While out promoting his new film, “The Woman in Black,” actor Daniel Radcliffe said he was 'miffed' to learn that “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows—Part 2” failed to receive a Best Picture nomination.

“I don’t think the Oscars like commercial films or kids’ films, unless they’re directed by Martin Scorsese," he told the Radio Times. "I was watching Hugo the other day and going, ‘Why is this nominated and we’re not?’ I was slightly miffed."

"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows--Part 2," which has grossed $1.3 billion worldwide, was nominated for Best Achievement in Make-Up, Art Direction and Visual Effects at this year's Oscars, scheduled for Feb. 26.

“There’s a certain amount of snobbery,” Radcliffe added. “It’s kind of disheartening. I never thought I’d care. But it would’ve been nice to have some recognition, just for the hours put in.”

Marking the end of Hollywood's most-succesful franchise ever, "The Deathly Hallows--Part 2" had a 96% fresh rating on Rottentomatoes, over fifty points higher than "Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close," which had a paltry 45% rating yet still earned a Best Picture nomination.

But Radcliffe, now 22, was quick to add: "How much of a pat on the back do we really need? We get paid stupid amounts of money."

"Jason Bourne was just the tip of the iceberg."

You can say that again.

Universal has released the first trailer for the studio's hotly-anticipated Bourne reboot, "The Bourne Legacy," starring Jeremy Renner. Tony Gilroy ("Michael Clayton") is at the helm, subbing for "Bourne" director Paul Greengrass while Renner replaces Matt Damon in the lead role.

Based on the Robert Ludlum espionage novels, Renner will play a new CIA operative, not Jason Bourne, in U's "Legacy," while several actors from the original Bourne pics, including Albert Finney, Joan Allen and David Strathairn reprise their roles.

In addition to Renner, "Bourne Legacy" also stars Edward Norton and Rachel Weisz.

Gilroy, who has written all four Bourne installments, replaced Greengrass at the helm last year after the "Ultimatum" director left the project over creative differences with Universal. Damon, having worked with Greengrass on the past two Bourne pics as well as "Green Zone," followed suit, before slamming Gilroy publicly and calling the "Bourne Legacy" script "unreadable." Damon later retracted his statement.

The previous three Bourne films have cumed over $1 billion at the global B.O. and U hasn't had a hit franchise since, well, the Bourne movies. Needless to say, Universal has a lot riding on "The Bourne Legacy."

Renner previously starred in "Mission: Impossible--Ghost Protocol," which has grossed over $600 million worldwide, and can be seen earlier this summer in Par's "The Avengers."

A day after Sony and Columbia Pictures unveiled a new trailer and additional footage from “The Amazing Spider-Man” to fans in a 13 city coordinated event, which also included satellite interviews with the cast and filmmakers, the studio released the second official Spidey teaser online.

Starring Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone, “The Amazing Spider-Man” doesn’t stray too far from Sam Raimi’s trilogy, in terms of look and feel, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. And New York seems to play a hefty role in the pic a la "Ghostbusters" with landmarks and taxi cabs interwoven into many of the scenes.

Directed by Marc Webb and also starring Rhys Ifans as the pic’s nemesis, Dr. Connors (a.k.a The Lizard), “Spider-Man” tells the story of Peter Parker and his quest to find out why his parents disappeared when he was young.

Denis Leary, Martin Sheen and Sally Field co-star.

“The Amazing Spider-Man” opens July 3, 2012.

Ferris Bueller, meet Super Bowl Sunday.

Twenty-five years after the release of John Hughes' classic pic "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," Honda has revived America's deacon ditcher (a.k.a. Buellerrrrrr) in a new ad scheduled to air on Sunday.

While it's sorta embarrassing to see a classic like "Ferris Bueller's" resusitated for TV, let alone a Honda commercial, the new Super Bowl spot should entertain fans of the pic, even if cast members 'Cameron' and 'Mr. Rooney' are noticeably absent.

Shot entirely in Los Angeles, Matthew Broderick plays hooky from his agent in "Matthew's Day Off," with the 49 year-old actor joy-riding in the new Honda CR-V (I know, I prefer the Ferarri, too) and quoting several of the pic's best lines.

Chk. Chk-chk it out:

Parker Posey returns to the Sundance Film Festival with a lot on her plate, which is fine by her.

"I kinda grew up here," Posey says of the fest. "Every time I come back I get reinvigorated and inspired all over again."

The 43 year-old actress, who was once deemed "Queen of the Indies" when she broke onto the scene in the 90s with independent films like "Party Girl," "Clockwatchers," and "The House of Yes," is back in Park City with the new supermarket drama "Price Check" and will also serve as host the Sundance Awards on Saturday.

"It's a real opportunity to get back to my roots," Posey says about pulling double-duty.

"Price Check," written and directed by Michael Walker, tells the story of an assertive businesswoman (Posey) who tries to turn around a struggling supermarket chain.  

Eric Mabius co-stars in the film.

"She cares a great deal about a job that most people would think is really mundane and boring," Posey says of her character. "And Mike (Walker) is just so smart."

Despite her glowing praise of the film though, Posey is admittedly exasperated by the state of the film world.

"Years ago we would've had a lot more money to make this movie," the actress says with a look of despair. "Now you have studios going 'We don't make dramas anymore.' They make broad comedies and the movies that can be turned into videogames."

Still, Posey compares the current indie market to a sleeping giant.

"I think we're at the beginning of the power of independent cinema," she says. "Movies can start to grow and get an audience on Demand on Netflix, it'll be cool again. It'll stop being such a commodity."
