If Richard Linklater's latest film Boyhood is playing at a theater near you, don't wait any longer to see this touching, coming-of-age masterpiece. It's a brilliant portrayal of adolescence into the beginning of adulthood, marking a grand achievement in storytelling as it uses the same stars, including aging child actor Ellar Coltrane as Mason, over 12 years of shooting. Some have compared it to the narrative version of Michael Apted's Up documentary series as he revisits the same people very seven years. And that's prompted one reporter to ask Linklater if there's any potential for a sequel to follow the next stage of life for. At first, Linklater seemed daunted by the prospect of a sequel, but then he had a brilliant idea. Read on! Here's what Linklater told Empire magazine's Simon Crook (via SlashFilm) about his idea for a sequel: I asked Richard Linklater about a Boyhood sequel.

Amir here, with the weekend’s box office report. As expected, Guardians of the Galaxy topped the week’s chart, though it wasn’t quite expected that it would do this well. In true Marvel fashion, the previous record for the month of August has been blown up with a big bang, what with Guardians taking in nearly $25m more than Bourne Ultimatum. As I’m sure you know, I haven’t yet seen the film. Nathaniel has but is not enthused.

In his review of South Korean director Bong Joon-ho’s genre-melding monster movie, The Host, Empire’s own Simon Crook advised readers thus: “catch it before the inevitable remake.”That was in 2006. And two years later, the inevitable has happened. The only surprises? That it took so long (and no, Cloverfield was not a remake) – and that Gore Verbinski is involved.The Pirates Of The Caribbean director who, of course, has experience of adapting Asian movies for American audiences with The Ring, will only produce the remake for Universal. Instead, newcomer Fredrik Bond – a commercials director - will call the shots.Mark Poirier, who wrote Smart People, will write the new version, but it seems that, for now at least, the story will remain largely the same – giant mutated squid-y monster-type thing lumbers out of a river without warning one day, attacks and kills a bunch of people and takes...
