PULSE

Strangely enough, just the other day I was wondering if Kristen Bell was in any 2006 movies. Now I know the answer. "Pulse", the second horror movie with a hottie I have heard about in as many days. Here is the plot synopsis (taken from blackfilms)

Synopsis: Based on the Japanese horror movie "Kairo," "Pulse" centers on a group of college students who discover that a computer hacker friend of theirs unwittingly pirated a strange wireless signal that opened a doorway for a terrifying evil to cross over into the world. As it spreads, everyone in its path is consumed, and the students must race to find a way to stop it.

Is it just me or do the Japanese only make horror movies about scary objects. Dont Japenese filmmakers know what a scary monster is? Ghost and Demons are freaky but I want my ZOMBIES. Blackfilms also has the trailer up, so check that out

When A Stranger Calls

A remake of the 70s horror film "When A Stranger Calls" has been made. I never saw the original but it looks to me like this is based on the urban legend about the babysitter who gets a call that the police trace to..... the HOUSE SHE IS IN!!! Sorry if I spoiled the story there, but the trailer also spoils it. The villain in the trailer is also comedic because he uses jazz hands several times in the trailer. The films star Camilla Belle appears to have starred in a bunch of movies I have never heard of (her imdb page) (notice that she was once on "Walker Texas Ranger"

Link to Trailer

Special note: Here is snopes.coms version of the legend mentioned above, and it says that "when a stranger calls" is based on this legend. Urban Legends Ahoy

ONLINE FILM FESTIVALS

Not much movie news to report today, so I thought I would link to one of my favorite sites about film, FilmFights! This film festival has a theme for everyone of its contest such as "make a musical with three songs that is under ten minutes long" Some of the contest are really specific, some are incredibly general. As the main page states "you have got something to prove" many of the filmmakers on the site battle in every single one of the contest for the win. I check back quite often because sometimes they get some great stuff. Anyway, if your bored, check it out! FilmFights!

Entertainment Weeklys Year end poll

The poll on entertainmentweekly.com concerning audiences oppinion on books, music, and most importantly, films. Concedering that this is an audience based poll, not a critics poll the films in the running were not highbrow(The Wedding Crashers got 5th) but they sure were entertaining. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire SMASHED the competition in both the new book and new movie categorys, with Batman Begins coming in second in the movie category. The only thing that was especially surprising is that Fiona Apples "Extraodinary Machines" won best new cd. I have only heard the title track from that cd and I must say it was alright, but considering that this is an audienc poll, it is really rather shocking to see this beat out a more popular album like "Late Registration" by Kanye West.

WATCHMEN

IGN FilmForce has an article about the adaptation of the comic book "Watchmen" to film. Apparently considered dead in the water all summer after it was shelved from production just weeks before filming began, Warner Brothers Pictures has now picked up the script. IGN's explanantion is that "V For Vendetta" has been getting great reviews and Warner Brothers wants to have "Watchmen" on hand in case "V for Vendetta" is a smash hit. "Vendetta" and "Watchmen" are two comics books by Allen Moore and "Watchmen" is another film in the gritty style that Warners has been using on its comic book adaptations. Personally, I have not read this comic book yet so I am not super pumped for it. Check out FilmForces original article

GHOST RIDER!

A official site for "Ghost Rider" is up and running and it has a ten second clip from the film. All I can say is WOW! This was cheesier than I expected, and yet still cool. The head looks really CGI-ed on and I know that while many films have bad special effects in the trailer, if the whole film looks like that, its going to be really distracting. Take a peek

NightWatch

Hey I just heard from a friend who had seen a german bootleg (in german bootleg is "rauptkopy") of Nightwatch. He said it was kicking rad and one of the best german films he had ever seen. While Fox Searchlight who has picked up the film for North American distrubution has no definite plans to release this film soon, the site is still amazing! The visuals are insane in the trailer and I can't wait to see it. Here is the official site
Official Site
Oh and here is the description of the movie from the official site:
For as long as humanity has existed, there have been "Others" among us; Witches, Vampires and Shape-Shifters who are soldiers in the eternal war between Light and Dark.

Light Others protect mankind from Dark Others, who plague and torture humans.

Over 1000-years ago a truce was struck between Gesser, Lord of the Light, and Zavulon, General of Darkness. They agreed that no one could be forced to good or evil, people must choose freely for themselves. To uphold this truce, each side established underground forces; the soldiers of the Light would be called Night Watch, making sure Dark Others obeyed the truce. And the soldiers of Darkness would be called Day Watch, to do the same.

Ancient prophecy foretells that one day the Great One will arrive who can end the threat of an apocalyptic battle between Light and Dark Others. That day has come, and the Great One, once he or she is identified, must choose whether to destroy the light within or battle the surrounding darkness. This choice will reveal mankind's destiny.

1992:
Anton Gordesky, a broken-hearted man, desperate to win back his fiancée, seeks out the black magic services of a witch. This Dark Other, about to use her magic for evil, is arrested by the Night Watch moments before for completing her spell. The cataclysmic event awakens Anton to discover that he is an Other. Now he must choose whether to become a protector of light or warrior of darkness.

Today:
Somewhere on the streets of Moscow the "Great One" wanders, oblivious to his or her powers. Anton, along with his Night Watch team, race to find and protect the Great One from Zavulon and his Day Watch vampires who seek to plunge the world into darkness. Whoever reaches the Great One first will hold the balance of power in their hands and control the fate of humanity.

NIGHT WATCH (NOCHNOI DOZOR) is the first installment of a trilogy based on the best-selling Russian sci-fi novels of Sergei Lukyanenko (which also includes Day Watch and Dusk Watch). This visionary horror fantasy film features a dazzling mix of mind-blowing effects, adrenaline-fuelled action and suspenseful terror.

