Karl Urban Wants “Dredd” Sequel and Requests Fans to Sign a Petition


It is said that actual fans are those who intensely love and share what they admire no matter what happens. They never let go what they love, even despite ostensibly definite letdown. This is the reason that a large number of fans are very excited about the initiative of a “Dredd” sequel, in spite of the fact that Lionsgate has not many grounds to pursue this project. After the huge success of “Dredd” starring Karl Urban as Judge Dredd and Lena Headey as villain Ma-Ma, there are still chances of creating a sequel, as a huge fan base is demanding for it.

Karl Urban also want to work on Dredd’s sequel. Now the fans have launched a petition phase to collect votes in favor of the sequel. At the Emerald City Comic-Con, Karl Urban requested a large number of fans they should sign petition and like official Facebook page of the film in order to follow-up to 2012's grimy comic book adaptation. The 41-year-old star Urban, who is these days enjoying the last qualifying position on TV show “Almost Human” and can be substituted by another, could use a career improvement – while we still have to wait Years for the next Star Trek installment.

Undoubtedly, the actual issue here is the financial plan. According to various reports, Dredd’s total budget was almost $50 million, but it earned just $35 million throughout the world. Some reports show that Dredd grabbed anothER $17 million on Blu-ray and DVD, but it is yet not enough to provide a break-point.

When we see such figures, it seems that the sequel is not going to happen. It is important to note that Judge Dredd comes with a well-off history in pop culture, AND the today’s movies yielded mainly constructive reviews. In such scenario, it's easy to observe why fans are signing petition for a follow-up. But if you see through the eyes of a businessman, you will have to admit that the follow-up offers low profit, as $50 million is not enough.

If the producers lower the budget, they will almost certainly lose Urban, which means they lose a wide range of diehard fans. All in all, an actual and expensive Dredd 2 is something we want to watch, mainly with a rumbling Urban as the Judge Dredd.

So, what are your views about it? Do you want sequel of “Dredd”?

Marvel’s “Captain America″ and Warner Bros.’ Superman-Batman film Will Likely Have Face-Off on May 6, 2016


It is very surprising and unique scenario in the historY of Hollywood ever. The two dominant comic supERheroes franchises, Marvel and DC, will compete with each with their upcoming most anticipated moVies. According to various media reports, Disney AND Marvel have announced the third installment of “Captain America″ to be released on the same date as Warner Bros.’ untitled Superman-Batman film, that is May 6, 2016. Marvel had earlier announced the release in May 2016, and the launch date for DC’s Batman vs Superman film was currently drove to the same weekend.

Marvel confirmed the date through its web site after “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” topped at the Box office with record setting earning of more than $200 million throughout the world this weekend, with an projected $96.2 million nationally, for the  biggest American debut ever in this month. Overall, since its release, the sequel “Winter Soldier” has earned more than $300 million all over the world.

It is broadly expected that 1 of the 2 franchises will have to change the date again to avoid this clash that can bring about huge loss or revenue for both of them. It has been reported that Marvel and Disney are sanguine about the release of “Captain America” franchise and they anticipate that Warner Bros. will soon have to change the date. Warner’s “Man of Steel” has earned more than $670 million around the world.

The announcement has been made almost 3 months after WB had publicized that it would launch its untitled Superman-Batman film on May 6, 2016 — changing it back from July 17, 2015 (owing to script rewrites and cast preparation) — which indicates that this Man of Steel sequel would come to terms against another most admired Marvel movie that had not yet declared.

At the time, Warner Bros. had stated that the date had to be pushed to “help fully realize the vision”. The filming of Man of Steel sequel film is in progress in Michigan. Henry Cavill will reprise his role as Clark Kent/Superman and Ben Affleck will play Batman/Bruce Wayne, with Zach Snyder at the helm of the project. Recently, “The Social Network” star Jesse Eisenberg was announced to play Lex Luthor, while other cast members include Jeremy Irons, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane, and Fast & Furious girl Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman.

Matt Gerald Will Play a Villain Role in Upcoming Marvel’s “Ant-Man”


It seems that the key cast of upcoming Marvel’s film “Ant-Man” has been completed with the addition of latest cast member “Matt Gerald” for a villainous role. It has been announced that he will plaY “one of the bad guys”, but it has not been told exactly which bad charactER he would play. A number of media sources reported this news, and the fact that Patrick Wilson (known for “Watchmen”, “The Conjuring” and “Insidious”) was also in talks for a key role in the film. Gerald has preViously appeared in several big Hollywood films including Avatar, Escape Plan, AND Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, and G.I. Joe: Retaliation.

