The Rogue Movie Network and IAR are proud to present this exclusive conversation with John Cusack and director James McTeigue about The Raven. Cusack and McTeigue discussed the new film, looking for original material, McTeigue's habit of making revenge movies, why Cusack was right for the role, Poe's literary influence, and the reasons why this fictional story lends more scope to the author's life than a proper biopic would.
Everybody knows that in order to break out of prison, you need a friend to smuggle you a ail-nay ile-fay baked inside of a cake.* A trio of brand new stills from the upcoming third Men in Black movie suggests that the cake part of a jailbreak remains true even when aliens are breaking out of a space-prison.

This month's The Raven is no ordinary thriller. The film stars John Cusack as inventor of the detective novel and American literary legend Edgar Allan Poe, with the author hunting down a vicious murderer whose crimes are patterned after Poe's prose and poetry.
Such a uniquely fictionalized historical story deserves an appropriately singular behind-the-scenes video, and now it has one thanks to the one and only Olga Kay.
Five new behind the scenes images from Men in Black III are now viewable online. These images include nary a glimpse at stars Will Smith, Josh Brolin, or Tommy Lee Jones, though. Instead, each and every one is focused on Rick Baker, the man responsible for creating the franchise's practical alien creatures via makeup effects.
Baker's on the job with at least one of those extraterrestrials in every picture, two of which also show off Jemaine Clement as bad guy Boris, an interstellar biker whose longstanding beef with Agent K sends him back in time to eliminate his nemesis.
Sony Pictures released a theatrical trailer for Men in Black 3 yesterday, giving audiences a good feel for the time-travel plot, lots of Will Smith mugging comedically, and Josh Brolin doing his Tommy Lee Jones impression. The collective response to that trailer seems to be, "Yeah, I guess that's what I expected Men in Black 3 to look like." Hot on the heels of that trailer, there are now ten new images from the sequel, providing first looks at quite a number of new characters.
Synopsis: Agents J (Will Smith) and K (Tommy Lee Jones) are back… in time. J has seen some inexplicable things in his 15 years with the Men in Black, but nothing, not even aliens, perplexes him as much as his wry, reticent partner. But when K’s life and the fate of the planet are put at stake, Agent J will have to travel back in time to put things right. J discovers that there are secrets to the universe that K never told him — secrets that will reveal themselves as he teams up with the young Agent K (Josh Brolin) to save his partner, the agency, and the future of humankind.
Last Friday, Sony let it known that this week would kick off with a full theatrical trailer for Men in Black 3. It's Monday, so a new trailer for the sequel to 1997's Men in Black is now available to view.
It's got pretty much everything you'd expect from a trailer in this franchise, including a neuralyzation, Will Smith in comedy mode, shiny MiB technology, Tommy Lee Jones deadpanning, nifty production design, a surprising amount of big budget action, and hey, an alien that looks like a giant catfish.