This must be an awesome film. The description alone got my blood pumping. Comeon Fox Searchlight, lets get this picture to the screen

Serenity

The DVD version of one of my favorite movies of the year "Serenity" is coming out tomorrow. I know this was not a big hit in theatres but here is your chance to see an amazing film that deserved to suceed. The ending action sequence is amazing and the whole film has effects that a year or two ago would have been called mindblowing (i dont think it is possible for any movie, no matter how good its cgi to have effects that are good enough to be called mindblowing anymore) The characters really drive the plot and the universe that they exist in is kind of like the Star Wars Universe (i.e.- You want to be part of it!) I think what really made the film great though is just like Harry Potter 4, the film, it has a good sprinkling of humor mixed in with the rest of it that keeps it fun.

KING KONG

December 13th is a major day in moviemaking and general culture.
The first reason for this is today is American Edit Resistance day. American Edit was a mashup album of Green Days "American Idiot" that got banned a meer 10 days after its release. BoingBoing has a much better article on it than I could write, so I will just link to that. At the bottom of the article is the link to the download site. The downloads stop at midnite, so hurry up!
BoingBoing Article

The second reason is tomorrow is the KING KONG REALEASE. Of course some people will see it tonite at the midnite premiere, but for most of us it is tomorrow that is the premiere. The reviews I have read have all been postive and the IMDB page was glowing with excellent remarks. Peter Jackson appears to have worked another miracle and for that I have to give him mad props! If you havent seen the trailer yet go here
If you desire a King Kong review fix, check out The IMDB PAGE/
Other than that, less than 24 hours to go before Kong is UNLEASHED! HAPPY WAITING!!

SNAKES ON A PLANE

Okay this article made my day. It needs no explanation.
SNAKES ON A PLANE ALREADY A HIT?

ARE MOVIES DEAD?

I just read a slightly out of date article from the LATIMES. The writer of the article insists that movies (at least in theatres) are dead. Before I disagree, you gotta read the article first.
The ARTICLE
Heres my two cents on the issues: Yes, this year has not been profitable for Hollywood. Yes, there is also a bumper crop of movies eligible for Razzberrys. I think that the correllation between the two is strong, and thus, Hollywood should not be shouting doomsday yet. Will theatres always be as popular as they were entering the 21st century? HECK NO! As more and more technologys are introduced that allow you to consume media wherever you want, whenever you want theatre use will continue to decline. The demand for movies and entertainment is only going to increase. But increasingly people are going to demand specialized content. The age of america having a sweetheart actor is gone. The future is content about what I specifically want, not necessarily a wide audience. So I guess my oppinion is the same as the writer of the article but in a diffrent way. I dont think that Hollywood is dead by a long shot but Hollywood is going to have to adapt.

BIKING MOVIES

After a friend rolled her car last night(she and everyone else involved are okay!!!) I remembered several great movies filled with bike crashes!
This first one features tons of bad BMX crashes. Every time you think they can't get any worse, they DO! Its a pretty kicking rad film.
BMX CRASHES

The next movie doesnt have any crashes but features a race between bike messengers through NYC. They cut through cars, weave through pedestrians, hold on to cars to get speed boosts. Once you see this movie you will think that being a bike messenger is cool. Trust me!
ITS TIME TO DUEL!!!

THE WARRIORS

The recent release of the videogame "The Warriors" has turned my attention to the original movie which it is based upon. I must say the movie it is based upon looks mighty sweet. According to IMDB here is the plot....
"New York City. Home to over 7,000,000 people. They work and play by day. But when night comes, the street gangs take over the five boroughs, known simply as "The Armies of the Night"- One hundred thousand sworn rivals such as: The Furies, The Boppers, The Rogues, The High-Hats, The Lizzies, The Turnbull A.C.'s, and The Gramercy Riffs, just to name a few. But only one gang is perhaps the most toughest: The Warriors. Based from the outskirts of Coney Island and led by Swan (Michael Beck), they head up towards Pelham Bay Park in the Bronx for a special meeting/truce by Cyrus, the "Lord Byron of the City". It is then that a gang member shoots and kills Cyrus and falsely accuse The Warriors for it. Now the boys from Coney are on the run. Between them and safety stands over 20,000 NYPD cops and the enemies. With only one chance at escape and only one night to do it, The Warriors will do anything possible, if necessary, to get back home. Even if it means picking up a broad along the way. Tonight they are all out for THE WARRIORS"
Now if that doesnt sound like a sweet movie, I do not know what will. I have not seen this film yet but there is also news of a remake thats being done by MTV films for release in 2006. The scipt is set in LA instead of NYC and many of the major characters from the original film will not be featured in it. Anyway for more information on this movie check out these two sites

Bourne Ultimatum Script Summary

The same LatinoReview that was linked to before with the sneak peak at the script of Pirates of the Caribean 3, now has a sneek peak at the Bourne Ultimatum script. They dont give the script a great review, but also remind folks that this script is at least 20 drafts away from the final version. Warning though, just like the POTC3 script review, the whole review is full of spoilers. A non spoiler version of the story could be summarized as Bourne is on the run again, and this time every question left unanswered will be answered in this final Bourne movie.

HARRY POTTER DIES?

Dark Horizons has an article about how J.K Rowling has recently done an interview saying that Harry Potter 7 is the absolute final book. There is no more possibility of it ever being continued pass book 7. She also said people will have to wait and see if Harry lives to reach adulthood. J.K ROWLING ROCKS THE BOAT PEOPLE! I dont really want to even think about how she could kill off another major character. First off, I dont even think that unless Voldemort wins, Harry could die in the storyline. If their lives are entertwined so that one has to kill the other, then either Voldemort wins, Harry dies or Harry wins, Voldemort dies. It would be a crushing finish to a great seriesif Harry dies, so if Harry does die, it better be pretty well justified by the story. Personally I just think that J.K. is playing a card to distract and worry people. In all likelihood, Harry will not die. But I could be eating those words in a couple years when the books come out, so we will see!

