Disney Pixar has coined a new pun by releasing some UPisodes (contraction of UP and episode). Those clips of UP are promotional material and aren’t clips from the movie. But still they are funny to watch:

New upisodes will be released and we’ll list them here.

I think there is a conspiracy at Disney Pixar for us to believe that the future of mankind will be a few sizes larger: in Wall-E the remnants of Mankind were all like chubby worms, and it looks like that Russel is the missing link…
;-P

The new international trailer of Crank 2 High Voltage, the movie sequel to Crank with Jason Statham, is definitely a must-see! Much better than the MPAA-approved US version.

Enjoy below the latest Crank 2 trailer:

Crank 2 International Trailer

It must be much more fun for Jason Statham to work on a movie like Crank 2 than working on Transporter movies!

Crank 2 is scheduled for a release on April 17, 2009.

Christian Bale has reached the status the badass actor, and I bet he’s gonna keep it for a long time. One more proof of this in this behind-the-scenes clip of Terminator Salvation:

Terminator 4 Behind The Scenes

Christian Bale is so dynamic that Director McG has to calm him down:

Still no confirmation of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s cameo in Terminator 4. According to the rumor, it would not even be a real cameo but some computerized avatar, well that would be fine too I guess!
:)

I may have compared the upcoming DB Evolution movie to Smallville, even talking about a “smallvillesque” that would have cursed the movie from the start… Well that was not fair for Smallville: I should compare this Dragonball movie to the Power Rangers too!

Just check those disappointing preview clips of Dragonball the movie:

Dragonball Preview

Let’s try to be positive though: I’m definitely a fan of Eriko Tamura who plays teh role of Mai ( who is a chief enforcer of Piccolo’s and a shapeshifter) from now on! Can’t believe I didn’t notice that she is so gorgeous till now!

Here a promotional picture featuring Mai and Piccolo (who went green at long last):
(Click on the picture to enlarge it.)

I’m fan of Eriko Tamura but even her can’t save this soulless adaptation of the manga Dragonball! So it’s a relief that the movie won’t be much longer than 80 minutes.
:-P

A full-length trailer of UP, the new PIXAR movie for 2009, has been released:

UP Movie Trailer

This new UP trailer is introducing a new character, Charles Muntz, the villain of this animated movie:

Charles Muntz is an adventurer that Carl and his wife admired as children, but looks like the adventurer is that much friendly in his very old age…

The voice of Charles Muntz is done by Christopher Plummer. Director Pete Docter compared Muntz to a mix of Charles Lindbergh and Howard Hughes.

The latest Wolverine trailer will definitely convince you that the movie will be awesome if you were not yet a believer:

Wolverine Movie Trailer

Hugh Jackman had a double hat on this new Wolverine movie: he was both lead actor and producer. So, it was an ideal occasion for him to put forward his vision of Wolverine which is much closer to the comic canon than what we may have seen in the previous X-Men movies:

Acclaimed actress Dakota Fanning has officially joined the cast and will play the Volturi Jane in the Twilight Saga New Moon. The rumor was online since a long, but nice to have an official confirmation from Summit Entertainment.

In the universe of Twilight, the Volturi are like law enforcers among the Vampires: they are much respected, end even feared because of their mind control tricks

So Dakota Fanning will play the role of Jane, one of the prize members of the Volturi Guard and one of their highest ranking guards, a sadistic person and a pet of Aro a former Volturi leader. She seems rather bitter and easily justifies inflicting pain on anyone with her power. Jane has a twin brother named Alec and they both reside in Volterra, Italy.

Here below an interview of Dakota Fanning about her role as Jane (it was made just before she was confirmed for the role):

Good that they chose Dakota Fanning: I think that this young-but-well-experienced actress is a nice addition to the cast of this New Moon movie.

Here’s a first look at Dakota Fanning as Jane:

A new picture:

And here’s an interview of Dakota Fanning about her role as Jane in Twilight New Moon:

Johnny Depp’s career may have started with the role of a cop in 21 Jump Street, but it seems that ditch this early character for more villainous roles afterward: being a pirate in POTC, a serial killer in Sweeney Todd. He confirms his interest for dark characters in Public Enemies in which he plays the role of John Dillinger the gangster from the 1930s. Here below the first official trailer of Public Enemies:

Public Enemies Movie Trailer

Christian Bale on the other hand sticks to to the lawful side with roles like Batman, John Connor in Terminator, and FBI Agent Purvis in Public Enemies.

That’s probably why Johnny Depp is way better than Christian Bale!

The upcoming movie Harry Potter 6 will unveil the origins of Lord Voldemort, we will learn how he fell for the dark side. The flashback will be introduced to Harry potter thanks to Dumbledore’s memory capsules. Here below the latest trailer of Harry Potter and the half Blood Prince:

Harry Potter Half Blood Prince Movie Trailer

The production team behind Harry Potter does not mind some nepotism: Hero Fiennes-Tiffin who plays the role of Tom Riddle, the child who becomes Lord Voldemort, is actually the 10-year-old nephew of Ralph Fiennes, who played the adult Voldemort in previous Harry Potter movies.
:)

The new trailer of Terminator gives a nice overview of things to come in this fourth installment of the Terminator movie series:

J.J. Abrams is bringing us a mind blowing Star Trek movie.Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto have enlisted in Starfleet respectively as James T. Kirk and Spock the Vulcan. Here below the latest Star Trek trailer released by Paramount Pictures:

Star Trek Movie Trailer

In the role of the main villain of this new Star Trek movie we have Nero (Eric Bana) the Romulan who time-traveled to tweak History before Kirk rises to fame.

The latest batch of preview clips of the Watchmen movie is rather mind blowing, literally. Especially the first two clips, featuring Jon Osterman (Billy Crudup) and his alter-ego the super vigilante Dr. Manhattan:
