Tony Scott dies on my birthday!

Last Weekends Box Office Results:
  1. The Expendables 2
  2. The Bourne Legacy
  3. ParaNorman
  4. The Campaign
  5. Sparkle
The Movie news for the week:
  • Nicolas Cage is attached to The Expendables 3. Harrison Ford and Clint Eastwood are in talks for the sequel to last weekends box office hit.
  • The History of LEGO:
  • Robert Downey Jr. gets hurt while filming Iron Man 3 in Wilmington, NC. He sustained a minor ankle injury while filming a stunt for the movie. The production has been halted while he recovers. I knew after I saw the one set photo of the wire stunt that they were doing that someone was going to get hurt while filming. I just hate that it was RDJ.
  • John Goodman is in talks to play the role as the villain to The Wolf pack in The Hangover: Part 3. If you havent been following the news coming from The Hangover: Part 3, you might have missed some good plot points. The Wolfpack might be heading to Tijuana and might be trying to break Alan, Zach Galifianakis's characeter, out of a mental institution. Heather Graham , Mike Tyson, and Ken Jeong are all set to return for the film.
  • James Gunn is in talks with Marvel Studios to direct Guardians of the Galaxy. I say, why not. He is an amazing director with some notable movies under his belt. He has done both Scooby Doo movies, Super, the remake of Dawn of the Dead, and also did a cult hit video game, Lollypop Chainsaw. I hope this happens so I can throw my money at it!
The New trailers for this week:
  • Raiders of the Lost Ark IMAX Trailer:
  • Robot Chicken DC Comics Special Trailer:
  • End of Watch Red Band trailer:
  • Seven Psychopaths:

    TMNT fans tell Michael Bay to quit his Job!

    The Weekend Box Office Results:
    1. Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted
    2. Prometheus
    3. Rock of Ages
    4. Snow White and the Huntsman
    5. That's My Boy
    The Movie news for the Week:
    • Star Trek 2 is being confirmed to be released in IMAX 3D. The IMAX part excites me, but the 3D part doesn't. I wish more directors had the same views as Christopher Nolan. I guess they are only worried about making the money.
    • Here is a close up of the Batwing from The Dark Knight Rises:
      Detailed Look At the Batwing in The Dark Knight Rises
      As the picture says, it is outfited with:
      • Rocket launchers
      • Flood lights (only slightly less awesome than rocket launchers)
      • Dual machine guns
      • And an EMP cannon
    • Michael Bay's adaption of the Teenage MUTANT Ninja Turtles story is being delayed until May of 2014. Did you hear that? Oh, it was just a big sigh from the nerd community. When Michael Bay announced the turtles would become extraterrestrials, there was a big out cry from the nerd community. Michael Bay told them to chill out and wait until they hear more about the story. I would like to think that this delay was because of that lash out.
    The recently released trailer:
    • Django Unchained International Trailer:

    • Sinister:
    • Re5ident Evil: Retribution:
    • Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Music Trailer:

      • To start of the sales of The Dark Knight Rises Advanced tickets, here is something you might like:
      • Damon Lindelof, the guy who wrote the Prometheus Script, is working on the rewrite of the World War Z film. This is weird since the movie is filming and re shooting. Looks like the whole movie is going to be redone which will take some time. As of right now they still have the movie set to release on June 21st, 2013.
      • Christopher Nolan continues to say that The Dark Knight Rises will be his last Batman Film. This is a sad thing to hear, but he has done enough for DC and it is time for him to move on. He has established a huge fan base and I am sure he will continue to be a good director. It is also time for him to get back to his films using his original ideas. I love him as a director and I can't wait to see what he has in store for us in his next films. 
      New Trailers and featurettes of upcoming films:
      • The Amazing Spider-Man featurette focusing on Rhys Ifans as Dr. Curt Connors/The Lizard:

      • Wreck-It Ralph:
      • Django Unchained:

      • Flight:

      • 360:

      IMAX is better then 3D!!

