The bumper issue includes a massive 2013 preview covering 170 upcoming movies and spanning 50 pages! We`ve painstakingly compiled details and trivia about these movies for your reading pleasure, and have also listed them according to their release dates for your easy reference. Time to start planning your movie-going budget for the year!
The folks behind Oz The Great And Powerful are definitely hoping to part us from our hard-earned dollars to recoup their US$200 million investment in the film. To make sure your money is well spent on a cinema ticket, we literally took off to Los Angeles to see the man who would become a wizard as well as the women who would be his witches in a whirlwind tour of director Sam Raimi`s wonderful, whimsical new film. Check out our exclusive interviews with James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz.
Of course, this bumper issue is not complete without the tons of interviews and features we`re so used to spoiling you with. Coinciding nicely with the upcoming Oscars, we have an interview with Best Actor nominee Daniel Day-Lewis and director Steven Spielberg for their film, Lincoln – which is also nominated for Best Picture (page 80). There`s also an interview with Golden Globe winner for Best Director Ben Affleck about the DVD release of his Golden Globe-winning film Argo which was surprisingly only nominated for Best Film and not Best Director at the Oscars.
Fret not for those who prefer a little action to the heavier Oscar-bait dramas we`ve also secured interviews with action veterans Sylvester Stallone (Bullet To The Head) and Bruce Willis (A Good Day To Die Hard), amongst many others, so there`s definitely something for everyone.
