-Get ready Twilight fans, the next movie(New Moon) has already been slated for next November. The franchise got a director yesterday(Chris Weitz). The movie will have some competition including Robert Downy Jr.'s Sherlock Holmes and a Three Stooges flick.
-I have a couple small facts here. Watchmen tickets are on sale even though the movie doesn't come out till next year. Oh and by the way...they're only on sale in one theater...GAY. Also a fifth Terminator is already in production. The producers expect that the new movie Terminator Salvation, will blow away the box office...I agree because I'll probably see it twice.

-It has been confirmed that Catherine Hardwicke the director of Twilight, will not return to direct the sequel New Moon. Hopefully that's a good thing because Twilight wasn't that good in terms of music and the camera shooting.

-ABC Family is having their annual Harry Potter movie marathon the weekend of December 5th. It will include the first four movies. The fourth will contain deleted scenes not included in the film. Throughout the weekend, there will be behind-the-scenes videos with information about Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. The times of these sneak peaks are not known. The marathon starts with the first movie Friday night, and ends with the fourth Sunday night.
-Whether it's a prequel or sequel, a second I Am Legend more is in the works. Will Smith, the director, and the writer have been signed on for another movie. The first story was that it would be a prequel telling the story about what Will Smith's character went through before New York was wiped out by the deadly virus. Now a site is saying that they are writing a prequel. A believe that's bull because Will Smith's character blew himself up in the end so how could he possibly come back.
-If you saw The Incredible Hulk, you probably remember that the scientist that tried to help Bruce Banner accidently had chemicals dripped in his wound when Abomination destroyed his lab. Now I'm sure you were thinking, why is his head bulging out? The answer to that question has now been confirmed, Tim Nelson, the actor that played the head-bulging scientist, will return to the next movie to play the role of the Leader. Since you probably don't know who that is, the Leader is a very intelligent man who creates weapons and tries to steal the power of the Hulk for his own. Did I mention that his brain get huge increasing the size of his head so it looks like a brain? Well now you know.

Quantom of Solace
Twilight
Wow. I am glad the winter movie season has begun. Last week I saw James Bond, this week I saw Twilight, and I'll most likely see Bolt and Australia this week as well so more reviews are on the way. For all you guys who think Twilight is a chick flick, you would be surprised by the action and intensity of this film. The acting was great, it stuck to the book for the most part, and the mushy, love kind of stuff you might find all throughout the book, is pretty toned down in the movie. Yes, the cast is pretty much all attractive so they picked the right people to appeal to teenage girls(whoever you like) and guys(Rosalie and Bella.) However, this probably isn't one you seven year old sibling would be seeing. If you want to see a action/romance movie, this is defiantly the one to pick. 7 out of 10.

He is also directing the new Wolfman(classic horror movie...super classic).

- Eagle Eye-7.0M
-There's a whole string of Marvel Comic Movie Related news this week.
- Daniel Craig(James Bond) turned down the roll of Thor this week. What! This roll offered so many movies including the saga itself, and the Avengers. He would have gotten lots of money and publicity for this role. Oh well. Daniel Craig doesn't look like a Thor kinda guy anyway.
- Samuel Jackson has revealed that he will be back for Iron Man two. That's awesome because we'll get to know S.H.E.I.L.D. a little more before avengers come out in 2011. Sam Jackson is a good actor as well so it's fun to watch him a play such an awesome character.
- The Incredible Hulk came out on DVD today(Tuesday) and there is lots of buzz on the Captain America cameo seen in the alternate opening of the film. Apparently you can see Cap frozen in ice along with his shield when Hulk rampages through Alaska. BUT, be ready for this cameo because it goes by really fast and is a distance away from the camera.

-For all you Pirates of the Caribbean fans who thought they were making a fourth movie...it's all bull. From the rumors of Borat being Jack Sparrow's brother to the rumor about Tim Burton directing it...it isn't happening.
-Alright, most of us know that there is going to be an Avengers movie in 2011 with the heroes Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, The Hulk, and Ant Man/Giant Man. We also know that in the two new marvel movies(Iron Man and Hulk) they left easter eggs in the movies that are setting up for the Avengers. An example is at the end of the Iron Man credits, Nick Fury(Head of S.H.E.I.L.D. the hero police) comes to Tony Stark and tells him that they are getting a team of super heroes together called the Avengers. AWESOME I KNOW! Well...some people at Marvel came up with this idea: What if instead of fighting an actual "bad guy" the Avengers dished it out with the Hulk. I think that's a great idea being that the Hulk has fought almost all the heroes in Marvel comics. Anyways...the movie will be awesome. Captain America, Thor, Iron Man 2, and Ant Man are all slated for 2010.

