Pitch Perfect was the unexpected hit of 2012. The film took the world by storm with its hilarious collegiate a cappella groups covering of foot-tapping chart topping top 40s songs, witty humor, and its simple yet sweet underdog story. It was rather easy at the time to write the film off based on those things alone, but because it was just so much fun to watch, the Pitch Perfect became one of the top box office grossing films. Three years later, we are now getting a sequel that was expected to be an exciting follow-up to the original. Unfortunately, it falls short of that. Still, Pitch Perfect 2 is every bit as cheery as its predecessor, it just doesn’t know how to express itself like the original film.

Here Elizabeth Banks makes her directorial debut after having produced the first one. Using a script from Kay Cannon (who also returns), the sequel makes a few changes, with some of the original characters looking towards a future beyond collegiate a cappella singing, while others are just stepping foot into it.

Pitch Perfect 2

Pitch Perfect 2 sees the return of Becca (Anna Kendrick), Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson) and the rest of the Barden Bellas singing their way to the world championships after being stripped of their US title thanks in part to a very public wardrobe malfunction. Standing in their way are the German a cappella Champions Das Sound Machine (DSM) lead by Kommissar (Birgitte Hjort Sørensen) and Pieter Krämer (Flula Borg) whose team are the epitome of perfection.

We were recently invited the film’s press day were we had a chance to sit down with fellow journalists to talk to newcomers Sørensen and Borg about the auditioning process, improve, dancing, and more. Check out the full interview below.

Automata Header Image

A trailer and a pair of posters have been released for Automata, an upcoming sci-fi flick starring Antonio Banderas.

The movie is set in the year 2044, at a time when the robots we’ve created have evolved past set protocols—never harm any life form, never alter itself or others—to a point where they’re at the same level of intelligence as humans, and a takeover as the dominant life form on the planet is unfolding. It centers on an insurance agent accident investigator (Banderas) who finds himself caught in the middle of this conflict between human intelligence and artificial intelligence.

While the idea of robots rising up and taking out humans is nothing new, Automata looks pretty darn awesome, like Blade Runner fusing together with a Neill Blomkamp movie, and should appeal greatly to sci-fi fans. You can see the two posters and watch the trailer below.
