Keanu Avenges Dog's Death and Wows Fantastic Fest

If anyone needs a career resuscitation, it's Keanu Reeves. Although he did praise-worthy work with his underseen-and-appreciated 2013 directorial debut Man of Tai Chi, the gargantuan calamity that was 47 Ronin proved to be a large nail-in-the-coffin for the star. Enter his forthcoming hitman action-thriller John Wick, seemingly out of nowhere. After premiering at Fantastic Fest over the weekend, twitter lit up with raves about the film, which is apparently directed by his Point Break stunt double! The trailer makes it out to be a throwback to the bullet-ridden action flicks of the '90s, which is fine by me; any film that has Keanu uttering the line, "That dog was a final gift from my dying wife" must be kinda fun, right? Read more tweets here, and watch the trailer below:

Trailer: Frankenweenie

In 1984, Tim Burton made a live-action short film called Frankenweenie for Disney but was fired because they thought it was too creepy and weird. Fast forward 27 years and many box office hits later - including that billion dollar money-machine Alice in Wonderland - Burton's returned to the short again for Disney, but has done a stop-motion animated feature length remake. The first trailer's hit the web, and it looks pretty darn cute in a macabre, Burton-esque way. Apparently it'll be the first stop-motion movie to be shown in IMAX 3D.