Even the sources have not revealed anything about his villain status, many fans might have imagined as much, as Gerald is considered to be an outstanding actor at playing enemies. Many people remember him as the cruel Ray Speltzer from Season 7 of highly acclaimed serial killer TV show “Dexter”. He played the role of a serial killer who used to put on horns prior to killing his targets.

Many fans also know him as his character White Power Dave from the short film titled as “Marvel One-Shot: All Hail the King”, opposite Ben Kingsley and Sam Rockwell. His other credits are Red Dawn, TV show Castle, The Frozen Ground, Hawaii Five-0, TV series The Shield, Grimm, Intelligence and Last Resort.

Keeping in mind that he is not recapitulating the White Power Dave from “All Hail the King”, there is not nothing more to think about his bad character in Ant-Man, which is has become one of several anticipated films of the Summer 2015, particularly owing to the better cast that includes Michael Douglas as Hank Pym and Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man. Both are projected to wear the Ant-Man costume.

According to the comic books, Douglas’ character Dr. Henry Pym is the man who found out Pym Particles and is considered as the original Ant-Man, while Rudd’s character Scott Lang is a frantic crook who winds up thieving the Ant-Man outfit. This film has been projected to be launched on July 17, 2015, so we can expect to hear more news and details about the film this year, but for now, the cast is in progress satisfactorily, with “The Hobbit” star Evangaline Lilly and “End of Watch” star Michael Pena among the other big names linked to this film.

Famous MGM Star Mickey Rooney Has Passed Away at Age 93


One of the oldest American film and TV actors – Mickey Rooney – has passed away at the age of 93. He died at his home in North Hollywood. He was one of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s leading box office actors when MGM was founded in 1924.

As proficient at humor as drama and an outstanding singer and musician, Mickey was looked upon as the complete performer in the HollYwood. All through his productive careER on stage and screen, he was nominated for 4 Oscars and won 2 special Oscars, the JuVenile Award in 1939 AND one in 1983 for his outstanding performance.

He was also very famous TV series actor and appeared in many TV films. He was nominated for 3 Emmy awards and won an Emmy for TV film “Bill”, in which he played the role of a mentally challenged person. In addition, he was nominated for Tony award for his brilliant performance in musical drama “Sugar Babies”, in which he appeared along with American dancer, singer and actress Ann Miller.

Both in his career and private life, Mickey endured a number of highs and lows. He tied the knot 8 times — initially to his MGM co-star Ava Gardner. Until middle age, he couldn't reasonably get rid of his fame as a youthful actor. Through his “Andy Hardy” movies, he came to personify the qualities of small-town American puerility. He turned out to be the leading star of Hollywood owing to such movies and a series of musicals along with Judy Garland.

The famous actress of 40s – Margaret O’Brien – has revealed that Rooney was currently working on a movie with her, in spite of news that he was not well for some time. The film “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” starring Margaret and Rooney is underway since several months.

“Mickey was the only one at the studio that was ever allowed to call me Maggie. ” said O’Brien in a statement.

He was also working on several other projects including Joseph Sikorski’s “Fragments From Olympus – The Vision of Nikola Tesla”, which is based on biography of Nikola Tesla, and David Rotan’s adventure comedy “Old Soldiers”.

May his soul Rest in Peace.

The New TV Ad with an Extended Look at Iconic Monster ‘Godzilla’ Has Been Launched


We all are eagerly waiting to see cinema’s most iconic monster of all time “Godzilla”. There is a wide range of gigantic movie monsters some of which we are going to see this summer, but all other monsters have nothing to compare with peculiarly big and powerful Godzilla. We already have seen the trailer after which Godzilla has become most anticipated film of the Year. Now with a new TV ad, we get have real thorough look at the famous Toho monster, the evil Godzilla.

It seems that the monstrous creature does not play around, as we get to watch truly eerie-looking, long-lasting destruction here. The visual effects look much better and it seems that evERyone is satisfied with it. We can say that this is the best terrifying film of the year.

