trailer-for-the-other-woman-with-nikolaj-coster-waldau-and-cameron-diaz.jpg

Here's the trailer for a really strange looking comedy called The Other Woman, which features a situation between three women that I could never ever see happening in real life. The movie was directed by Nick Cassavetes (The Notebook) and stars Game of Thrones star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Leslie Mann, Kate Upton, and Cameron Diaz.

After discovering her boyfriend is married, a woman (Cameron Diaz) tries to get her ruined life back on track. But when she accidentally meets the wife he's been cheating on (Leslie Mann), she realizes they have much in common, and her sworn enemy becomes her greatest friend. When yet another affair is discovered (Kate Upton), all three women team up to plot mutual revenge on their cheating, lying, three-timing SOB.

The movie comes out on April 25th, 2014.

This is hands down the greatest and most impressive LEGO build ever. It's a life-size car built out of 500,000 LEGOs, and it has an engine built out of LEGOs that actually works! The engine is fueled by compressed air, and it powers 256 LEGO pistons and can allegedly reach speeds up to 20MPH. The car was built by a 20-year-old Romanian named Raul Oaida, and it's incredibly awesome!

I SAW THE DEVIL Getting English-Language Remake

I can't believe that after Spike Lee's weak sauce remake of Oldboy someone is actually going to attempt to remake Kim Jee Woon's insane revenge film I Saw The DevilAdi Shankar and Spencer Silna’s 1984 Private Defense Contractors has acquired the rights to the 2010 South Korean movie and will give it an English language remake. Shankar has this to say in a statement, 

"Kim Jee Woon's I Saw the Devil is perfect in so many ways. The intention is not to remake the film per say but rather to 'port' it console style for international audiences."

Well, that would be called remaking the movie, and there's no way they will do the original film justice. My only hope for this remake is that by making it, it will spark interest in people to take time to watch the original. That's the only positive thing I can see coming from these kinds of remakes. If you haven't watched it, you should check it out! I believe it's on Netflix.

The 2010 film starred Oldboy's Choi Min-sik who plays Kyung-chul, "a dangerous psychopath who kills for pleasure. The embodiment of pure evil, he has committed horrifying and senselessly cruel serial murders on defenseless victims, successfully eluding capture by the police. His latest victim is the beautiful Ju-yeon, pregnant fiancée of elite special agent Soo-hyun (The Good, The Bad, The Weird's Lee Byung-hyun). Obsessed with revenge, Soo-hyun decides to track down the murderer, even if doing so means becoming a monster himself. And when he finds Kyung-chul, turning him in to the authorities is the last thing on his mind. The lines between good and evil fall away in this diabolically twisted game of cat and mouse."

Check out this extraordinary series of fan art for the classic 1980s film The Neverending Story. This is a movie I watched all of the time as a kid, and it has my first movie girl crush–the Empress. When I was a kid I thought she was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. 

Artist Nicolas Francoeur has taken the classic characters from this movie and updated their look, giving us a glimpse at what they might look like if the movie was made in 2014. Even though I'm a huge fan of the original, I would actually like to see this movie get a remake, but only if it's not half-assed!

Gaming Heads, makers of statues based on Skyrim, Jak and Daxter, and Team Fortress 2, among others, have debuted their latest offering, which is none other than Square Enix’s survivor extraordinaire, Lara Croft. In this quite stunning ¼ scale (about 20’ inches tall) statue, Ms. Croft appears ready for anything with bow (or optional shotgun) in hand, though the shotgun is only included with the exclusive edition of the statue.

Both versions are based on art by Alejandro Pereira, and both versions are beautiful to the eyes. Tons of detail in the clothing and facial features as well as a pose that is all at once tender yet imposing make this a must have for any Tomb Raider fan.

The statue is part of a limited run of 500, and will run you about $340.00, so make sure to save some Christmas cash for your purchase.

This is the poster for Arnold Schwarzenegger's upcoming badass-looking action thriller Sabotage. The movie was previously called Ten, and it comes from End of Watch director David Ayer. The poster features Schwarzenegger and his DEA task force. This movie looks like it's going to be the best one Arnold has done since he got back into making movies. 

