Summit Entertainment has unveiled three new posters of Twilight New Moon, aka Twilight 2:

New Moon Final Poster

(Click on a poster to enlarge it.)

Plot:
“Bella Swan is devastated by the abrupt departure of her vampire love, Edward Cullen, but her spirit is rekindled by her growing friendship with Jacob Black. Suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of the werewolves, ancestral enemies of the vampires, and finds her loyalties tested.”

The is no denying that quality has improved by a lot with this new opus of the Twilight Saga.: Lionsgate is not just aiming at compounding on the success of the previous movie, they want the movie Twilight New Moon to be a blockbuster by its own.

Stephenie Meyer must be really proud of this latest movie adaptation of New Moon.
:)

This new movie trailer of A Christmas Carol, the upcoming movie directed by Robert Zemeckis, is like a crazy ride:

A CHRISTMAS CAROL
I can but feel compelled to go watch A Christmas Carol in a 3D-enabled theater after watching this trailer: it’s gonna deliver a hell of a 3D experience in such a theater!
:)

Here’s a first look at the are the unobtainium, the mineral mankind is looking for on the planet Pandora in the movie Avatar directed by James Cameron:

Unobtainium- Avatar Movie

Unobtainium allows superconductivity any loss at room temperature. Superconductivity means that electricity can flow through this material without resistance, no resistance means not loss, so the system becomes ultra efficient: that’s what our grid needs!

Scientists can recreate superconductivity at very low temperatures, but that’s not worth it so far because too much it requires energy is put to reach those low temperatures. At least for now, Superconductivity at room temperature is like a Holy Grail. So you bet that if we were to find a material allowing superconductivity at room temperature we would rush to mine it, even if we would have to get rid of a few aggressive stingy local aliens.
;-P

A first Agora clip has surfaced online, it’s in Spanish, but still worth a look:

Agora – Hypathia in front of the council
Hypathia must have had a strong personality! Feminists may complain about glass ceiling nowadays, but it was much worse in the past…
:)

A few not-so-exciting pictures of Daybreakers, the sci-fi Vampire movie directed by the Spirieg Brothers, have been released by Lionsgate:

Plot:
“In 2019, a plague transforms the world’s population into vampires. With fewer humans to provide blood, the vampires seek to farm the remaining humans and to find a way to continue their existence. A secret team of vampires uncover a way that would rescue the human race.”

Those pictures of Daybreakers don’t tell much, better to watch the trailer of Daybreakers again to have a better understanding of what to expect!
;-P

Samuel Bayer is bringing us a remake of A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Jackie Earle Haley got the lead role as Freddy Krueger. Here’s the movie trailer of A Nightmare on Elm Street:

NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET
Plot:
“A re-imagining of the horror icon Freddy Krueger, a serial-killer who wields a glove with four blades embedded in the fingers and kills people in their dreams, resulting in their real death in reality.”

I like the origin story concept. And that creepy song in the background I hope it will be on the soundtrack of A Nightmare on Elm Street!
:)

Here’s a TV spot of Whip It, the upcoming comedy movie directed by Drew Barrymore and starring Ellen Page:

Plot:
“In Bodeen, Texas, an indie-rock loving misfit finds a way of dealing with her small-town misery after she discovers a roller derby league in nearby Austin.”

The movie Whip It hits theaters on October 2, that’s next week!

A spin-off Venom movie is under development! Scriptwriters Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese have been working on the screenplay of the film

Venom Trailer

Paul Wernick told to Sci-Fi wire:

“We’ve written two drafts of Venom, and the studio has it, and they’re pushing forward in whatever ways they push forward.”

Scriptwriter Paul Wernick

No word about the story would be linked to Spiderman 3 or Spiderman 4…

Well I don’t mind a supervillain movie: after all there is need for a balance of powers! Otherwise our superheroes would be useless! Let’s they will put the Venom movie in production soon!
:)

Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are teaming up in The Other Guys, an upcoming action comedy movie about two second-tier loser cops who grumble about being in the shadow of two other super cops played by Dwayne Johnson The Rock and Samuel L Jackson. Our cops are of course facing a villain, played by Steve Coogan. Eva Mendes and Michael Keaton are also attached to the cast. The film is directed by Adam McKay. The Other Guys movie will be released on August 6, 2010.

Here below a first look at Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg in The Other Guys:

Land of the Lost didn’t exactly save Will Ferrell’s career, but The Other Guys could be a winner for him: the film can boast a great cast, so I believe there is hope for the Other Guys!
:)

We just spotted a first preview clip of A Christmas Carol, the upcoming CGI animated movie directed by Robert Zemeckis:

The old Scrooge is gonna be haunted by three spirits! And the best part of it is that the movie A Christmas Carol will be in Disney Digital 3D!
;-P

A fourth Scream movie has been planned. Kevin Williamson the writer of the first two films, and story of the third, is working on the script of Scream 4, if all goes well, he’s even booked for a new Scream trilogy.

Scream 4 Movie in 2011

We don’t know yet if Director Wes Craven. But that’s likely knowing he’s currently in talk for the job. Besides he once stated:

“It would take it being really as good a script as the first one was, and the pay day reflects what I’ve done for that company.”

Director Wes Craven

So he wants to cash in on the franchise, that’s all right, after all, he directly contributed to its success.

Director Wes Craven may still hesitate, but it’s been confirmed that Courteney Cox, David Arquette and Nev Campbell are reprising their roles in Scream 4!

Filming of Scream 4 should begin in Summer 2010.
:)

An international trailer of Law Abiding Citizen, the upcoming action thriller movie starring Gerard Butler and Jamie Foxx, has shown up:

LAW ABIDING CITIZEN
Plot:
“After a home invasion, Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler) is told that one of the criminals who killed his wife and daughter would get off due to his cooperation with the district attorney’s office and the other would be put on death row. Shelton seeks revenge not just against the criminals but the entire justice system; he is quickly captured, but Nick Rice (Jamie Foxx), a heroic yet corrupt D.A. who got one of the murderers off, quickly realizes that prison isn’t enough to keep Shelton from killing those who kept the criminals from getting the sentence they deserved.”

One can understands the rage of Butler’s character. But that guy is nuts: not only he decides to tackle the murderers on his own, but he also wants to take down the justice system!
;-P
