Take a look to those two new TV spots of Gran Torino, upcoming movie directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Ahney Her and Bee Vang besides Clint Eastwood himself:

Gran Torino TV Spots

There seems to be much more action than what I have first expected in the movie Gran Torino! Walt Kowalski (Clint Eastwood) is as determined as the Dirty Harry!

Keanu Reeves is such an Adonis that when he blinked the Earth Stood Still! Don’t believe me? Then check this new clip of The Day The Earth Stood Still that aired during The Shield Finale:

The Day The Earth Stood Still

The red lift in this new trailer of The Day the Earth Stood Still looks so ugly….

The first Wolverine is maybe not yet out but get ready for Wolverine 2. In a recent interview given to MTV (here) Hugh Jackman, who plays the role Logan aka Wolverine in the upcoming X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie, has talked about the direction a Wolverine sequel may take:

Below a transcript where he talks about what should be done in the Wolverine movie sequel:

I totally agree with Hugh Jackman: the Japan plot sounds damned appealing! I really want this japan story to go through for the Wolverine sequel.

Adoration is an upcoming drama movie directed by Atom Egoyan. The film is starring Rachel Blanchard, Scott Speedman, and Devon Bostick. Adoration is slated for a limited release on May 8, 2009.

The film was first shown in May 2008 at the Cannes Film Festival. Adoration won the Prize of the Ecumenical Jury and was nominated for the Palme d’Or.

Here below the first official trailer of the movie Adoration:

Plot:
“An adolescent, Simon, reinvents his life on the Internet by recreating his life around two historical figures. His story provokes strong reactions throughout the world. Cyberspace is a forum for victims. But is it a place for redemption?”

The plot sounds a bit too intricate to me, but the soundtrack of the movie, if as well chosen as in this trailer of Adoration, could get me into following the kid trying to learn the truth and discover things.

Director Atom Egoyan seems intrigued by the potential uses and abuses of technology. We may see the teenager having video chat sessions: just hope that Director Erdogan does not abuse of this plot gimmick in the movie Adoration.

New in Town is an upcoming romantic comedy movie directed by Jonas Elmer. The film stars Renée Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr.. New In Town should be released on January 30, 2009.

Plot:
“Lucy Hill (Renee Zellweger) is an ambitious, up and coming executive living in Miami. She loves her shoes, she loves her cars and she loves climbing the corporate ladder. When she is offered a temporary assignment in a town in Minnesota – in the middle of nowhere – to restructure a manufacturing plant, she jumps at the opportunity, knowing that a big promotion is close at hand. What begins as a straight forward job assignment becomes a life changing experience as Lucy discovers greater meaning in her life and most unexpectedly, the man of her dreams (Harry Connick, Jr.).”

A sophisticated girl from the city, newly arrived to a small country town, gets in love with a local countrified chap: that’s cliché! And the the plot is set in Minnesota, but the movie was actually filmed in Winnipeg and Selkirk, Canada…

But Renee Zellweger looks so sweet in her role that one can but forgive the flaws of the movie New In Town.

What about you: any interest in New In Town?

Describing a post-apocalyptic future must be trendy: there is a a new independent movie titled White Wall that’s presenting a bleak world in which almost all of Mankind seems to have been wiped out by some mysterious virus following a war. The movie White Wall is directed by James Boss.

Upon seeing the director listed in the cast of his own movie I started to think it was but a low budget sci-fi movie. Fortunately I went to the official site and I must admit that I am now caught in the universe of White Wall. I strongly recommend to visit the official site of White Wall (here).

To convince you, just have a look to this first official teaser trailer of White Wall:

Plot:
“A virus has decimated humanity and left the world in squalor and full of violence. Shawn Kors world is confined to a large white wall and he looks for a way out and a cure to the virus, VXII, until he gets close to the truth.
Set in a wasteland enclosed by a large white wall, the last survivor from a brutal child internment camp reluctantly takes on one final bounty hunting job to protect the idyllic life he has rebuilt.”