In the story, the team is tasked with taking on the world's deadliest drug cartels. "Specializing in complex mobile operations, the team executes a tactical raid on a cartel safe house. What looks to be a typical raid turns out to be an elaborate theft operation, pre-planned by the DEA squad. After hiding millions in stolen cash, the team believes their secret is safe – until someone begins assassinating them one by one."

Sabotage also stars Sam Worthington, Josh Holloway, Malin Akerman, Terrence Howard, Mireille Enos, Joe Mangianello, Olivia Williams, Max Martini, and Dawn Olivieri.

The movie comes out on April 11th, 2014! Check out the trailer here

SPOILERS ahead if you haven't watched the mid-season finale.

The mid-season finale to The Walking Dead was absolutely incredible! It was one of the most intense episodes of the season ever, and it lost one of its greatest villains… The Governor, who was worse than the worst zombie horde. In remembrance of the character, AMC has released this tribute video that features footage from the show and interviews with the cast and crew, including David Morrisey. Even though I hated the Governor so much, and I was happy to see him get what he deserved, he will be missed. He really was an awesome character. 

The Walking Dead season 4 is set to return on February 9th, 2014!

We've got another incredibly badass trailer for Jackie Chan's newest film project Police Story 2013, and this thing looks awesome! It's great to see Chan back in a badass role like this! 

The action thriller was directed by Ding Sheng, and Chan plays a mainland Chinese interpol officer who is investigating a kidnapping case. The movie is dark and violent, and Chan goes all out! 

The new trailer gives us more footage of the chaos and mayhem that takes place in the story. I'm really excited about this one. Maybe it's a good thing Chan did this instead of The Expendables 3. Thanks to Twitch for the trailer!


AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Seeks a Second Villain

According to our friends at Latino Review, Marvel is adding a second villain to Avengers: Age of Ultron. A Marvel casting breakdown is circulating, and they’re looking for a physically imposing caucasian man, aged 40-50, for a supporting role. Latino Review has learned that the role is Baron Von Strucker. Drew McWeeny at Hit Fix tweeted that he had confirmation and more details on the role he’ll play.

For those not familiar, Baron Von Strucker is a HYDRA leader, enemy of S.H.I.E.L.D. and The Avengers. He is ageless and has died multiple times, but always reappears. (SPOILER: El Mayimbe also reports that Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch will be working for von Stucker in the film, making them HYDRA? Maybe?)

The site also claims that Marvel has expressed interest in Martin Csokas (Rogue, the upcoming The Equalizer) and Dougray Scott (My Week with Marilyn, Ever After) for the role, although they note that it’s still early days, and that could change.

So there you go. How exactly Baron von Strucker will fit in with big bad Ultron remains to be seen, but it’ll be interesting to watch!

UPDATE:

(This is pretty SPOILERY information, so read it at your own risk.) HitFix reports that Baron Von Stucker will be the villain The Avengers are battling at the start of the film. He will not have an ongoing role throughout the film, but he introduces Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, who begin the film working with/for him. Their journey to become good or evil will be a major part of the film.

Jean-Claude Van Damme impressed the world with his epic Volvo big rig split commercial. Now we have a parody of that ad featuring a CG Chuck Norris epically one-upping Van Damme. It may be animated, but I can't help but think that it's based on something that Norris has actually done. It's called Greetings from Chuck (The Epic Christmas Split), and it was created by Hungarian animation firm Delov Digital. It's incredibly entertaining so enjoy! Thanks to Geekologie!

In this ridiculous, yet awesome looking, new film, Battle of the Damned, Dolph Lundgren teams up with a small army of robots to take on the zombie apocalypse! The apocalypse doesn't stand a chance! The robots have one mission, and one mission only against the zombies hordes, and that is "To fuck them up."

In the near future on the outskirts of civilization a remote test facility lays in ruin following a catastrophic security breach. All that remains is a handful of survivors, their small armory of weapons and a fleet of the infected.

