2012 Summer Blockbusters - The Winners & The Losers
Sometimes the task of getting people to flock to the movie theatres during the summer months can be tricky, as some would rather soak up the rays from the sun instead of those coming from the projector. But if the soothing sensation of a cool, dark room isn't enough to attract the audience, what is? Here's a recap of this summer's hits and misses at the box office.
The season kicked off big time with "The Avengers," which brought in a record $207.4 million during its first weekend. Performances by stars such as Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson brought life to Iron Man,...

Review: 'Total Recall' Is Entertaining But Not All That Memorable
This is an action thriller about reality and memory. The film, directed by Len Wiseman (Underworld) is inspired by Philip K. Dick's short story 'We Can Remember It for You Wholesale'.
The time is the future...And it's a very bleak one indeed. Most of the earth, thanks to war, is now uninhabitable. There's only the United Federation of Britain, where the 'haves' live and the Colony where the 'have-nots' reside.
Here we meet factory worker Douglas Quaid (Colin Farrell) who even though he has a very hot wife (Kate Beckinsale) whom he loves, the dude is very unhappy. He feels something is m...

Total Recall And 8 Other 90s Film Remakes
Think it's too early to remake films from the 1990s? Think again. Total Recall, the sci-fi action hit from 1990, has the spotlight once again as its remake hits theaters this weekend. In honor of the occasion we took a look at films from the 1990s that have been repurposed - we use that word, because half of these films are ideas lifted from other countries.

Review: Carbon Copy Remake 'Total Recall' Forgets To Take The Good Stuff
Normally in the case of the famed ‘remake’ there is usually some room to put aside original flick stigma and focus on the updated outing as a film unto itself. Unfortunately the 2012 version of "Total Recall" plays so close to the chest on all copycat accounts that it’s hard to make such distinctions. In fact the new Len Wiseman helmed upgrade takes a ton of material from the five-star Paul Verhoeven classic – except everything that made it great.
If you know either the Philip K. Dick short story or the Verhoeven flick you know the drill – everyman Doug Quaid has a nice wife and a decent...

Kate Beckinsale Wears A Daring, Reptilian-Like Dress To 'Total Recall' Premiere
Kate Beckinsale made a fashion statement at the "Total Recall" premiere in Hollywood on Wednesday. The actress slithered down the red carpet in a textured green and black dress that looked like it was made of snake skin.
Few actresses could pull off a dress like that and make it look good, but Kate managed to do so.
In the remake of the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger film, Kate has a fight scene with Jessica Biel. Beckinsale recently told Allure magazine, "It's not like a naked, porno, mud-wrestling-in-a-bar sort of fight, it's a real fight."

'Total Recall' Actress Forced To Explain She Only Has Two Breasts
Most of the time, when someone only has a few minutes of screen time in a film, they don't get a whole lot of attention. You know, cameos, walk-ons and extras don't often take the spotlight away from superstars. But when you have three breasts, well, that tends to change more things than just your bra size.
Case in point: According to The Hollywood Reporter, Total Recall actress Kaitlyn Leeb has become a viral sensation thanks to her recent appearance at Comic-Con in character — and now she wants the world to know that her character's third breast is just part of the costume.
Sorry, guys....

'The Adjustment Bureau' Lawsuit Re-Filed
The trustees of Philip K. Dick's estate have re-launched their legal battle with the producers of Matt Damon thriller The Adjustment Bureau, two months after the initial lawsuit was dropped.
The late author's executors claim the estate is owed money from the 2011 adaptation of the writer's sci-fi story, Adjustment Team, and filed a lawsuit last year targeting director George Nolfi, producer Michael Hackett, Media Rights Capitol and its subsidiaries.
The case was dropped in February after a judge threw out key parts of the suit, but representatives of the Philip K. Dick Testamentary Trus...

'Total Recall' Trailer Showcases Summer Thrills And Action
If you are on the fence about whether a Total Recall remake is a good idea, perhaps the first full-length trailer could convince you that this is a film worth checking out.
The trailer sets up what we already know from the original: The main character Douglas Quaid (played by Colin Farrell this time around) is bored with his everyday life. When he learns about a service that implants memories, he thinks he has found a way to feel fulfilled - until a squad of troops begins shooting up the place.

Jessica Biel: 'I Was Really Interested In Pits Full Of Snakes'
Jessica Biel steams up the April 2012 issue of W magazine and talks about "pits full of snakes", her apologetic teen years and filming all the action in her upcoming remake of Total Recall.
Jessica spoke with W's Lynn Hirschberg, who asked the newly engaged (to Justin Timberlake!) actress about the first move she ever saw.
"The Goonies. I never identified with girls, and the cast was all boys. Girls were nervous about going into caves; they were scaredy-cats - and I wasn't into that at all," she says. "I loved the idea of being with a crew and having an adventure.
