Last month we saw pictures of Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg, who are teaming up in the Other Guys movie. Well, now we also have pictures of Dwayne Johnson The Rock and Samuel L Jackson:

Dwayne Johnson The Rock and Samuel L Jackson play the role of two super cops whose fame overshadows the two second-tier loser cops played by Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg:

The Other Guys is directed by Adam McKay and will be released in Summer 2010.

Rainmaker Animation is working on a movie adaptation of ReBoot, the classic CGI animated series. Actually they’re even planning a trilogy. Here below the first official teaser trailer of ReBoot the movie:

REBOOT MOVIE
Plot:
“A computer system has progressively evolved into a world filled with artificial intelligence, it is known by its inhabitants as Mainframe.”

I used to watch the original animated TV series: the first season was rather ugly, but the story was great. So I’m quite glad to hear about this Reboot movie: with the latest technologies, it’s going to be a marvelous movie! Actually, if they do it right, they could even eclipse Tron 2!

Here’s the opening of the animated series:

ReBoot the original TV Series

The movie ReBoot, first of a trilogy, should be released in 2010.

The boxer Rocky Balboa came out of retirement in Rocky 6, and it seems he doesn’t want go back to his peaceful life as restaurant owner. Sylvester Stallone told indeed that he would like to make Rocky 7! Legends never die, but time is catching up with Sylvester Stallone… I know he is still fit, but I’m not sure that over-extending the Rocky franchise is for the best…

More details at: Rocky 7 Movie Trailer

Anyway, here’s what Sylvester Stallone said about the movie Rocky 7:

“I know I’ll probably make a fool of myself if I make another Rocky film after turning 60. Even my wife says, ‘Don’t do it. You’re embarrassing the kids’. But I told her, ‘If I don’t try I’ll be a really unhappy man’.
[..]
You have to do it. Artists like me have to go through the dark over and over again.
[…]
When I was 21 years old and at drama school, my teacher said to me, ‘If you ever put your head out there, thousands of people will try to cut it off, but that’s exactly what you need to do as an artist.'”

Sylvester Stallone

Will Rocky Balboa go sci-fi and use some rejuvenation process based on stem cells so he could compete again? Or is he just going to train a young heir?

I’m not much interested in watching Rocky 7, but I must admit I’m curious how it’s gonna turn out!

Take a look to those high-res pictures of A Christmas Carol, the upcoming animated movie directed by Robert Zemeckis and withe voice of Jim Carrey as the old Scrooge:

(Click on a picture to enlarge it.)

Some of those pictures of A Christmas Carol make me think of the uncanny valley… The uncanny valley hypothesis holds that when robots and other facsimiles of humans (pictures, animation or else) look and act almost like actual humans, it causes a response of revulsion among human observers. They did put a lot of effort to make those characters look real, can’t really pinpoint it, but there is something missing…

You may watch below the first two TV spots of Twilight New Moon, aka Twilight 2:

New Moon Movie

TWILIGHT 2 NEW MOON

TWILIGHT NEW MOON

When forever ends, a new legend begins

Those two TV spots of New Moon are really well cut! It’s so intense! i think that both guys and girls could agree on Twilight New Moon that it’s a movie worth watching. Summit Entertainment was definitely right to chose Director Chris Weitz to helm this new Twilight movie.

A new series of clips of Men Who Stare At Goats, the upcoming dark comedy starring George Clooney and Jeff bridges, has been released:

Bill (Jeff Bridges) lectures the New Earth Army on the importance of being the first superpower with superpowers.

Men who stare at goats – Choke Me
Lyn (George Clooney) supposedly gets inside Bob’s (Ewan McGregor) head to deflect an attack.
Plot:
“A reporter in Iraq might just have the story of a lifetime when he meets Lyn Cassady, a guy who claims to be a former member of the U.S. Army’s First Earth Battalion, a unit that employs paranormal powers in their missions.”

More clips of Men Who Stare At Goats below: Continue reading »

Two official preview clips of gentlemen Broncos have shown up online:

GENTLEMEN BRONCOS – And it becomes magical!

GENTLEMEN BRONCOS – You stole my story!
Plot:
“Benjamin (Michael Angarano), home-schooled by his eccentric mother (Jennifer Coolidge), is a loveable loner whose passion for writing leads him on an offbeat and hilarious journey as his story first gets ripped off by the legendary fantasy novelist, Ronald Chevalier (Jemaine Clement) and then is adapted into a disastrous movie by the small town’s most prolific homespun filmmaker.”

Ronal Chevalier (Jemaine Clement) is such a jerk for stealing a young sci-fi fan!

The first 8 minutes of the new V series that will start to air on ABC on November 3, 2009 have been released just to tease us all:

Plot:
“Simultaneously appearing over every major city in the world, the Visitors (or V’s) promote a message of peace. Through their generous offer to share advanced technology, the V’s build a following that may actually hide a more malevolent agenda, one that twists a very deep component of human nature — devotion. While the world quickly becomes fascinated with the V’s and their link to wonders just beyond the reach of human understanding, FBI Counter Terrorist Agent Erica Evans (Elizabeth Mitchell) discovers a secret hidden beneath the skin of every V – a secret that may threaten the lives of everyone close to her.
Yet for her teenage son, Tyler (Logan Huffman), the V’s are his ticket to something big and hopeful-a new chance for mankind to unite in common goals. To Chad Decker (Scott Wolf), a career-hungry news anchor, his exclusive interview with Anna (Morena Baccarin), the leader of the V’s, is crucial to his dominating the airwaves. Also unsure about the Visitors is Father Jack (Joel Gretsch), a priest questioning his faith in the wake of the Visitors’ arrival. Seeking answers outside the church, Father Jack discovers there are other dissidents who believe the Visitors are not who they say they are, including Ryan Nichols (Morris Chestnut), who is faced with his own life-altering decision when the V’s show up. Never has there been more at stake — it truly is the dawning of a new day.”

I’m definitely impatient to watch this re-imagining of the 1980’s V series. Can’t have enough of sci-fi shows!
:)

A first official clip of the Fourth kind has been released:

The fourth Kind – It was too strong
The Fourth Kind is a “fact-based” thriller directed by Olatunde Osunsanmi. Milla Jovovich plays Dr. Abigail Tyler, a psychotherapist based in Nome, Alaka: Tyler’s videotaped sessions with her patients offer the most compelling evidence of alien abduction ever documented.

Just that short clip of the Fourth Kind is enough to freak me out…I’m gonna cover my head with aluminum foil right away to prevent aliens from reading my mind if they ever happen to abduct my precious self!
;-)

An official picture of the whole A-Team has been unveiled. The pic was photoshopped by the marketing team to look like the original team, So here they are, Bradley Cooper as Lt. Templeton Faceman Peck, Liam Neeson as Col John Hannibal Smith, Sharlto Copley as Capt. Howling Mad Murdock, and Quinton Rampage Jackson as Sgt Bosco B.A. Baracus:

There’s even in the background of the picture: it’s enough for a fan of the A-Team to feel some nostalgia and to get interested in this new A-Team movie!
