Prepare for a series of new posters and trailers with the opening of the New York Comic Con. Thanks to I09 we may already have a look to a teaser poster of the Surrogates, an upcoming science-fiction movie directed by Jonathan Mostow and starring Bruce Willis:
Surrogates is set in a world in which humans live in isolation, interacting though surrogates, remote-controlled artificial bodies. A cop (Bruce Willis) investigates a series of surrogates murders. It forces him to bring his human form out of isolation, and doing so he will be able to unravel a conspiracy behind the crimes.
You may work on your own surrogate if you go to the site indicated on the poster (here).
A featurette taking footage from the movie trailer of Surrogates is now available:
In the movie Angels and Demons, upcoming prequel to the Da Vinci Code, Professor Langdon (Tom Hanks) has to face a mysterious order called the Illuminati who is threathening to destroy the Vatican. Take a look to those preview clips of Angels and Demons:
20th Century Fox’s has finally released online the full new trailer Dragonball Evolution, the upcoming movie adaptation of the famous manga created by Akira Toriyama:
The music isn’t too bad. I find hard to get enthusiast about this adaptation though: I don’t recognize the spirit of the manga in this, it kinda looks like some cheap colorful fireworks… I won’t boycott the movie at the end, but I’m sad when I think how much better this adaptation could have been if it was more faithful to the original material…
Dragonball Evolution is written and directed by James Wong and is starring Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Jamie Chung, Emmy Rossum, Eriko Tamura, Joon Park and Chow Yun-Fat. It will be released in April 2008.

Fox isn’t that deaf after all. The latest Dragonball TV spot that premiered in Japan shows they’ve been working hard to save their investment from an epic fail: some of the details that fans pointed out in the past have been fixed. Example: Piccolo is definitely green by now.
This new clip looks much better than what we’ve been served before. But there is still a feel of cheapness and a smallvillesque impression that hinder me from accepting this film as the movie adaptation of Dragonball….
I don’t deny it will be entertaining, but it won’t be much more… A real Dragonball movie would have blown us alll away! But I bet a reboot will be done in the next five or ten years. Hope keeps alive, doesn’t it?

Comments Off on Monsters vs Aliens Crossover Commercial for SoBe
Ray Lewis, Matt Light, and Justin Tuck dance with the SoBe Lizards and the cast of Monsters vs. Aliens are partying together in a crossover Superbowl commercial for a 0-calorie beverage:
The movie trailer of The Year One, upcoming by comedy directed by Harold Ramis starring Jack Black and Michael Cera, has aired during the Super Bowl:
The Year One is a comedy set in a biblical environment. The whole thing has a Monti Python feel according to Jack black.
“Year One is a biblical comedy. It’s about the old testament. I’m just a dude wandering through biblical times. I’m not a famous character that you would have heard of before. Me and Michael Cera are just sort of wandering through, and you get to see all these old stories from the Torah, told through Agnostic, sort of, eyes.”
Jack Black
Some religious bigots may get pissed off by The Year One, but Holy Crap, with Jack Black in the cast, I bet the movie is going to be damn funny.

MONSTERSvsALIENS
A monstrous 3D event!

Director J.J. Abrams has done a hell of a job with Star Trek!
This new Star Trek is a chronicle of the early days of James T. Kirk and his fellow USS Enterprise crew members. But there is a twist: the Romulan Nero (Eric Bana) went back in time to tweak a few events to get rid of Kirk in his young age…
:)
Plot:
“The story of Up follows Carl Fredricksen (Ed Asner) who spent his entire life dreaming of exploring the globe and experiencing life to its fullest. But one day, Carl finds himself to be 78-years old and his life has seemingly passed him by, until he befriends a chubby 8-year old Wilderness Explorer named Russell. The two opposites match up for thrilling adventures as they encounter wild terrain, unexpected villains, and all the terrifying creatures that wait in the jungle.”
I doubt that the movie UP will eprform as well Wall-E but it still looks good.

Director Harold Ramis is digging in Biblical times to bring us The Year One, a surprising comedy movie. The film is starring Jack Black and Michael Cera.
Here below a preview clip of the Year One:
Plot: “When a couple of lazy hunter-gatherers (Black and Cera) are banished from their primitive village, they set off on an epic journey through the ancient world.” (Source: IMDb)
Cast:
– Jack Black as Zed
– Michael Cera as Oh
– Olivia Wilde as Princess Inanna
– June Raphael as Maya
– David Cross as Cain
– Paul Rudd as Abel
– Juno Temple as Eema
– Oliver Platt as High Priest
– Christopher Mintz-Plasse as Isaac
– Hank Azaria as Abraham
Black warned viewers expecting a comedy along the lines of Ghostbusters or Knocked Up, that the style of the film is much more along the lines of the Monty Python movies. The preview clip of Year One confirms indeed that Year One is a combination of Jack Black’s own comedy skills with some Monti Python influence (which plays with absurdity).