Funniest Boondocks Ever

Boondocks is in my local paper (Minneapolis Star Tribune) and todays Boondocks was so great that I just had to share. The best part about this is I am sure this situation is going to happen for many people. I dont want to say anymore and spoil it
Read Todays Boondocks

Fantastic Four 2

The same storyline from the first Fantastic Four is being continued in Fantastic Four 2 (except without Dr. Doom) The movie itself was HORRIBLY recieved as a boring effect driven drivel, but it got 350 million box office and I am assuming that its dvd release is going to be profitable. So from the studios perspective, why change a winner? I can give you a reason. I love Fantastic Four the comic book and after reading all the negative reviews I decided not to go because I did not fell like being dissapointed strongly by the film. The only reason I would go to the second was if the coolest villain Dr. Doom was still in it. Dr. Doom has two things that make him the coolest villain. One, the name is the awesome, two, the costume is awesome. He is the reason why I was especially excited about Fantastic Four 1 and without him, its just an extra empty shell. Anyway on the plus side, Syriana and The Chronicles of Narnia--- This Friday

X- MEN 3

USATODAY has a few pictures from X-MEN 3 on their site today. The only photo of any real note is the first picture which is of "The Beast" He does not look like anything fromt he comic, he looks alot older and more grizzled than he does in the comics. Maybe its just me, but from this one picture I get a kind of Animatronics/Fantasy film feel from it. Like Jim Henderson somehow got a hold of the rights to produce it.
See The Pics Here!
EDIT- A teaser trailer has also been realeased. This just "dropped" today so check it out!

The Italian Job

The Brazilian Job?
I found out today that they are making a sequel to one of the best movies about stealing stuff, "The Italian Job". The sequels working title is "The Brazilian Job". Suitably enough, the film is set in Rio de Janeiro and stars all of the same people from the original. According to IMDB, Mos Def is in this one. I do not remember him being in the first one, but I am excited to see him in the second film. He was funny in HHGTG and he is one of my favorite rappers, so I am looking forward to seeing this even more.
link IMDB LINK
EDIT-It appears that Mos Def was in fact in "The Italian Job" He played the character of Left Ear, the guy who lost his hearing in an accident involving a toilet and an m-80. Thanks to Matt for the correction

STAR WARS REVELATIONS

Star Wars Revelations
I LOVED IT! This movie is the height of nerdyness and yet it is sheer genius. The creators need to be hailed for the sheer audacity of this film. The CGI in the movie was better than many professional productions, and the score is once again professional level. There is no Star Wars fan film that compares to this movie, and the only other fan film that even comes close is the famous "5 Year Mission" series. But those are about Star Trek so they cant even come close to the awesomeness that was "Revelations." My only complaint is that the acting in "Revelations" was sub par. They could have stood to get some better actors, but the actors they have are adequate. (On a side note, I found the acting and plot of "5 Year Mission" to be better, but still not as much fun) I would definitely recommend braving the long download. You will not be disappointed.

MORE PIRATES OF CARRIBEAN STUFF

Ahoy!
DAVY JONES SHIP
The ship that Davy Jones will be using in Pirates of the Caribbean 2 has some high quality pictures of it posted on Dark Horizons. I got to say, this is way better than that leaked trailer. I seriously spent several minutes looking at the fine craftsmanship on that ship. The ship goes to the level of detail that the Lord of the Rings design crew went to. Take a look for yourself, it really is amazing.

XMEN 3

Xmen3
It was announced today what the plot of X-Men 3 is going to be. This movie is being eagerly awaited by the whole comic book community, because the first two were just that awesome. The plot is definitely going to center around mutants who cannot blend in with the rest of humanity (such as Beast, Iceman, and Nightcrawler) and the problems that causes them. The other two films have had Beast in them, but he never had a very big role. Personally I would love to see Beast just beat down on some guy completely because, well, he can. But I also know that will not be happening because that is exactly the thing the Beast will not be doing for two reasons. The first being that he is insanely smart and thus would not do so. Two, in the comic books, he is extremely conscientious of the fact that he is expected to do things like this and behave like Wolverine when fighting (or at least that is how I have always thought it was) and thus he does not do so, because he is not Wolverine.

NARNIA

Narnia
One of the most anticipated movies of the year, Narnia, is now only ten days away from being released so I thought now might be a good time to do some information on it. A nine minute SUPERTRAILER has been released for those recently and I must say that I think this movie is going to smash records. If it’s a well done, well acted movie then it will make tons of money over the holidays. I know I will be going to see it. Everyone knows this story, and a well done movie that’s appropriate for the whole family is not something that happens very often.
Link to supertrailer SUPERTRAILER

If you are as pumped as I am for this movie, have a peek at the Minotaurs costume, courtesy of IGN FILMFORCE. They have close up pictures of the costume that the Minotaur is wearing as well as his weaponry. The “Otmin two headed” axe looks so large and heavy that you would have to be a Minotaur to carry it into battle. But hey, it’s a Minotaur so I am sure it twirls it around like a toothpick. Seeing the Minotaur beat down on stuff will be almost as cool as when Eowyn and the Nazgul had the fight with the mace in LOTR ROTK
THE MINOTAUR
ALSO--- A letter by C.S. Lewis(the author of the Narnia books for those of you who did not know) has recently surface in which he says that a live action version would be “blasphemous” But it is also clear that he is talking about a live action version where the creatures would all be played by people in costumes. The Narnia movie isn’t going to have the creatures played by people in costumes. Thus I think it falls under the category “not blasphemous” Oh well, blasphemous or not, I am still planning on attending this movie.