Here below two stills from the movie (via Quiet Earth):

The movie looks like an artistic take on a potential post-apocalyptic future. Director James Boss shows a real creativity. If the acting is good enough to translate the universe we have a glimpse of on the official site, White Wall could become a cult movie or at least, be a stepping stone for James Boss’ career as film director.

The movie should be released in 2009. No official date yet though, not even sure it will have a theatrical release, but would be great to see this in a theater.

Director Robert Luketic (legally Blonde) is bringing us a new romantic comedy movie titled The Ugly Truth. It is starring Gerard Butler, Katherine Heigl, Cheryl Hines and Bonnie Somerville. The Ugly Truth movie should be released on April 3, 2009 July 24, 2009.

Here below the first official trailer of The Ugly Truth:

Plot:
“A romantically challenged morning show producer (Heigl) is reluctantly embroiled in a series of outrageous tests by her chauvinistic correspondent (Butler) to prove his theories on relationships and help her find love. His clever ploys, however, lead to an unexpected result.” (Source: IMDb)

Cast:
– Katherine Heigl as the romantically challenged morning show producer;
– Gerard Butler as her chauvinistic correspondent;
– Cheryl Hines as a co-anchor of the morning show.

What about you like it on top? Right, some easy jokes in The Ugly Truth, but one should not refrain from laughing! Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler are a good match. The Ugly Truth is a nice movie to start Springs before entering in the summer of love!
;-P

In case you still don’t know: Battlestar Galactica is a reboot by Producer Ron Moore of a sci-fi series from the 1970’s: where humans aboard spaceships try to survive to relentless attacks by robots called cylons. That’s probably the best sci fi TV show of the last two decade!

Here below a trailer of Battlestar Galactica Season 4 Part 2:

BSG Season 4 Part 2 Trailer

Part 2 of Season 4 will be the last episodes of Battlestar Galactica: the final cylon will be revealed!

Olivier Megaton is the third director to work on a transporter movie after Corey Yuen for the first one and Louis Leterrier the second one. Megaton is actually a nickname, his real being Olivier Fontana. He was called megaton because he was born on the same day as the 20th Hiroshima Commemoration (August 6, 1965).

The nickname must influence his artistic vision: Transporter 3 is gonna blow us way for real! Just check this new Transporter 3 clip featuring an amazing car stunt:

Any idea about the soundtrack of this Transporter 3 trailer?

A new trailer of the upcoming Star Trek movie has been released. Almost the same as the previous one, but with a glimpse of Leonard Nimoy as old Spock at the end!

Josh Flitter who’s playing the son of Ace Ventura (formerly played by Jim Carrey) won’t see a theatrical release of Ace Ventura 3 in which he has the lead role. The production company has indeed gotten cold feet and has decided that a direct-to-DVD release in March would be better.

Anyway, thanks to Cinematical, via Ramasscreen, we finally have a trailer of Ace Ventura Jr Pet Detective, aka Ace Ventura 3:

Ace ventura 3 Movie Trailer

I must admit that the movie does not look that much edifying… but hey, one should not refuse to laugh, even if it’s laughing at the movie itself! So if you get a free DVD of the movie then you should watch Ace ventura 3: the dog in the movie is really worth a look!

;-P

A preview clip of Notorious, upcoming biographic movie based on the life of Notorious aka the B.I.G. and directed by George Tillman Jr, has been released:

Notorious Movie

Thanks to music Christopher Wallace, aka The Notorious B.I.G., went from rags to riches. But his ascension was not without drawing envy. And he caught back by the dangerous world he went from: in 1997, a still-unsolved drive-by shooting took the 24-year-old’s life outside a Los Angeles party celebrating the Soul Train Music Awards given by Vibe magazine and Qwest Records…

The movie Notorious tries to see who the rapper really was, wants to go beyond the controversy.
