Bourne’s Identity Revealed in "Ultimatum"

We thought "The Bourne Identity" was revealed at the end of the first film, but his "Supremacy" confirmed there was more to the story. Now, Matt Damon promises that the third film, "The Bourne Ultimatum" will finally find Jason Bourne knowing his whole story.

First Official "Pirates 3" Pics!

We’ve seen a few sketchy-looking on-set snapshots from the third "Pirates of the Caribbean" flick, but not this pretty. Click on in to enjoy a few crisp-looking photos from "At Worlds End."

Trailer Bulletin: The Amazing-Looking "300"

Between RT and the other sites I write for, I’ve pretty much run out of adjectives for how awesome Zack Snyder’s "300" looks. And by "looks" I mean … wow. The visual fireworks are pretty darn dazzling. And now there’s even more in an all-new theatrical trailer.

Story Set for Next Bond Flick?

There’s already been a good deal of conjecture and gossip thrown around regarding the NEXT James Bond movie, and here’s the latest: Apparently the next 007 adventure will be based on an Ian Fleming story called "Risico" — but that story’s already been used for an earlier Bond flick!

Teaser Bulletin: The Horrible "Hills Have Eyes 2"

…and I mean "horrible" as in "scary," not as in "a terrible movie" — because obviously I haven’t seen the thing yet. Anyway, an early (and kinda creepy) teaser trailer for "The Hills Have Eyes 2" has hit the ‘net, so come check it out!