RIP Mr. Miyagi

Pat Morita who played Mr. Miyagi in "The Karate Kid 1-3" died last night at age 73. He died of natural causes according to his wife. He was in lots of other films and shows but I will always remember him for his oscar nominated role of Mr. Miyagi. he made the Karate Kid films great. The other actors were lame but Miyagi was awesome. He could do all sorts of amazing stuff like stop arrows and stuff. He was the best! We will remember you Pat Morita. Rest in Peace!

Pirates of the Caribean 2 Trailer

Okay I got a pirate tape of the POTC2 trailer. The video quality is somewhat low and personally I felt this made the trailer alot worse. It made it hard to see what was going on. But, hey what can you expect from a leaked copy. The movie seems to be about a debt Captain Jack owes to Davy Jones.(of Davy Jones Locker fame) Anyway take a look and have a happy thanksgiving!

Rent gets blasted

In todays Star Tribune, The new movie "Rent" gets blasted by my new favorite reviewer Colin Covert. He just absolutely lays the verbal smackdown on this movie. Some highlights
The characters are mostly colorful lowlifes with "lovable" eccentricities such as not paying their bills, robbing ATM machines and drumming on a 10-gallon pickle bucket so energetically it drives a dog to suicide.

A lot has been made of the show's multicultural makeup, but like a corporation that mocks diversity by hiring conformists of all colors, "Rent" offers the blandest racial smorgasbord imaginable.

Seriously read the whole review its awesome. Colin Covert, I will be reading what you have to say in the future. More reviews like this and I will be demanding that you replace Jeff Strickler as Minneapolis head reviewer
Link: Star Tribune review

For more review goodness, the new movie "Yours, Mine and Ours" has garnered one of the lowest ratings overall that I have seen on Rotten Tomatoes. It has 7%!!! You read that correctly. At the time I am writing this, 7 people out of 100 would walk out of the theatre and have enjoyed it.

m.night shylaman's "Lady in the Water"

New trailer posted today for the movie "Lady in the Water" Its another M.Night Shylaman movie and thus we all know the end will have a huge twist. Or maybe the big twist will be that it doesnt have a twist. That certainly would be a twist. Anyway the trailer looks like an artsy emo film at first. When I saw the trailer, I wasnt paying attention to who directed it or anything and was thinking--- Oh great another artsy movie. Just what the world needed" and then suddenly was shocked to discover two things 1: Paul Giamatti (I hope I spelled that right) is in the movie. 2: Its a horror movie. The trailer was after that point a great trailer and I am now mildly excited to see this movie. Check it out

Harry Potter Speculation

I know that many many film fans like myself also love the book series Harry Potter. And that is why this post is about a non film related subject. It appears that in the Dutch Release of Harry Potter has instead of R.A.B., R.A.Z. The Dutch way of saying Black is "Zwarts" which lends a lot of evidence to the idea that R.A.B. is Siriuses brother Regulus.(I think that is spelled right?)
link to article: WILD SPECULATION YO
Also for more Harry Potter related goodness check out "Harry and the Potters"
They are a rock band that sings about Harry Potter. I am probably going to have to get their album soon, because they are just that awesome. Anyway have a listen---Warning though you will get embarrassingly bad choruses stuck in your head like "Cho CHAAAANG, what have I done? I don't want to hear about, hear about when you and Cedric were snogging" Dang I hope these guys come up to play in M-dub soon because that would be awesome

WHOA I just read a review to the script of Pirates of the Caribean 3. I cant really comment on it all that much because the whole entire thing is full of spoilers. FULL OF THEM I TELL YOU.

But if you are like me and cant resist a good spoiler-- read this link

Rush Hour 3

The other major news circulating on the blogosphere today is that Rush Hour 3 has finally been negotiated and is beginning preproduction. Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan signed on to the production this week. Chris Tucker to a cool 20 million and Chan to 10 million dollars. To add to that, to get all of the main actors back, New Line is offering up 40% of profit as well to Tucker, Chan, and others. 40!%!%!%!% That is a whole lot. I have never seen either of the Rush Hour movies, but they did look funny. Lets hope this movie is funny, otherwise New Line is going to be out a lot of money. Also Chris Tucker---20 million? That is a major line to cross for an actor, especially one whose last movie was Rush Hour 2. He must be a great negotiator to get that so here is cheers to him for making that line!

Harry Potter 4 Opening weekend money$$$

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire had the 4th best openin weekend of all time. While the numbers are not final yet, It appears that it made 101.4 million on opening weekend. It is also the only movie to do so that has not opened in May or June. I have a premonition that this movie is going to be breaking all kinds of records. Its just so great. The Harry Potter series has never been more popular, and the movie accompniments have never been better so that is why I am predicting such success

Uwe Boll makes me laugh

Seriously Uwe Boll is the man. This article I found is from 3/05 so its not at all recent but it features some lines from Uwe Boll that made me laugh out loud to the point I started coughing. He says in his interview about how long his movie adaptation of semi popular video game "DUNGEON SIEGE", and I quote "There were reports that we were going to release it in two parts because it is super long, but then I saw that King Kong is being released as a three-hour film, and we decided it was not going to be a problem to have a longer version" Mr. Boll, please do not take the liberty of comparing your crappy movie with what has a great likelihood of being a masterpiece. Also Boll goes on to talk about how instead of being released in two parts it will instead be released in one mind numbing movie that is around 2 HOURS AND 40 MINUTES LONG. No ones attention span will last that long. Seriously this movie is going to fail to an epic degree.

