July 21, 2011 Superman Returns was doomed to fail from the beginning. Brandon Routh didn't stand a chance from minute one of that movie. However, he looked really good in the costume. Luckily it didn't kill his career completely. The producers of the movie spent $10 million dollars on a scene that they never put in the actual movie.
July 15, 2011 While doing a police ride along in L.A. Jake Gyllenhaal and fellow actor Michael Pena, witnessed a gang related shooting scene. They are preparing for a movie called "End of Watch
."
June 14, 2011 Summertime is fun. However, Summertime in Amarillo has been down right hot. Seriously Mother Nature, 106 degrees yesterday. Was that really necessary? What do you do when it is so hot to stay outside? Yes, I know you can hop in a pool but you can only do that for so long before you turn into a prune.
May 26, 2011 Memorial Weekend usually brings some big movies to the big screen and this year they are big sequels. Plus, they have been release a day early, today!
Since we can’t spend the entire Memorial Day weekend barbecuing, many Americans observe the day by hopping over to the local cinema to take in a blockbuster movie and some free air conditioning.
Memo
When a Hollywood movie is shot, the microphones are only focused on picking up the dialogue. This means most of the background noise is lost, and it is up to an artist called a "Foley artist" to go back and recreate this background noise in post-production.
In this clip, Foley artist Gary Hecker, who got his start working on "The Empire Strikes Back," demonstrates the unexpected techniques a Foley artist will use to make movies sound right.
Here is what will be coming to a theater near you this weekend.
February 2, 2011 You know how you'll be watching a movie and something would happen and you'd find yourself thinking, "that would never happen in real life." I guess that is where our suspension of disbelief kicks in. That happens a lot in movies and I mean a lot.
January 10, 2011 I love movies form the 80's my favorites just happen to be directed by John Hughes, however a few from the 80's that weren't a Hughes movie are my favorites as well. One of those choices just happen to be the Ghostbuster's franchise.
January 6, 2011 If you missed the People's Choice Awards or if you just want to relive some of the glitz and glam enjoy these photos from the event.
December 21, 2010 Since things will slow down here at the station for the Holidays, I figured it would be time to catch up on some movies.