By judging the trailers, we can say that Godzilla film may overlook most of its equals when it comes to quality and storyline. The recent TV ads and extended look Video have been absolutely brilliant. However, the video duration is just 2 AND half minutes, so we are wondering how it is an “extended look” rather than a trailer? Anyhow, it does provide an impressive sight of some new scenes. Warner Bros. studio has also shared this video on its official Facebook page.

In previous sneak-peeks, we have not seen “Kick Ass” star Aaron Taylor-Johnson, but recent extended video or TV ad is one of the few peeks to in fact show him as the leading actor of the movie. He is also set to appear in next year's “Avengers: Age of Ultron”. It will be interesting to watch last sneak-peeks just few weeks before film launch. We will see that whether or not they retreat on promoting the more well-known actor Bryan Cranston as the key character of the movie instead, provided that most fans would more probably prone to be familiar with Breaking Bad’s Walter White instead of the actor, who is going to play Quicksilver in 2015.

Albeit there is a good face shot of the Monster in this extended look, but like other TV ads and trailers launched prior to it, this one also teases the gigantic mass and power of the Godzilla without ever clearly presenting it with its entirety and nuclear roar.

Have you watched the new extended look at Godzilla? What do you think about it?

Some New Posters of “X-Men: Days of Future Past” Launched


This is a big prospective Year for Marvel studio. “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” has recently been released in cinemas, while “The Amazing SpidER-Man 2” haVe much material to impress fans with its web of intrigue at the start of May. In August, another space sci-fi superheroes flick “Guardians of the Galaxy” is projected to be released. AND last but not least, we can say most estimated movie of the year “X-Men: Days of Future Past” is coming to wow audiences this May. So, get ready to see a number of anticipated Marvel movies, whose trailers we have already watched.

Marvel has revealed 9 new posters for X-Men: Days of Future Past, which are very cool like this...

Don’t confuse these new posters with the earlier launched ones. These posters give the impression that they are the model posters that assisted whoever was liable to choose the design they deemed advertise the movie perfectly. If a poster is designed to correctly show the quality of the movie and its advertising, then such posters cause an emotional disturbance.

There is no uniformity with the appearance of these one sheets. One poster includes a previous mutant immersed in orange color, while a future mutant covered in blue, just to turn over the color format totally in the subsequent poster in the line. In addition, distinct mutants of past and future have been connected in random combinations, such as past Beast and future Storm unless they are turning out to be partners or lovers. Looking at the recent trailer, as well as the gossips in media circles, such concept doesn't appear to be expected. But, it is good to see that both past character and future character of Magneto has been combined together in one poster.

Still, a few better overwhelming preferences could have been further spotlighted, such as following outstanding Wolverine-oriented one sheet.

The movie title isn't domineering, the art approach merges the colors in a dazzling way, and the decaying depiction of Wolverine imaginatively gives an impression that things are about to get chaotic.

The project is helmed by none other than Bryan Jay Singer, who also directed X-Men: First Class and X-Men 2. It has also been announced that he will also direct “X-Men: Apocalypse” which is set to release in 2016.

Chiwetel Ejiofor is in talks to play Villain in Next Installment of Bond Franchise


Oscar nominated star of Oscar nominated film “12 Years a Slave”, Chiwetel Ejiofor, is the top choice of MGM and Sony to play the next antagonist in Sam Mendes' upcoming installment of Bond franchise. In his outstanding performance as the ex-MI6 fanatic Silva, Javier Bardem turned out to be not only an iconic villain, but one of the best bad characters in entire history of Bond franchise. Choosing next bond villain is quite difficult task and whoever gets the opportunity to plaY it will cERtainly haVe to manage several comparisons - but maybe that's why Ejiofor is deemed as right actor to take this challenge.

Undoubtedly, Ejiofor has been performing outstANDingly in big budget Hollywood movies (Serenity, Salt, 2012, Inside Man, etc.) for a number of years, which has paved the way for him to be now in talks for a prospective key cast member of not only upcoming “Bond 24”, but has also been linked to forthcoming Star Wars: Episode VII. In addition, prior to signing a deal, scheduling is required to be exercised, as Ejiofor has also been confirmed to star in upcoming crime/drama Triple Nine, which is projected to start filming soon to be launched in 2015.

