The promotion of Invictus is kicking into high gear: TV spots have started to air for the latest movie directed by Clint Eastwood. Here the first two TV clips of Invictus:

Invictus – President Nelson Mandela takes office in Pretoria.

Invictus – He wants us to win the world cup.
Plot:
“After the fall of apartheid, South Africa was host to the 1995 Rugby World Cup. Mandela was in his first term as South African president, and he used the event as a way to end decades of mistrust and hatred between whites and blacks.”

The movie Invictus is starring Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar, the captain of South Africa’s rugby team and Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela, the then newly elected President of South Africa. A quite well selected cast:

Nelson Mandela – Morgan Freeman

Francois Pienaar – Matt Damon

There is a striking resemblance!

The movie Invictus will be released this December.

Here’s the movie trailer of the Blind Side, an upcoming comedy movie directed by John Lee Hancock and starring Sandra Bullock, Tim McGraw, Quinton Aaron, and Kathy Bates:

THE BLIND SIDE
Plot:
“A poor, undereducated 344-pound African-American teenager in Memphis, whose father was murdered and whose mother was a crack addict, is shuffled through the public school system, despite his low grade point average and absenteeism. But his tremendous size and quickness attracts the interest of a wealthy white couple who take him in and groom him both athletically and academically to become one of the top high school football prospects in the country.”

The Blind Side movie is based on the true story of football player Michael Oher, whose incredible track was traced in Michael Lewis’ book “The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game”.

The Blind Side will hit theaters on November 20, 2009.

ABC has finally released the trailer of Lost Season 6! Unfortunately, no footage from the new season in this trailer… Anyway, here it is:

Lost Season 6 Trailer
I can barely wait for the season 6 of Lost.For God’s sake, I hope this final season Lost won’t use any sh*tty trick plot involving God and religion…
:/

There’s a new movie trailer of The Road, the upcoming post-apocalyptic movie directed by John Hillcoat based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy. You may watch this second trailer of The road below:

The Road Trailer

THE ROAD
Plot:
“An unnamed father (Mortensen) and his young son (Smit-McPhee) struggle to survive after an unspecified apocalypse and make their way toward the coast for possible food, shelter, safety, or to potentially find other survivors of the cataclysmic events. Along the way, they encounter grave struggles and hardships across the barren landscapes, with scarce shelter and resources available to them, and having to avoid bands of cannibals and other desperate gangs looking to pillage valuables and food. Various flashback sequences occur where the Man remembers events prior to the catastrophe, many involving his deceased wife, who has a much more expanded role in the film than in the original book.”

Cast:
– Viggo Mortensen as the Man.
– Kodi Smit-McPhee as the Boy.
– Charlize Theron as the Wife, who appears in flashback.
– Michael K. Williams as a thief.
– Guy Pearce as a father wandering with his family.
– Robert Duvall as an old, dying man.

I read the book, and even if I feel like the world was darker in Cormac McCarthy’s book, I still think that John Hillcoat’s The Road is a faithful adaptation. I’m quite impatient to watch The Road!
:)

Watch this third clip of The Fourth Kind featuring Milla Jovovich in some hypnosis session:

The Fourth Kind – Hypnosis
I thought The Fourth Kind, the upcoming sci-fi thriller starring Milla Jovovich, was going to be creepy, but it’s actually more than that: it’s gonna be disturbing!

J.J. Abrams had to cut a few scenes from his take on Star Trek. Fortunately we will be able to watch those scenes when the film will be released on DVD and Blu-Ray on November 17, 2009. Meanwhile, just to tease us, here’s the deleted scene of Star Trek in which Nero is interrogated by a masked Klingon:

Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) will probably have to face the Klingon Empire in Star Trek 2, the Star Trek movie sequel set for a release in 2011.

At long last but not least, the new trailer of Avatar is officially released online:

Avatar Movie Trailer

AVATAR
Plot:
“Avatar is the story of an ex-Marine on the planet Pandora who, as an Avatar – a human mind in an alien body – finds himself in a desperate fight for his survival and that of the indigenous beings called Na’vi.”

Gorgeous Avatar trailer isn’t it? The movie Avatar will hit theaters on December 18, 2009, be ready for an epic journey in the quixotic world of Pandora!
:)

A second preview clip of The Fourth Kind is available:

The Fourth Kind – They took my baby!
So aliens are beaming up babies to their flying saucers? Forget the bogeyman, should rather fear the aliens who are going to abduct our kids!

A first preview clip of the Box, Richard Kelly’s upcoming thriller movie, has been released:

The Box – Wake up! Jesus Christ!
Plot:
“A suburban couple with a young child receive a simple wooden box as a gift. A mysterious stranger delivers the message that the box could offer its owner $1 million with the press of a single button, however pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another unknown human being somewhere in the world; a true test of morality.”

Did that girl pass away because someone pressed the red button? The Box is going to be a creepy movie!

Green Zone is an upcoming movie directed by Paul Greengrass and starring Matt Damon, Amy Ryan, Greg Kinnear, Antoni Corone and Nicoye Banks. It’s is a war thriller movie taking place in the Green Zone in Iraq. Let’s watch the movie trailer of Green Zone:

GREEN ZONE
Plot:
“During the U.S.-led occupation of Baghdad in 2003, Chief Warrant Officer Roy Miller (Damon) and his team of Army inspectors were dispatched to find weapons of mass destruction believed to be stockpiled in the Iraqi desert. Rocketing from one booby-trapped and treacherous site to the next, the men search for deadly chemical agents but stumble instead upon an elaborate cover-up that inverts the purpose of their mission.

Spun by operatives with intersecting agendas, Miller must hunt through covert and faulty intelligence hidden on foreign soil for answers that will either clear a rogue regime or escalate a war in an unstable region. And at this blistering time and in this combustible place, he will find the most elusive weapon of all is the truth.”

Getting a bit bored of all those films taking place in Iraq… I’ll go watch the movie Green Zone when it’s released in March 2010, but only because it is starring Matt Damon…
:/

A new version of the trailer of Shutter Island has popped up online. It is not much that much different from the previous one, just a few new shots here an there:

Shutter Island Trailer

Shutter Island
Plot:
“Nothing at Ashecliffe Hospital is what it seems. And neither is Teddy Daniels. Is he there to find a missing patient? Or has he been sent to look into rumors of Ashecliffe’s radical approach to psychiatry? The closer Teddy and Chuck get to the truth, the more elusive it becomes, and the more they begin to believe that they may never leave Shutter Island. Because someone is trying to drive them insane…”

Nobody is really protected against insanity, it could take over at any time! But fortunately our brain manages to keep a balance most of the time.
:)