SUPERMAN RETURNS

The teaser trailer for Superman Returns has been posted. Its so great. I love the ideas behind this trailer. It just seems so epic. Superman has always seemed to be the ultimate embodiment of good and this trailer makes him look like a pure good warrior. Bonus: In the trailer the word Kal-el is used. Some celebrity-I forgot which one named their child Kal-el recently. Thats pretty awesome. I personally are not as big of a fan of DC Comics, but based on Batman Returns, they may be doing a much better job than Marvel who is so hit and miss. Heres to hoping this movie is awesome

Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire REVIEW

Last night at 12:01 am the curtain rose and I saw the new Harry Potter movie. Even though I had to get up today at 5:30 in the morning for school, It was worth it. The movie is bloody amazing! I know some of my friends who like to drink the hatred thought that the movie was dumb because it was not super super faithful to the book. I felt that the movie was as faithful as it could be to cut the huge volume that was GOF into a 2 and a half hour movie. They cut a lot of the stuff from the first 200 pages to shorten it, and it shows. This was the one major weak point of the movie because for the first 30-40 minutes the movie skips from scene to scene rather abruptly. But in my opinion that was the only major weakness. The acting was much much better than in the first 2, especially Harry and Hermione. Emma Watson is soooooooo hot at the yule ball (hey man i am only 1 year older than her so that's not weird for me to say) Actually she is hot in the entire movie, but especially in this scene. Hermione and Ron have a great scene during the ball. I don't want to say any more. Ron and the rest of the Weasleys seem to serve as the comic relief of the movie. Fred and George are like uber stoners throughout the whole entire movie and utter lines that seem straight out of "Dude Wheres My Car?" When I say that, I mean it in the best way. The movie would have been incredibly dark without this comic relief. The Death Eaters are seriously scary and the graveyard scene was depressing. Overall I loved this movie. It is a great addition to the Harry Potter franchise, and I feel that if I had to rank the movies I would put them in reverse chronological order. The forth is by far the best, 3rd is 2nd best, and so on. Anyway see for yourself, this movie is almost as much fun as Serenity was!
peace out,

V for Vendetta

V for Vendetta looks like a sweet movie already but this poster sealed the deal in my oppinion that it was going to be a sweet movie. I love the style in this poster it just looks awesome. Maybe I will get one of these posters for my collection of random posters.

A Scanner Darkly

Whoa, this isnt new news but I just saw the actual plot for "A Scanner Darkly" and I must say it is very very sweet. Here it is Plot: "Set in a future world where America has lost the war on drugs, undercover cop Fred (Reeves) is one of many agents hooked on the popular drug Substance D, which causes its users to develop split personalities. Fred, for instance, is also Bob, a notorious drug dealer. Along with his superior officers, Fred sets up an elaborate scheme to catch Bob and tear down his operation. Based on the Philip K. Dick novel." First off, the words Phillip K. Dick are magic to my ears. Thats all I needed to hear. Secondly this just sounds plain awesome. The animation style in the trailer is crazy weird but I like it so its good

Emma Frost- Xmen 3

Its a rumor that Emma Frost will be appearing in Xmen 3. Emma Frost was one of my favorite characters back during "Generation X" and when she was the white Queen. In the main X-men storyline she isnt that cool now, but hopefully she will be awesome in this movie. Also in the rumor the actress Ashley Hartman from "The O.C." fame will be Emma Frost. I googled her and she does seem to look the part. Here is her imdb page EMMA FROST?
Alright peace out,

First Descent

The trailer for First Descent was finally posted on Quicktime.com This movie is produced by Mountain Dew films and it chronicles the "story of the snowboarding revolution" Mountain Dew? Check. Extreme Action? Check. Pointless extreme slogans? Definite Check! Mountain Dew advocates a horrendously stupid view of the "action sport lifestyle" where its "go big or go home dude." To see them sponsor a film about an "extreme" sport that has so many people doing it, its as mainstream as football is not surprising because it will have a large audience draw and will work well as a marketing tool. The movie itself has a pretty sweet trailer, including 3 bits that are my favorite. In the beginning of it someone exclaims "holy shizzle" Hahaha Shizzle man! The other great part is when they claim they will be snowboarding "the last first descent in North America" Maybe I am wrong but the Chugach, and Canadian Rockies have alot of peaks that until recently would have been considered unskiable. So this means that there probably havent been first descents on them. The final great moment is a truly stunning moment when one of the boarders lands and has to outride an avalanche. I rewound and watched this moment 3 times. It was seriously impressive. Alright, see for yourself!

FREAKING COOL MAN

Okay so in my post arrested development depression, a bright gleaming light has emerged to pull me up. Will Arnett from Arrested Development and the writer and director of Da Ali G show are working together on a new project. This movie is going to cause many people to die of laughing. I might die laughing, but thats a risk I am willing to take. Read the full premise on aintitcoolnews.com Aint it cool?

Machinama

Here is a fascinating interview with the man who invented a program that was vital in the invention of the genre of Machinama(machinama to the best of my understanding is filming in video games and reediting this raw film into a story. The famous example is red vs. blue.) The interview is mostly about when is the genre of machinama going to take off. His answer is one I totally agree with. He basically says we almost have the technology but its really the story thats missing. The inteview is a fascinating story.

Arrested Development, NOOOOO

NOOOOO, my favorite tv show(pretty much the only thing worth watching on regular tv other than veronica mars) Arrested Development has been dropped from foxs schedule for the rest of the fall season. It will resume later for a total of 13 episodes this year (just enough for a dvd release). Its ratings are apparently to low for fox to support. Kitchen Confedential is also being dropped. Both shows will be replaced with reruns of Prison Break. Hooray that all the stupid rednecks wont get confused by arrested development before prison break can start. Heres hoping that fox makes the right choice and brings it back for another year. Come on fox I am counting on this show to make mondays fun.

