Learn About Paul
Source: Slash Film Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are the modern day British Martin and Lewis to me. Put those guys together in anything other than a gay pornography and I’ll buy the special edition DVD in a heartbeat. Pegg and Frost themselves have given us the first look into their new film, PAUL, a buddy film about two geeks who find an alien while vacationing in the states. The video from What is...

Kick-Ass Pictures!
Source: MTV News The story, it kicks ass. The cast, it kicks ass. The title, it kicks ass. The picture, it’s adequate. MTV has an exclusive picture of Christopher “McLovin” Mintz-Plasse in full costume as The Red Mist in the upcoming film adaptation of Mark Millar’s graphic novel, KICK-ASS. The Matthew Vaughn directed film doesn’t have a release date yet, but expect more details coming our way...

2 Halloween 2 Pics
Source: Bloody Disgusting Bloody Disgusting has gotten their misanthropic mitts on two exclusive hi-res pictures of Michael Myers from Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN II. The pictures feature the masked murderer’s menacing mug shot backlit in a murky sky and the malevolent marauder of massacred men, meandering up the stairs. HALLOWEEN II comes to theaters August 28th this year. Check out the images...

World’s Greatest Trailer
Source: Hulu I’m very excited about Bobcat Goldthwait’s new film WORLD’S GREATEST DAD. Some of you will watch this red band trailer and think this film is only risqué for its constant mentioning of the menstrual cycle and maybe an f-bomb here or there. But for those of you who heard the big twist in the film (and it’s not in this trailer, believe me) will look at this and realize this is just the...

TRON PLOT!
Source: Slash Film The name might be just TRON now, but the sequel to the original TRON that once went by the name TR2N, or TRON 2.0, and TRON: REVENGE OF THE TRON just got an official plot from Disney. TRON is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world that’s unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), the tech-savvy 27-year-old son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff...

Ramis Talks 3
Source: Making Of   GHOSTBUSTERS 3 is a hypothetical movie that has that has been bouncing around the interwebs for a few years now.  Although older fans might not appreciate it, we did get a pretty cool Ghostbusters video game this year which says something about the franchises worth. I, for one, enjoy that I get to be in control of a new adventure with Slimer and the crew without all the weight...

Bland Bones Poster
Source: Cinematical I dated this girl once who read THE LOVELY BONES and told me to give it a go while she took a shower. Within the first 10 pages our protagonist and narrator, a young girl, is horrifically murdered and her body hidden by an old man she trusted. The rest of that afternoon was not one of the most comfortable of lazy days we shared to say the least. And this poster? Not the most...

Facebook Good?
Source: ScriptShadow If you told me in 2006 that I would one day be adding my childhood best friend’s parents on Facebook I would have called you a liar. Today, they still aren’t, but that’s only because I refuse to accept their endless friend requests. Thus is the social collosus that is Facebook. A Facebook movie was announced earlier this year to mixed reaction and no knowledge of the plot....

Zak Talks Avengers
Source: Crave Online These days, Marvel is churning out film-adaptations of their most popular comics like my Dad goes through pairs of socks. This year, our only woolen ankle warmer was the disappointing WOLVERINE, but in the upcoming years Marvel has some great looking lederhosen on it’s birthday list including: THOR, CAPTAIN AMERICA and IRON MAN 2. Then in 2012, Marvel is going to take all...

How Fembots Are Born
Source: Gizmodo If you haven’t seen TRANSFORMERS: REVENG OF THE FALLEN yet I’ll sum it up with this joke I just wrote. Ready? How long does it take to burn two-hundred-million dollars? Approximately 150 minutes, including credits. Thank you, thank you—I’ll be here all night! But seriously, folks, a lot of time and hard work went into that film and no matter how lackluster the story was you cannot...

Frog Featurette
Source: Latino Review This winter you can expect two things: gingerbread men and Disney’s THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG. If I was feeling impatient I’m sure I could find a gingerbread man somewhere in town, but what about THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG? I’d have to wait for it to snow before I can find Disney’s first 2D animated feature since 2004’s HOME ON THE RANGE.  Well, good things come to those who...

Superman Unknown
Source: Enewsi Brandon Routh, who donned the cape in Bryan Singer’s SUPERMAN RETURNS in 2006, may not be returning for the next film in the series.  Routh’s contract has expired while the highly anticipated follow-up is currently brewing in film purgatory. “The term of the contract expired, but if they call me again, [I’d go] back to the character without thinking twice!” It’s been long...

Baywatch The Comedy?
Source: Variety Funny man Jeremy Garelick has been tapped to write a film adaptation of the busty television show BAYWATCH for Paramount Pictures. Garelick, who did an uncredited rewrite of THE HANGOVER, will also make his directorial debut with the scantily-clad production. Apparently DreamWorks-turned-Paramount producer, Adam Goodman, purchased the rights to an adaptation back in 2005 and...

New District 9 Poster
Source: Film School Rejects We’re getting closer and closer to receiving a good glimpse of the Peter Jackson presented, Neill Blomkamp directed, über-hyped DISTRICT 9. You can see a new trailer before BRUNO this Friday, but if you’re getting antsy (like me), the fine people at Yahoo Movies will have the trailer up on Wednesday in glorious high definition. In the interim, us writhing fans have two...

Blade Trilogy Again?
Source: Comics 2 Film   Do you remember how awesome the first BLADE movie was? Do you remember how the next additions to the franchise decreased in awesome exponentially? Would you want to relive that excitement followed by constant disappointment all over again? Well now you can! Stephen Dorff is planning on reprising his role of Deacon from the first film for a new trilogy, created by both him...

The CGI adaptation of the famous anime was supposed to be directed by Kevin Monroe (TMNT) but he has since left the project, citing “creative differences.” The possible trailer was recorded directly off the HDTV at the Imagi Studios booth so the quality isn’t...