The deal has not been officially made so far; however, he will most likely be confirmed to play the villain role in next few days. Daniel Craig is all set to reprise his role as Bond for the fourth time, along with other key cast members of “SkyFall” including Ralph Fiennes, Ben Whishaw (known for “Perfume” and “Cloud Atlas”) and Naomie Harris (known for Pirates of Caribbean). (Note: If Ejiofor officially joins cast of “Bond 24” in next few days, then most likely he will not sign for Star Wars.)

It seems that Judi Dench will not be reprise her role as “M” this time; however, Ralph Fiennes is going to be the new “M” of British secret agency MI6. Plot details of the film are not known so far.

When it comes to comparing Ejiofor with previous Bond villains, it is quite easy to depict him as a callous villain, yet also aristocratic and classy adversary for Bond. Certainly, a broad assessment of previous films is key factor to the script of upcoming movie, based on what Skyfall’s screenwriter John Logan advised to use usual Bond franchise aspects – not to mention, Daniel showing his longing to retake some typical Bond irony/camp, without being cheesy.

Do you think Chiwetel Ejiofor is good choice to play villain in upcoming Bond film?

Daniel Brühl to Play a Lawyer in “Woman In Gold” Alongside Ryan Reynolds and Helen Mirren


Quentin Tarantino deserves a lot credit and esteem for bringing the talent of amazing foreign actors like Michael Fassbender, Christoph Waltz, and Daniel Brühl to Hollywood’s spotlight. After appearing in highly admired Oscar nominated film Inglourious Basterds, the Spain born and German national Daniel Brühl has been showing his acting talent in several American films from the horror-thriller “Intruders”, to comedY-romance “2 Days In New York”, and to real life stories “Rush” and “The Fifth Estate”. He is now being considered to play an important lead role in another real life inspirational drama “Woman in Gold”, alongside “The Green LantERn” star Ryan Reynolds and “Red” star Helen Mirren.

A number of media sources haVe reported that negotiation between Brühl AND The Weinstein Company are underway, and Bruhl will most likely play an attorney in this real life drama, which will be helmed by Simon Curtis and will be based on script of Alexi Campbell. Reynolds will also play an attorney, while Mirren will play Maria Altmann, a Jewish expatriate from Nazi-occupied Austria, well known for her eventually victorious lawful movement to get back 5 family-owned paintings, which were stolen by the Nazis. While her flee from the prisons of Adolf Hitler may go towards a thrilling film on its own, this holocaust subsister's factual assertion to reputation is how she regained her family's collection. This is the main focus of the film.

Altmann was awarded with U.S. citizenship in 1945. She filed suit in federal court in 2000 to get back her family’s assets and had an approving ruling that Austria was not resistant from a suit. Reynolds will play the role of Altmann’s lawyer, who pursued her case in spite of having no idea in art. For his part, Brühl will bring his compelling sagacity of intimidation to the character of their rival, a legal representative fighting for the Austrian administration's claim to the paintings.

This is appeared to be a challenging and fascinating production. Helen has always been very compelling actor for her lead roles, while Reyan looks to do great as a supporting actor, rather than a leading actor. And Brühl is being much expected to bring heat to his character, as the rivalry between Reyan and Brühl is also main focus of the film.

Woman In Gold has been projected to start filming this May. We are anticipating hearing further news about other casting announcements from the studio.

‘The Expendables III’ Trailer Launched: Get Ready to See Some Real Action


That’s what we call a sudden surprise. The trailer of “The Expendables III” has been launched, and hats off to the talented minds like Director Patrick Hughes and Writer Sylvester Stallone for presenting things at a whole new level of visual direction and significantly broadening the capacity of the Expendables world. Forget about the gloomY action scenes and begrimed stores of the initial 2 installments of the franchise. Now, the new trailER provides the glimpse of open state, trains, helicopters, ballrooms, better action scenes and eVen new action heroes including Harrison Ford, Wesley Snipes, AND Mel Gibson. As opposed to an obvious action film, it appears like a real adventure. How appealing!

The trailer looks convincing with the excitement in watching the roll call of assembled stars and film message “Hang on, For the Last Ride”, as the Blade star Wesley Snipes says in the trailer, it's surely "Lots to digest". Hilariously, they rely rigorously on last-name credit of the action stars, which seems right with a Statham, a bit less reasonable with a “Crews”, and utterly claptrap with last name of other stars like "Powell" and “Rousey”, who are not yet enough well-known.

