A few days ago we got our first look at Vin Diesel as Riddick in RIDDICK. If that wasn’t enough of an eye-full for you, Vin is back with yet another picture of himself! Coming from his Facebook page, I give you…Riddick in Repose.
Time to gut that fish!
I know what I’m hoping to get from this movie; i.e. more PITCH BLACK and less CHRONICLES, but I just don’t know what to expect. So for now I am just looking forward to seeing the trailer so I can get a better grasp of the final product. Until then we’ll just have to be content to ogle Vin Diesel in his various leather garments.
By now you probably know that The Rock will soon be gracing our Cineplex’s nationwide in the 3D movie JOURNEY 2: THE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND. The first trailer has been out for a while so to keep things fresh we’ve got a new one! Rejoice and be glad in your own special way!
I like this trailer more than the first one. They showcase a lot of the action sequences and keep the humor on the back-burner…where it belongs. But really, we all know what this movie is going to be giving us. If you haven’t decided yet whether you’ll be going or not, this hasn’t changed your mind. Way to be stubborn!
Now here’s an interesting bit of…uh, trailer? It’s for a movie called LOCK-OUT that stars Guy Pearce as a loose cannon who is the only one who can save the President’s daughter from…being killed I guess, they’re not too specific about it in the movie. Anyway, check out the trailer IN SPACE!
I heard someone compare this to ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, which seems legit except that the antihero this time is a lot more talkative than Snake was; which is kind of lame actually, but whatever. At least there’s some violence.
Now that I think about it, is there any job out there that couldn’t be done better with a loose cannon? I guess arranging your filing cabinet or something would probably be better left to Johnny Followtherules, but everything else? Loose cannon all the way.
If you love Moses and E.T. as much as me, then you’re going to really like this news coming from Deadline. Apparently Steven Spielberg will be directing an Exodus movie called GODS AND KINGS, which will give us the story of Moses in a “grittier” fashion.
From what I’m hearing they’re looking for Spielberg to make this movie like he did SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, which seems stupid. This movie is about a man who proclaims the coming of plagues, talks to God through a burning bush, and parts the Red Sea…this isn’t a movie that really fits into a gritty, realistic setting. I honestly don’t understand Hollywood’s obsession with making the fantastic realistic. I like seeing the fantastic on the big screen since I get to see reality every day. Show me something I haven’t seen!
We haven’t heard much regarding THE TERMINATOR franchise since the rights to make the movies went up for grabs and were eventually snagged by some lady named Megan Ellison…and we’re still not hearing much, but what we are hearing is good news!
The guys over at The Terminator Fans asked Ms. Megan the following question on Twitter and got the following response:
TheTerminatorFans.com: @meganeellison We hope you can bring this franchise back from the brink of PG-13 HELL!
Megan Ellison: @terminatorfans We can’t really tell you guys anything about Terminator BUT it will be an R rated film as God and James Cameron intended.
This lady better not just be blowin’ smoke! I actually liked TERMINATOR SALVATION, but it would be nice to see these movies return to the land of “R.” This feels especially appetizing today after the horrible THE EXPENDABLES 2news. WHY SLY?!
This isn’t all that interesting or informative, but I guess it does fill in some story holes for us. A plot synopsis for THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN first popped up over at The Times of India and was then put up in other places…including here. Check it!
The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield), an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Martin Sheen) and Aunt May (Sally Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Emma Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents’ disappearance — leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr. Curt Connors (Rhys Ifans), his father’s former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors’ alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.
Now this is an awesome surprise! It seems that Mel Gibson has been starring in a movie! WOOO! The movie is called HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION and there’s a trailer online. The trailer is in Russian, but hey, beggars can’t be choosers. Let’s watch!
I have no idea what is going on in this thing, but it still looks awesome! It seems like some kind of Mel Gibson vigilante movie, which is the best kind of movie.
I also found a movie poster for this thing on the interwebs and it’s…alright.
It seems that the internet just can’t get enough still images from JOHN CARTER. Case-in-point, two new character shots from the movie popped up over at Comic Book Movie. The images show Matai Shang, played by Mark Strong and Sab Than, played by Dominic West. Here we go!
Who rules?!
This is my happy face.
Alright; awesome. Seeing as how I have no prior knowledge of these characters, I can only assume that these renditions are completely accurate to how they should be portrayed. That’s great news, me! Yes, it is.
The things that I am about to write in this little article about THE DARK KNIGHT RISES are a little spoilery, so if you don’t want to know things you best walk away, Pilgrim. For those of you with a thirst for knowledge and balls (but not a thirst for balls), let us continue.
The other day, the young actress Joey King revealed in an interview with My Entertainment World that she will be playing a young Talia al Ghul in THE DARK KNIGHT RISES. The guess right now is that Ms. King will be appearing in a flashback scene with Josh Pence playing a young Ra’s al Ghul.
And today we got an even bigger spoiler as Liam Neeson told Show Biz Spy that he will be reprising his role as Ra’s al Ghul at some point during the movie. He didn’t have anything else to say about the matter, but don’t take my word for it, here’s Mr. Neeson himself.
“I can tell you nothing about Dark Knight Rises, seriously,” the actor told ShowBizSpy. “I was on set for maybe an hour-and-a-half and the director didn’t tell me anything of what it’s about. So, I’m being very honest when I say I have no idea what’s going to happen.”
This movie seems absolutely stuffed-to-the-gills with villains and plots. I have no idea how they’re going to juggle all of them unless they only play lip-service to a few of them, which would be pretty lame. But hey, Liam Neeson!
I don’t know about you, but the last time I heard anything about the remake of THE CROW was when Bradley Cooper left the title role because of scheduling problems. That was back in August…AUGUST! Apparently, since that time, two different studios have been in court trying to decide who exactly had the rights to create the remake.
That little snafu was resolved a few days ago and now we’re getting word from Heat Vision that some dude named F. Javier Gutierrez has been hired to direct the movie and some other dude named Jesse Wigutow will write the script.
Mr. Gutierrez is apparently a pretty unknown director, especially in these here parts. He made a name for himself by directing the Spanish-language horror movie BEFORE THE FALL, which I have never seen. Mr. Wigutow has only written crap.
So, we’ve got a director tackling his first big, Hollywood movie and a writer whose best work was ERAGON…does anyone else smell an Oscar?
My name is Chris and I love action movies. Here, on the internet, I will share the latest action news along with my own uninformed opinions. Join me won't you.