-Ha Ha! Disney has come to their senses and realized that the Hannah Montana movie has no chance making more money than Wolverine next May so they moved it back to April. Do I care...No.

-TYLER PERRY'S THE FAMILY THAT PREYS
I actually did go see the new Tyler Perry movie and since I have not done a review in a while, I'm doing one now. While this movie might not have been as good as other summer movies I saw this year, it was still an enjoyable movie to sit down and watch. The whole movie has a complex storyline but in a nutshell...it is about three families and it gives good example on why(SPOILER) you should NOT cheat on your husband and expect him to leave his wife for you. Yep, the actor that played the husband did a really good job showing how mad he was when he found out his wife cheated on him. Especially when he hit her and knocked her behind a counter. For the record, no,this movie is defiantly not a chick flick. I give it a 7 out of 10.

-Get this...Tobe Maguire is getting paid fifty million dollars to reprise his role as Peter Parker/Spider Man in the next two Spider Man movies. What a deal(I'd like to make that kind of money when I'm older).
-IF YOU DO NOT WANT T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IN THE NEXT HARRY POTTER MOVIE DON'T READ THIS! Well...one of the guys that run the website titled Mugglenet.com, a big Harry Potter website, was invited to a screening of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince(HBP). Crazy I know because the movie doesn't come out for almost another year. Well, he gave a review on the movie ad I'm about to share some things he said. The spoilers are very minimum in this post. For starters, he said that all the actors did a very good job with the movie and he liked how they included many things from the book. HOWEVER...what he also said is that two BIG scenes were cut from the movie. The two scenes were...The battle a Hogwarts and Dumbledor's funeral. OK, who else thinks its crazy to cut the climax of the movie? How are they going t work Dumbledor's death into the end? Also, Dumbledor's funeral is a very emotional and important part of the series.It should be in the movie. They also added to battle scenes to the movie so maybe that will make up for the cut ones. Oh well...it will still be a very good movie I'm sure. Can't wait to see it.

The Week of September 12th
-BIG NEWS THIS WEEK!!! Director Sam Rami( known for the Spider-Man franchise) and actor Toby Maguire(the guy who plays Spider-Man) have both signed on for Spider Man 4 and 5. Awesome I know...it seems that the two new movies will be filmed together which probably means that the 4th will end with a cliffhanger. The villain(s) have not been announced yet but possibilities include Lizard, Scorpion, or the Spider Slayers, a group of robots controlled by J. Jonah Jameson.
-Other Marvel news includes the fact that Nicholas Cage said another Ghost Rider is in the works. He said that the character will go to Europe in the new film(which will fit with the Catholic Church essence). For those of you who aren't familiar to Ghost Rider...he's a man that basically works for the devil. He rides around at night on a fiery motorcycle with demonized powers and the face of a skull.

What happened to Harvey Dent?

The Week of September 5th
-Johhny Depp has claimed that he is not yet casted to play the Riddler. That is something I'm dissapointed to hear because I think he would be great. Oh well, he still said that he would love to play the role so hopefilly Christpher Nolan will hear that and consider him fo the role.
-20th Century Fox has been in a lawsuit with Fox over the rights to the new hoghly anticipated comic book movie opening in 2009, Watchmen. Fox claims that the have the rights to the project. This of cousre will cause the new movie to be delayed. Once again a highly aniticipated movie is being pushed back. Haven't heard of Watchmen? The trailer can be seen at the bottom of the home page.

The week of August 29th
-A few Batman movie updates have been released. The 62 year old actress and singer Cher is signed on to play Catwoman in the new Batman film. I guess Christopher Nolan doesn't plan for Catwoman to be the younger, love interest of Batman(I hope not). Johny Depp is joining her as the Riddler. I personally still want a Mr. Freeze that doesn't have a huge gun, doesn't look cheesy, and isn't played by Arnold Scawarzenegger. The third Batman is currently titled, The Caped Crusader.

