Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street Featuring Leonardo DiCaprio
Actor Leonardo DiCaprio will play stockbroker Jordan Belfort in director Martin Scorsese‘s new film The Wolf of Wall Street. The movie trailer was released on June 16, 2013.

Directors Spielberg and Lucas Predict ‘Massive Implosion’ in Film Industry
Yesterday on June 13, 2013, The Verge’s Brian Bishop published a story with the provocative headline “Steven Spielberg and George Lucas predict ‘massive implosion’ in film industry”. The article covers a panel discussion held at the University of Southern California by directors George Lucas and Steven Speilberg and Microsoft’s President of Interactive Entertainment Don Mattrick. Quickly, their predictions include $50-100 trips to high-end movie theaters, diversification of content on television, and an indie emphasis on publishing content directly to the internet first. Similar concepts were echoed in our interview with director Amanda Bluglass. We recommend reading The Verge article.
