Zombies invade the movie theater!!




Do you hear that moaning as you leave the bar at 2 a.m.? It could be all the zombie fans lurking the streets this weekend. The one answer is Zombieland infects movie theaters around the states this Friday 10/3/09. This movie looks like tons of fun with Woody Harrelson going toe to toe with all sort of zombies. And from all early viewings of the film, it will be a smashing good time! It looks like a mix of Shaun of the Dead and Dawn of the Dead . So I am sure we can except the dead walking, running and coming to eat any human, with a shot of comedy thrown in! So who's down for killing some zombies?? I know I will check it out and be back with my brain filled review!


a Nightmare on Elm St. trailer is released!

So the first Nightmare on Elm St. trailer is all over the internet these days. For once I can say I am excited for a "reboot" of an older horror film. This film has Jackie Earle Haley starring as the menacing Freddy Krueger. And from the looks of it I think he will do a fine job as Freddy. Enough with all this talking about it. Here is the first trailer for Nightmare on Elm St. See you on Elm St!

Inglorious Bastards smashes the weekend and Avatar trailer is out!


Inglorious Bastards had a record-breaking opening weekend for the month of August. It raked in $38 million its first weekend. With District 9 coming in 2nd place following its strong opening day release. Some people say this is one of Quentin Tarantino's best films. He used a FEW factual events. And ALOT of his imagination in this re-make. And people are loving Brad Pitt's southern twang voice saying "Our business is killing Nazis." So with Inglorious Bastards kicking the ass of some Nazis soldiers to District 9 alien slum story. You have some nice films for your viewing pleasure.




Avatar trailer released

James Camerons first film since Titanic has had the first full trailer released last week. The Avatar trailer broke all types of records for downloads since its release. It has been in the works for 5 years now. So with all James Camerons time being spent on this film, we can only wonder will it deliver like all his past films. At last here is the long awaited trailer for Avatar.

G.I. Joe will the Cobra rise or fall this weekend?!?

So one of the last big action filled movies of the summer is upon us. G.I.Joe: Rise of the Cobra from early screenings its a fun filled cartoony action packed film. But why would Paramount not let critics review there movie? Well the answer is most critics slammed Transformers 2 another Paramount film and they don't want them doing the same to there last summer blowout movie! It's not only critics who think this film will do bad, it is the fans as well! So Paramount doesn't want the negative press from the critics, but to me this makes people think even more negative about the film. But one of the few early reviews on G.I.Joe: Rise of the Cobra is a good one from http://www.aintitcool.com/ Here is what they had to say: "You will be thoroughly entertained by this movie that simply never lets up on the action." So here is the take, it is all in the eye of the beholder! The main reason I still am interested in this film is two words Snake Eyes! So make your decision wisely on this next summer action flick!



2 Not so hyped New Movies



First off is the "love documentary" called Paper Heart. Starring Charlyne Yi who sets out on a journey to find out if true love does exist. She interviews all types of people from friends to strangers to romance novelists and even children. She ask them all there interpretation of love and does it exist. But on this journey she finds someone dear to her heart Michael Cera of Superbad (Unrated Widescreen Edition) fame and the camera rolls on while these two connect. This "documentary" looks interesting and fun to me. So check out the trailer for the film Paper Heart.


Next up is the film
I Sell the Dead A movie about 19th century grave robbers who have finally met there fate with the justice of the land. This story reflects on a young boys humble beginnings from stealing little things to stealing corpses and through these days he meets a grave digger by the name of Willie Grimes and they hunt down creatures who do not want to enter there final resting place. This film is getting a limited release. I for one will be going out to see this where ever I can. Here is a trailer for the film


So will you go out and see the supposed last big action blockbuster of the summer? Or will you take your viewing eyes to one of these less talked and hyped films?

Comic Con 09

So its another year of the biggest pop culture event Comic Con in San Diego. Comic Con is not just nerds with smelly armpits discussing the latest comic book news. It has become one of the biggest events for movie news and trailers! Movie stars were in full force the first 2 days at Comic Con. You had Johnny Depp to Kristen Stewart and the whole Twilight cast! Early word is that Twilight has ruled the Comic Con buzz. There were reports of lines so long to get into the Twilight Q and A. But besides the vampire followers of Twilight to me the big news was the release of the first Alice in Wonderland trailer! So here is the long awaited Alice in Wonderland trailer, brought to you by http://www.traileraddict.com/




Also another trailer released at Comic Con was Ninja Assassin. Here is a quick synopsis of the story. Ninja Assassin follows Raizo, the deadliest assassins in the world. Taken from the streets as a child, he was transformed into a trained assassin by the Ninjas of the Ozunu Clan, a secret society whose very existence is considered a myth. But haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the Clan, Raizo breaks free from them and vanishes. Now he waits, preparing to exact his revenge. This film is produced by The Wachowski brothers who also brought us The Matrix trilogy. And a familiar name to the comic world helped pen the script J. Michael Straczynski. Looks pretty badass from this early trailer. With that said here is the trailer for your viewing pleasure.




Yes comics and comic cons have become semi mainstream! With the likes of The Dark Knight and Iron Man movies. Everyone these days knows of comic books and there movie lines. So if you have never been to a comic store I suggest you go and just look around. You will find some great reading material. And it seems Hollywood these days is buying up every good comic that is out there to be made into a movie. So for me comic books and movies go hand in hand now.

Until next time....Same blog spot and same blog time....

Watchmen DVD released!!

The Watchmen DVD is released today. With that being said the Watchmen (Director's Cut) (Two-Disc Special Edition + Amazon Digital Bundle + Digital Copy) is suppose to be the way we all should see this film. I can't wait to see the full directors cut. The Director's cut has a running time of 186 minutes and it is how Zack Snyder intended on the movie to be seen.

Everyone thought this would never work as a film, but I think Zack Snyder delivered with The Watchmen. And I'm sure with this Directors cut of the film I will believe that even more. So I will be out getting a copy of this Directors cut and screaming out The world will look up and shout "Save us!"... And I'll whisper "No."

Here is a short summary of The Watchmen

Someone’s killing our masked super heroes. The year is 1985 and super heroes- The Watchmen- have banded together to respond to the murder of one of their own. They soon uncover a sinister plot that puts all of humanity in grave danger. The Watchmen fight to stop the impending doom only to find themselves a target for annihilation. But, if our super heroes are gone, who will save us? And who watchs The Watchmen?!?

So go out and get yourself a copy of The Watchmen(Director's cut) and just enjoy the ride! I know I will be!
