »

U2 at the Rose Bowl: Bigger, but Better?

By Steve Pond
Five and a half years ago, Bono stood in a backstage hallway at the Kodak Theater and wrestled with the idea of being big and grandiose.
“I f---ing hate the room,” said U2’s front man, an hour after finishing what had been a tense, rough rehearsal of “The Hands That Built America,” a song from Martin Scorsese’s “Gangs of New York” that had won the band an Oscar nomination and a spot performing on the show.
It wasn’t just the Kodak itself he hated; it was also the Oscar set, with a giant, fluted shape that lit up behind the ... »

PlayStation 3 Adds Netflix to Its Queue This November
26 October 2009 8:54 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
It took a few years, but the PlayStation 3 has finally become competitive in the mainstream marketplace and no longer giving the Xbox 360 a free ride. After slimming down the size of their system earlier this year along with slashing the price from $400 to $300, the PlayStation 3 will now allow users to stream their Netflix “Watch Instantly” queue to their console. Hit the jump for details as XBox 360 fanboys snarl and gnash their teeth.
For no additional cost, anyone with at least an $8.99 monthly subscription to Netflix (which includes unlimited streaming and one movie mailed out at a time) will be able to stream their “Watching Instantly” queue to their PlayStation 3 console. Xbox 360 users will laugh mightily at this as they’ve enjoyed this technology since last year. And then a PS3 owner will mention that they’ll be watching their streaming movies via Wi-Fi so suck on that. Following that, a »

Ridley Scott Remaking UK's Red Riding Trilogy for Columbia
15 October 2009 3:53 PM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »
Columbia Pictures announced earlier today via Variety that they've acquired remake rights to the UK TV mini-series known as Red Riding, a trilogy of feature films that have been playing the festival circuit this year. The studio is "negotiating" with Steve Zaillian (Gangs of New York, American Gangster) to write the script and Ridley Scott (Gladiator, American Gangster, Body of Lies) to direct. Zaillian has already been working with Columbia, as he was hired to rewrite the Steven Soderbergh Moneyball script. Both Scott and Zaillian will produce the remake along with Andrew Eaton of Revolutionary Films, who produced the mini. Alright, so I saw part one of the Red Riding trilogy at the Telluride Film Festival back in September. It's titled 1974 and stars the very talented Andrew Garfield, however, I hated it. I disliked it so much that I walked out of it after the first film and didn't even »

tMF Talkback: Leonardo DiCaprio and Joseph Gordon-Levitt - Two awesome actors in similar mode?
5 October 2009 9:05 PM, PDT | The Movie Fanatic | See recent The Movie Fanatic news »
If you're going to ask me which movie of Leonardo DiCaprio I remember the most, I'd say - 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape', and I'll have to add that even though Johnny Depp headlines the flick, both him and Leo stood out with their heartfelt performances- with DiCaprio earning an Oscar nom for his role. While I am inclined to say that Leo's role appears to be the more challenging, the acclaim he received stems from the fact that he really put himself into Arnie and he became that character.

Interview With The Vampire: John C. Reilly
5 October 2009 | shocktillyoudrop.com | See recent shocktillyoudrop news »
Let's be honest. John C. Reilly isn't exactly the first person you would think of when "vampire" comes to mind. Yet, here he is, starring in Cirque Du Freak , director Paul Weitz's adaptation of the first three novels in author Darren Shan's series. Surprisingly enough, he pulls it off as Larten Crepsley, in spite of that wild hair, not to mention everyone's current perception of Reilly being a comedy actor ( Walk Hard , Step Brothers ). However, if you trace his career, he has always been one to throw us off guard, from his early days in Brian De Palma's Casualties of War to Dolores Claiborne , Paul Anderson's Boogie Nights and Magnolia , Chicago and Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York and The Aviator . This month, he's a 220-year-old bloodsucker who... »
Viggo Mortenson Takes a Break from Acting — The Hobbit Losing Its Aragorn?
10 September 2009 8:45 AM, PDT | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
Several sources are noting that Viggo Mortenson has hinted in an interview with Men's Journal that he plans on taking an indefinite break from acting. Some are going so far as to say that he's permanently throwing in the towel, although that seems like a far-fetched conclusion. Nevertheless, Mortenson definitely indicated that he's burned out and needs to go on a temporary hiatus.
I have no plans to do another movie. I don't know what's going to happen. I'm open to seeing how I feel in a while, but right now I'm not saying yes to anything. My agent is like, "Well, if you don't do anything, people will forget about you ..." I just feel like I've taken on too much for a while.
This means that The Road might be Mortenson's last movie for a while. Cinema Blend points out that this could be bad news for Lord of the Rings fans, »

DiCaprio 'Drawn' To Dark Roles
2 September 2009 12:11 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Leonardo DiCaprio is convinced he is unsuitable for comedy movies - because he's too "drawn" to tragic movie parts.
The 34 year old has mainly taken on dramatic portrayals in his 18-year career, in films including Oscar-winning Titanic, Romeo + Juliet, and Gangs of New York.
He stars in forthcoming Martin Scorsese thriller Shutter Island - and the actor was quick to sign up to the project after reading the dark script.
DiCaprio tells Total Film magazine, "People say I do tragic characters, but I find them very interesting and more compelling. I'm drawn towards them.
"I want to be moved during a cinematic experience and this movie changes form in a lot of ways. No-one is going to see this movie and say it's not interesting." »