Grandmas Boy

Its a slow day when the best thing I have to report about is one funny trailer. This movie called "Grandmas Boy" has the skill to put together a trailer that makes a movie that in all likelihood is going to turn out to be bad, look funny. For that, I congratulate them!

Ghost rider



The first pictures from "Ghost Rider" have been realeased. I am not certain what the motorcycle is called but it looks amazing. This movie is based on a Marvel comic book. Heres the press realease on it. "In order to save his dying father, young stunt cyclist Johnny Blaze sells his soul to Mephistopheles and sadly parts from the pure-hearted Roxanne Simpson, the love of his life. Years later, Johnny's path crosses again with Roxanne, now a gogetting reporter, and also with Mephistopheles, who offers to release Johnny's soul if Johnny becomes the fabled, fiery Ghost Rider, a supernatural agent of vengeance and justice. Mephistopheles charges Johnny with defeating the despicable Blackheart, Mephistopheles's nemesis and son, who plans to displace his father and create a new hell even more terrible than the old one. " This could be AWESOME

Scarlett Johansen!?!?!

It was announced that Scarlett Johannsen is going to be in a movie where she stars as an amazon warrior. Whose idea is this? If I were making this movie, I would not get Scarlett. No offense but seriously Angelina Jolie or J.lo would be awesome amazon warriors. I could actually see them beating up people. Also, This is a long way from when Johannsen got nominated for an oscar. Could she do well in the role? Yes, just look at Charlize Theron in Aeon Flux.(By the way, Her role in Arrested Develepoment last night was GENIUS. That was the hardest I have laughed in a long time) Is she the best choice though? Probably not. I have two words "the island." Anyway well see soon enough.

Matchpoint?

When I first saw the trailer for Matchpoint, I thought huh, that looks interesting. Its got Scarlett Johannsen in it who has been amazing in every movie I have seen her in. (For an interesting note, we decided today that Scarletts voice sounds like a feminine version of Bob Dylan). It also looks strangely similar to last years "Closer." But I did not feel it was worth note, so I forgot about it. Until yesterday when a friend noticed that WOODY ALLEN made this movie. Yes, that Woody Allen. Holy smokes, this looks nothing like a woody allen movie. See for yourself!

Iron Man/The libertines/

Iron Man Marvel has taken back the rights that it had licensed for Iron Man. After 2 years, nothing was being done so it appears that Marvel is going to start again with a blank slate. Darnnabit! I love Iron Man so this delay is excruciating. Oh well as long as they take the time to get it right! I dont want another Fantastic Four. Do you hear me Marvel? More like Spiderman, less like Fantastic Four!
Original article link: http://www.darkhorizons.com/news05/051104c.php
The Libertines Johnny Depp fans pay attention. Libertines stars Johnny Depp as (taken from the site) "John Wilmot, the second Earl of Rochester has a passionate romance with a young actress, Elizabeth Barry, and he writes a scurrilous play which lampoons the monarch who commissioned it, Charles II, leading to the Earl's banishment and eventual downfall." The trailer itself is a teaser trailer which is horribly done. Its done in a strange look that looks like a blurred, old, Super 8 film. Seriously what is up with that. My d8 camera looks better than that stuff. The movie looks relatively interesting than. Ever since Charlie and the Chocalate Factory, I have though Depp was alright, but this role may make me think that he is a talented actor AND an oddball that he regularly plays. Also the films trailer declares itself as "The most controversial movie of the year" What is it with movies declaring themselves things this week. First we have Hostel and now this. I am pretty sure a movie about something that happenend in the 1600s isnt going to be the most controversial movie of the year, but.... maybe Check it out for yourself.

Jarhead After my local paper just bombed this movie, I checked its rating at Rotten Tomatoes. Right now its at 57% I really want this movie to suceed because the trailer is so awesome. But 57% isnt horrible, but it is not great either. My prediction... Great opening weekend, dive bomb off after that, with no chance for an Oscar. While 57% do like it, no ones calling it a must see movie.

HORROR FILLED FRIDAY

Man, today is full of horror movie announcements!
Final Destination 3 The trailer for Final Destination 3 is up on quicktime. I never saw the first 2 in this series but this trailer just makes the series look hilariously bad. The storyline seems to follow a group of people on a roller coaster that Death is after. Stick around for the end of the trailer because it features some of the worst trailer cgi since the Herby Fully Loaded trailer.

Bits and Peices

Sorry, no full posts today, my school work had to come first. Without further ado though
Jackass 2 has been green lighted. Just when I was thinking to myself, Oh man do we need another one of those. Actually the first one was somewhat funny (especially in the movies extras in which they build a human goldberg device, and in that scene where he jumps into the fan) but I really am not going to go out of my way to see this second one
L.LO news Ahh some of everyones favorite topic. LINDSAY LOHAN! It appears she has decided she is an (IN FRENCH ACCENT) Actor. She has signed on to a movie where she can really prove her acting chops, or acting metal if you prefer. She will be playing the role of a girl who befriends the man who shot John Lennon, the weekend before he shoots him. SOUNDS FASCINATING. Next thing you know we will be seeing Lindsay on "inside the actors studio" talking about how shes a "method actor"
Thats all for today!

Oscar predictions?

Some extremely early oscar predictions have been posted on gold-derby. Just thought I would share them because its interesting but I would also like to note that alot of these movies have not even come out yet and are based on assumption. One thing I feel extremely safe assuming is a nomination for best visual effects is King Kong. I cant wait to see kong roaring aroung ripping stuff up.

