Night Shyamalan’s career, the curious case of Jeremy Renner, the pleasures of mindless entertainment, the start of the new Han Solo solo movie, who should be the next Doctor and more. Plus, the usual even more. But don’t worry, no politics (mostly).

Director M. Night Shyamalan has partnered with Jason Blum of Bloomhouse Productions in order to produce a self-financed, low budget project he had been keeping under wraps. The film, called The Visit, is intended as a return to his earlier work and to productions outside the ‘traditional’ studio system.
The Visit concerns a brother and sister visiting their grandparents’ isolated Pennsylvania farm. Eventually, the youngsters discover the seniors are keeping a dark secret and it quickly becomes apparent to the children they may not be going home.
The Visit was written, directed and self financed by Shyamalan and shot near the director’s Pennsylvania home. The partnership with Blumhouse Productions allowed for a first-look arrangement with Universal and the company specialized in low budget genre pictures. Blumhouse’s most recent successful production was Ouija.
M. Night Shyamalan produced the film with Blum and Marc Bienstock, with Steven Schneider and Ashwin Rajan executive producing.
Universal Pictures has set September 11, 2015 as the release date.

In our opinion at least, Will Smith can pretty much do no wrong. Even when he’s in a somewhat questionable movie, he still manages to come out looking good.
His latest, the sci-fi action movie After Earth, looks promising to continue that trend. The only real problem we can see so far is the director, M. Night Shyamalan.
Yeah, we used to think he was pretty great too. But now, not so much. What happened?
Anyway, a new trailer for After Earth has arrived and in it we see Smith and son Jaden, who also play father and son in the movie, crash-land on a hostile Earth a thousand years into the future. Needless to say (but we’ll go ahead anyway) things don’t go as they expect. To say the least.
Look for After Earth to arrive in theaters on June 7th. The trailer is after the break.

Will Smith is a movie star in the truest sence of the word. His charm and charisma are palpable in just about everything he does. Even the horrible films in his filmography have the faintest amount of watch-ability due to Smith. That track record is about to be put to the ultimate test.
Deadline is reporting that Will Smith and his son Jaden have signed on to star in M. Night Shyamalan’s currently untitled sci-fi epic. Here’s the scoop:
The story takes place far in the future where a young boy has to navigate an abandoned planet on a space ship that has crashed. On board is his estranged father.

While M. Night Shyamalan is getting bashed for his work on The Last Airbender, he’s actually staying pretty close to his roots with another project called The Night Chronicles, a series of films that he helped get started, and a few that he even created, while also letting other filmmakers have a crack at it.
The first in the lineup is Devil, which is about a group of strangers that get stuck in an elevator and one of them “is not what they seem.” Sure, the film is a little bit like a Tales From the Crypt episode, but that’s not a problem since there hasn’t really been a good horror anthology in a long time.
Devil is filled with relative unknowns, with a few C-listers. Geoffrey Arend may be the most recognizable face, and you may know him best as Christina Hendrick’s husband. Also along for the ride are Chris Messina, Caroline Dhavernas, and Bokeem Woodbine.
Directed by the team that brought you Quarantine, you can expect to see plenty of technology-based scares in the film, and the trailer does it some justice.
Check it out after the jump. Catch M. Night Shyamalan’s Devil in theaters on September 17th.

Welcome to this week’s On the Radar where we delve into all corners of the entertainment, tech and geek Internets for news, views and whatnot that may have escaped our regular coverage this week. Let is know if we missed something interesting. Otherwise, on to the links!
• Mel Gibson is, apparently, still a racist. Who knew? Oh yeah, we did.
• You will not see any more Sex and the City movies. Yes, try to console yourself.
• Do you like Toy Story? How about porn? If so, this is for you.
• The Twilight Saga: Eclipse opens bigger than The Dark Knight. Suck it nerds.
• In other movie news, people really hate The Last Airbender.
• Here’s a preview of that show where people act stupid and have stupid nicknames. Which one? Take you’re pick.
• Apparently, men are attracted to women with small feet. Really, it’s science and stuff.

To all who have survived the month of June by successfully traversing lines of blood-sucking twihards, I congratulate you. You can relax now because the steaming month of July is less about men of iron and teenagers who use SPF 60 and more about whiz kids, dreamers, and spies.
Movie studios may appear to be throwing grenades into your trench, but don’t let the eye-catching blue and orange of the movie posters fool you. These grenades are merely filled with smoke and a good amount of marketing slickness. They will explode in your face only when you yank the pin by paying $12. Then, they will have truly won the battle. Instead of succumbing to the propaganda, arm yourselves wisely with the reviews below.
Those in the know will hold their breath until August when the golden generation of action heroes team up to save the world, kick some ass before kicking the bucket, and get sweaty enough to take off their shirts- giving both men and women some very good reasons for sitting in an air-conditioned multiplex.

This week Chris and Matt get down to business with all manner of new topics, observations, questions and discussions. Among the items on the agenda this time around are the new Green Hornet trailer, the Dr. Strange movie and who should play the character, a bit more talk about E3, Jason Momoa as Conan, M.

The boys also made some picks this week including Matt’s pick of the book The Man Who Heard Voices: Or, How M. Night Shyamalan Risked His Career on a Fairy Tale and Chris’ pick of the Brian K. Vaughn comic Dr. Strange: The Oath.