-Sadly(on a personal note) I have to go back to school Wednesday. However, the posting consistency WILL stay the same on this site. Hopefully the site will gain much more popularity wen I tell Friends about it.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars
First, I would like to dedicate this review to Drew Donovan for the many laughs we had when the dialogue in this movie got cheesy. This new chapter in the Star Wars saga was strictly an entertaining popcorn movie. The action scenes were fun to watch, the sound quality was very good, but the dialogue in this movie really got cheesy at certain parts(for the most part the cheesy line came from Anakin and his apprentice.) The only character who I thought had no crummy lines was Count Dukou. Another thing I didn't like is that the paragraphs at the beginning of each movie were replaced with another cheesy announcer voice. The original music wasn't in the movie either. Has George Lucas lost his mind? I give it a 5 out of 10. If your at the movies with your kids, take them to see this but if you don't go see Tropic Thunder.

Just When I Was Getting Excited About Harry Potter
Sunday, August 10, 2008
The week of August 15th
-A boycott will be happening this week. A number of disability groups will boycott Tropic Thunder because they say it makes fun of the disabled. Apparently the word "retard" is repeated throughout the movie referring to a character named Simple Jack. In the movie, Simple Jack is a character Ben Stiller plays to try and win an oscar.
-Get this. Weeks ago at Comic Con, tow girls dressed up as X-Men characters, Magma, and Storm. Apparently they were trying to pull off a stunt in which magma would light her arm on fire and Storm would put it out with water. Well Magma did light her arm on fire but Storm didn't put it out! The fire worked its way up to her hair. So...Hugh Jackman(the guy who plays Wolverine), is watching all this. He runs up and uses the girl's cape to put out the fire. Talk about real life hero.
-Here's a little something I have this week for those of you who would like to post comments...what movie do the you think X-Men Origins:Wolverine(the spin off based on Hugh Jackman's character) will be with. Here are some options: Harry Potter, High School Musical 3, Punisher War Zone(another Marvel movie), Quantum of Solace(the new James Bond movie) or any other movie you can think of.
Thursday, August 7, 2008
The Mummy 3
Monday, August 4, 2008
The week of August 8th
-Justice League(The DC comic characters teamed up) is back on the table for production. This has been an on and off thing so don't expect a movie for a couple of years. The Avengers movie will be so much better so I really don't care much about Justice League right now.
-For you Transformers fans who were sad to see Megatron get dumped into the ocean, you can throw away the tissues he's coming back. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR THE PLOT STOP READING. The villain in this movie is The Fallen, apparently it's a Satan equivalent to a Transformer. The Autobots need Magatron's help to fight this new robot.
If you haven't seen the trailers at the bottom of this page yet, get a look at them soon because I'm going to change them in honor of the August 15th movies.

I'm officially TICKED OFF
Thursday, July 31, 2008
The week of August 1st
-For starters, due to his hand injury which was caused by a car accident leading his arrest last week, Shia Labeouf is stalling the production of Transformers 2:Revenge of the Fallen which will open in 2009. He is currently under arrest for the suspicion of drunk driving. What an idiot...He is working of the biggest franchise of his life and he can't resist having too much alcohol then driving around and getting in an accident.
-Angelina Jolie is getting more attention now because see wants to star as Catwoman in the third installment of the Batman movies. According to LatioReview.com Warner Brothers is looking for a female lead character. Could she be the one?
-Rumors have started that Fox is prepping a X-Men First Class movie . For those who don't know First Class is a comic book that tells about the first X-Men which were Cyclops, Jean Grey, Beast,Iceman, and Angel.
-Last but certainly not least, talk has started again about a fourth Austin Powers movie. Mike Myers has already started writing the script. After how horrible his last movie "The Love Guru" was, he needs this.
If any of these rumors become true you can expect to hear more about them in the future
Movies of 2008
1. Dark Knight-Best Action/Drama I've seen in a long time.
2.Iron Man-Best Super Hero movie so far.
3.Get Smart-Loads of action mixed in with hilarious humor this was a great movie.
4.Hancock-I was surprised with how good Hancock was. The action sequences had great special effects and it had a great ending.
5.Incredible Hulk-Blows the first one way out of the water.
6.Hellboy 2: The Golden Army-A very entertaining movie this summer with stunning almost creepy monsters running on and off the screen.
7.Indiana Jones-The ending ruined it for me.

Harry Potter Trailer
Dark Knight
I feel like the first thing I should post on this site is how freaking awsome the Dark Knight was.
Christian Bale great, Gary Oldman great, Michael Caine great. But the two actors I was impressed with were Aaron Eckhart(the way he portyed becomeing a villian), and of cousre Heath Ledger( who did such a good job with the Joker it creeped me out.) The special effects and action sequences were amazing. I can't wait till the next one comes out.