Underworld: Evolution

This trailer was just posted on the apple site. Finally someone who knows how to make a trailer right. This baby is rocking. Explosions, gunfire, intriguing plot, decent special effects, and sweet, sweet music. While I never saw the original Underworld, this one looks half decent. It at least looks like a fun way to spend a few hours. Still of the epic battle of good and evil movies I am looking foward to, Nightwatch still looks tons better. But its hard to compare because I think Nightwatch has had one of the best trailers of all time (up there with Garden State teaser trailer, and Jarhead trailer) Anyway see for yourself

8 Below

ARGH!... I saw this today and was disgusted with the depths Disney will sink to. The movie is the story of a man(Paul Walker (seriously if your star is Paul Walker you can already tell this movie is going to stink) who lives in antartica with his 8 dogs and after boldly venturing on a scientific mission that goes awra he is forced to leave the dogs behind. The dogs make a heroic journey home and blah blah blah. Seriously, this is the BEST they could do. Want some more evidence of how stupid this movie is. Look at the poster. I am horrible with photoshop and I could have done a better job than they have done. Also the title is sooo clever. 8 Below. Cause theres 8 dogs and there in antartica below the rest of the world and the temp could be 8 below freezing or something like that. SO CLEVER

Jarhead review

NOTE: this is not my oppinion. I have not seen the movie. I had to give my passes to the advance screening to a friend. What follows is his oppinion:
The movie was dissapointing overall. Sam Mendez has made better movies and probably will continue to do so in the future. But this movie simply is not very interesting. This is because nothing really happens, its just crazy people who being out in the desert is causing them to get wackier. The training segments at the beginning are amusing but for most of the movie is not funny. The reason to movie is rated R is because the swear NONSTOP throughout the movie. Jarhead hits its highest point when with stunning camerawork, the army walks through burning oil fields. The advance screening was packed which speaks well for a good opening weekend, but will this movie have the staying power if its a clunker? In my oppinion, no but we will have to see.
Peace out

Trouble brewing for Shrek 3

Note: I got this from a unreliable source /note According to this source, Justin Timberlake, who has been hired to play a central role in Shrek 3(because his girlfriend Cameron thought he would be just PERFECT for it) is not surprisingly failing miserably at it. This could be because he has no talent whatsoever and has thus far been relying on looks, but according to a unnamed dreamworks source "hes just not a voice actor"(I had no idea he was any kind of actor but okay..... Anyway, best of luck to the dreamworks crew in dealing with an actor who cannot act. (may i suggest tobias funke. I believe he would be perfect for the part of King arthur.)

Eli Roths: HOSTEL

After I saw this disgusting, horrible trailer for Hostel, I just had to write about it. First off, the trailer reveals the twist that people pay money to torture others. If there were a handbook of things to not put in a trailer for a movie... I am pretty sure not revealing the big twist is number 1. Besides that, this trailer is just gross, and had several scenes in it that I cringed and that is not something easy to accomplish. For some reason though this trailer is not red banded, and can instead be shown before the showing of any movie. This is not appropriate at all for any children. I am just going to say that. Any way the other great accomplishment of this trailer is the fact that in the trailer it says "from the masterminds that brought you: Cabin Fever, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Kill Bill Volume 2" Declaring your self a mastermind in your own trailer is pathetic. Eli Roth(the director) takes it a step further though and the movie is introduced as Eli Roths: Hostel. Come on man, you made 3 movies, 2 of which are horrible and you go and declare your movie with your name in front. Thats worse than pathetic! Heres the trailer http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/hostelqt1.html

Video Vault: Beetleborg Metallix

In this first installation of Video Vault we will be going back to one of my favorite childhood shows, Beetleborgs. The show is a cheap rip off of Power Rangers that featured the same cheesy acting and action style. I liked the show better because it has a kicking rad theme song. Dont believe me? Watch the show and you will spend the next few days singing it. Anyway in the heady days of 1997 when Beetleborgs was all the rage, a movie was made. This movie was known as Beetleborgs Metallix. I missed at least the first 30 minutes of the movie because the person before me didnt rewind and I was to lazy to rewind all the way to the beginning (please be kind, rewind mmkay?) but suffice to say I figured out the plot quickly. It follows one central extra evil monster that is so powerful that he easily destroys the regular Beetleborg suits. He then goes and springs an evil cartoonist out of jail. This is because in the beetleborg world anything a cartoonist draws can be turned into an object. The evil cartoonist begans to scribble out devices of such awesome power I could hardly begin to comprehend. One such device was the "WORMTANK" Its a giant worm that crawls along the surface in lovingly rendered 1997 low budget CGI. Im not sure why the worm tank is scary because it is alot slower than the regular tank and can be destroyed as the beetleborgs discover by "TRIANGULATING your fire" Yes they did say triangulate in a kids show. Maybe they were hoping with such big words they could get an educational award or something. I dont want to spoil the ending but the Beetleborgs get new suits that in the real world would be called WMD because there so destructive and powerful and stuff. In the movie though they give them to a bunch of kids. Gotta love kids with weaponry. The climatic end battle scene features some of the worst minature work ever seen, and has action words such as KAPOW and SHAZAAM appear over the explosions in a Batman and Robin like manner. At one point the word KAUIE appeared causing a great amount of indignantion among the audience because KAUIE is not a word. The other great entertainment value of this movie is its amazing catchphrases such as "CHILL OUT" after a guy was frozen in a block of ice. Please if you have any sense of humor go see this movie because I havent laughed this hard since I saw Are You Afraid of the Dark! But more on that later.