That would be Glen Powell, who appeared in “The Dark Knight Rises” for a small role.
Arnold Schwarzenegger looks great macho man in the trailer as always. It seems that he is not going to retire from his action films despite his much old age. It's expected that master mind behind this franchise – Sylvester Stallone – will also realize this aspect, because his age will be around 70 when 3rd installment releases in cinemas. It clearly seems the last installment of the franchise, as there is clear text in trailer “One Last Ride”. This franchise until now is like the All-Star Game of action films, where Sylvester seems mainly Michael Jordan and the bad-ass action hero like Statham are the LeBrons.

Previous two films turned out to be successful at the box office. In the 2nd film, we got to watch Bruce Willis, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Chuck Norris in action. It seems that they will not be appearing in the upcoming film, as their place has been filled by other senior actors like Mel Gibson and Harrison Ford. The Expendables III has been projected to launch on August 15th this year.

It’s Confirmed: Donnie Yen and Michelle Yeoh to Star in 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2'


Yes, it has been confirmed and it’s really happening. The Weinstein Company has decided to make a sequel of Ang Lee’s beautiful fantasY epic “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”. Yuen Wo Ping has been announced to direct the film as well as helm the action choreography. Also coming back is action star Michelle Yeoh, who is going to reprise her character as Yu Shu Lien, while IP Man star Donnie Yen has been announced to play the character of Silent Wolf. The sequel is titled as “Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon: The Green Destiny”. But, it has not been confirmed so far whether or not Ziyi Zhang will reprise her role as Jen Yu.

Weinsteon Company’s co-chairpERson Harvey Weinstein has stated that he much appreciated Ang Lee’s ‘Crouching Tiger’ AND considered it as a one of the best directed films ever. He further said that they are in incredible hands with Yuen Wo Ping at helm of the sequel. Yuen has collaborated with Weinsteon before over several other film projects including Donnie Yen’s "Iron Monkey” and Quentin Tarantino’s “Kill Bill”. Harvey called Yuen a matchless director as well as choreographer and said that he is very excited to join hands with him once more.

You perhaps think that this is the first time we are hearing about the production of Crouching Tiger 2, but this is not the case. We initially heard the news of Crouching Tiger 2 is in progress a couple of months back, but it has been underway for several years. Until now, the delay was an official conflict over the source material. As that issue has been settled now, the sequel has been projected to start filming this month.

The original film was based on Wang Du Lu’s Pentalogy, and it was blockbuster with record $213 million at the worldwide box office and more than $128 million in America. When it was released in 2000, it quickly turned out to be top earning foreign language movie in US history. It was nominated for 7 Academy Awards under different categories. It won 4 Academy Awards including the award for Best Foreign Language film.

At first, Ronny Yu was considered to helm the project, but later he was turned down and task was assigned to well-known action choreographer Yuen. So far, it seems that Ang Lee will not be contributing in any way in this project. But, you don’t need to be skeptical or worried, as the sequel still got the potential.

Jack Stanley Has Been Announced to Pen Down the Script of Chronicle’s Sequel


Director Josh Trank's MysterY Sci-Fi film “Chronicle” looked like a unique found footage movie, a short budgeted bombshell that amazingly collected a huge $126 million throughout the world. A lot of fans think that the ending is quite dreary, but it comes with a sliver of hope that enables them to connect the dots. HowevER, a studio just not pursuing a prospective lucrative franchise is just awful choice; so, Chronicle 2 is in progress, and a new writer is trying to come up with best content.

According to Various media reports, Jack Stanley (known for “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy” AND “Carrie's War”) has been announced to write a perfect script for Chronicle 2. The first movie was scripted by candid penman Max Landis (known for writing short stories like “Ghost Closet '07”, “Tumbler”, “Dupe”, and “The Death And Return Of Superman”). But while he was hanged on to Chronicle 2, it appeared obvious that people in control took issue with his point of view. When he was allowed to go, he disclosed it on media (telling that Fox legal had no uncertainties and that it was finally quite special as compared to what the studio was following up on).