The breach led to a viral outbreak that left thousands dead or mutated. Now the infected walk the land, stalking the few that still live. Led by private military operative Max Gatling (Lundgren), they fight the infected and soon learn there are band of malfunctioning prototype robots also on the march and they are armed and incredibly dangerous.

The movie hits Blu-ray and DVD on February 18th, 2014. Thanks to Geeks of Doom.

Anna Paquin's Rogue Cut Out of X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST

Director Bryan Singer has confirmed in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that Anna Paquin's Rogue will not be in X-Men: Days of Future Past. Her one scene in the film ended up on the cutting room floor. 

I'm not a big fan of this news because I loved Paquin as Rogue and was looking forward to seeing her back in the role! I guess it just wasn't meant to be, though. Singer explains,

"Through the editing process, the sequence became extraneous. It’s a really good sequence and it will probably end up on the DVD so people can see it. But like many things in the editing process, it was an embarrassment of riches and it was just one of the things that had to go. Unfortunately, it was the one and only sequence Anna Paquin was in, the Rogue character was in. Even though she’s in the materials and part of the process of making the film, she won’t appear in it."

I thought she would be in the movie more! One scene?! That's disappointing, but the movie still looks great! I just wish that she would have had a bigger role in the story. Singer goes on to emphasize that the decision had nothing to do with her or her performance.

"She did a fantastic job. She was awesome in the sequence. She’s a brilliant actress. I would work with her in a heartbeat."

He already told Paquin about the cut and says,

"She completely understood. It’s very disappointing, but she’s very professional and she knows that stuff happens, particularly with material you shoot early on in production. Films evolve."

It is disappointing. I wonder if we'll ever see her in another X-Men film at this point? It will be sad if we don't. I personally think she should get her very own spin-off movie, but maybe that's just me. 


AMERICAN HUSTLE Movie Review

american-hustle-movie-review.jpg

Director David O. Russell did it again! He has made another incredible movie. I absolutely love his storytelling and directing style, and American Hustle is easily an instant classic. The guy just seems to get better and better movie with every movie he makes. American Hustle is yet another movie to go on my list of top favorite films of 2013. If you liked The Fighter, if you liked Silver Linings Playbook, you're going to love this new film. Russell has inched his way in there as being one of my favorite directors of all time. I can't wait to see what he does next!

The movie had a solid story, the script was perfect, and the acting was incredible. Russell is a hell of a great screenwriter who knows how to develop and write great and interesting characters. It amazes me what this guy can do with these stories, and he brings these character to life. This just has everything that a movie fan will love. From the very start of the movie I was completely hooked. It didn't let go, and by the time the movie ended I wanted more.

Then there's the acting… wow! Everybody in the film was phenomenal! They all deserve awards. Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, and Bradley Cooper were all simply amazing and gave some of the best performances of their careers. But the one who stole the movie Jennifer Lawrence. Holy shit, she was good! I wouldn't be surprised she took home another Oscar for best supporting actress. It's an award that is well-deserved… good Lord, she was incredible. You've seen her in films like X-Men and The Hunger Games, but Lawrence is one of the most talented actresses working in Hollywood right now, and she owns this film and the character that she plays. Yeah sure, maybe I have a little crush on her, but she was still freakin' fantastic. Russell knows how to utilize all of these actors' strengths and talents for his characters in this film.

This is a must see film for anyone who enjoys going to the movies! It may not be a big budget, special effects heavy film, but it's got an incredibly entertaining story and compelling characters that everyone can enjoy! So just go out and see it when you get the chance! 

Russell is one of the best writers and directors working right now, and while studios continue to make big budget action, sci-fi, and comic book films, he's going to keep that classic timeless Hollywood filmmaking style alive.

Here's the full trailer for the Wally Pfister directed sci-fi thriller Transcendence. As expected, the movie looks pretty damn good. I'm very excited about this one, and I can't wait to see more. The movie also has a crazy good cast that includes Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Cillian Murphy, Cole Hauser, and Paul Bettany.

Dr. Will Caster is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed—to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn and friend Max, both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can... but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will's thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power—to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be no way to stop him.

The movie comes out on April 18th, 2014!