Never Been Thawed

I was looking through the list of movies playing at my local independent theatre soon and noticed this gem NBT: Never Been Thawed. I cannot find a trailer so a description must suffice. Taken from IMDB
Shawn is the founder of the Mesa Frozen Entree Enthusiasts Club. He has inspired this group of fanatical collectors to attempt to host the world's first Frozen Entree Enthusiasts Convention. Shawn also sings for a local punk band that has recently converted to Christian Rock as they find the Christian fans much easier to shock and impress. Milo Binder, a local Christian rock promoter and owner of an anti-abortion themed Christian cafe, assisted the band's conversion. As Shawn pursues the convention and Christian fame, Al (the bass player) pursues Shelly. Shelly is a mousy virgin who's infatuation with Shawn may be more than AL can overcome. NBT is a dark, edgy warts-and-all comedy that leaves nothing sacred.
In my oppinion this movie sounds kind of like a funny version of Napoleon Dynamite. Random stuff happens in it, but hopefully it happens at a slightly faster pace than Napoleon did so I dont fall asleep. I cant wait for this movie

Spiderman 3 villains released

Kristin Dunst confirmed rumors in a recent interview that Thomas Haden Church is Sandman, and Topher Grace is Venom. Yes that Venom. The one in the comics that was incredibly ripped and beat people up with ease. Now we have the nancy boy Topher Grace. Topher Grace would probably be my last choice. He plays Venom. There is not alot of character development that Eddie Brock did in the comics, just alot of butt kicking and looking angry at Spiderman. You know who does these two things really well? VIN DIESEL!!!!!!! Please Sam Raimi if you read this, its not to late to change. Replace Topher Grace with Vin Diesel

New Power Rangers Show

You heard right. The plot, or should I say lack of plot, has been released for the 2006 Power Rangers series. THEY HAVE MAGIC. yes MAGIC. Sigh, the series has been all downhill from the first season.

Heres the plot:

Jeff Daniels in a new movie

Remember Dumb and Dumber? Jeff Daniels was in Dumb and Dumber, but unlike Jim Carrey did not have HUGE HUGE success following that movie. While they played off each other quite well in that movie, Mr. Daniels wasnt the kind of physical comedy funny that Jim Carrey was. Anyway here is the trailer for his new movie The Squid and the Whale Here is the plot description from IMDB.com The patriarch (Jeff Daniels) of an eccentric Brooklyn family claims to once have been a great novelist, but he has settled into a teaching job. When his wife (Laura Linney) discovers a writing talent of her own, jealousy divides the family, leaving two teenage sons to forge new relationships with their parents. Linney's character begins dating her younger son's tennis coach. Meanwhile, Daniels' character has an affair with the student his older son is pursuing.

What I liked in this trailer:
The scene where he is like "hes a philistine." I laughed at that
The song at the end that had "self destructive fool" as a chorus. Does anyone know what that song is?

What i didnt like
That one shot of Daniels in the car just sitting. The reflection on the glass was ugly.
The fact that the trailer does not give an overall sense of the story.

Anyway see for yourself. I am looking foward to this movie

Disney!!! What have you done!!!

Yesterday i received news that disney had put out a trailer for the Herbie Fully loaded movie. Well being a herbie fanboy I had already been complaining for months about how linsey lohan had been hired to replace don knotts. Unlike don knotts lindsay lohan has no talent and is not funny. what she does best is look confused. look at all of her movies except parent trap. she looks perpetually confused like "what am i doing here" Well i viewed the trailer. It was horrible. This is going to be the Garfield of 2005. The "special effects" arent special at all. I laughed twice during the trailer. When the car landed on top of the monster truck and when herbie did a wheelie over that other car. This is becuase i think several people with basic training in how to make cgi could have done better than what they did. NOT only that but now herbie is supposed to seem alive so he moves around headlights and stuff. NOT ONLY THAT but during the trailer it went thru several "hip" songs that were supposed to make us teen generation think this movie is hip and with it. Sorry old marketing dude. when you make a movie just so you can buy another yacht im not fooled. The songs in this werent even cool 3 years ago. "Butterfly"!??!?!? "ICE ICE BABY"!?!?!?!? IS NOT COOL. view the trailer and decide for yourself. someones got to stop disney is all im saying

Fight At School.

Yes it has to happen once a year. I have to see a fight at school. I have missed the recent crop of them but have heard alot about them. So today during lunch I was sitting where i normally sit then all of asudden theres a loud clatter and I see two girls fighting. They were not landing any good punches more like wrestling around. The guy who patrols the lunch room quickly sprinted down and took one of the girls under the arms and hauled her away. Then the other girl was being chased around by another lunch room lady who was shouting "calm down" LIKE THAT WAS GOING TO WORK. Pretty much the half of the lunch room that could see was all standing up craning for a look. People began to sit down after the one girl appeared to be restrained and the other decided to sprint away down the hall. Thats when it happened. The girl who appeared to be restrained flipped the lunch room guy over her SHOULDER and the lunch room guy landed in her food/milk she had spilled at the start of the fight. She then sprinted after the other girl down the hall. The guy hastily picked himself up and SPRINTED after the girl along with half of the lunch room who quickly picked up their stuff and ran after not wanting to miss the fight. The fight quickly dissapated after that and was overall not that exciting. The girls never really landed any solid blows and the staff was able to seperate them quickly. An unconfirmed rumor is that during the fight one of the girls had a bunch of pot fall out of her pants pocket but this is not for certain.

Kickin rad craiglist prank

this website knows where its at. this is an excellently executed prank. some of the responses are genuinly frightening as people apply to be a member of a secret trip to rescue a girl. The people are told that they are joining a team to rescue a kidnapped friend. What the people dont really realize is that the jobs they are applying for are the exact same as the ones in the show........ The A Team http://stuffo.howstuffworks.com/a-team-finding4.htm
