There is a brand new poster for Youth in Revolt, the upcoming comedy movie directed by Miguel Arteta that was pushed back to January 8, 2010:
YOUTH IN REVOLT
He wasn’t a rebel until he found his cause.
The revolution begins January 8, 2010!
Plot:
“While his trailer trash parents teeter on the edge of divorce, 14-year-old Nick (Michael Cera) sets his sights on dream girl Sheeni Saunders (Portia Doubleday), hoping that she’ll be the one to take away his virginity.”
Don’t be mistaken by the short premise above: Youth in Revolt is gonna be a movie full of wit and real humor!
:)
Based on the Pulitzer prize winning novel by Cormac McCarthy
Author of “No Country Fo Old Men”
Plot:
“A father and his son walk alone through a post-apocalyptic America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape and it’s cold enough to crack stones. Hoping to escape the endless winter, they head south towards the coast, not knowing what awaits them there. Along the way they encounter refugees, organized militants, and must avoid gangs of lawless killers. With the exception of a pistol with 2 bullets, the clothes on their back and a cart of scavenged food, they have nothing. All alone, the boys must struggle to survive in a world no longer capable of sustaining life.”
Nice poster, but too many colors to be faithful to the bleak vision of Cormac McCarthy… But I guess it’s easier to sell than a dark screen filled with smog.
Muay Thai expert Tony Jaa is working on a third installment of the successful Ong Bak franchise. Tony is both acting and directing, as he did in the previous Ong Bak sequel.
Update – here’ s the first Ong bak 3 movie trailer:
ONG BAK 3
Ong Bak 3 is said to be a direct sequel to the second movie, so it should follow the story and period setting of Ong Bak 2. Currently they’re shooting in Thailand, and Sahamongkol Film expects to release Ong Bak 3 in December 2009 in their home country.
Here below a first teaser poster of Ong Bak 3:

The end of the second movie was a bit disappointing, hope they will make it better in Ong Bak 3!
Update we now have more Ong Bak 3 plot details:
Plot:
“The legend of Ong Bak 3 begins after Tien (Tony Jaa) has lost his fighting skills and his beloved step-father at the Garuda’s Wing cliff from the raid led by Jom Rachan (Saranyu Wonggrajang). Tien is brought back to life with the help from Pim (Primrata Dechudom) as well as Mhen (Petchai Wongkamlao) and the Kana Khone villagers. Deep into the meditation taught by Phra Bua (Nirutti Sirijanya), Tien finally is able to achieve ‘Nathayut’. His talents are put to the test again when his rivals including the Golden-Armored King’s Guard (Supakorn ‘Tok’ Kijusuwan), the mysterious killers in black, and Bhuti Sangkha (Dan Chupong) return for the final massive showdown.”
A final massive showdown in the movie On Bak 3: bring it on! But please do let a door open for Ong Bak 4!

Here below the first poster of Everybody’s Fine, an upcoming comedy movie starring Robert De Niro as the father of a family, and Kate Beckinsale, Drew Barrymore and Sam Rockwell as his grown-up children:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
Plot:
“A widower realizes that his deceased wife was his only connection to his children. He decides on a whim to take a road trip to reconnect with each of his grown kids, discovering that their lives are far from perfect.”
Just a feel-good movie, but with Robert de Niro in the lead role I’m willing to give a try to Everybody’s Fine.
;-P
Comments Off on Alice in Wonderland International Poster
An international poster of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland has shown up online:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
Plot:
“19-year-old Alice returns to the whimsical world she first encountered as a young girl, reuniting with her childhood friends: the White Rabbit, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the Dormouse, the Caterpillar, the Cheshire Cat, and of course, the Mad Hatter”
Tim Burton will be the most psychedelic version ever of Alice in Wonderland!

Comments Off on Percy Jackson and the Olympians The Lightning Thief
Three great promo posters of ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief’ have been unveiled:
(Click on a poster to enlarge it.)
From left to right:
– Grover Underwood the satyr: his father disappeared searching for Pan
– Percy Jackson the demi-god: son of Poseidon and Sally Jackson
– Annabeth Chase the demi-god: daughter of Athena and Dr. Frederick Chase
The Lightning Thief is the first movie of a potential Percy Jackson franchise based on the series of adventure and fantasy books authored by Rick Riordan. Percy Jackson is a good excuse to rediscover Greek mythology.

Take a look to the movie poster of It’s Complicated, an upcoming comedy starring Alec Baldwin, Meryl Streep and Steve Martin:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
Plot:
“Jane (Meryl Streep) is a self-reliant divorcee who owns a successful bakery in Santa Barbara. After ten years of separation and 3 grown children, she finally achieves a good relationship with her ex-husband Jake (Alec Baldwin), a successful attorney who has remarried the much-younger Agness (Lake Bell). Jane and Jake meet when out of town and attending the college graduation of their son. A dinner together develops into an affair, making Jane ‘the other woman’. Complicating matters is Adam (Steve Martin), an architect hired to remodel Jane’s kitchen, who is himself healing from a divorce of his own, and who has begun to fall in love with Jane. He realizes he is now part of a very strange love triangle.”
Wisdom may come with maturity, but when love gets involved, it’s never easy and things to be complicated.
The movie It’s Complicated is written and directed by Nancy Meyers (who once brought us the romantic comedy movie The Holidday, film starring Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, Jude Law and Jack Black).
:)
Here’s the movie poster of Spy Next Door, an upcoming action comedy starring the funny Jackie Chan:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
THE SPY NEXT DOOR
Spying is easy, babysitting is hard.
Plot:
“While babysitting his neighbor’s children, a mild-mannered guy winds up having to fight off secret agents after one of the kids inadvertently downloads a secret code.”
The Spy Next Door looks like a fun movie to go watch with kids.
:)
Take a look to the official movie poster of Edge of Darkness, an upcoming thriller movie directed by Martin Campbell and starring Mel Gibson:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
Plot:
“As homicide detective Thomas Craven investigates the death of his activist daughter, he uncovers not only her secret life, but a corporate cover-up and government collusion that attracts an agent tasked with cleaning up the evidence.”
When I see Mel Gibson playing the role of a cop, I cant but think of Lethal Weapon. Unfortunately the movie Edge of Darkness is unlikely to make me laugh…
:(
Plot:
“The story follows what happens when God loses faith in humanity and sends his legion of angels to wipe out the human race for the second time. Mankind’s only hope lies in a group of misfits holed up in a diner in the desert who are aided by the archangel Michael”
If God is trying to wipe out Mankind, does Mankind have to embrace atheism to kill God?
