About Duke:

Duke is the code name of First Sergeant Conrad S. Hauser. He is field commander and second-in-command of the G.I. Joe Team after Hawk. He is one of the key characters of G.I. Joe and a fan-favorite. He is generally regarded by fans as a main character, despite not appearing in the comic series for a number of issues, nor was he one of the very first wave of original toys.

Much better poster than the bluish version they released earlier, but it still looks kind of cheap…

Movies Coming Out This Week

Recent trailers and clips

Star Trek 2 Movie

Star Trek IIScriptwritter Roberto Orci talked about Star Trek 2 during an interview given to SciFi (here):

Roberto orci

“I think the major lesson we learned is that fans were willing to accept differences and surprises, provided that they were somehow echoes or inspired by canon. We still have to be true to Star Trek the next time around, but we’ve also been blessed with being able to be unpredictable. And that doesn’t mean we can just be shocking for no good reason and just throw everything away. … It still has to echo everything that Star Trek has been.
[…]
We have agreed to write another one. We’re going to start thinking about it any second now. But we’re still just having a mental sorbet before we jump back in. And, you know, just seeing all the reactions to the movie. We want to make sure we take it all in and really figure out what worked and what didn’t and proceed from there. But now that we have… an open canvas, … anything can happen.”

Scriptwriter Roberto Orci

It sounds like like Orci feels he has more freedom than before thanks to the success of the first film. Good then! because I definitely want him and Alex Kurtzman to explore their own take on the Star trek franchise!

I definitely accept to say goodbye to grandfather’s Star Trek. I hope that the movie Star Trek 2 will keep rejuvenating the show canons and boldly go beyond!

Brad Pitt’s moustache on this poster of Inglourious Basterds looks quite good, but George Clooney’s in Men Who Stare at Goats looks much better.

The Proposal Preview Clips

The ProposalNowadays a girl does not have to wait for her boyfriend to propose her: she can propose him first indeed!

Below some more preview clips of the upcoming romantic comedy movie The Proposal:


We are going to Alaska
Margaret (Sandra Bullock) and Andrew (Ryan Reynolds) talk to the INS.

Plot:
“Sandra Bullock stars as a book editor, who forces her assistant Ryan Reynolds to marry her in order to avoid being deported to Canada. When the government investigates, she and her assistant are forced to spend the weekend with his parents in order to sell the lie.”

You think that this INS agent is nosy, just imagine how it is with an agent from the IRS… Believe me: much worse!

More Proposal preview clips are waiting for you below: Continue reading »

Sherlock Holmes and Irene Adler

Sherlock Holmes and Irene AdlerTwo new pictures of Sherlock Holmes, Guy Ritchie’s take on the famous detective create by Conan Doyle:

Sherlock Holmes Trailer

Rachel McAdams plays the role of Irene Adler, a femme fatale from New Jersey who once outwitted Holmes, earning his grudging respect. In the film, Adler is no longer married to Godfrey Norton and needs Holmes’ help for the case. Downey convinced Ritchie to cast McAdams, arguing she would not look too young to be his love interest.

No direct link between those two pictures, but I can but think of R. Kelly song: Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) is gonna stick his key in Irene Adler’s ignition (Rachel McAdams)!
;-P

Hellboy 3 Movie

Director Guillermo del Toro is busy for now with the Hobbit but he still intends to make a Hellboy 3 movie:

More information at: Hellboy 3 Movie Trailer

“Don’t tell my family, but I would love to do Hellboy 3 consecutive to the Hobbit. The first movie was 2004, the second movie is 2008 so if the third movie is 2012, 2013, it’s not that far off.”

Guilermo del Toro

And from what he said to SciFi, Hellboy 3 would be the last for him:

“If there was ever a third one, I would really make sure that we at least sign a contract that there is no more. No prequels and no sequels: nothing. If that happens, then there is a third one we have planned, and the seeds are planted in this film.”

Guilermo del Toro

Then if the movie Hellboy 3 is going to be the last one of the series, I hope that it will be about the final apocalypse that Hellboy is supposed to bring upon us hence fulfilling the dark prophecy of the second movie.

Whiteout Trailer

WhiteoutYou may watch below the first trailer of Whiteout, an upcoming thriller movie directed by and starring Kate Beckinsale and Gabriel Macht:

Whiteout Movie Trailer


WHITEOUT

The most isolated landmass on the planet,
No official government,
No permanent population…

Temperature: 120 Below zero
Wind speed: 200 miles per hour

No horizon! No Shadows!

There is only White…


Plot:
“A U.S. marshal (Kate Beckinsale), the only one assigned to Antarctica, must investigate a murder on the frozen continent within three days before the arctic winter begins. She crosses paths with a U.N. operative (Gabriel Macht), also investigating the murder.”

The movie Whiteout is an adaptation of the 1999 comic book of the same name by writer Greg Rucka and artist Steve Lieber. In the comic book the crime is just an excuse to show how harsh Antarctica can be: The frozen continent is all white, it’s no paradise, it’s like hell!

Judging from the movie trailer of Whiteout it seems that Dominic Sena’s take is faithful to to the source material and still manage. That’s probably why Greg Rucka himself applauds this film adaptation.

The movie Whiteout will be released on September 11, 2009.

Indiana Jones 5 Movie

Indiana Jones 5 MovieLooks like a fifth Indiana Jones movie is being planned. Actor Shia Labeouf hinted at Indiana Jones 5 during an interview given to the BBC (here):

“Steven Spielberg just said that he cracked the story on it before I left and I think they’re gearing that up.”

I suppose that this Indiana Jones 5 movie would focus more on Shia Labeouf, the previous movie clearly made him the legitimate heir to Harrison Ford.

The Proposal Clip

The ProposalHere below an extended clip of The Proposal, an upcoming romantic comedy starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds:


When faced with the prospect of deportation, Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) ropes her assistant Andrew (Ryan Reynolds) into a fake engagement.

I like Ryan Reynolds’ smile at the end of this extended clip of The Proposal: I hope to see this little snarky smile in the upcoming Deadpool movie.

By the way The Proposal is released this week in theaters.

Shrek Forever After Movie

Plot:
“Shrek (Mike Myers) has become a domesticated family man. Instead of scaring villagers away like he used to, a reluctant Shrek now agrees to autograph pitch forks. Longing for the days when he felt like a “real ogre,” Shrek is tricked into signing a pact with the smooth-talking dealmaker, Rumpelstiltskin. Shrek suddenly finds himself in a twisted, alternate version of Far Far Away, where ogres are hunted, Rumplestiltskin is king and Shrek and Fiona (Cameron Diaz) have never met. Now, it’s up to Shrek to undo all of Rumpelstiltskin’s mischief in the hopes of saving his friends, restoring his world and reclaiming his one True Love and family.”

The movie Shrek 4, aka Shrek Forever After, will be directed by Mike Mitchell and is set for a release in may 2010.

I am not impatient at all to watch the movie Shrek 4 but my kids kind of like the green ogre’s fart jokes… Think twice before having kids!

GI Joe Bluish Poster

The marketing team promoting GI-Joe is either lazy or running out of ideas… Here’s the ‘new’ bluish poster of GI Joe:

Hearing some negative buzz about the movie GI Joe, it may explain why the studios aren’t investing more to promote the movie if they think it’s going to be a flop…
