Still in that dry spell of films being released, and with New Moon pushing an odd Saturday release last week for their disk on the rental shelves and retail regretting their midnight opens for the 23 screaming teenage girls who coudln’t wait until morning, this is the morning after.
So what’s on the shelf [...]

Get him to the Greek Redband Trailer Online

The very best thing about Forgetting Sarah Marshall is Russell Brand’s portrayal of fictional rock legend Aldous Snow.
That guy was just made of awesome and I loved him to death. Not a big fan of anything else Brand has done (though a Drop Dead Fred remake seems made for him) but I [...]

Weird: The Al Yankovic Story Trailer Online

I am actually surprised this hasn’t happened yet! Funny or Die has put together a Weird Al Yankovic Trailer for the untold biopic of his life and rise to fame.

Looks like former Fantastic Four actor Chris Evans has been formally offered the 3 film role of Steve Rogers in Captain America: The First Avenger.
If the source is correct (and Evans reschedules his Romcom with Anna Faris set to shoot at the same time as Cap) we could be seeing Evans in the [...]

Kick-Ass: Meet the Mistmobile!

With Kick-Ass nearing and into fanboys hearts everywhere, MTV has delivered a short clip featuring the Red Mist as he shows off his MistMobile!

Predators Trailer Online

I am REALLY liking the look of this. Predators is hoping to stand out as a valid addition to the franchise and not just a remake.

Peacock Trailer Online

Now this looks downright creepy. Cillian Murphy always does a great job playing someone a little unhinged so he works great in this role, but who would have guessed that his other talent is that he would make a wonderful cross dresser?
Peacock is a psychological thriller where a quiet small town man has a [...]

Eat Pray Love Trailer Online

Julia Roberts just oozes with appeal. She is a beautiful woman, a bold presence and her greatest trait isn’t that goose laughter… its her vulnerability. And that is why I want to see this movie.
Based on a true story (Based on the memoir by Elizabeth Gilbert) about a woman on a [...]

Reitman might be Replaced to Direct Ghost Busters 3?

The Bear and the Bow is now called Brave?

Seems that Disney has been in a re-naming frenzy and the tipoff comes from a flurry of recent website and Trademark registrations to do the confirming for us instead of asking those untrustworthy marketing PR folk!
Seems that The Bear and the Bow will be retitled as Brave.
TradeMork tipped me off:
On March 12, 2010, Disney Enterprises, [...]

Happy St Patrick’s Day

As all holidays tend to, each one strays from its intended purpose and finds itself revolving around some sort of food or object. Thanksgiving is about a turkey and shopping, Easter is about a bunny and chocolate, Christmas is about Santa and Presents. But St Patrick’s Day – originally a Catholic observation to [...]

The Hobbit begins filming in June

This generated a little geeky squee from me this morning (then I looked around to make sure no one heard that) as it is a small detail but it means it is coming.
RamaScreen shares:
THE HOBBIT’s, two films, start shooting in New Zealand in June. Filming will take over a year. Casting in Los [...]

Rose McGowan joins Conan – Not Red Sonja

Rose McGowan has signed on to the new Conan reboot. While the knee jerk reaction is that she would be playing Red Sonja since the Conan spinoff character’s film that she was slated to star in was stalled to oblivion. But that is not the case. She will be playing a halfbreed [...]

Batman Vs Superman almost Stared Christian Bale as Supes!

Back after the comic book movie recession (thanks Schumacher) a number of franchises were being looked at for feature films. One approach was to bring back Batman and Superman in a single film where they faced off against each other. On the final shortlist for Superman in that film?
Christian Bale.

Between Two Ferns Interviews Ben Stiller

Zack Galifianakis does this series called Between Two Ferns on Funny or Die, and his best one yet is online today with Ben Stiller.
In the series he basically does the WORST possible interviews, messing up actors names, doesn’t see their movies, etc. Its a web produced celebrity nightmare.

I love the “Did you ever wish [...]

The War of the Showgirls is On – Both Sides Losing!

If there was anything more terrible than Rena Riffel’s attempt to create a Showgirls sequel, it was the German filmmaker (I use the term loosely) who did it first and is causing an internet phenomenon about just how bad it is.
But when Rena Riffel (an actor who played one of the dancers in [...]

Amanda Seyfried joins Albert Nobbs

Amanda Seyfried will be lending her beautiful looks and charm to a Glenn Close produced period film set in 19th century Ireland called Albert Nobbs. I hope she can do a convincing Irish accent!

Seyfried is becoming the new it girl, and Variety reports that she’s just joined the cast of Albert Nobbs, based [...]

Edward Norton Talks Hulk – No Sequel No Cameos

The Incredible Hulk owes any of its success to the portrayal of Dr Bruce Banner by Edward Norton. Well on the tip of everyone’s lips with Marvel rolling out the big films is when, if ever, are we going to see Norton as Banner. I would have thought with the Super Soldier Serum [...]