The plot of the sequel, which was written by Landis, centers on a girl's quest to be world's first super-powered criminal, and the new name was Martyr. It seemed like appealing and also possibly disturbing subject if we look at the aggressive insinuations of the original movie. Dane DeHaan's role was initially friendly but it became villainous in the end. However, he was not inevitably making cognizant judgments to cause huge chaos.

According to rumors, the studio intends to straight pursue the character of Alex Russell's (known for “Carrie” and “The Host”) at the end as he makes a journey worldwide, assisting others and controlling his skills. Now it is an opportunity to thematically create a script that sensibly connects the ending of first film to the beginning of sequel and to let some hope to go over what is a huge tragedy. It is also possible that perhaps Stanley's take on the sequel in fact resumes the original film’s superpowers idea but with all new characters. Most probably, the film story will in fact demonstrate strange alien thing that gave superpowers to characters.

What are your views about the sequel? What do you want to see in it?

Toby Kebbell Has Been Announced to Play ‘Doctor Doom’ in ‘Fantastic Four’ Reboot


A couple of months back, it was announced that “House of Cards” star Kate Mara, “Project X” star Miles Teller, “Jumper” star Jamie Bell, and “Chronicles” star Michael B. Jordan had been confirmed to play lead Marvel’s Superhero characters Sue Storm/The Invisible Woman, Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Ben Grimm/The Thing, and Johnny Storm/The Human Torch, respectively, in upcoming ‘Fantastic Four’ Reboot. Fox studio was looking for a perfect actor to play villain in reboot.

Now, the final major part of the new Marvel’s superhero flick’s mystery has been laid down. One of the Marvel’s greatest villains, Victor von Doom, who is usually called by his somewhat more villainous name Doctor Doom, will be played by Young actor Toby Kebbell, who is known for various mega-budget films like “Wrath of the Titans”, “Prince of Persia”, and “RocknRolla”.

According to various media sources, the deal has been made without providing further details regarding how Doom will wind up on screen in upcoming reboot. Although there is still quite a lot criticism over the choice of cast of the reboot, but we all hope that this vERsion cannot be poorer as compared to the Julian McMahon’s Version in 2005 movie, right?

The film will be directed by Josh Trank, who started his career in Hollywood with highly admired debut film “Chronicles”. It will be based on the Marvel comic “The Ultimate Fantastic Four” AND Jeremy Slater’s script, which will be rewritten by Simon Kinberg, who is known for “X-Men: Days of Future Past” and “Sherlock Holmes”. All the lead characters are much younger as compared to the all traditional versions of Marvel’s comics and films. In addition, some specific origin details are expected to be changed from the imaginative story written by Stan Lee more than forty years ago.

In “The Ultimate Fantastic Four” version, Doom in fact has the normal name “Victor van Damme” (most of people spell out it as “von Doom”, which seems wrong). According to the story of this version, he is an aristocrat who is (without any doubt) connected by a blood relationship to Vlad “the Impaler” Tepes. He has started various scientific projects, including the same scientific program as Reed Richards, and is influential in the mishap due to which all characters start to develop unique superpowers in them.

How much this reboot will differ from the Ultimate version? We have no idea so far. Are you satisfied with Fox’s choice of Toby Kebbell?

“The Walking Dead” Continues to Break Viewership Records


AMC’s “The Walking Dead” continues its spree of back-to-back successes in AMC’s television history. It recently grabbed a record finale viewership as it finished its 4th season Sunday night.

According to the projections, the regular-timeslot broadcast of “The Walking Dead” increased to almost 16 million total viewers — which is said to be a 17% week-to-week increase (from 14 million) and 26% better as compared to its last YEar’s season finale, which grabbed nearly 12.42 million total viewers.

The season 4 finale also most talked show on twitter, and was the top spot non-sports show of the night on Twitter throughout all broadcast platforms, with more than one million tweets from above 0.35 million exclusive authors, making overall 63 million Twitter TV impressions. Twitter activity was highest at around 9:22 pm EST with more than 25 thousands tweets, showing 85% of all TV-related Twitter activity at that time.

“The Walking Dead” has always witnessed its stats increase significantly with every half season. It increased to 4 in winter 2012 from a 3.4 in fall 2011. From 5.3 rating in fall 2012, it increased to 5.8 in initial 2013 episodes. Previous fall, rating increased to a 6.6, while 8 episodes this year got a 6.9.