      As always, the Weekend Box Office Results:
      1. Think Like a Man
      2. The Lucky One
      3. The Hunger Games
      4. Chimpanzee
      5. The Three Stooges
      On to the Movie news for the week:
      • There is a behind the scenes clip of The Avengers that is almost 20 minutes long. There is no dialog in the clip to keep from spoiling the movie. There is however some well chosen background music. Check out the clip below:

      • There is a set photo from Star Trek 2 that hit the web. It shows Spock in his Volcanic suit and nothing more then that. Check it out below:
        Zachary Quinto Dons Spock's 'Volcano Suit' on the 'Star Trek 2' Set
      • The final posters for The Amazing Spider-Man have been released. They add a darker tone to the highly anticipated reboot. Check them out below:
        Final 'The Amazing Spider-Man' Movie Poster The Amazing Spider-Man City Poster
      • Universal Pictures has announced that they will be working on a big screen reboot of The Rockford Files. There has not been many details released, but they have signed Vince Vaughn to play Jim Rockford. This role was originally played by James Garner in the TV Show. This could be a very good move or a very bad movie. It all depends on how Universal and Vince approach the movie.
      • There have been more behind the scenes images released of The Lone Ranger. They show Armie Hammer and Johnny Depp meeting with Navajo leaders. Check out the images below:
        Navajo Nation Vice President Rex Lee Jim, Johnny Depp shakes hands with Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly (Lone Ranger) Navajo Nation Vice President Rex Lee Jim, Armie Hammer and Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly (Lone Ranger)
      • If you are planning to go see The Avengers Opening Night like I am, you are going to get a special treat. Warner Brothers has announced that they will be releasing a new trailer for The Dark Knight Rises before The Avengers. Thats a big announcement since The Dark Knight Rises might end up being the Movie of the Year and hopefully the Greatest Movie of All Time! I will make sure to post the trailer on the following Monday for the movie blog.
      • Guy Pearce has joined Iron Man 3 as Aldrich Killian, one of the creator of the Extremis technology. When the military pulls the funding for his project, Killian turns into a villain. The movie also has Ben Kingsley playing an undetermined villain. My guess still stand that he will play the Mandarin, even though Marvel still denies this.
      • Another set photo from Les Misérables have been released. This one shows Anne Hathaway & Hugh Jackman and it looks like they are singing:
        Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman in Costume for 'Les Misérables'
      • Christopher Nolan says that over an hour of The Dark Knight Rises was shot in IMAX format. What does this mean you ask? This means that the movie will look better, feel real, and be a better movie. The IMAX shots in this movie are double the ones in The Dark Knight and Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. I don't know about you, but I can't for the movie to hit theaters.

      Bruce Willis is really hard to kill!

      As always, the Weekend Box Office Results:.
      1. Act of Valor
      2. Tyler Perry's Good Deeds
      3. Journey 2: The Mysterious Island
      4. Safe House
      5. The Vow
      Now the Movie news for the week:
      • William Fichtner, The Dark Knight and Prison Break, has replaced Dwight Yoakam as a villain in  Gore Verbinski’s The Lone Ranger.  Dwight Yoakam had to back out of the film due to  scheduling issues.  William Fichtner is used to playing a villain type role and I think this could be a good role for him.
      • The role of John McClane Jr. has been cast for A Good Day to Die Hard, aka Die Hard 5.  Jai Courtney, an Austrailan Actor from the show  Spartacus: Blood and Sand, will be playing the role of Bruce Willis's son. I don't if they are bringing him in to take over as lead or just to make another sequel.
        Here is a picture from a screen test with father and son:
        Jai Courtney and Bruce Willis in A Good Day to Die Hard
      • Set photos from Start Trek 2 have been released and they show little of the upcoming sequel to the 2009 Blockbuster. The only thing that I thought was cool was Spock using the Vulcan Death Grip on  Benedict Cumberbatch.
        Check out the picture below:
        Benedict Cumberbatch and Zachary Quinto on the Star Trek 2 set
        Also J.J. Abrams has confirmed that Star Trek 2 is being filmed in IMAX format. Personally, id rather see a film in IMAX format instead of 3D. 3D is not worth the extra money (or migraine.) I have seen only one film in IMAX format and that was Inception. It was worth the extra money and to me made the film look better. I am a huge Star Wars Fan, but I dont plan on seeing any of the films in 3D, except for the first 20 minutes of Episode 3 and and the Original Trilogy.
      • The Hunger Games is beating Twilight Eclipse in the sense of advanced ticket sells and it still has a month to go. I am not a huge fan of The Hunger Games, but I may end up seeing it. Especially if this movie can bet the crap out of any Twilight record!

      • Rumor: Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson might play Hercules in Brett Ratner's Hercules movie.
      • A new trailer for The Avengers is to be released online on  February 29th. I will make sure to find it and post it as soon as I watch it.
